•When the front passenger sensingsystem enables the front passengerfrontal airbag, the passenger airbagstatus indicator illuminates the onlamp.
If a person of adult size is sitting in the frontpassenger seat, but the passenger airbagstatus indicator off lamp is illuminated, itis possible that the person is not sittingproperly in the seat. If this happens:
•Switch your vehicle off and ask theperson to place the seat backrest in anupright position.
•Have the person sit upright in the seat,centered on the seat cushion, with theperson's legs comfortably extended.
•Restart your vehicle and have theperson remain in this position for abouttwo minutes. This allows the systemto detect that person and enable thepassenger frontal airbag.
•If the indicator off lamp remainsilluminated even after this, you shouldadvise the person to ride in the rearseat.
After all occupants have adjusted theirseats and put on seatbelts, it is veryimportant that they continue to sit upright,leaning against the seat backrest, andcentered on the seat cushion, with theirfeet comfortably extended on the floor.
Sitting improperly can increase the chanceof injury in a crash event. For example, ifan occupant slouches, lies down, turnssideways, sits forward, leans forward orsideways, or puts one or both feet up, thechance of injury during a crash greatlyincreases.
If you think that the state of the passengerairbag status indicator lamp is incorrect,check for the following:
•Objects lodged underneath the seat.
•Objects between the seat cushion andthe center console.
•Objects hanging off the seat backrest.
•Objects stowed in the seat backrestmap pocket.
•Objects placed on the occupant's lap.
•Cargo interference with the seat
•Other passengers pushing or pulling onthe seat.
•Rear passenger feet and knees restingor pushing on the seat.
The listed conditions could cause theweight of a properly seated occupant tobe incorrectly interpreted by the frontpassenger sensing system. The person inthe front passenger seat could appearheavier or lighter due to the conditionslisted.
Make sure the front passengersensing system is operatingproperly. See Crash Sensorsand Airbag Indicator (page 63).
If the airbag readiness light is on, do thefollowing:
•Pull your vehicle over.
•Switch your vehicle off.
•Check for any objects lodgedunderneath the front passenger seator cargo interfering with the seat.
•Remove the obstruction if found.
•Restart your vehicle.
•Wait at least two minutes and verifythat the airbag readiness light in theinstrument cluster is no longerilluminated.
•If the airbag readiness light in theinstrument cluster remains illuminated,there may be a problem due to thefront passenger sensing system.
Do not attempt to repair or service thesystem. Take your vehicle in for serviceimmediately.

CRASH SENSORS AND
AIRBAG INDICATOR
WARNING: Modifying or addingequipment to the front of your vehiclecould affect the performance of theairbag system, increasing the risk ofinjury. This includes the hood, bumpersystem, frame, front body structure, towhooks, hood pins, push bar andsnowplows.
Your vehicle has a collection of crash andoccupant sensors. These sensors provideinformation to the restraints controlmodule which activates the following:
•Front and rear seatbelt pretensioners.
•Driver airbag.
•Passenger airbag.
•Knee airbag(s).
•Front and rear seat mounted sideairbags.
•Adaptive steering column.
•Safety Canopy.
Based on the type of crash, the restraintscontrol module deploys the appropriatesafety devices.
The restraints control module alsomonitors the readiness of the above safetydevices plus the crash and occupantsensors. This module indicates thereadiness of the safety system bydisplaying a warning indicator light in theinstrument cluster. If the warning light isnot working, the system sounds a tone asa backup. Routine maintenance of theairbag is not required.
A difficulty with the system is indicated byone or more of the following:
The readiness light will notilluminate immediately after youswitch the power on.
•The readiness light either flashes orstays on.
•You hear a series of five tones. Thetone pattern repeats periodically untilthe problem, the light or both arerepaired.
If any of these things happen, evenintermittently, have the supplementalrestraint system serviced immediately.Unless serviced, the system may notfunction properly in the event of a crash.
The fact that the seatbelt pretensionersor front airbags did not activate for bothfront seat occupants in a crash does notmean that something is wrong with thesystem. Rather, it means the restraintscontrol module determined the accidentconditions (crash severity, seatbelt usage)were not appropriate to activate thesesafety devices.
•The front airbags activate only infrontal and near-frontal crashes. Frontairbags may activate in rollovers, sideimpacts or rear impacts if the crashcauses sufficient frontal deceleration.
•The seatbelt pretensioners activate infrontal, near-frontal and side crashes,and in rollovers.
•The knee airbag deploys based oncrash severity and occupant conditions.
•The side airbags inflate in certain sideimpact crashes or rollover events. Sideairbags may activate in other types ofcrashes if the vehicle experiencessufficient sideways motion ordeformation.
•The Safety Canopy inflates in certainside impact crashes or rollover events.The Safety Canopy may activate inother types of crashes if the vehicleexperiences sufficient sideways motionor deformation, or a certain likelihoodof rollover.

POWER GAUGE - GT
The power gauge displays the amount ofpower going to the wheels whenaccelerating or maintaining speed. Whenthe system limits the available maximumpower, the right side of the gauge showsgray lines representing the proportionalreduction in available power. When slowingdown by lifting your foot off the acceleratorpedal or pressing the brake, the gaugedisplays the amount of power theregenerative system captures and returnsto the high voltage battery.
SPEEDOMETER
Indicates the vehicle speed.
VEHICLE RANGE DISPLAY
Displays the approximate range yourvehicle can travel on the battery's currentstate of charge. Estimates vary based onthe energy used when driving and theenergy available in the high voltage battery.
The amount of energy being used whendriving is affected by:
•Mild or aggressive acceleration orbraking.
•Your vehicle's speed.
•Use of accessories, such as climatecontrol.
•Ambient temperature and weatherconditions.
•Driving in a city or on a highway.
•Driving on flat or hilly roads.
•Towing.
The available energy capacity in the highvoltage battery is affected by coldtemperatures and battery degradation.See Preserving Your High VoltageBattery (page 166).
When your navigation system has an activeroute the distance to your destination ornext charging station is displayed.
Note:It is normal for the vehicle rangeestimates to vary due to changes in averageenergy usage and battery temperature. Thiscould cause different range estimates eachtime you fully charge your battery. SeeMaximizing Your Driving Range (page 302).
Note:When you leave your vehicleunplugged, it periodically uses energy fromthe high voltage battery to recharge the12-volt accessory battery, resulting in areduced driving range.
HIGH VOLTAGE BATTERY
GAUGE
Displays the high voltage battery state ofcharge in the form of a gauge or apercentage. A full fill or 100% chargerepresents the total amount of energy youcan get from plugging your vehicle in.
The gauge is normally blue. When a lowbattery condition is reached the gauge isamber. When the battery is depleted thegauge is red.
When the full battery gauge is displayedand your navigation system has an activeroute, a symbol is added that representsthe battery charge level needed to reachyour destination or next charging station.
Charging Status
Additional charge information displayswhen you power on your vehicle withoutpressing the brake pedal and your vehicleis plugged in. Charging status includes thecharge start or charge end time asappropriate. When DC charging, the time

at 80% displays followed by the time at100%. You can modify your vehicle chargesettings on the information andentertainment display. See Setting theCharging Schedule and Preferences(page 184).
Charge Required to Reach Destination
When the navigation system has an activeroute, the instrument cluster displays thecharge level required in order to reach yourdestination and the time when that chargelevel is available.
