Programmable Charging
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 in to 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 10 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.

Danger (Continued)
.Do not use an electrical
outlet that is not properly
grounded.
. Do not use an electrical
outlet that is on a circuit with
other electrical loads.

Programmable Charging
Modes
To view the current charge mode
status in the infotainment display,
touch Energy and then touch
Charging.
The charge Start and charge
Complete time estimations are also
displayed. These estimations are
most accurate when the vehicle is
plugged in and in moderate
temperature conditions. Also, to get
an accurate time estimate, the
vehicle uses an internal clock for
Programmable Charging, not the
clock in the center stack. Charge Mode Selection
Immediate :
The vehicle starts
charging as soon as it is connected
to an electrical outlet. This may be
the only mode available at public
DC charging stations. See Plug-In
Charging 0237.
Departure : The vehicle will
schedule charging to complete by
the programmed departure time.
The vehicle estimates the charging
schedule based on programmed
departure times, charge rate limits,
electric rate preference and
schedule, and priority charging
settings. If there is not sufficient
time after the charge cord is
plugged in, the vehicle will not be
fully charged by the departure time.
Departure Time Entry
The Departure charge mode allows
for the departure time to be entered
to match your personal schedule.
1. With Departure charge mode selected, touch Edit.

3. Touch +or -to change the
hours and minutes.
4. Touch
yorzto change AM
or PM.
5. Touch
0to exit the screen.
Charge Limit Selection
The Charge Limit setting allows the
vehicle’s charge current to be
selected so it matches the capability
of the charging location. If the
vehicle consistently stops charging
after plugging in, or if a circuit
breaker continues to trip, reducing
to a lower Charge Limit setting may
resolve the issue.
The Charge Limit setting should be
configured to match the electrical
current rating for the electrical outlet
that the charge cord is connected
to. When the vehicle is plugged in using the portable charge cord, on
the Charge Mode tab, toggle the
Charge Limit selection between:
.
12 amps
. 8 amps
Exact current levels may vary from
the values shown in this manual.
Check the vehicle for the current
available levels. When the vehicle is
plugged into a charging station, the
Charge Limit option on the Charge
Mode tab will not be available.
The Charge Limit can be changed
and saved using Location Based
Charging settings. The default value
is the lower current limit. The
Charge Limit will reset to the lower
value when the vehicle is shifted
from P (Park) unless the Location
Based Charging feature is active
and set to retain this preference.
See “Location Based Charging” later
in this section.
{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
lowest charge level if the
electrical circuit or electrical outlet
capacity is not known.
Electric Rate Preference
The vehicle estimates the charging
start time based on the utility rate
schedule, utility rate preference, and
programmed departure time for the
current day of the week. The vehicle
will charge during the least
expensive rate periods to achieve a
full battery charge by the departure
time. Electrical rate information from
the utility company for the charging
location is required for this mode.
If the selected charge mode is
Departure, then electric rate
preference selection will display.
