Portable Electric Vehicle Charging
.
Charging an electric vehicle can
stress a building’ s electrical
system more than a typical
household appliance.
. Before plugging into 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 12 amp
continuous load.
. Electrical outlets may wear out
with normal usage or 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 a
weatherproof electrical outlet.

and turns it back into electrical
energy. This energy is then stored in
the high voltage battery system,
contributing to increased energy
efficiency.
Regen on Demand
This feature will slow the vehicle by
recapturing energy using the
steering wheel paddle.
See Regenerative Braking 0185.
