the vehicle with a different
240-volt charging station, such
as a public station. If both
attempts charge the vehicle,
contact the charging station
manufacturer.Electrical Requirements
for Battery Charging
This vehicle is capable of being
charged with most standard vehicle
charging equipment complying with
one or more of the following:
.SAE J1772
. SAE J2847-2
. IEC 61851-1
. IEC 61851-22
. IEC 61851-23
. IEC 61851-24
. IEC 62196-1
. IEC 62196-2
. IEC 62196-3
. ISO 15118

. GB/T 20234.1
. GB/T 20234.2 The following are the minimum
requirements for circuits used to
charge this vehicle:
.
120 volts/15 amps
. 240 volts/20 amps
Charging equipment with a rating of
at least 240 volts/20 amps will
provide the fastest charging time
and best charging efficiency to
recharge the high voltage battery.
240 volt/40 amp circuits provide
flexibility for future vehicle charging
needs. Always follow the charging
equipment installation instructions.
Contact your dealer for more
information.
Caution

248 Vehicle Care
Cooling System (Engine)
1. Engine Cooling Fans (Outof View)
2. Engine Coolant Surge Tank and Pressure Cap
{Warning
The electric fans under the hood
can start up even when the
engine is not running and can
cause injury. Keep hands,
clothing, and tools away from any
underhood electric fan. If the coolant inside the coolant
surge tank is boiling, do not do
anything else until it cools down.
The vehicle should be parked on a
level surface.
The coolant level should be up to
the cold fill line. If it is not, there
might be a leak at the radiator
hoses, heater hoses, radiator, water
pump, or somewhere else in the
cooling system.
{Warning
Heater and radiator hoses, and
other engine parts, can be very
hot. Do not touch them. If you do,
you can be burned.
Do not run the vehicle if there is a
leak. If you run the engine, it
could lose all coolant. That could
cause an engine fire, and you
could be burned. Get any leak
fixed before you drive the vehicle.
If there seems to be no leak, with
the engine on, check to see if the
cooling fans are running. If the
engine is overheating, the fans should be running. If it is not, the
vehicle needs service. Turn off the
vehicle.
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 high
voltage battery cell temperature
rises above the normal operating
temperature range, the battery
cooling system turns on the air
conditioning compressor and cools
the coolant until the correct battery
cell temperature is reached. If the
high voltage battery cell temperature
falls below the normal operating
temperature range, a high voltage
heater, located in the battery, heats
the coolant until the correct battery
cell temperature is reached.
During high voltage battery system
cooling, you may feel temperature
changes at the air vents due to the
extra load on the system.
