The vehicle estimates the charging
start time based on the utility rate
schedule, utility rate preference and
the departure time programmed for
the current day of the week. The
vehicle will charge during the least
expensive rate periods to achieve a
full battery charge by the departure
time. Electrical rate information from
the utility company for the charging
location is required for this mode.

The Select Charge Level Preference
setting allows the customer to select
their vehicle's charge level so it
matches the capability of their
charging location. The Select Charge
Level Preference setting will limit the
electrical current when a portable
charge cord is used. This feature has
no impact on charging when a
charging station is used. If the vehicle
consistently stops charging after
plugging in, or if a circuit breaker
continues to trip, reducing to a lower
charge level preference may resolve
the issue.
The charge level preference should
be configured to match the electrical
current rating for the electrical outlet
that the charge cord is connected to.
The charge level preference settings
are:
■ Maximum - 10 Amps: Limits AC
current to 10 ampere
■ Reduced Level 1 - 6 Amps: Limits
AC current to 6 ampere
