.Time Selector: Used to set
the desired time at which
the vehicle will finish
charging and be ready for
departure.
.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.
.Cabin Pre-Conditioning:
Allows the vehicle to heat or
cool the cabin to your
desired temperature using
energy from the charger.
This means energy from the
battery is not used to
condition the cabin, ensuring
the vehicle gets the greatest

session. Cabin
pre-conditioning happens at
the end of the charge, and
right before the
departure time.To set the time at which the
vehicle will complete the
charge and be ready for
departure:
Swipe up or down on each
value within the Time Selector
until the preferred time is
selected. The time selector
can also be modified using the
multifunction controller (MCF)
on the center console by
turning the knob when the
preferred value is highlighted.
If the desired Charge Level
cannot be reached by the
selected time, a message will
display that one of the two
preferences will need to be
adjusted.

on how much time is
remaining—over an hour,
or less than an hour.
.Target Charge Level Gauge:
During an Active Charge, the
gauge displays the vehicle's
current Charge Level as
a percentage and a colored
section of the circular gauge
to represent this value.
To update the desired Charge
Level for the active charging
session, drag the marker on
the Target Charge Level
Gauge.
Touching the Stop Charge
button at any time ends the
active charging session and
presents a summary of the
current vehicle Range, Charge
Level, and amount of Range
Gained during the charging session. For information on
beginning a charging session,
see Plug-In Charging
0285.
For Level 1 chargers, you can
also select the appropriate
Charge Cord Limit of either
8 amps or 12 amps. This
determines how much current
can flow from an electrical
outlet to the vehicle battery.
It also ensures proper charge
time estimates.
When the Charge Cord Limit is
changed from 8 amps to
12 amps on a 120V circuit a
notification is displayed.
If no Home Charge Location is
set, the Level 1 Cord Limit will
revert to 8 amps every time
the vehicle is shifted out
of (P) Park.
Range and charge time
estimates fluctuate depending
on a number of factors such
as Charge Cord Level/Limit,

Battery Load
Management
The vehicle has Electric Power
Management (EPM) that
estimates the battery
temperature and state of
charge. It then adjusts the
voltage for best performance
and extended life of the 12–
volt battery
When the battery state of
charge is low, the voltage is
raised slightly to quickly
increase the charge. When thestate of charge is high, the
voltage is lowered slightly to
prevent over charging. As this
adjustment occurs, you may
see the voltage move up or
down on the voltmeter gauge
or voltage display on the
Driver Information (DIC),
if equipped. This is normal. If a
problem occurs, an alert will be
displayed.
If the electrical loads are very
high, the battery can be
discharged when the vehicle is
stationary. A high electrical
load occurs when several
features are on, such as:
headlamps, high beams, rear
window defogger, climate
control fan at high speed,
heated seats, motor cooling
fans, trailer loads, and loads
plugged into accessory power
outlets.
EPM works to prevent
excessive discharge of the
battery by balancing the
electrical system output and
the vehicle's electrical needs.
