CHARGING

CHARGING TIME

Keep the vehicle plugged in, even when fully charged, to keep the 

battery temperature ready for the next drive.
Using the portable 

charge cord included 

with the vehicle will 

take approximately 

12.5 hours to fully 

charge a depleted 

 battery at the 12 amp 

setting, or approxi-

mately 20 hours at the default 8 amp setting. Using a charging 

 station capable of 16 amps or more will take approximately 4.5 

hours. Charge times will vary with outside temperature.

CHARGING MODES

The vehicle can be programmed for 3 charging modes: Immediately, 

Delay Charge Based on Departure Time, and Delay (Electric Rate

2.  Touch the

 text or

 text to change the

will automatically use these settings when parked at its “home” 

location.
