Some 2017-2019 Bolt EV models may not have charged to a full charge level, as shown on the power indicator gauge on the instrument cluster, after a complete vehicle charge event. The top indicator bar on the charge gauge will not be illuminated.
The vehicle may not charge to full capacity based on the vehicle settings. These settings differ based on model year.
2017-2018 Models
如果车辆未满负荷充电，请检查是否选择了山顶备用设置。当充电后立即从更高的海拔行驶时，山顶储备使再生制动效率最大化。当此功能打开时，充电将在高压蓄电池充满电之前停止，这将为再生制动提供能量空间。
TIP:Regenerative power may be limited when the battery is near a full charge or cold. The regen battery icon in the power indicator gauge will appear gray when limited.
To check if the Hill Top Reserve setting is on, press the Energy button on the infotainment screen and then select Energy settings > Hill Top Reserve. (Fig. 6) Press the On/Off button to select or deselect the setting.

2019 Models
If the vehicle is not charging to full capacity, the Target Charge Level may be activated and set to a lower charge rate than 100%. With this setting, a reminder will be displayed on the instrument cluster indicating Target Charge Level Active.
The Target Charge Level allows the charging range to be set based on what is needed. For example, when charging at a public pay station and a full charge is not needed, the Target Charge Level can be set to only get as much range as needed.
To determine if the Target Charge Level is turned on, press the Energy button on the infotainment screen and then select Charging > Target Charge Level. Adjust the charge level to the desired level of charging capacity using the plus/minus buttons on the screen. (Fig. 7)
