HIGH VOLTAGE CHARGING OPERATION
SAE J1772 CHARGING INLET
Your vehicle uses an industry standard SAE
J1772 charge inlet (vehicle charge inlet) for both AC
Level 1 (120 V), and AC Level 2 (240 V) charging.
Open the charge port door by pushing near the rear
outer edge of the door, near the center to unlatch. To
close the charge port door, engage the door latch by
pushing on the rear outer edge near the center.
AC LEVEL 1 CHARGING (120 VOLT,
12 AMP)
Your vehicle may be equipped with a 120 Volt AC, SAE
J1772 Level 1 Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment
(EVSE), also referred to as a Portable Charging Cordset
(EVSE). AC Level 1 charging requires a conventional
NEMA 5-15R 120 Volt AC grounded wall outlet along
with the Portable Charging Cordset (EVSE) provided
with the vehicle.
