WARNING!
•
The engine may idle during use to power the out-
lets. A runni ng engine emits exhaust containing
carbon monoxide, which can cause injury or death
if inhaled. Never use in closed or confined spaces.
•
Never use the Off-Board Power Panel, vehicle charg-
ing port, or 3-pin outlet power plug while in use with
wet hands. Always handle the Off-Board Power Panel
with dry hands. Never use or allow the Off-Board
Power Panel to get wet. Do not use it in wet or damp
locations, and d o not submerge it in water. Only use
electrical equipment with a waterproof function/
rating, or use it in a waterproof environment. Do not
use in environments with rain or high humidity.
•
Never insert metal objects into the Off-Board Power
Panel connectors, or in the vehicle charging port, as
this action can damage the connection terminals.
•
Never disassemble the Off-Board Power Panel.
•
Do not overload electrical extension cords.
•
If there is a risk of lightning, do not use the Off-
Board Power Panel system outside the vehicle.
•
When the Off-Board Power Panel is in operation,
the vehicle’s cooling fan can operate automatically
even if the vehicle is turned off. Do not put your
hands near the cooling fan while it is operating.
•
Never use electrical equipment that requires a
continuous power supply, such as medical equip-
ment. The power supply may be interrupted
depending on t he vehicle’s condition.
The Off-Board Power Panel enables the tr ansfer of energy
from the vehicle to the external load (utility tools, electric
toaster, dryer, or camping equipment), which is connected
to a power socket on the Off-Board Power Panel.
NOTE:
•
When the Off-Board Power Panel is plugged in, and
the button is not pushed on the panel, the vehicle
will not receive the needed information for providing
power to the load. The vehicle will alert an “External
issue detected” pop up and fault indications. When
the button on the power panel is pressed, the faults
will be cleared and the power transfer will happen.
•
Once the Off-Board Power Panel is enabled, and the
power transfer does not begin for 60 minutes, the
authentication will time out. Turn on t he vehicle to
re-authenticate use of the Off-Board Power Panel.
•
During the 60 minutes the authent icat io n is valid,
and when power transfer is not in progress, the Off -
Board Power Panel may transition to sleep mode. In
that case, pushi ng the Off-Board Power Panel button
will turn the feature on and loads can be connected
to draw power.
•
The Off-Board Power Panel will be reset to OFF every time
the Off-Board Power Panel assembly is unplugged.
•
When the Off-Board Power Panel assembly is
plugged in, the vehicle will not be able to achieve a
drive ready state.
•
When the Off-Board Power Panel is activated,
re-authenticating the key will be required to achieve a
drive ready state.
The Off-Board Power Panel provides maximum flexibility
in powering off-board loads using t he high voltage sys-
tem under three modes of operation:
1. Hybrid Mode
○
Hybrid Mode o ffers a balance of efficiency and
duration of power availability.
○
Press the Max Regeneration button and once
illuminated Hybrid mode is activated.
○
Defaults to engine-on as the mode is entered (if
not already running). Runs for a minimum of five
seconds then shuts off if required conditions
are met
○
Battery charges till minimum threshold percent-
age is reache d, then the engine shuts off.
Hybrid charging/depletion cycle commences
and the engine runs as necessary and turns
on/off periodically
○
A low-fuel warning is displayed on the instrument
cluster display, and the engine shuts off. The
panel draws power from the batter y until mini-
mum SOC is reached (engine never restarts)
2. Electric Mode
○
Available if the SOC is above the minimum
threshold
○
High voltage battery provides power until
depleted, then the panel deactivates
○
Engine never turns on
3. Generator Mode
○
Engine runs to charge the battery and power the
system (run post-start required)
○
Engine runs, while charging the battery, until a
low fuel-level is reached or the battery SOC is
maxed
○
Low-fuel warning displayed on the instrument
cluster display or the battery SOC is reached.
The engine shuts off and the panel draws power
from the battery until the minimum SOC is
reached if engine never restarts
