REDUCED
ACCELERATION DRIVE
WITH CARE
This message displays when
the vehicle's propulsion power
is reduced. A reduction in
propulsion power can affect
the vehicle's ability to
accelerate. If this message is
on, but there is no observed
reduction in performance,
proceed to your destination.
Under certain conditions, the
performance may be reduced
the next time the vehicle is
driven. The vehicle may be
driven while this message is
on, but maximum acceleration
and speed may be reduced.
Anytime this message stayson, or displays repeatedly, the
vehicle should be taken to
your dealer for service as
soon as possible.
This message can be displayed
when the high voltage battery
charge level is low. The vehicle
is limiting power to maximize
range.
Under certain operating
conditions propulsion will be
disabled. Try restarting after
the vehicle has been off for
two minutes.
PROPULSION POWER
REDUCED DUE TO
TEMPERATURE
This message displays when
the vehicle is on, the battery
temperature is low, and when
the vehicle’s performance is
limited. The duration of the
limited vehicle performance
depends, in part, on the high
voltage battery charge level.
If the high voltage battery
charge level is relatively high,
as the vehicle is driven, the

Speed Limiter is turned ON,
the vehicle’s maximum
acceleration will be limited.
The DIC will display a message
that the acceleration is limited.
Teen Driver Speed Warning :
Displays a warning in the DIC
when exceeding a selectable
speed. Turn the speed
warning on or off and choose
the desired speed warning
level. The speed warning does
not limit the speed of the
vehicle. On some infotainment
systems, touch Set Teen

Filter : Allows the SiriusXM
Explicit Content Filter to be
turned ON or OFF. When ON,
the teen driver will not be able
to listen to SiriusXM stations that contain explicit content,
and the Explicit Content Filter
selection in the Audio Settings
will be unavailable for change.
When Teen Driver is Active:
.If equipped, the radio will
mute when the driver seat
belt, and in some vehicles
the front passenger seat
belt, is not buckled. The
audio from any device paired
to the vehicle will also be
muted.
.An object placed on the
front passenger seat, such
as a briefcase, handbag,
grocery bag, laptop, or other
electronic device, could
cause the passenger
sensing system to falsely
sense an unbuckled front
passenger and mute the
radio. If this happens,
remove the object from the
seat. See Passenger
Sensing System
066.
.Some safety systems, such
as Automatic Emergency
Braking, if equipped, cannot
be turned off.
.The gap setting for Adaptive
Cruise Control and alert
timing for Forward Collision
Alert, if equipped, cannot be
changed.
.When trying to change a
safety feature that is not
configurable in Teen Driver,
the feature may be grayed
out or removed from the
infotainment menu, or the
DIC will display a message
indicating that Teen Driver is
active and the action is not
available.
.Super Cruise, if equipped, is
not available.
.Do not tow a trailer if
equipped with Automatic
Emergency Braking.

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.

200 Driving and Operating
.Turn off cruise control.
Hill and Mountain
Roads
{Warning
Do not charge your vehicle’s
battery above an 80%
charge if you are going to
drive down long, steep
grades such as mountain
passes. This provides room
in the battery for
regenerative braking to
supplement your
conventional brakes during
the descent. This is
especially important when
towing a trailer, which puts
additional stress on your
vehicle’s braking system.
If the battery becomes full,
regenerative braking will be
limited or unavailable. The
brakes will have to do all the
work of slowing down the
vehicle and could become(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
too hot. Hot brakes may not
be able to slow the vehicle
enough to maintain speed
and control. To help avoid
the risk of a crash, limit the
battery’s charge and, if you
experience brake fade or
receive a brake warning,
stop the vehicle and allow
the brakes to cool.
See“Charge Now” under
Charging 0123 for
information on setting
charge limits.
Driving on steep hills or
through mountains is different
than driving on flat or rolling
terrain. Be sure to:
.Use regenerative braking to
help slow the vehicle or
maintain speed by keeping
the vehicle in gear and
limiting the initial battery
charge to 80% or less.
.When braking is necessary,
use frequent, light taps of
the brake pedal. This
maximizes regenerative
braking and minimizes the
load on the vehicle brake
system.
.Keep the vehicle serviced
and in good shape.
.Check all fluid levels, brakes,
tires and cooling system.
.Drive at speeds that keep
the vehicle in its own lane.
Do not swing wide or cross
the center line.
.Be alert on top of hills;
something could be in your
lane (e.g., stalled car, crash).
.Pay attention to special road
signs (e.g., falling rocks area,
winding roads, long grades,
passing or no-passing zones)
and take appropriate action.

Driving and Operating 201
Winter Driving
Driving on Snow or IceCaution
To avoid damage to the
wheels and brake
components, always clear
snow and ice from inside the
wheels and underneath the
vehicle before driving.
Snow or ice between the tires
and the road creates less
traction or grip, so drive
carefully. Wet ice can occur at
about 0°C (32°F) when
freezing rain begins to fall.
Avoid driving on wet ice or in
freezing rain until roads can be
treated.
For Slippery Road Driving:
.Turn off cruise control.
.If enabled, turn off
One-Pedal Driving. See
One-Pedal Driving 0214
.If turned off, turn on the
Traction Control and the
Electronic Stability Control systems. See Traction
Control/Electronic Stability
Control
0221.
.Select the Snow/Ice driver
mode. See Driver Mode
Control 0223.
.Accelerate gently.
Accelerating too quickly
causes the wheels to spin
and makes the surface under
the tires slick.
.Allow greater following
distance and watch for
slippery spots. Icy patches
can occur on otherwise clear
roads in shaded areas. The
surface of a curve or an
overpass can remain icy
when the surrounding roads
are clear. Avoid sudden
steering maneuvers and
braking while on ice.
.Antilock Brake System (ABS)
improves vehicle stability
during hard stops, but the
brakes should be applied
sooner than when on dry
pavement. See Antilock
Brake System (ABS) 0216.
Blizzard Conditions
If you become stranded or
cannot continue driving due to
winter storm conditions, stop
the vehicle in a safe place and
signal for help. Stay with the
vehicle unless there is help
nearby.
If you stay in your vehicle
while waiting, signal for help
and keep everyone in the
vehicle safe by turning on the
hazard warning flashers and
tying a red cloth to an outside
mirror.
To conserve battery energy
while waiting for help, run the
vehicle for only short periods
as needed to warm the vehicle
and then shut the vehicle off
and partially close the window.
Moving about to keep warm
also helps. For additional tips
to help conserve battery
energy in cold weather, see
Driving for Better Energy
Efficiency 0193.
