2017 CHRYSLER PACIFICA HYBRID Owners Manual

When using public charging stations, ensure the charging
station is ready to provide charge and the vehicle is in
PARK before the charge connector is plugged into the
vehicle’s charge inlet. You will hear a “click” when the
charge connector is inserted correctly and is coupled with
the vehicle’s charge inlet. The vehicle should start charging
automatically. If not, please check the instructions at the
charging station.
NOTE:The vehicle should start charging automatically. If
not, please check the following:
• Charging Station – Check the indications and instruc-
tions at the charging station or
• Charging Schedule – Check whether the charging sched-
ule is enabled and if so, whether the vehicle is currently
within the scheduled charge time/date. If the charging
schedule is enabled within the vehicle, you may over-
ride them for this charging event by plugging in the
charge connector, unplugging it, and then plugging it
back into the vehicle charge inlet. Complete the double
plug sequence within 10 seconds for it to override the set
schedule. To stop the charging process:
•
Press the “STOP” button located on the front of the
EVSE station.
• Press the button on the charge connector first and then
remove the connector from the vehicle charge inlet
• Plug the charge handle into the EVSE station and coil the
charging cord onto its holder. Do not leave the charging
cord laying on the ground.
Charging Times
The following factors determine the time it takes to charge
the high voltage battery:
• The high voltage battery’s current state of charge
• The type of EVSE used (Level 1 - 120V or Level 2 – 240V)
• Ambient temperature
• Whether the vehicle is ON during charging

NOTE:
•The charging times below are estimates based on a
completely discharged high voltage battery
• Charging times will vary based on the age, condition,
state of charge and temperature of the high voltage
battery.
• Charging times may be longer if a thermal self-
protection reduces the charging current from the EVSE.
• If the vehicle’s ignition is in either the ACC or RUN
position, the vehicle charge indicator may not indicate
greater than a 99% state of charge, and will continue to
charge the vehicle, due to the vehicle loads.
Type of EVSE Estimated Charge Time
Level 1 (120V/12A) Approximately 14 hours
Level 2 (240V/30A) Approximately 2 hours
Vehicle Charge Indicators
Instrument Cluster High Voltage Battery Gauge
There is a battery gauge indicator located on the instru-
ment cluster. The battery gauge will display the current
state of charge for the high voltage battery; with the
percentage value located to the left of the symbol.
High Voltage Battery Gauge
32 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

Instrument Panel State Of Charge Indicator
In addition to the battery gauge your vehicle is equipped
with a visual state of charge indicator. The state of charge
indicator is made up of five lights that are mounted to the
top center of the instrument panel, which will illuminate
when the vehicle is plugged into the EVSE.The state of charge indicator represents the current state of
charge for the high voltage battery and if there is a fault
with the charging system. The state of charge indicator
illuminates quickly to provide the charging system status
to the vehicle operator . Each light represents the battery’s
current percentage of charge, as shown below in the table.
The charge indicator will illuminate from left to right one
light at a time to indicate that there is a scheduled charge
enabled.
NOTE:
The lights scroll one at a time when the vehicle is
plugged in outside of its charging schedule time/date, and
it is waiting on the schedule to begin charging.

Hybrid Electric Pages
Within your Uconnect 8.4/8.4 NAV radio is the “Hybrid
Electric” App that allows you to see your vehicle’s power
flow, understand your drive history, and set a charging
schedule for your vehicle’s battery. To access this app, press
the “Apps” button on the main menu bar of the radio’s
touch screen, and locate the “Hybrid Electric” App. Press-
ing the “Hybrid Electric” App will bring you to a set of
three pages, Power Flow, Driving History, and Charging
Schedule, that are all related to your hybrid vehicle’s
battery performance.
Hybrid Electric App Location
34 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

Power Flow
The first screen within the “Hybrid Electric App” is the
Power Flow screen. The Power Flow screen shows the
current power readings for all of the following:
•Engine - Shows the amount of power (in kW) the engine
is generating to charge the high voltage battery, or
providing to the drive wheels.
• Electric - Shows the amount of power (in kW) the battery
is currently providing/absorbing.
• Climate - Shows the amount of power (in kW) the
climate control system is using to maintain the current
interior temperature. Power Flow paths are indicated by the direction of the
arrows on the touchscreen.
Driving History
The second screen with the “Hybrid Electric” App is the
Driving History screen. The Driving History screen shows
the miles driven in both Full Electric and Hybrid modes for
both the previous week and the current week. The data is
displayed in two bar graphs, side by side.

NOTE:The teal color represents the data while under
Electric power and the blue color represents the data while
under Hybrid power.
Charging Schedule
The third screen within the “Hybrid Electric” App is the
Charging Schedule screen. From this screen you can set
when you want you vehicle to charge. To do so, press the
check box next to the setting “Enable Schedule” until a
check mark appears in the box, from there you can set the
schedule. The Charging Schedule can also be set using the
Uconnect App on your smartphone.

NOTE:If the vehicle is plugged in outside of the charging
schedule set in the Uconnect 8.4 radio, the vehicle’s battery
will not charge. Charging will only begin immediately if
the vehicle is plugged in within the time and date set in the
schedule. Otherwise, charging will automatically begin
when the selected charge time/date occurs.
This feature can be overridden if the vehicle is plugged in,
unplugged, and then plugged in a second time. This
“double plugged-in” feature will override the schedule
that is set in the radio, and begin charging the vehicle
immediately. The double plug sequence must be completed
within 10 seconds for it to override the programed sched-
ule.
If the vehicle is turned off outside of the charging window
a radio pop-up message will be displayed, that allows the
user to charge it immediately. If “Yes” is selected, the
vehicle will begin charging immediately, ignoring the
charge schedule, if plugged in within an hour of turning
the vehicle off.KEYS
The keyless ignition system consists of a key fob with a
built in emergency key and a Keyless Push Button Ignition
system.
Key Fob
This system allows you to lock or unlock the doors and
liftgate, and activate the Panic Alarm, optional power
liftgate, left power sliding door, and right power sliding
door from distances up to approximately 66 ft (20 m) using
a hand-held key fob. The key fob does not need to be
pointed at the vehicle to activate the system.

NOTE:The emergency key allows for entry into the
vehicle should the battery in the vehicle or the key fob go
dead. The emergency key is also for locking/unlocking the
glove compartment. You can keep the emergency key with
you when valet parking.
