Black plate (4,1)Cadillac Escalade Hybrid - 2011
1-4 In Brief Engine OFF and AUTO STOP
modes are indicated on the
tachometer display. When the
tachometer needle indicates OFF,
the engine is not running and will
remain off until the ignition key is
placed in the START position or a
remote vehicle start is performed.
When the tachometer needle
indicates AUTO STOP, the hybrid
system is on, the engine is not
running, but may Auto Start at any
time without notice. See Tachometer
on page 5 ‑ 3 for more information.
A chime will sound if the driver door
is opened while in Auto Stop as a
reminder that the ignition switch is
not in the LOCK/OFF position.
Always turn the ignition switch to
LOCK/OFF and remove the key
from the ignition switch when exiting
the vehicle. Auto Start The vehicle also has an Auto Start
feature. The engine will remain off
while in Auto Stop mode until
vehicle conditions require the
engine to run. The near-instant
starting of the engine from Auto
Stop mode is called Auto Start.
EV Mode The vehicle also has an EV mode
which uses only the electric motor to
move the vehicle. With light
acceleration, the vehicle will drive in
EV mode. EV mode is unavailable
when the vehicle is out of fuel.
For more information on Auto Stop,
Auto Start, and EV Mode, see
Starting the Vehicle on page 9 ‑ 2 .Regenerative Braking Regenerative braking enables the
electric drive motor to operate as a
generator when coasting or braking.
Energy from the moving vehicle
recharges the hybrid battery.
The hydraulic disc brakes work with
the regenerative braking to insure
effective braking.
The braking system is computer
controlled and blends the
regenerative braking with the
conventional hydraulic disc brakes
to meet any requirements for
deceleration. Because the controller
applies the hydraulic brakes through
its high pressure accumulator, you
may occasionally hear the motor
driven pump when it recharges the
system. This is normal. In the event
of a controller problem, the brake
pedal may be harder to push and
the stopping distance may be
longer.
See Regenerative Braking on
page 9 ‑ 16 .

CNTRL Cooling Fan Control Wheels and Tires Tire Pressure Tires need the correct amount of air
pressure to operate effectively.
Notice: Do not let anyone tell
you that under ‐ inflation or
over ‐ inflation is all right. It is
not. If your tires do not have
enough air (under ‐ inflation),
you can get the following: .
Tire overloading and
over-heating which could
lead to a blowout. .
Premature or
irregular wear. .
Poor handling. .
Reduced fuel economy. If your tires have too much air
(over ‐ inflation), you can get
the following: .
Unusual wear. .
Poor handling. .
Rough ride. .
Needless damage from
road hazards. A vehicle specific Tire and Loading
Information label is attached to your
vehicle. This label shows your
vehicle's original equipment tires
and the correct inflation pressures
for your tires when they are cold.
The recommended cold tire inflation
pressure, shown on the label, is the
minimum amount of air pressure
needed to support your vehicle's
maximum load carrying capacity.
