REMINDERS:
•
If DTE displays “Zero Miles,” you need to charge the vehicle immediately
•
Most electric vehicles can drive an additional t wo to five miles depending on driving conditions
•
Distance to empt y may depend on many factors such as the charge amount of the high voltage bat ter y, weather, temperature, durabilit y of the bat ter y, geographical features, and driving st yle
•Operating the climate control system may reduce the Distance to Empt y
•When decelerating or driving downhill, regenerative braking charges the high voltage bat ter y which minimizes energy loss and increases the Distance to Empt y or Range
•When you set a destination via the on-board navigation system, DTE is calculated based on the route selected. By set ting a final destination, DTE accuracy improves. By knowing the final location, the vehicle can bet ter predict the amount of bat ter y energy it will need to reach that destination
•When operating the climate control, use the DRIVER ONLY function to conser ve energy
•In cold weather, use scheduled heating to reduce the amount of energy consumption
•In the EV Set tings, select WINTER MODE to increase the bat ter y temperature in cold weather
