Remote Start
This feature starts the heating
or air conditioning systems
and the rear window defogger
from outside the vehicle.
If the outside temperature is
below 7°C (45°F), and the rear
window defogger is on, the
area of the windshield beneath the windshield wipers
will warm up to melt
accumulated snow or ice.
Use remote start to heat or
cool the interior when the
vehicle is plugged in to
maximize electric range by
utilizing electricity from the
electrical outlet. Normal
system operation will return
after the vehicle has been
turned on.
/:
This button is on the
remote key.
The climate control system will
use the previous settings
during a remote start. The
rear defog may come on
during a remote start based
on cold ambient conditions.
The rear defog indicator light
will not come on during a
remote start.

This displays the high voltage
battery state of charge. The
value at the bottom is an
estimate of how far the
vehicle can be driven on the
remaining charge based on
recent driving habits,
conditions, and HVAC usage.
The fill bars shown inside of
the gauge indicate
the percentage range as
estimated from current vehicle
conditions and climate
settings. The range estimate
on the bottom also may be
affected by climate settings,
current vehicle conditions and
ambient conditions. Estimated
range may increase and
decrease based on climate
control energy consumption.
Driving aggressively through
hard acceleration and/or
braking events, excessive
HVAC usage, using heated or
cooled seats, battery
preconditioning, and
performance modes can affect
vehicle range estimates.When the high voltage battery
state of charge level gets low,
the gauge will change color to
amber. When the charge is
very low the gauge will flash,
and the estimated range value
on the bottom will change to
LOW. Additional alerts may
display and a sound may also
be heard at low state of
charge.
Power Indicator
Gauge
Tour Mode Gauge View
Shown, Others Similar The power indicator gauge is
in the center of the display to
the left of the speedometer in
the Tour mode gauge view.
This gauge displays the
instantaneous charge and
consumption power of the
high voltage battery. Maximum
power consumption is
available when the high
voltage battery is fully
charged. During normal
operation, a slight reduction in
consumption power may occur
as the high voltage battery
state of charge decreases.
Regenerative Braking
When regenerative (regen)
braking is active, the regen
battery icon displays and will
fill the lower section of the
gauge. The power indicator
gauge value shows the
amount of instantaneous
power being regenerated.

Battery Load
Management
The vehicle has Electric Power
Management (EPM) that
estimates the battery
temperature and state of
charge. It then adjusts the
voltage for best performance
and extended life of the 12–
volt battery
When the battery state of
charge is low, the voltage is
raised slightly to quickly
increase the charge. When thestate of charge is high, the
voltage is lowered slightly to
prevent over charging. As this
adjustment occurs, you may
see the voltage move up or
down on the voltmeter gauge
or voltage display on the
Driver Information (DIC),
if equipped. This is normal. If a
problem occurs, an alert will be
displayed.
If the electrical loads are very
high, the battery can be
discharged when the vehicle is
stationary. A high electrical
load occurs when several
features are on, such as:
headlamps, high beams, rear
window defogger, climate
control fan at high speed,
heated seats, motor cooling
fans, trailer loads, and loads
plugged into accessory power
outlets.
EPM works to prevent
excessive discharge of the
battery by balancing the
electrical system output and
the vehicle's electrical needs.

air conditioner runs as needed.
@:Press to alternate
between recirculating air
inside the vehicle or pulling in
outside air. The indicator light
on the button is lit when
recirculation mode is active.

The climate control system
uses a sensor to automatically
detect high humidity inside the
vehicle. When high humidity is
detected, the climate control
system may adjust to outside
air supply, turn on the heater
and air conditioner, increase fan and temperature, and
direct more air to the
windshield. When the climate
control system does not
detect possible window
fogging, it returns to normal
operation. To turn Auto Defog
off or on, select Settings >
Climate and Air Quality > Auto
Defog > Select ON or OFF.
If Auto Defog is turned off,

K: Press to turn the rear
window defogger on or off. An
indicator light on the button
comes on to show that the
rear window defogger is on.
The rear window defogger
only works when the vehicle is
on. If the outside temperature
is below 7°C (45°F), and the
rear window defogger is on,
the area of the windshield beneath the windshield wipers
will warm up to melt
accumulated snow or ice.
The rear window defogger can
be set to automatic operation.
When Auto Rear Defog is
selected, the rear window
defogger turns on
automatically when the vehicle
is first started in cold weather
and turns off when the vehicle
is warmed. To turn Auto Rear
Defog off or on, select
Settings > Climate and Air
Quality > Auto Rear Defog >
Select ON or OFF.
The heated outside rearview
mirrors turn on when the rear

This may damage the rear
window defogger grid and
affect the radio's ability to
pick up stations clearly. The
repairs would not be
covered by the vehicle
warranty.
Sensor
The solar sensor, on top of the
instrument panel near the
windshield, monitors the
solar heat.The climate control system
uses the sensor information to
adjust the temperature, fan
speed, recirculation, and air
delivery mode for best
comfort.
If the sensor is covered, the
automatic climate control
system may not work properly.
Remote Start Climate
Control Operation :
The
climate control system may
run when the vehicle is started
remotely. The system uses the
driver’s previous settings to
heat or cool the inside of the
vehicle. The rear defog may
come on during remote start
based on cold ambient
conditions. The rear defog
indicator light does not come
on during a remote start.
If equipped with heated or
cooled seats, they may come
on during a remote start. See
Remote Start 015 and
Heated and Ventilated Front
Seats 045. Afterblow Feature
If equipped, under certain
conditions, the fan may stay
on or may turn on and off
several times after you turn
off and lock the vehicle. This is
normal.
Air Vents
Use the multi-function joystick
control on the front center
and side air vents to change
the direction of the airflow.
Air vents blow warm air on the
side windows in cold weather.
If floor, defog, or defrost
modes are selected, a small
amount of air will come from
the vents close to the window.
To fully open the front A/C
vents, turn the multi-function
joystick control knob until the
indicator points straight up.
To close the front A/C vents,
turn the multi-function joystick
control until the indicator
points to the nine o'clock
position.

194 Driving and Operating
Acceleration/Braking/
Coasting
Avoid rapid accelerations and
decelerations.
Use cruise control when
appropriate.
Plan ahead for decelerations,
and coast whenever possible.
Do not rush to traffic signals,
and do not shift to N (Neutral)
to coast.
Use the One-Pedal Driving
feature when appropriate to
help recover energy during
coasting and braking.
One-Pedal mode recovers
more energy while coasting
and braking than D (Drive)
mode. See One-Pedal Driving
0214.
Use the steering wheel Regen
on Demand paddle during
deceleration to help recover
energy. See Regenerative
Braking 0220. Terrain and Vehicle Speed
Higher speeds and grade
changes use more energy and
can significantly reduce
electric range.
Climate Setting
Using the heat and air
conditioning systems
decreases the energy
available for electric driving.
Optimal energy efficiency is
achieved when the heat, air
conditioning, and fan are
turned off.
Use the heated and ventilated
seat features (if equipped)
instead of the climate control
system. Heating and
ventilating the seat uses less
energy than heating and
cooling the interior. See
Heated and Ventilated Front
Seats
045 and
Heated Rear Seats 049.
Use the Remote Start Climate
Control feature to heat or cool
the interior while the vehicle is
plugged in to use electricity from the electrical outlet
instead of using energy from
the battery. See Remote Start
0
15.
In hot weather, avoid parking
in direct sunlight. Use
sunshades inside the vehicle.
Keep the inside of the
windows clean to reduce
fogging. Turn off the front
defroster and rear defogger
when they are not needed.
Avoid driving with the
windows open at highway
speeds.
Use the Battery Gauge on the
Instrument Cluster to view the
effect of climate control
settings on your estimated
range. See Battery Gauge
(High Voltage) 0110.
Outside Temperature
On colder days, it is best to
plug in the vehicle overnight,
and then remote start the
vehicle.
