Utility Interruption of Charging
This vehicle responds to requests through
the utility company to limit or completely
block electrical power grid use. This feature
is inactive during DC charging. A utility
interruption will lengthen the vehicle
charge time.
When electrical grid power is completely
blocked, the vehicle will not charge until the
utility interruption has expired. The vehicle
should be left plugged in so that the vehicle
will automatically resume charging.
Changing the charge mode to Charge Now
or performing a delayed charging override
will not disable a utility interruption.
A message will display on the instrument
cluster indicating that a utility interruption
has occurred.
Charging Station Troubleshooting
If the vehicle does not charge after being
plugged in to a residential 240-volt charging
station:1. Verify that the charge mode is set to Charge Now.
2. Verify that the charging station circuit breaker is not tripped. 3. Plug the portable charge cord into the
wall outlet, verify that the indicator light
on the charge cord is solid green, and
connect it to the vehicle. See “Charge
Cord Status Indicators” inCharge Cord

4. If the vehicle charges with the portable charge cord and a different 240-volt
charging station, such as a public station,
there may be a problem with the
charging station. Contact the charging
station manufacturer for service.
