Charge Level Button
On some models, charge level
selection can be made using the
Select Charge Level Preference
screen on the center stack. See
“Charge Level Selection”under
Charging on page 5‑32.
On some models, charge level
selection can be made using the
charge level button on the charge
cord as described in the following.
{WARNING
Using a charge level that exceeds
the electrical circuit or socket
capacity may start a fire or
damage the electrical circuit. Use
the lowest charge level until a
qualified electrician inspects your
electrical circuit capacity. Use the
lowest charge level if the
electrical circuit or socket
capacity is not known. Two charge levels are available by
pressing the charge level button.
Select reduced or normal level.
The charge level cannot be
changed when the vehicle plug is
plugged into the charge port on the
vehicle. If the charge level button is
pressed while the vehicle plug is
plugged into the charge port on the
vehicle, the charge level indicators
will flash briefly. To change the
charge level, unplug the vehicle
plug from the charge port on the
vehicle and select the desired
charge level.
Normal Level:
This level is
recommended. All four charge level
indicators will be lit.
Reduced Level: Use when the
electrical current is limited. Two
charge level indicators will be lit.
Vehicle Plug
The vehicle plug attaches to the
charge port on the vehicle. There is
a flashlight built into the vehicle plug
that can be used by squeezing the
vehicle plug lever. The flashlight will
turn off when the connection is
complete and the lever is released.

9-58 Driving and Operating
Utility Interruption of
Charging
For participating customers, this
vehicle will respond to remote
requests via OnStar to limit or
completely block electrical power
grid usage for brief time periods.
A utility interruption of charging may
increase vehicle charge time.
When electrical grid power is
completely blocked, the vehicle will
delay charging until the utility
interruption has expired. The vehicle
should be left plugged in so that,
when the utility interruption expires,
the vehicle can automatically begin
charging.
Changing the charge mode to
Immediate or performing a delayed
charging override will not disable a
utility interruption.A pop‐up will be displayed in the
center stack display during the key
cycle following any utility
interruption. See
“Charge Override/
Interruption Pop‐up” underCharging
on page 5‑32.
Text will be displayed on the
instrument cluster notifying the
customer that a utility interruption
has occurred. See Instrument
Cluster on page 5‑9.
Electrical Requirements
for Battery Charging
The AC outlet must have a
grounded, dedicated, 15 amp or
greater, three‐prong wall plug. That
means there should be no other
major appliances connected to the
same circuit. If it is not a dedicated
circuit, the current rating of the
outlet circuit breaker could be
exceeded and cause it to trip or
open. The vehicle can be charged in
the reduced level mode. See
“Charge Level Button” in thissection. Reduced level mode allows
a non‐dedicated circuit to be used
but increases the charging time.
This vehicle is capable of being
charged with standard vehicle
charging equipment complying to:
.SAE J1772™
.IEC 61851‐1
.IEC 61851‐22
.IEC 62196‐1
.IEC 62196‐2
The following are the minimum
requirements for circuits used to
charge this vehicle:
.120V/15Amp
.240V/20Amp

Black plate (59,1)Chevrolet Volt Owner Manual - 2012
Driving and Operating 9-59
Charging equipment with a rating of
at least 240V/20Amp will provide
the fastest charging time to
recharge the high voltage battery.
240V/40Amp circuits provide
flexibility for future vehicle charging
needs. Contact your dealer for more
information.
Do not use non‐grounded electrical
plug adapters.
Notice:Do not use portable or
stationary backup generating
equipment to charge the vehicle.
This may cause damage to the
vehicle's charging system. Only
charge the vehicle from utility
supplied power.Fuel
Use of the recommended fuel is an
important part of the proper
maintenance of this vehicle. To help
keep the engine clean and maintain
optimum vehicle performance, we
recommend the use of gasoline
advertised as TOP TIER Detergent
Gasoline.
Look for the TOP TIER label on the
fuel pump to ensure gasoline meets
enhanced detergency standards
developed by auto companies. A list
of marketers providing TOP TIER
Detergent Gasoline can be found at
www.toptiergas.com.
Use premium unleaded gasoline
with a posted octane rating of 91 or
higher. If the octane is less than 91,
you could damage the engine.
If heavy knocking is heard when
using gasoline rated at 91 octane or
higher, the engine needs service.

10-16 Vehicle Care
Cooling System (High
Voltage Battery)
During vehicle operation and also
during charging, the high voltage
battery cells in the vehicle are kept
within a normal operating
temperature range. If the
temperature rises above this
temperature, the battery cooling
system turns on the air conditioning
compressor and cools the coolant
until the correct temperature is
reached. If the temperature falls
below this temperature, a high
voltage heater, located in the
battery, heats the coolant until the
correct temperature is reached.
What to Use
The high voltage battery coolant
reservoir in the vehicle is filled with
a 50/50 mixture of DEX-COOL
engine coolant and deionized water.
If using this mixture, nothing else
needs to be added.
The coolant needs to be replaced
every 5 years or 240 000 km
(150,000 mi), whichever occurs first.
Checking Coolant
The vehicle must be on a level
surface when checking the coolant
level.
The high voltage battery coolant
reservoir is located on the
passenger side of the engine
compartment. SeeEngine
Compartment Overview on
page 10‑8 for more information on
location.
Check to see if coolant is visible in
the high voltage battery coolant
reservoir. If coolant is visible but the
coolant level is below the cold fill
line, there could be a leak in the
cooling system.
The high voltage battery coolant
should only be serviced by a
qualified technician.
