CHARGING

START CHARGING

The provided 120-volt portable charge cord is located under the storage floor in the
cargo area and can be used to charge the vehicle when a 240V charging station is not
available.
1. With the vehicle parked, turn off the vehi-
cle and select the Charging button at the
bottom of the Energy Summary screen.
2. Review the selected Charge Mode and
Charge Limit. Select the Charge Limit
toggle button if an increased charging
limit is desired. Use the 8-amp charge
limit until a qualified electrician inspects
your home's electrical circuit capacity, or
if the electrical circuit or outlet capacity is not known.
Note: The charge level selection returns to the 8-amp setting each time the vehicle is driven.
3. Plug the charge cord into an electrical
outlet. DO NOT PLUG INTO AN EXTENSION
CORD. Charge cord indicators should be
green. Where possible, secure the charge
cord to the wall.
4. Press and release the rear edge of the
charge port door, located just in front of
the driver's door, to open it. Plug the charge
cord into the charge port.
5. The Charging Status indicator on top of
the instrument panel will illuminate green
and the horn will chirp when properly
connected.
Note: To change the horn chirp setting, go to Energy
> Charging Options.
6. Periodically check the electrical outlet/
plug while charging. Discontinue use if the
electrical outlet/plug is hot and have the
electrical outlet serviced by a qualified
electrician.
To arm the charge cord theft alert, lock the vehicle twice with the Remote Keyless Entry
transmitter.
Note: When the theft alert is armed, the alarm will sound when the plug is disconnected from the
vehicle. To change charge cord theft alert options, go to Energy > Charging Options.
To temporarily override a delayed charge event, remove and reconnect the charge
cord to the vehicle within 5 seconds. It will begin charging immediately.
