HIGH VOLTAGE BATTERY
Your vehicle is equipped with a Lithium-ion high voltage
battery that is used to power the electric powertrain
systems and the 12 volt vehicle electrical system.
The high voltage battery is located under the vehicle. The
high voltage battery is maintenance free and designed to
last for the life of the vehicle.
NOTE:Upon exiting the vehicle, ensure the ignition is in
the off position and the key is removed from the vehicle.
Lithium-ion batteries provide the following benefits:
•Lithium-ion batteries are much lighter than other types
of rechargeable batteries of the same size.
• Lithium-ion batteries hold their charge; they only lose
approximately 3 percent of their charge per month.
• Lithium-ion batteries have no memory, which means
that you do not have to completely discharge them
before recharging, as with some other batteries.

2. Check to see if the charging cordset is ready to charge byreviewing the indicator lights. After a brief self-check,
where the indicator light will flash, a green AC indicator
light and two green charge rate indicator lights indicate
that the cordset is ready for use.
3. If the charging cordset is ready to charge, ensure the vehicle is in PARK, and then connect the charge connec-
tor to the vehicle’s charge inlet. You will hear a “click” when the charge connector is inserted correctly and
coupled with the vehicle’s charge inlet.
4. When the vehicle commences charging, the Charge Rate Indicator Lights will cycle from left to right, and then
both turn off. This pattern will repeat while the vehicle
is charging. The lights are illuminated at the rate of
approximately one cycle per second.

Troubleshooting Using The Status Indicator Display
If the vehicle is not charging properly, consult the status
indicator lights.
TheAC Power Indicator displays the status and safety of
the input power. If this indicator is green, the power is
within acceptable limits to charge the vehicle. If only the
AC Power Indicator is flashing red, then there is a problem
with the AC power at the electrical outlet. If the AC Power
Indicator does not return to green, then the outlet should
be inspected by a licensed electrician to ensure the voltage,
frequency, and grounding are complaint to national and
local electrical codes and ordinances. It may be possible to
attempt charging from a different outlet.
The Fault Indicator displays the status of the Portable
EVSE Cordset and the vehicle connection. The Portable
EVSE Cordset will not allow charging while the fault
indicator is red. If it is off, the Portable EVSE Cordset has
not detected any internal faults, or faults with the vehicle
connection. If the Fault Indicator is flashing red, there is a
fault detected either with the Portable EVSE Cordset,
electronics, or with the vehicle connection. The Portable
EVSE Cordset may attempt to retry to provide current to
the vehicle if the fault is cleared. If the Fault Indicator does not attempt to provide charge to the vehicle, the charge
connector will need to be removed from the vehicle to clear
the fault.
The fault code list in the table below provides a reference
for the important faults that are detected by the Portable
EVSE Cordset. When a fault is detected, the AC Power
Indicator, the Fault Indicator, or both the AC Power and
Fault Indicators will flash red. If only the AC Power
Indicator is red, there is a problem on the AC Power side of
the unit. If only the Fault Indicator is flashing red, there is
a problem internal to the unit or with the vehicle. If both
the AC Power and Fault Indicators are flashing red, an over
temperature condition is detected at either the AC plug or
within the enclosure. Additional information about the
faults is provided by a fault code that is displayed on the
two green Charge Rate Indicators. The fault code consists
of four digits, each with a value of 1 or 2. The value of a
digit is the number of indicators illuminated for that part of
the sequence. For example, fault code (1, 2, 1, 1) will
display the following sequence: One indicator will illumi-
nate for (0.3 seconds), then two indicators will illuminate,
then one indicator, and finally one indicator will illumi-
nate. After all four fault code digits have been displayed,
the indicators will remain off for one second before repeat-
ing the sequence.
