Plug-In Charging
(PLUG-IN Only)
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 the portable charge cord
included with the vehicle, it will take
approximately 12.5 hours to charge
the vehicle with the 12 amp AC
current setting or 20 hours using the
default 8 amp AC current setting.
When using a charging station
capable of 16 amps or more, 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
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.
