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 plugging into 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 may 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
weatherproof while in use. .
Mount the charge cord to reduce
strain on the electrical
outlet/plug.
. Do not place the charge cord in
a position where it is expected to
be submerged in water.
{Danger
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 will not hold
the plug firmly in place.
. Do not use an electrical
outlet that is not properly
grounded.
(Continued)
Danger (Continued)
.Do not use an electrical
outlet that is on a circuit with
other electrical loads.
Charge Cord Status Indicators
See Charge Cord 0239.
Charge Level Selection
Charge level selection can be made
using the Charge Mode tab on the
Charging screen on the infotainment
display. See “Charge Limit
Selection” underProgrammable
Charging 0124.
{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 the
electrical circuit capacity. Use the

Performance and
Maintenance
Traction Control/
Electronic Stability
Control
The Traction Control System (TCS)
limits wheel spin. The system turns
on automatically every time the
vehicle is powered up.
The Electronic Stability Control
system called StabiliTrak assists
with directional control of the vehicle
in difficult driving conditions. The
system turns on automatically every
time the vehicle is on.
.To turn off TCS, press and
release
g, on the center stack.
iilluminates and the
appropriate Driver Information
Center (DIC) message is
displayed. See Ride Control
System Messages 0140.
. To turn off both TCS and
StabiliTrak, press and hold
g,
until
iandgcome on and stay on in the instrument cluster and
the appropriate DIC message is
displayed. See
Ride Control
System Messages 0140.
. Press and release
gto turn on
both systems.
See Traction Control/Electronic
Stability Control 0213.
Tire Pressure Monitor
This vehicle may have a Tire
Pressure Monitor System (TPMS).
The low tire pressure warning light
alerts to a significant loss in
pressure of one of the vehicle's
tires. If the warning light comes on,
stop as soon as possible and inflate
the tires to the recommended
pressure shown on the Tire and
Loading Information label. See Vehicle Load Limits
0197. The
warning light will remain on until the
tire pressure is corrected.
The low tire pressure warning light
may come on in cool weather when
the vehicle is first started, and then
turn off as the vehicle is driven. This
may be an early indicator that the
tire pressures are getting low and
the tires need to be inflated to the
proper pressure.
The TPMS does not replace normal
monthly tire maintenance. Maintain
the correct tire pressures.
See Tire Pressure Monitor System
0 277.
Driving for Better Energy
Efficiency
Use the following tips to help
maximize energy efficiency and
range.
In colder temperatures, while these
efficiency tips will help, the electric
vehicle driving range may be lower
due to higher energy usage.

Remote No Longer In Vehicle Alert
If the vehicle is on, with a door
open, and then all doors are closed,
the vehicle will check for RKE
transmitter(s) inside. If an RKE
transmitter is not detected, the DIC
will display NO REMOTE
DETECTED and the horn will chirp
three times.
This occurs only once each time the
vehicle is driven.
SeeVehicle Personalization 0142.
Keyless Liftgate Opening
Press the touch pad on the
underside of the liftgate glass and
lift up to open if the RKE transmitter
is within 1 m (3 ft) and the doors are

the transmitter is not required to
open the liftgate. See Liftgate046.
Keyed Access
To access a vehicle with a weak
transmitter battery, see Door Locks
0 41.Programming Transmitters to
the Vehicle
Only RKE transmitters programmed
to the vehicle will work. If a
transmitter is lost or stolen, a
replacement can be purchased and
programmed through your dealer.
The vehicle can be reprogrammed
so that lost or stolen transmitters no
longer work. Any remaining
transmitters will need to be
reprogrammed. Each vehicle can
have up to eight transmitters
matched to it.
Programming with Two
Recognized Transmitters
A new transmitter can be
programmed to the vehicle when
