HIGH VOLTAGE BATTERY
Your vehicle is equipped with a Lithium-ion high voltage
battery that is used to power the electric powertrain
systems and the 12 volt vehicle electrical system.
The high voltage battery is located under the middle
section of the vehicle, below and in front of the second row
seating. The high voltage battery is maintenance free and
designed to last for the life of the vehicle.
Lithium-ion batteries provide the following benefits:
•Lithium-ion batteries are much lighter than other types
of rechargeable batteries of the same size.
• Lithium-ion batteries hold their charge; they only lose
approximately 3 percent of their charge per month.
• Lithium-ion batteries have no memory, which means
that you do not have to completely discharge them
before recharging, as with some other batteries.
• Lithium-ion batteries can be recharged and discharged
thousands of times. High Voltage Battery Service Disconnect
The High Voltage Battery Service Disconnect is located
under the floor, in front of the second row passenger
seating.
If your vehicle requires high voltage battery service, see
your authorized dealer.
WARNING!
Never try to remove the high voltage service discon-
nect. The high voltage service disconnect is used when
your vehicle requires service by a trained technician at
an authorized dealer. Failure to follow this warning
can cause severe burns or electrical shock that may
result in serious injury or death.
Disposal of the High Voltage Battery
Your vehicle’s high voltage battery is designed to last the
life of your vehicle. See your authorized dealer for infor-
mation on the disposal of the battery if it should require
replacement.

AC Level 1 Charging (120V, 15 Amp)
Your vehicle is equipped with a 120 Volt AC, SAE J1772
Level 1 Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE), also
referred to as a charging cordset. AC Level 1 charging
requires a conventional NEMA 5-15 120 Volt AC grounded
wall receptacle along with the charging cordset provided
with the vehicle.
WARNING!
Shock, fire, property damage, or personal injury may
occur if the Portable EVSE Cordset is not used prop-
erly. There are no serviceable parts contained in the
Portable EVSE Cordset. Any attempt to service it may
result in shock, fire, property damage, or personal
injury.
To access the charging cordset, open the door of the cargo
area storage bin, on the driver ’s side, and remove the
charging cordset from the storage bag.

WARNING!
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding con-
ductor could result in a risk of electric shock. Check
with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in
doubt as to whether the wall receptacle is properly
grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the
product – if it does not fit the outlet, you must have a
proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
2. Check to see if the charging cordset is ready to charge by reviewing the indicator lights. After a brief self-check,
where the indicator light will flash, a green AC indicator
light and two green “charge active” indicator lights
indicate that the cordset is ready for use.
