scheduled departure time. Use the
Latest setting to optimize energy
usage.
Charge Rate Preference Selection
From the Charge Rate Information
screen, touch Charge Rate Preference.
Touch one of the following options to
select the Charge Rate Preference:
.Charge during Peak, Mid-Peak, and
Off-Peak Rates: The vehicle can
charge during any rate period to
satisfy the next planned departure
time. However, it will select when
to charge to minimize the total
cost of the charge.
. Charge during Mid-Peak and
Off-Peak Rates: The vehicle will
charge during Off-Peak and/or Mid-Peak rate periods only and
will select when to charge to
minimize the total cost of the
charge.
. Charge during Off-Peak Rates: The
vehicle will only charge during
Off-Peak rate periods.
Charging begins at the start time and
is complete by the departure time
only if sufficient time is allowed after
the charge cord is plugged in. For
example, if the vehicle is plugged in
for only one hour prior to the
departure time, and the battery is
completely discharged, the vehicle will
not be fully charged by the departure
time regardless of the rate selection.
Also, if the selected electric rate
settings result in a very long charge
completion time, the vehicle will start
charging immediately upon plug-in.
For example, if the electric rate table
is set up with all Peak rates and the
rate preference is to charge during
Off-Peak rates only, then the vehicle
will start charging immediately upon
plug-in. Electric Rate Plan Selection
Electric rates, or cost per unit, may
vary based on time, weekday/weekend,
and season. During the day when the
demand for electricity is high, the
rates are usually higher and called
Peak rates. At night when the demand
for electricity is low, the rates are
usually lower and called Off-Peak
rates. In some areas, a Mid-Peak rate
is offered.
Contact the utility company to obtain
the rate schedule for your area. The
summer and winter start dates must
be established to use a summer/winter
schedule.
From the Charge Rate Information
screen, touch Electric Rate Schedule.
