Electric Rate Preference Selection
From the Charge Mode tab on the
Charging screen with Departure
charge mode selected, touch More
to select the Electric Rate
Preference.
Touch one of the following options
to select the Electric Rate
Preference:

Off-Peak Rates.
.
Cost Optimized Off- and
Mid-Peak: Charge during
Mid-Peak and Off-Peak Rates.
.
Cost Optimized All Rates:
Charge during Peak, Mid-Peak,
and Off-Peak Rates.
Charging begins at the start time
and is complete by the departure
time only if sufficient time is allowed
after the charge cord is plugged in.
For example, if the vehicle is
plugged in for only one hour prior to
the departure time, and the battery
is completely discharged, the
vehicle will not be fully charged by
the departure time regardless of the
rate selection.
Also, if the selected electric rate
settings result in a very long charge
completion time, the vehicle will
start charging immediately upon
plug-in. For example, if the electric
rate table is set up with all Peak
rates and the rate preference is to
charge during Off-Peak rates only,
then the vehicle will start charging
immediately upon plug-in.
