GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

Charging times may be longer if a thermal
self-protection reduces the charging current
from the EVSE.
If the vehicle’s ignition is in either the ACC or
RUN position, the vehicle charge indicator
may not indicate greater than a 99% state of
charge, and will continue to charge the
vehicle, due to the vehicle loads.

Instrument Cluster High Voltage Battery Display
There is a battery display indicator located on the
instrument cluster. The battery display will
indicate the current state of charge for the high
voltage battery; with the percentage value
located to the right of the symbol. When plugged
in, the battery symbol also indicates the battery
level along with messages about the charge or
whether the system is waiting to charge due to
the charge schedule. These will appear unless
there is a charging fault. A green plug telltale will
be shown in the cluster, as well as applicable
messaging when charging.

Instrument Panel State Of Charge Indicator
In addition to the battery display in the
instrument cluster, your vehicle is equipped
with a visual state of charge indicator. The state
of charge indicator is made up of five lights that
are mounted to the top center of the instrument
panel, which will illuminate when the vehicle is
plugged into the EVSE.
State Of Charge Indicator
The state of charge indicator provides a visual
indication of the high voltage battery’s charge
status during charging. It’s also used to indicate
a charging problem as well as waiting for a
scheduled charge to begin.
NOTE:
The lights scroll one at a time when the vehicle
is plugged in outside of its charging schedule
time/day of the week, and it is waiting on the
schedule to begin charging.
In extreme hot or cold environments, the lights on
the state of charge indicator may not illuminate.
Charge status is available in the instrument
cluster display. In the event of an error in the
charging process, the outer two lights will blink.
