Connecting the Charger

To charge the high voltage battery:

Put the vehicle in park (P).

Note: Your vehicle must be in park (P) to charge and for the charge status indicator to illuminate.

Press the center right-hand edge of the charge port door and then release to open the door.

Open the dust cap cover on the charge port to expose lower connectors.

Plug the charge coupler into the charge port receptacle on your vehicle.

Note: An adapter is required for charging stations that use the North American Charging Standard (NACS) plug.

Note: Make sure the button clicks confirming that you have completely engaged the coupler. Your vehicle locks to the charge coupler.

Note: When the handle is properly engaged, the light ring illuminates. This indicates the beginning of a normal charge cycle.

Note: The vehicle monitors battery health and may take actions including, but not limited to, reducing the DC fast charge rate to protect the battery hardware from damage, and to maintain battery health.

Information about the public charge stations is available through the app located in the vehicle touchscreen as well as the vehicle app on a mobile device with pricing, power levels, and real time availability. Rates for charging varies by power level, provider, location, and time of day.

Note: If your vehicle does not have the customer connectivity settings option in the vehicle touchscreen, the app may not function as intended.

Note: Depending on the region, the functionality of the public charging app may not be supported and charge function may not operate as stated.

Note: When charging your vehicle at a public charge station, follow the directions on the charge station.
