Driving and operating

Charging

This section explains the process of
charging the vehicle's high voltage
battery. Do not allow the vehicle to
remain in places with extremes of
temperature for long periods without
being driven or plugged in.
The vehicle must be plugged in when
the temperatures are below -25° C to
operate properly and to maximise
high voltage battery life.
However, we recommend plugging in
the vehicle when temperatures drop
below 0° C or raise above 32° C.
The charging system may run fans
and pumps resulting in noises coming
from the vehicle while it is turned off.
Additional clicking sounds may be
caused by the electrical devices used
while charging.
While the charge cord is plugged into
the vehicle, the vehicle cannot be
driven.
