Instrument Panel State Of Charge Indicator
•In addition to the instrument cluster the vehicle is also equipped with a State Of
Charge indicator.The indicator is made up of five lights that are mounted to the cen-
ter of the instrument panel.
•The State Of Charge indicator repre-
sents the current state of charge for the
high voltage battery.The indicator lights
quickly identify the battery state of
charge while the vehicle is being
charged.Each light represents an incre-
mental 20% level of charge.Solid and
blinking lights indicate charge status simi-
lar to a mobile device.
NOTE:
In the event of an error in the charging
process the outer two lights will blink.
Number Of Indicator Lights Illuminated Percent Of Battery Charge
1 Light 0 – 20%
2 Lights 21 – 40%
3 Lights 41 – 60%
4 Lights 61 – 80%
5 Lights 81 – 100%

VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM
The Vehicle Security Alarm monitors the vehicle doors for unauthorized entry and the
ignition for unauthorized operation.If something triggers the alarm, the Vehicle Security
Alarm will provide the following audible 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 The System:
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.

•Child Restraints

Page 27 of 132

WARNING!
•Side Air Bags need room to inflate.Do not lean against the door or window.Sit
upright in the center of the seat.
•Being too close to the Side Air Bags during deployment could cause you to be
severely injured or killed.
•Relying on the Side Air Bags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a collision.
The Side Air Bags work with your seat belt to restrain you properly.In some colli-
sions, Side Air Bags won’t deploy at all.Always wear your seat belt even though
you have Side Air Bags.
•This vehicle is equipped with left and right Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable
Curtains (SABICs).Do not stack luggage or other cargo up high enough to block
the deployment of the SABICs.The trim covering above the side windows where
the SABIC and its deployment path are located should remain free from any ob-
structions.
•This vehicle is equipped with SABICs.In order for the SABICs to work as in-
tended, do not install any accessory items in your vehicle which could alter the
roof.Do not add an aftermarket sunroof to your vehicle.Do not add roof racks
that require permanent attachments (bolts or screws) for installation on the ve-
hicle roof.Do not drill into the roof of the vehicle for any reason.
•Do not use accessory seat covers or place objects between you and the Side Air
Bags; the performance could be adversely affected and/or objects could be pushed
into you, causing serious injury.
Enhanced Accident Response System
In the event of an impact, if the communication network remains intact, and the power
remains intact, depending on the nature of the event, the ORC will determine whether
to have the Enhanced Accident Response System perform the following functions:
•Cut off battery power to the motor.
•Flash hazard lights as long as the battery has power or until the hazard light button is
pressed.The hazard lights can be deactivated by pressing the hazard light button.
•Turn on the interior lights, which remain on as long as the battery has power.
•Unlock the power door locks.
Enhanced Accident Response System Reset Procedure
After an event occurs requiring activation of the Enhanced Accident Response System,
when the system is active, a “Service EV System” message” will be displayed on the in-
strument cluster.The vehicle is not drivable in this state and must be towed to an autho-
rized dealer immediately to be inspected and have the Enhanced Accident Response Sys-
tem reset.
