HOW TO DETERMINE IF CHARGE IS AT 100%

After charging is 100% complete, the Charger Connected icon will be the only thing lit and the bar graph will not be illuminated. A green light on the charger itself will also illuminate when the car is 100% charged. To know if the charging process is complete, all ten bars on the State of Charge Indicator should be illuminated when the car is turned on. If neither the Charger Connected icon nor the State of Charge Indicators are illuminated, the charger may not be charging. If this occurs, make sure the Main Disconnect Switch is in the ON position. More information on the charger and charging of the batteries is discussed on pages 76-81 of the Owner’s Manual.
