Charging

Note: The vehicle must be in (P)
Park to charge.

To charge your high-voltage battery:

1. Put the vehicle in (P) park and
power down the vehicle.

2. With your thumb, press the
indentation located on the charge
port door and the door will rotate
open.

3. Plug the charging coupler into the vehicles charge port receptacle and
make sure the button “clicks” confirming that it is completely engaged.

4. Verify that the cord acknowledgement feature activates. This indicates
the beginning of a normal charge cycle.

5. If using a 240 volt charging station, follow the instructions on the
charge station to begin the charging process.

When charging, the light ring will display how far along the charge is:
• When the top right quadrant is pulsing the charge is between

0–25 percent.

• When the top right quadrant is solidly lit and the bottom right

quadrant is pulsing the charge is between 25–50 percent.

• When both right side quadrants are solidly lit and the bottom left

quadrant is pulsing the charge is between 50–75 percent.

• When three quadrants are solidly lit and the top left quadrant is

pulsing the charge is between 75–100 percent.

• When the entire ring is solidly lit, the charge is complete.
Note: The ring will shut off one minute after reaching a full charge.

Note: If a vehicle charging system fault is detected at any point in a
charge cycle the entire light ring will flash continuously for one minute
and then shut off. If this happens unplug, and then re-plug the charging
coupler into the charge port receptacle. If the problem persists contact
your authorized dealer.
