Gained during the charging session. For
information on beginning a charging session,
see Plug-In Charging 0 145.
For Level 1 chargers, you can also select the
appropriate Charge Cord Limit of either
8 amps or 12 amps. This determines how
much current can flow from an electrical
outlet to the vehicle battery. It also ensures
proper charge time estimates.
When the Charge Cord Limit is changed
from 8 amps to 12 amps on a 120V circuit a
notification is displayed.
If no Home Charge Location is set, the Level
1 Cord Limit will revert to 8 amps every
time the vehicle is shifted out of (P) Park.
Range and charge time estimates fluctuate
depending on a number of factors such as
Charge Cord Level/Limit, battery
temperature, and outside air temperature.
To learn more about the vehicle battery see
Plug-In Charging 0 145.
The peek-in charging screen can be used to
monitor your vehicle’s charge status
remotely, see Instrument Cluster 0 52.

custom charging plan to be set for each day
