Utility Rate Charging
The vehicle estimates the charging start
time based on the utility rate schedule,
utility rate preference, and programmed
departure time for the current day of the
week. The vehicle will charge during the
least expensive rate periods to achieve a full
battery charge by the departure time. Utility
rate information from the utility company
for the charging location is required for
this mode.
Select one of the following:
Charge Rate Preference
Touch one of the following options to select
the Charge Rate Preference:
Off-Peak Only: The vehicle will only
.
charge during Off-Peak rate periods.
Mid-Peak, Off-Peak: The vehicle will
.
charge during Off-Peak and/or Mid-Peak
rate periods only and will select when to
charge to minimize the total cost of the
charge.
Peak, Mid-Peak, Off-Peak: The vehicle can
.
charge during any rate period to satisfy
the next planned departure time.
However, it will select when to charge to
minimize the total cost of the charge.
Charging begins at the start time and is
complete by the departure time only if
sufficient time is allowed after the charge
cord is plugged in. For example, if the
vehicle is plugged in for only one hour prior
to the departure time, and the battery is
completely discharged, the vehicle will not
be fully charged by the departure time
regardless of the rate selection.
Also, if the selected utility rate settings
result in a very long charge completion
time, the vehicle will start charging
immediately upon plug-in. For example,
if the utility rate table is set up with all
Peak rates and the rate preference is to
Instruments and Controls
charge during Off-Peak rates only, then the
vehicle will start charging immediately upon
plug-in.
Charge Completion
When the cost would be the same, based on
utility rates, the earliest or latest possible
time for a charge to complete can be
selected. For example, if Off-Peak charge
time is 12 am to 6 am and only three hours
of charge are needed, Earliest Possible would
start charging at 12 am and Latest Possible
would start charging at 3 am. Use the
Earliest Possible setting to charge as soon as
possible. Use the Latest Possible setting to
optimize energy usage.
To edit the Charge Completion:
1. From the Utility Rate Charging screen,
touch Charge Completion.
2. Select Earliest Possible or Latest Possible.
