OSolid Green(Off (No Light)@No Faults: The charge cord is receiving power from the electrical outlet
and is ready to supply it to the vehicle.

Electrical Outlet/Plug Fault: The charge cord has detected that the
electrical outlet/plug overheated. Electrical outlets may wear out with
normal usage or may be damaged over time, making them unsuitable for
electric vehicle charging. Do not use an electrical outlet that is worn,
damaged, or one that will not hold the plug firmly in place. Use another
electrical outlet or have the electrical outlet serviced by a qualified
electrician. Reset the charge cord by unplugging the charge cord from the
electrical outlet and re-plugging it.
(Off (No Light)OSolid RedR o
Electrical System Fault: The charge cord has detected a missing or
improper ground within the building's electrical system. Do not use an
electrical outlet that is not properly grounded. Use another electrical outlet
or have a qualified electrician inspect and verify the building's electrical
system.

Vehicle Fault: The charge cord ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) has
tripped. Ensure that there is no physical damage to the charge cord, and
that the vehicle plug is seated completely and making a good connection.
Reset the charge cord by unplugging it from the electrical outlet and
re-plugging it. If the fault remains, see an authorized dealer for service.

Charge Cord Fault: The charge cord has detected a potential problem with
the charge cord. Reset the charge cord by unplugging it from the electrical
outlet and re-plugging it. If the fault remains, see an authorized dealer for
service.
If no status indicators are lit, ensure the
electrical outlet is powered.
Charge Cord Status Indicators (Dual Level
Charge Cord)
Refer to the instructions that come with the
dual level charge cord. Do not lose these
instruction.
Charge Level Selection
Charge level selection can be made using
the Charge Mode tab on the Charging
screen on the infotainment display. See
“Level 1–120V Cord Limit” under
Programmable Charging 090.
{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.
Grounding Instructions
The portable charge cord must be grounded.
If this charge cord should malfunction or
break down, grounding provides a path of
least resistance for electric current to reduce
the risk of electric shock. This product is
equipped with a cord that has an equipment
grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet that is properly installed
and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.
{Warning
Improper connection of the charge cord
ground may cause electrical shock. Check
with a qualified electrician if there is
doubt as to whether the charge circuit is
properly grounded. Do not modify the
plug provided with the product. If it will
not fit the electrical outlet, have a proper
electrical outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.

Lock Feature (Single Level Charge Cord)
A lock can be added to the vehicle plug for
additional security.
FCC Information
SeeRadio Frequency Statement 0294.
Utility Interruption of Charging
This vehicle will respond to requests through
the utility company to limit or completely
block electrical power grid usage. This
feature is inactive during DC charging.
A utility interruption of charging will
lengthen the vehicle charge time.
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. Unplugging
and plugging the car back in will also not
disable a utility interruption.
A pop-up will appear in the infotainment
display while starting the vehicle following
any utility interruption. See
“Charging
Interrupted or Overridden Pop-Up” under
Programmable Charging 090.
A message will display on the instrument
cluster indicating that a utility interruption
has occurred.
Electrical Requirements for
Battery Charging
This vehicle is capable of being charged with
most standard vehicle charging equipment
complying with one or more of the
following:
.SAE J1772
.SAE J2847-2
.IEC 61851-1
.IEC 61851-22
.IEC 61851-23
.IEC 61851-24
.IEC 62196-1
.IEC 62196-2
.IEC 62196-3
The original equipment charge cord requires
a minimum circuit capacity as follows:
.120 volt system —15 amps
.240 volt system —40 amps (dual level
charge cord only)
For maximum level 2 charging rate, a
240 volt/48 amp charge station is required
(not included). The minimum circuit capacity
for this system is 60 amps.
Always follow the installation instructions
provided with your charging equipment and
all local electrical codes.
Caution
Do not use portable or stationary backup
generating equipment to charge the
vehicle. This may cause damage to the
vehicle's charging system. Only charge
the vehicle from utility supplied power.

Cooling System
It is not necessary to regularly check coolant
unless a leak is suspected or an unusual
noise is heard. A coolant loss could indicate
a problem. Have it inspected and repaired
by your dealer.
The following explains the cooling systems
and how to check coolant levels.
.High Voltage Battery
.Single Power Inverter Module (SPIM),
Accessory Power Module (APM), and
Charger Module
.Cabin Heating
High Voltage Battery
During vehicle operation and also during
charging, the high voltage battery cells in
the vehicle are kept within a normal
operating temperature range. If the
temperature rises above this temperature,
the battery cooling system turns on the air
conditioning compressor and cools the
coolant until the correct temperature is
reached. If the temperature falls below this
temperature, a high voltage heater, located
outside the battery on a cradle, heats the
coolant until the correct temperature is
reached.
Single Power Inverter Module (SPIM),
Accessory Power Module (APM), and
Charger Module
The SPIM, APM, and charger module are
cooled using a separate coolant loop. These
modules are kept below a maximum
temperature. If the temperature rises above
this temperature, the electric cooling fan will
turn on to cool the coolant.
Cabin Heating
Cabin heating is maintained by coolant
heated by the Coolant Heater Control
Module (CHCM), separate from the power
electronics and battery coolant loops. This
module heats the coolant based on
temperature inputs from the cabin climate
control systems.
Hybrid Cooling System Pressure Caps
The hybrid cooling system reservoirs have
tamper resistant pressure caps. The coolant
should only be serviced by a qualified
technician.
Checking Coolant
The coolant needs to be replaced at the
appropriate interval. See Maintenance
Schedule 0276.
The coolant reservoirs are in the underhood
compartment. See Underhood Compartment
Overview 0220.
