Allow the vehicle to warm up
for 20 minutes before driving.
Vehicle Charging/
Maintenance
Charging
Keep the vehicle plugged in,
even when fully charged, to
keep the battery temperature
ready for the next drive. This
is important when outside
temperatures are extremely
hot or cold.
If possible, use a level 2
(240 volt) high power charge
station for best results. This
allows the interior of the
vehicle and high voltage
battery to warm to optimal
temperature.
Maintenance
Always keep the tires properly
inflated and the vehicle
properly aligned.
The weight of excess cargo in
the vehicle affects efficiency
and range. Avoid carrying
more than is needed.Avoid unnecessary use of
electrical accessories. Power
used for functions other than
propelling the vehicle will
reduce the available range.
Using a rooftop carrier will
reduce efficiency due to
additional weight and drag.
Distracted Driving
Distraction comes in many
forms and can take your focus
from the task of driving.
Exercise good judgment and
do not let other activities
divert your attention away
from the road. Many local
governments have enacted
laws regarding driver
distraction. Become familiar
with the local laws in
your area.
To avoid distracted driving,
keep your eyes on the road,
keep your hands on the
steering wheel, and focus your
attention on driving.
.Do not use a mobile phone in
demanding driving situations.
Use a hands-free method to
place or receive necessary
phone calls.
.Watch the road. Do not read,
take notes, or look up
information on mobile
phones or other electronic
devices.
.Designate a front seat
passenger to handle
potential distractions.
.Become familiar with vehicle
features before driving, such
as programming favorite
radio stations and adjusting
climate control and seat
settings. Program all trip
information into any
navigation device prior to
driving.
.Wait until the vehicle is
parked to retrieve items that
have fallen to the floor.
