Charging
Important Information about
Electric Vehicle Charging
.Charging an electric vehicle
can stress a building’s
electrical system more than
a typical household
appliance.
.Charge cord limits can vary
from vehicle to vehicle, and
increased charging rates can
stress a building’s electrical
system.
.Before plugging into any
electrical outlet, have a
qualified electrician inspect
and verify the electrical
system (electrical outlet,
wiring, junctions, andprotection devices) for
heavy-duty service at a
12 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 charging 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.
.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.

124 Instruments and Controls
Charging App
The Charging app gives you
access to features that will
help you better understand
and control how the vehicle
manages energy. Along with
providing a central location to
determine and review your
charging preferences, the
Charging app offers live
information on how the vehicle
is using energy.
To launch the Charging app
from the infotainment home
screen, touch the Charging
icon. There are four selections
to choose from: Charging,
Charge Assist, Schedule, and
Settings. When you launch
Charging for the first time, the
Next Charge screen will
display.
Next Charge
To view the current charging
status in the infotainment
display, touch
C.On the Next Charge screen,
there is a range of information
associated with the next
Charging session, as well as
the ability to specify when you
would like to charge the
vehicle. The choices available
to charge are Charge Now or
Charge Later.
To create a charge schedule
See
“Creating a Charge
Schedule” under“Schedule”
below. The Charging screen
shows and allows you to
determine how the vehicle
charges the next time it is
plugged in.
Charge Now
Charge Now is the default
charging mode for your
vehicle. The vehicle begins
charging immediately when it
is plugged in and
authenticated at the preferred
charging location.
With Charge Now selected,
the Charging screen displays:
.Text explaining that the
vehicle will charge
immediately when
plugged in.
.Charge Complete by/in: The
estimated time at which the
vehicle will reach the desired
Charge Level. The words by
and in will change depending
on how much time is
remaining —over an hour,
or less than an hour.
.Target Charge Level Gauge:
Sets the percentage at
which the vehicle will stop
charging. The gauge also
displays an estimate of the
vehicle's range upon
completing the charging
session.

{Warning
Do not charge your vehicle’s
battery above an 80%
charge if you are going to
drive down long, steep
grades such as mountain
passes. This provides room
in the battery for
regenerative braking to
supplement your
conventional brakes during
the descent. This is
especially important when
towing a trailer, which puts
additional stress on your
vehicle’s braking system.
See Hill and Mountain Roads
0200 for important
information about driving on
grades.
The default charge level is
100% when plugged in. To set
a different charge level, drag
the circular marker on the
Target Charge Level Gauge to
the preferred value. To lower
the desired Charge Level, drag the Charge Level marker
counterclockwise, and to
increase it drag the marker
clockwise. The Charge Level
can also be changed by
tapping
«andªinside the
gauge on the screen. The
multifunction controller (MCF)
on the center console can also
be used to set the Charge
Level by rotating clockwise or
counterclockwise when the
Target Charge Level Gauge is
highlighted. The Range
estimate updates once the
desired Charge Level is set.
To optimize battery health, the
minimum allowable Charge
Level is determined by the
vehicle. Charge Later
Instead of charging
immediately to a desired
Charge Level, you may choose
to delay the charge to the
vehicle and have it complete
by your desired departure
time. This may be a more
economical choice and a more
efficient use of energy when
charging at home. To use this
mode, touch the Charge Later
tab from the Charging screen.
With Charge Later selected,
the Charging screen displays:
.Text explaining that your
vehicle will delay the planned
charge to be ready by the
time specified.
