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 the state 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 Center
(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. In some cases, it can temporarily
reduce the power demands of some
accessories.
These actions occur in steps or levels
without being noticeable. In rare cases at
the highest levels of corrective action, this
action may be noticeable to the driver. If so,
a DIC battery voltage and charging message
displays. It is recommended that the driver
reduce the electrical loads as much as
possible. See
Driver Information Center (DIC)
(Base Level) 0129 or
Driver Information Center (DIC) (Uplevel)
0 130.
Battery Power Protection
This feature helps prevent the battery from
being drained if the interior courtesy lamps
or reading lamps are accidentally left on.
If any of these lamps are left on, they
automatically turn off after 10 minutes when
the vehicle is turned off. The lamps will not
come back on again until one of the
following occurs:
.The vehicle is started.
.The doors are closed and then re-opened.

reduce interference, some static can occur,
especially around tall buildings or hills,
causing the sound to fade in and out.
AM
The range for most AM stations is greater
than for FM, especially at night. The longer
range can cause station frequencies to
interfere with each other. Static can also
occur when things like storms and power
lines interfere with radio reception. When
this happens, try reducing the treble on the
radio.
SiriusXM Satellite Radio Service
If equipped, SiriusXM Satellite Radio Service
provides digital radio reception. Tall
buildings or hills can interfere with satellite
radio signals, causing the sound to fade in
and out. In addition, traveling or standing
under heavy foliage, bridges, garages,
or tunnels may cause loss of the SiriusXM
signal for a period of time. Some cellular
services may interfere with SXM reception
causing loss of signal.
Mobile Device Usage
Mobile device usage, such as making or
receiving calls, charging, or just having the
mobile device on may cause static
interference in the radio. Unplug the mobile
device or turn it off if this happens.
Multi-Band Antenna
The multi-band roof antenna may be used
for radio, navigation, and other
communication systems, depending on the
equipped options. To ensure clear reception,
keep the antenna clear of obstructions, such
as snow and ice. If the vehicle has a
sunroof, and it is open, or a roof loaded
with cargo, reception may be affected.
Audio Players
Avoiding Untrusted Media Devices
When using media devices such as USB and
mobile devices, consider the source.
Untrusted media devices could contain files

182 Driving and Operating
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 driving range.
SeeBattery Gauge (High Voltage) 0110.
Outside Temperature
In cold weather conditions, it is best to plug
in the vehicle overnight, then remote start
the vehicle.
Allow the vehicle to warm up for
20 minutes before driving.
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 the optimal
temperature.
In colder temperatures, while these
efficiency tips will help, the driving range
will be lower due to higher energy usage
including energy spent heating the cabin.
Vehicle Charging/Maintenance
Charging
Keep the vehicle plugged in, even when fully
charged, to maintain the battery
temperature ready for the next drive. This is
important when outside temperatures are
extremely hot or cold.
Maintenance
Always keep the tires properly inflated and
aligned.
Avoid unnecessary use of electrical
accessories. Power used for functions other
than propelling the vehicle will reduce
driving range.
Cargo Weight
The weight of excess cargo in the vehicle
affects efficiency and driving range. Avoid
carrying more than is needed.
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 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 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.
.Stop or park the vehicle to tend to
children.

190 Driving and Operating
{Warning
Wet brakes can cause crashes. They
might not work as well in a quick stop
and could cause pulling to one side. You
could lose control of the vehicle.
After driving through a large puddle of
water or a car/vehicle wash, lightly apply
the brake pedal until the brakes work
normally.
Flowing or rushing water creates strong
forces. Driving through flowing water
could cause the vehicle to be carried
away. If this happens, you and other
vehicle occupants could drown. Do not
ignore police warnings and be very
cautious about trying to drive through
flowing water.
Hydroplaning
Hydroplaning is dangerous. Water can build
up under the vehicle's tires so they actually
ride on the water. This can happen when
the road is wet and you are driving fast.
When the vehicle is hydroplaning, it has
little or no contact with the road.There is no hard and fast rule about
hydroplaning. The best advice is to slow
down when the road is wet.
Other Rainy Weather Tips
Besides slowing down, other wet weather
driving tips include:
.Allow extra following distance.
.Pass with caution.
.Keep windshield wiping equipment in
good shape, and keep the windshield
washer fluid reservoir filled.
.Ensure the tires are maintained and have
proper tread depth. See
Tires0344.
.Turn off any cruise control, if equipped.
See Adaptive Cruise Control (Advanced)
0 217 or
Super Cruise 0227.
.Turn off One-Pedal Driving mode. See
One-Pedal Driving 0203.
.Turn on the Traction Control System (TCS)
and the Electronic Stability Control (ESC).
See Traction Control/Electronic Stability
Control 0207.
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 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” underCharging 0123
for information on setting charge limits.

See“Charge Now” underCharging 0123
for information on setting charge limits.
See Hill and Mountain Roads 0190 for
important information about driving on
grades.
The brake system uses regenerative braking,
conventional hydraulic braking, or a
combination of both as appropriate.
Regen on Demand
If equipped, Regen on Demand allows
increased deceleration by pressing and
holding the steering wheel paddle. It works
in D (Drive) and L (Low). The accelerator
pedal can be used to manage deceleration
while using Regen on Demand. See
One-Pedal Driving 0203.
If the vehicle is brought to a complete stop
while the Regen on Demand paddle is held,
the vehicle will not creep forward when the
paddle is released. The accelerator pedal
must be pressed to move the vehicle
forward.
If the vehicle is on a steep grade, the brake
pedal must be used to hold the vehicle. When available regenerative braking power
is limited, the hydraulic brakes may be
applied to make up the difference.
Cruise control will turn off and the brake
lamps may come on when this feature is
activated.
Avoid using Regen on Demand under
slippery road conditions. Use the brake
pedal as the primary braking device.
Ride Control Systems
Traction Control/Electronic
Stability Control
System Operation
The vehicle has a Traction Control System
(TCS) and Electronic Stability Control (ESC).
These systems help limit wheel spin and
assist the driver in maintaining control,
especially on slippery road conditions.
TCS activates if it senses any of the drive
wheels are spinning or beginning to lose
traction. When this happens, TCS applies the
brakes to the spinning wheels and reduces
vehicle power to limit wheel spin.
