Charging
Plug-In Charging
This section explains the charging
of the vehicle's high voltage battery.
Do not allow the vehicle to remain in
extreme temperatures for long
periods without being driven or
plugged in. Plug the vehicle in when
temperatures are below 0 °C (32 °F)
and above 32 °C (90 °F) to
maximize the life of the high voltage
battery.
When using a 120-volt AC electrical
outlet, it will take approximately
13 hours to charge the vehicle with
the 12 amp AC current setting or
19 hours using the default 8 amp
AC current setting.
When using a 240-volt charging
station, if the vehicle is equipped
with a 7.2kw on-board charge
module, it will take approximately
2.3 hours to charge the vehicle.
When using a 240-volt charging
station, if the vehicle is equipped
with a 3.6kw on-board charge
module, it will take approximately
4.5 hours to charge the vehicle.
Charge times will vary with outside
temperature. There are three ways
to program how the vehicle is
charged. See Programmable
Charging 0 124.
The charging system may run fans
and pumps that result in sounds
from the vehicle while it is turned
off. Additional unexpected clicking
sounds may be caused by the
electrical devices used while
charging.
While the charge cord is plugged
into the vehicle, the vehicle cannot
be driven.
