Interruption Of Charging By The Electricity Supplier; Electrical Requirements For Battery Charging - Chevrolet 2013 VOLT Owner's Manual

Adapters
WARNING
Using damaged adapters or
adapters not designed for use
with the charge cable may
increase the risk of electric shock
or start a fire. Only use adapters
that have been designed to be
used with the charge cable. Do
not use a damaged adapter.
An adapter kit may be included to
allow use of your charge cable in
multiple countries in central Europe.
When using an adapter make sure
the charge level selected is
appropriate for your supply circuit.
See the reference card included in
the adapter kit.
Interruption of Charging
by the Electricity Supplier
When electrical grid power is
completely blocked, the vehicle will
delay charging until the supply
interruption has expired. The vehicle
should be left plugged in so that,
when the supply interruption
expires, the vehicle can
automatically begin charging.
Changing the charge mode to
Immediate or performing a delayed
charging override will not disable a
supplier initiated interruption.
A pop-up will be displayed in the
centre console display during the
key cycle following any electricity
supply interruption. See Charge
Override/Interruption Pop-up under
Charging on page 5 27.
Text will be displayed on the
instrument cluster notifying the
customer that an electricity supply
interruption has occurred. See
Instrument Cluster on page 5 6.
Driving and Operating
Electrical Requirements
for Battery Charging
The AC socket must have a
grounded, dedicated wall socket.
That means there should be no
other major appliances connected to
the same circuit. If it is not a
dedicated circuit, the current rating
of the outlet circuit breaker could be
exceeded and cause it to trip or
open. The vehicle can be charged in
the reduced level mode. See
Charge Level Selection under
Charging on page 5 27. Reduced
level mode allows a non-dedicated
circuit to be used but increases the
charging time.
This vehicle is capable of being
charged with standard vehicle
charging equipment complying to:
SAE J1772
IEC 61851-1
IEC 61851-22
IEC 62196-1
IEC 62196-2
