EXTENDING YOUR DRIVING RANGE PER CHARGE
•A little knowledge will go a long way to extend your driving range on the 500e.First
and foremost understand that the drive system and cabin temperature management
features use the most energy from the high voltage battery.Reducing energy draw
from these features are the easiest and most effective way to extend driving range.
•Just like a conventional vehicle, 500e likes to keeps things smooth and steady for most
efficient operation.When driving, avoid aggressive driving styles and high speeds for
extended times.When practical, choose surface streets over the highway, work to
maintain a steady speed to extend range.
•The 500e uses high voltage components to heat and cool the cabin, so a little aware-
ness can go a long way to extend range.When using automatic climate control, con-
sider setting temperatures a few degrees higher or lower during hot and cold days.
If your 500e has been soaking in hot or cold temperatures for an extended period, it
is recommended that the car be preconditioned via the mobile application while still
plugged into a charging source.This will allow 500e to use external power to establish
a comfortable cabin temperature before the drive, and allow the battery to maintain
the temperature using significantly less energy.
Additional Tips:
•Keep tires properly inflated
•Avoid carrying nonessential cargo
•Be mindful of adding external accessories that may increase aerodynamic drag
•Perform all scheduled maintenance at recommended intervals
Driver Behavior Gauge
•To help the driver extend the driving
range of the high voltage battery your
vehicle is equipped with a Driver Behav-
ior Gauge.The Driver Behavior Gauge is
located on the right side of the instru-
ment cluster and displays three driving
ranges:

•The Driver Behavior Gauge will move
into the Power range when under
acceleration.
