See equipment instructions to start charging

NOTE: Be sure to use your Mobile App to precondition the vehicle. Setting your climate control

If you have checked for and cleared any debris or foreign objects, but charging is still limited or

App to precondition your vehicle on HI for approximately 30 - 45 minutes. This should help
thaw any ice on the charge port latch so the charge cable can be properly inserted.
NOTE: Be sure to use your Mobile App to precondition the vehicle. Setting your climate control
