DC Charging (if equipped)
DC charging stations are typically found in public locations.
Charging Time
Using a DC charging station, it will take approximately 30 minutes to recharge a deplet-
ed battery to 90 miles of EV range. Charge times will vary with outside temperature.
Charging will continue to 100%, but at a slower rate. At 100% state of charge, the vehicle
may continue to draw power to condition the battery if needed. Once battery condition-
ing is complete, the vehicle will stop the charge session.
Start DC Charging
1. With the vehicle parked and turned off, push and release the rear edge of the charge
port door, located just in front of the driver’s door, to open the door.
2. Unlatch and lower the DC charging dust cover on the charge port.
3. Plug the charge cord into the vehicle’s charge port.
4. Follow the steps on the charging station to start charging. The electric parking brake
will automatically apply and the DC plug will be locked and cannot be disconnected
while charging is active.
5. The Charge Status Indicator on top of the instrument panel will illuminate green and
the horn will chirp when properly connected.
Note:
To change the horn chirp setting, go to Charging Alerts in the Vehicle Settings menu.
If the vehicle is locked with the RKE transmitter, the charge cord theft alert is armed
automatically after 30 seconds.
End DC Charging
1. Unlock the vehicle with the RKE transmitter to disarm the charge cord theft alert.
2. When the vehicle is fully charged, it will stop charging and the plug will be unlocked.
To stop charging at any time, use the controls on the charging station or touch the
Stop button on the Battery Information screen on the vehicle touchscreen.
3. When the Charge Status Indicator is solid green or off, unplug the charge cord from
the vehicle.
4. Close the DC charging dust cover and close the charge port door.
5. Disengage the electric parking brake before driving the vehicle.
