Charge Level Selection
Charge level selection can be made
using the Charge Level Preference
setting on the center stack. See
“Charge Level Selection”under
Programmable Charging on
page 5-31.
{Warning
Using a charge level that exceeds
the electrical circuit or electrical
outlet capacity may start a fire or
damage the electrical circuit. Use
the lowest charge level until a
qualified electrician inspects your
electrical circuit capacity. Use the
lowest charge level if the
electrical circuit or electrical outlet
capacity is not known.
Utility Interruption of
Charging
For participating customers using
AC charging, this vehicle will
respond to remote requests via OnStar to limit or completely block
electrical power grid usage for brief
time periods. A utility interruption of
charging may increase AC vehicle
charge times, but will not affect DC
charge times.
When electrical grid power is
completely blocked, the vehicle will
delay charging until the utility
interruption has expired. The vehicle
should be left plugged in so that,
when the utility interruption expires,
the vehicle can automatically begin
charging.
Changing the charge mode to
Immediate or performing a delayed
charging override will not disable a
utility interruption.
A pop-up will appear in the center
stack display during the key cycle
following any utility interruption. See
“Charging Override/Interruption
Pop-up”
underProgrammable
Charging on page 5-31. Text will be displayed on the
instrument cluster indicating that a
utility interruption has occurred. See
Instrument Cluster on page 5-9.

your vehicle is in a place where
OnStar has an agreement with a
wireless service provider for service
in that area, and the wireless
service provider has coverage,
network capacity, reception, and
technology compatible with OnStar
service. Service involving location
information about the vehicle cannot
work unless GPS signals are
available, unobstructed, and
compatible with the OnStar
hardware. OnStar service may not
work if the OnStar equipment is not
properly installed or it has not been
properly maintained. If equipment or
software is added, connected,
or modified, OnStar service may not
work. Other problems beyond the
control of OnStar may preventservice such as hills, tall buildings,
tunnels, weather, electrical system
design and architecture of the
vehicle, damage to the vehicle in a
