DRIVING AND OPERATING 285
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 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
infotainment display during the key
cycle following any utility
interruption. See“Charging
Interrupted or Overridden Pop-Up ”
under Programmable Charging
(PLUG-IN Only) 0152.
A message will display on the
instrument cluster indicating that a
utility interruption has occurred.
See Instrument Cluster (Base Level)
0 127 orInstrument Cluster (Uplevel)
0 130.Charging Station
Troubleshooting
If the vehicle does not charge after
being plugged in to a residential
240-volt charging station:
1. Verify that the charge mode is set to Immediate.
2. Verify that the charging station’s circuit breaker has not been
tripped.
3. Plug the portable charge cord into the wall outlet, verify that
the indicator light on the charge
cord is solid green, and connect
it to the vehicle. See “Charge
Cord Status Indicators ”in Charge
Cord (PLUG-IN Only) 0279.
4. If the vehicle charges with the portable charge cord, there may
be a problem with the charging
station. Try to charge the vehicle
with a different 240-volt charging
station, such as a public station.
If both attempts charge the
vehicle, contact the charging
station manufacturer.
