When you're making the switch to an electric vehicle, understanding how to charge it safely is just as important as knowing how to drive it. Chevrolet Blazer EV charging is straightforward. Chevrolet Van Nuys outlines some basic safety practices worth keeping in mind to help you charge with confidence.
Home Charging Safety
Most Chevrolet Blazer EV owners do their charging at home. Before you start charging regularly, make sure your outlet is properly grounded and can handle the load. If you're adding a Level 2 charger to your home, have a qualified electrician install it. Inspect your charging cable before each use for signs of wear or damage, and store it in a dry place.
Public Charging Station Tips
When using public stations, inspect the cable and connector before you plug in. If anything looks damaged, find another charger. The Chevrolet Blazer EV can use Tesla Superchargers with the included NACS adapter, giving you access to a reliable nationwide network of stations. You can safely sit in the vehicle while charging or step away, but lock it if you leave.
Battery Health Practices
For everyday charging, Chevrolet recommends keeping your Chevrolet Blazer EV's battery between 20% and 80%. This helps maintain battery health over time. Save the full charges for longer trips when you need the extra range. If you're parking in extreme temperatures, keep it plugged in so the battery can condition itself using power from the charger.
