DC Charging
DC Charging Station Hardware
The vehicle can be charged using DC
charging equipment typically found at
service stations and other public locations. Check the charging station DC vehicle plug
for compatibility with the DC charge port on
this vehicle. This vehicle is compatible with a
Combined Charging System 1 (CCS1)
connector.
When recharging at a DC charge station, the
charging cable connected to the vehicle
must be less than 10 m (33 ft) in length to
meet functionality and regulatory
requirements.
{Warning
Do not use the charging station if the
handle has defects such as cracks,
exposed wires, burnt or missing pins,
or any other damage. A damaged handle
may result in personal injury and/or
damage to the vehicle, the charging port
or other property.
For maximum charging performance, and to
prevent charging interruptions or damage to
the high voltage battery and vehicle:
.Remove your hands from the charging
handle once it has been plugged in. If not
done, this can cause a charging
interruption.
.Ensure that the charge cord plug clicks. Follow the steps listed on the charging
station to perform a DC vehicle charge.
If for any reason DC charging does not
begin or is interrupted, check the DC
charging station display for messages.
Unplug the cord to restart the DC charging
process.
To Start DC Charging
1. Put the vehicle in P (Park).
2. Press the Electric Parking brake (EPB) switch. See Electric Parking Brake 0205.
3. Push the rearward edge of the charge port door and release to open the door.
In cold weather conditions, ice may form
around the charge port door. The charge
port door may not open on the first
attempt. Remove ice from the area and
repeat attempting to open the charge
port door.

Charge Cord
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This symbol indicates risk of electrical shock.
SeeRadio Frequency Statement 0404.
The vehicle comes with a portable charge
cord used to charge the high voltage
battery. When used correctly, the Charge
Cord provides a safe connection between a
standard electrical outlet and your vehicle's
on-board charger.
When storing the charge cord in the vehicle,
ensure the charge cord bag is secured.
Depending on the storage location, tether
the charge cord bag to vehicle.
1. 120 Volt and 240 Volt Connectors
2. Charge Cord Control Box and Charge Cord Status Indicator
3. Charge Cord Vehicle Plug
Important Information about Portable Electric
Vehicle Charging
.Charging an electric vehicle can stress a
building’s electrical system more than a
typical household appliance.
.Before plugging the charge cord into any
electrical outlet, have a qualified
electrician inspect and verify the electrical
system (electrical outlet, wiring, junctions,
and protection devices) is suitable for a
heavy-duty service.
.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.
.Do not attempt to use the charge cord
with non-utility supplied electrical power
sources such as backup generating
equipment.
.If the charge cord overheats, remove from
direct sunlight.
.Disconnect the charge cord from the
vehicle before disconnecting the
attachment plug from the wall.
.When charging your vehicle, ensure all
components are connected properly, there
is no damage, and the outlet has power.
.Do not use the charge cord in severe
weather conditions.

Lights
This view displays the names of the trailer
connector pins, a graphic of the trailer
connector, and a graphic of the back of the
trailer. Any connector pin that fails turns an amber
color, and the location of the corresponding
connection is highlighted on the graphic of
the back of the trailer.
If a trailer connection is detected without
any faults, the view displays
“No Issues
Found.”
When a trailer is connected, the Trailering
App System detects the trailer connection
using the Stop/Turn Signal lighting circuits
and alerts the driver by requesting a trailer
profile setup through the Trailering App
System on the infotainment screen. If a
default trailer profile is selected, the
Trailering App System does not display a
Trailer Detection Alert to the user when a
trailer is connected.
When a trailer is connected and the vehicle
is off, the Trailering App System periodically
pulses the lighting circuits of the trailer to
verify it is still connected. The trailer lights
may periodically flash as a result of this
trailer connection detection. These flashes
may be more visible in dark ambient light
environments. The flashing or flickering
lights are a normal condition and the
Trailering App System has built-in
protections to prevent the battery from draining. When Theft Alert is enabled, the
frequency and pattern of this flashing
changes.
If a connected trailer disconnects, a message
immediately appears on the DIC if the
vehicle is on, or the next time the vehicle is
turned on. Check your trailer connection if
needed.
Connection Problem
If any of the trailer connections are lost, a
message about the connection issue appears
on the DIC. The infotainment display also
shows the connection issue in the Lights
Status view.
Connection Trailer Lighting Faults Detected
The Trailering App System monitors for
electrical faults on the trailer lights.
A message about the lighting issue appears
on the DIC. The infotainment display also
shows the lighting issue in the Lights Status
view. Repair your trailer lights if needed.
A trailer lighting issue is not covered by
your GM warranty.
The Running Lights connection may not
detect partial outages. Activate the Light
Test to check all trailer lamps. See
“Light
Test” following.

332 Vehicle Care
before storing. The vehicle will stop
maintenance of the 12-volt battery if the
high voltage battery state of charge gets
too low.
When storing the vehicle on a long-term
basis:
‐Keep the high voltage battery state of
charge at 30%.
‐ Attach an AGM/VRLA compatible battery
tender or trickle charger to the 12-volt
battery.
‐ Keep the remote key more than 3 m
(10 ft) away from the vehicle.
12-volt Battery
{Warning
Batteries have acid that can burn you and
gas that can explode. You can be badly
hurt if you are not careful. Always wear
eye protection. See Jump Starting - North
America 0375 for tips on working around
a battery without getting hurt.
Do not disconnect the 12-volt battery during
storage. A trickle charger may be attached to the
12-volt battery terminals or trickle charge
from the underhood remote positive (+) and
negative (–) terminals. See
Jump Starting -
North America 0375 for location of these
terminals.
Caution
The vehicle is equipped with an AGM/
VRLA 12-volt battery, which can be
damaged by using the incorrect type of
trickle charger. An AGM/VRLA-compatible
charger must be used, with the
appropriate setting selected. Follow the
trickle charger manufacturer instructions.
With a trickle charger connected to the
12-volt battery, the vehicle will still monitor
the 12-volt battery daily, but it will not use
energy from the high voltage battery for
maintenance.
High Voltage Battery
After extended storage, it is possible that
the vehicle may not operate. If this happens,
the high voltage battery may need to be
plugged in and charged.
