• Key On (12 Volt ON and High Voltage OFF) or READY mode (12 Volt ON and High
Voltage ON).
• Vehicle speed is below 2 mph (3 km/h).
NOTE:
Auto Park is disabled above 2 mph (3 km/h) and transmission range will be maintained.

ELECTRIC SYSTEM OPERATION
Level 1 Charging (120V — Requires NEMA 5–15 Outlet)
•Level 1 charging is done by using a conventional 120 Volt AC (Alternating Current)
grounded receptacle along with the NEMA 5–15 Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment
(EVSE) that comes standard with your vehicle .Refer to “Vehicle Charging Cord” for
further information.
Level 2 Charging (240V — Requires A 40 Amp Circuit Breaker Or Greater)
• Level 2 charging is accomplished by using
a 240V permanently mounted EVSE and
is the preferred method for charging your
vehicle .
• A Level 2 charging station can be installed
at your residence .
• The Level 2 unit and installation service is
available for purchase at your authorized
studio .
Charge Times
Type of Charge Approximate Time
Level 1 (120V/15A)Approximately 23 hours to fully recharge
* 3 hours will restore 10 miles of range *
Level 2 (240V/30A)Approximately 4 hours to fully recharge
* 30 minutes will restore 10 miles of range *
The following factors determine how long a battery recharge will take:
• The battery’s current state of charge (percent depleted)
• What recharging device is being used (Level 1 or Level 2)
• Ambient temperatures
NOTE:
• Charging times are estimates based on a completely discharged high voltage battery pack .
• Charging times will vary based on the age, condition state of charge and temperature of
the high voltage battery pack .

EVSE Operation And Status Information
IndicatorDescription
1 — AC Indicator LED Green indicates READY
RED Indicates a fault
2 — Fault Indicator LED Green indicates READY
RED indicates a fault
3 — Charge Level Indicator LED's All ON indicates system ready and not charging
LED's turning on and off in sequence indicates
vehicle charging
• When the EVSE is first plugged in it will go through an initialization and self test. For the
first three seconds after plugging in your EVSE all the LED's will remain off.
• After approximately three seconds the EVSE performs an internal self test and Ground
Continuity Test. This process takes approximately six seconds.
• During the internal self test the unit turns on one Charge Level Indicator LED every
1.5 seconds until all the Charge Level Indicator LED's are illuminated.
