STARTING YOUR 500e
•Before starting your vehicle, adjust your seat, adjust both inside and outside mirrors,
and fasten your seat belts.
WARNING!
•Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle.
•Allowing children to be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number of rea-
sons.A child or others could be seriously or fatally injured.Children should be
warned not to touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the shift buttons.
•Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle (or in a location accessible to chil-
dren).A child could operate power windows, other controls, or move the vehicle.
NOTE:
Make sure the EVSE is not plugged into the vehicle.
•Turn the key to the START position while your vehicle is in PARK.When the ignition
key is turned to the START and then the RUN position, the “READY” indicator in the
Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) will illuminate to indicate the 500e's Elec-
tric Drive System has started.
•When the “READY” indicator is illuminated, your 500e is ready to be driven.
•If the “READY” indicator fails to illumi-
nate after you have followed the normal
starting procedure, contact your autho-
rized dealer.
NOTE:
You must push the brake pedal before
shifting out of PARK.

VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM
The Vehicle Security Alarm monitors the vehicle doors for unauthorized entry and the
Keyless Enter-N-Go™ START/STOP button for unauthorized operation.While the Vehicle
Security Alarm is armed, interior switches for door locks and decklid release are disabled.
If something triggers the alarm, the Vehicle Security Alarm will provide the following au-
dible and visible signals: the horn will pulse, the park lamps and/or turn signals will flash,
and the Vehicle Security Light in the instrument cluster will flash.
To Arm:
Push the Key Fob LOCK button.
To Disarm The System:
Push the Key Fob UNLOCK button or cycle the ignition to the ON/RUN position.
The Vehicle Security Alarm is designed to protect your vehicle.However, you can create
conditions where the Vehicle Security Alarm will give you a false alarm.If one of the pre-
viously described arming sequences has occurred, the Vehicle Security Alarm will arm re-
gardless of whether you are in the vehicle or not.If you remain in the vehicle and open
a door, the alarm will sound.If this occurs, disarm the Vehicle Security Alarm.
If the Vehicle Security Alarm is armed and the battery becomes disconnected, the Vehicle
Security Alarm will remain armed when the battery is reconnected.The exterior lights
will flash, and the horn will sound.If this occurs, disarm the Vehicle Security Alarm.
POWER DOOR LOCKS
The vehicles power door locks are activated by moving the inside door handles.
Push or pull the driver’s door handle to lock or unlock the doors and liftgate when the
doors are closed.
SEAT BELT SYSTEMS
Lap/Shoulder Belts
•All seating positions in your vehicle are equipped with lap/shoulder belts.
•Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly.
•Position the lap belt so that it is snug and lies low across your hips, below your abdo-
men.To remove slack in the lap belt portion, pull up on the shoulder belt.To loosen
the lap belt if it is too tight, tilt the latch plate and pull on the lap belt.A snug seat belt
reduces the risk of sliding under the seat belt in a collision.
•Position the shoulder belt across the shoulder and chest with minimal, if any slack so
that it is comfortable and not resting on your neck.The retractor will withdraw any
slack in the shoulder belt.

Advanced Front Air Bags
•This vehicle has Advanced Front Air Bags for both the driver and front passenger as a
supplement to the seat belt restraint systems.The Advanced Front Air Bags will not
deploy in every type of collision.
•Advanced Front Air Bags are designed to provide additional protection by supplement-
ing the seat belts.Advanced Front Air Bags are not expected to reduce the risk of
injury in rear, side, or rollover collisions.
•The Advanced Front Air Bags will not deploy in all frontal collisions, including some that
may produce substantial vehicle damage — for example, some pole collisions, truck
underrides, and angle offset collisions.
•On the other hand, depending on the type and location of impact, Advanced Front Air
Bags may deploy in crashes with little vehicle front-end damage but that produce a
severe initial deceleration.
•Because air bag sensors measure vehicle deceleration over time, vehicle speed and
damage by themselves are not good indicators of whether or not an air bag should
have deployed.
•Seat belts are necessary for your protection in all collisions, and also are needed to
help keep you in position, away from an inflating air bag.
•The air bags must be ready to inflate for your protection in a collision.The Occupant
Restraint Controller (ORC) monitors the internal circuits and interconnecting wiring
associated with air bag system electrical components.
•The ORC turns on the Air Bag Warning Light in the instrument panel for approxi-
mately four to eight seconds for a self-check when the ignition switch is first turned to
the ON/RUN position.After the self-check, the Air Bag Warning Light will turn off.
If the ORC detects a malfunction in any part of the system, it turns on the Air Bag
Warning Light, either momentarily or continuously.A single chime will sound to alert
you if the light comes on again after initial startup.
•The ORC monitors the readiness of the electronic parts of the air bag system when-
ever the ignition switch is in the START or ON/RUN position.If the ignition switch is
in the OFF position or in the ACC position, the air bag system is not on and the air
bags will not inflate.
•If the Air Bag Warning Light in the instrument panel is not on during the four to eight
seconds when the ignition switch is first turned to the ON/RUN position, stays on, or
turns on while driving, have the vehicle serviced by an authorized service center imme-
diately.
NOTE:
If the speedometer, tachometer, or any engine related gauges are not working, the Occu-
pant Restraint Controller (ORC) may also be disabled.In this condition the air bags may
not be ready to inflate for your protection.Have an authorized dealer service the air bag
system immediately.
