Note: Do not force the charge port door
open or closed. Forcing the door open or
closed damages the charge port.
CHARGE PORT INDICATORS
The charge status indicator around the
charge port indicates the charge status of
the high voltage battery in your vehicle.
Divided into five zones, the charge status
indicator displays the state of charge in 20
percent increments.
We use the color white as a courtesy light
to help with plugging in and to
acknowledge actions such as plugging in,
unplugging or pressing the charge times
button.
We use the color blue when you plug the
vehicle in and are either charging or waiting
to charge.
We use the color orange to indicate charge
faults.
The charge status indicator displays how
far along the charge is:
• When the bottom zone is pulsing, the charge is between 0-20 percent.
• When the bottom zone illuminates and the next is pulsing, the charge is
between 20-40 percent. • When two zones illuminate and the
next is pulsing, the charge is between
40-60 percent.
• When three zones illuminate and the next is pulsing, the charge is between
60-80 percent.
• When four zones illuminate and the top zone is pulsing, the charge is between
80-100 percent.
• When all zones illuminate, the charge is 100 percent.

Note: When charging stops, the charge
status indicator shows all the completed
zones solidly lit up in a blue color for 30
seconds before turning off. For example, if
charging stops at 70 percent, then the
bottom three zones light up solidly to
indicate a battery charge level of at least
60 percent but less than 80 percent.
Charging stops when complete or when
paused due to preferred charge settings or
charge station actions.

4. Verify that the cord acknowledgmentfeature activates. This indicates the
beginning of a normal charge cycle.
The charge status indicator lights up
each zone alternately from bottom to
top and from bottom to top again. 5. If using a charging station, follow the
instructions on the charge station to
begin the charging process.
E306677
Note: You can identify charging faults by
the color orange on the charge status
indicator. Faults can occur within the vehicle
charging system or outside the vehicle, such
as with the charge cord, charge station or
electrical supply.
Note: If the system detects a fault in the
vehicle charging system at any point in a
charge cycle, the entire charge status
indicator lights up solidly in an orange color
for 30 seconds and then turns off. If this
happens, unplug the charging coupler and
then plug it back into the charge port
receptacle. If the problem persists, have
your vehicle checked as soon as possible.
Note: If the system detects a fault outside
the vehicle, such as with the charge station
or charge cord, the entire charge status
indicator flashes continuously for 30
seconds and then turns off. If this happens,
check the charge cord and the charge
station or electrical supply.
Note: Put your vehicle in park (P) to charge,
and for the charge status indicator to
illuminate.

SETTING THE CHARGING
SCHEDULE AND
PREFERENCES
E306678
Note: Select charge settings on the home
page of the touchscreen or under the vehicle
settings menu to access charge preferences.
See SYNC™ 3 (page 431).
Charging may not begin upon plugging in
if you have set up preferred charge times
for this vehicle location. Your vehicle could
delay charging to take advantage of
off-peak electricity rates. Your vehicle
optimizes the charge schedule to be
complete by your next departure time.
When waiting to charge, plugged in and
not currently charging, the charge status
indicator shows the present state of charge
of the high voltage battery by lighting up
all completed zones for 30 seconds before
turning off. For example, if the battery is at
70 percent charge then the bottom three
zones solidly light up to indicate a battery
charge level of at least 60 percent but less
than 80 percent. When the current state
of charge is less than 20 percent, none of
the zones light up.
Note: When your vehicle is waiting to
charge, the charge status indicator turns off
30 seconds after displaying the present
state of charge. When your vehicle begins
charging, the charge status indicator turns
on and displays the status of the charge, as
described above.

WHAT IS THE BATTERY
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
The battery management system monitors
battery conditions and takes actions to
extend battery life.
HOW DOES THE BATTERY
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM WORK
If excessive battery drain is detected, the
system temporarily disables some
electrical systems to protect the battery.
Systems included are:
• Heated rear window.
• Heated seats.
• Climate control.
• Heated steering wheel.
• Audio unit.
• Navigation system.
A message could appear in the information
display to alert you that battery protection
actions are active. This message is only for
notification that an action is taking place,
and not intended to indicate an electrical
problem or that the battery requires
replacement.
BATTERY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
LIMITATIONS
After battery replacement, or in some
cases after charging the battery with an
external charger, the battery management
system requires eight hours of vehicle sleep
time to relearn the battery state of charge.
During this time, your vehicle must remain
fully locked with the ignition switched off.
Note:Prior to relearning the battery state
of charge, the battery management system
could temporarily disable some electrical
systems.
Electrical Accessory Installation
To make sure the battery management
system works correctly, do not connect an
electrical device ground connection
directly to the battery negative post. This
can cause inaccurate measurements of
the battery condition and potential
incorrect system operation.
Note: If you add electrical accessories or
components to the vehicle, it could
adversely affect battery performance and
durability. This could also affect the
performance of other electrical systems in
the vehicle.
RESETTING THE BATTERY
SENSOR
When you install a new battery, reset the
battery sensor by doing the following:
1. Switch the ignition on, and leave the engine off.
Note: Complete Steps 2 and 3 within 10
seconds.
2. Flash the high beam headlamps five times, ending with the high beams off.
3. Press and release the brake pedal three times.
The battery warning lamp flashes three
times to confirm that the reset is
successful.
RECYCLING AND DISPOSING OF
THE 12V BATTERY
E107998
Make sure that you dispose of
old batteries in an
environmentally friendly way.
Seek advice from your local authority
about recycling old batteries.
