Driving and Operating
LKA assistance and/or LDW alerts
may occur due to tar marks,
shadows, cracks in the road,
temporary or construction lane
markings, or other road
imperfections. This is normal system
operation; the vehicle does not need
service. Turn LKA off if these
conditions continue.
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, 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.
