Programmable Charging
Important Information About
Portable Electric Vehicle Charging
.Charging an electric vehicle can
stress a building’s electrical
system more than a typical
household appliance.
.Before you plug in to any
electrical outlet, have a qualified
electrician inspect and verify the
electrical system (electrical
outlet, wiring, junctions, and
protection devices) for
heavy-duty service at a 12 amp
continuous load.
.Electrical outlets may wear out
with normal usage or be
damaged over time, making
them unsuitable for electric
vehicle charging.
.Check the electrical outlet/plug
while charging and discontinue
use if the electrical outlet/plug is
hot, then have the electrical
outlet serviced by a qualified
electrician.
.When outdoors, plug into an
electrical outlet that is
weather-proof while in use.
.Mount the charging cord to
reduce strain on the electrical
outlet/plug.
{Warning
Improper use of portable electric
vehicle charge cords may cause
a fire, electrical shock, or burns,
and may result in damage to
property, serious injury, or death.
.Do not use extension cords,
multi-outlet power strips,
splitters, grounding adaptors,
surge protectors, or similar
devices.
.Do not use an electrical outlet
that is worn or damaged,
or one that will not hold the
plug firmly in place.
.Do not use an electrical outlet
that is not properly grounded.
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
.Do not use an electrical outlet
that is on a circuit with other
electrical loads.
See the charge cord user guide.

(available in select regions).
.There was an unintended loss of
AC power during the plug-in
charge event. For example,
there was a power outage or the
charge cord was unplugged from
the wall.
.The charge process was
interrupted by the utility
company via OnStar as
authorized by the vehicle owner
(available in select regions).
