Instruments and Controls 1. Press the color bar for weekday or weekend. . 5-27 Weekdays are Monday through Friday and use the same rate schedule. Weekends are Saturday and Sunday and use the same rate schedule. Both weekday and weekend schedules must be set.

Priority Charging The priority charging feature will work in Departure Time and Rate & Departure Time charging modes. This feature is designed to ensure that the high voltage battery pack has a minimal amount of energy prior to delaying a charge. Upon completion of priority charging the vehicle will return to normal Programmable Charging operation. The feature can be enabled/ disabled by selecting On/Off from the settings screens. When enabled, Priority Charging will only prevent Programmable Charging while the battery is recharged from a depleted state to a level allowing 40% of the driving range. Temporary Charge Mode Override and Cancel Programmed delayed charge modes can be temporarily overridden to an immediate charge mode for one charge cycle. Also, the next planned departure time can be temporarily overridden for one charge cycle. In addition to the in-vehicle overrides via the center stack, there are other ways to temporarily override a delayed charge mode. See Plug-In Charging on page 9-32. Temporary Override of a Delayed Charge Mode Delayed charge can be overridden from outside the vehicle by plugging in the vehicle, disconnecting the connector, and then immediately plugging back in again. .
