Charge Port
The charge port is located between the
front left-hand side door and the front
left-hand side wheel well. Press the
indentation on the charge port door to
open and close it.
Note:
Do not force the charge port door
open or closed. Forcing the door open or
closed damages the charge port.
You can modify the light ring illumination
settings. The light ring located around the
charge port indicates the charge status of
the high voltage battery in your vehicle.
Divided into four quadrants, the charge
port light ring displays the state of charge
in 25 percent increments.
You can press the unlock button on your
key fob to view the charge status of your
vehicle. Based on which quadrants light,
you can determine the current state of
charge. If the charge is below 25 percent,
the light ring does not light. Do not forget
to press the lock button on your key fob to
re-lock your vehicle.
The light ring also displays the current
state of charge when opening the doors. The cord acknowledgment feature
activates when you initiate a charge cycle.
The four light quadrants each individually
flash in a clockwise motion, starting with
the top right-hand side light and ending
with the top left-hand side, two times
confirming that the system detects the
charging coupler.

Note:
Your vehicle must be in park (P) to
charge.
To charge your high voltage battery:
1. Put your vehicle in park (P) and switch
off your vehicle.
2. Press the indentation on the charge port door to open it.
3. Plug the charging coupler into the charge port on your vehicle. Make sure
the button clicks confirming you have
completely engaged the coupler. 4. Verify that the cord acknowledgment
feature activates. The cord
acknowledgment feature activates
when you initiate a charge cycle.

station to begin the charging process.
