Range (Plug-in hybrid)
The range is the estimated dis-
tance the vehicle can be driven
with the remaining high-voltage
(hybrid) battery (1, Electric) and

510 km
✽ ✽
NOTICE
• If the vehicle is not on level ground
or the battery power has been
interrupted, the range function
may not operate correctly.
• The range may differ from the
actual driving distance as it is an
estimate of the available driving
distance.
• The trip computer may not register
additional fuel if less than 1.6 gal-
lons (6 liters) of fuel are added to
the vehicle.
• The range may vary significantly
based on driving conditions, driv-
ing habits, and condition of the
vehicle.

Air conditioning system operation tips
If the vehicle has been parked in
direct sunlight during hot weather,
open the windows for a short time
to let the hot air inside the vehicle
escape.
To help reduce moisture inside of
the windows on rainy or humid
days, decrease the humidity inside
the vehicle by operating the air
conditioning system.
During air conditioning system
operation, you may occasionally
notice a slight change in engine
speed as the air conditioning com-
pressor cycles. This is a normal
system operation characteristic.
Use the air conditioning system
every month only for a few minutes
to ensure maximum system per-
formance.
When using the air conditioning
system, you may notice clear water
dripping (or even puddling) on the
ground under the passenger side
of the vehicle. This is a normal sys-
tem operation characteristic. Operating the air conditioning sys-
tem in the recirculated air position
provides maximum cooling; howev-
er, continual operation in this mode
may cause the air inside the vehi-
cle to become stale.
During cooling operation, you may
occasionally notice a misty air flow
because of rapid cooling and
humid air intake. This is a normal
system operation characteristic.
Automatic ventilation
The system automatically selects the
outside (fresh) air position when the
climate control system operates over
a certain period of time (5 minutes)
in low temperature with the recircu-
lated air position selected. (when
floor mode or bi-level mode)To cancel or reset the Automatic
Ventilation
When the air conditioning system is
on, select Face Level ( ) mode
and while pressing the A/C button,
press the air intake control button 5
times within 3 seconds.
When the automatic ventilation func-
tion is canceled, the indicator light
blinks 3 times at an interval of 0.5
seconds.
The air intake will be automatically
controlled to the fresh air position,
and the flow and air conditioning will
be automatically controlled.
When the automatic ventilation func-
tion is selected, the indicator light
blinks 6 times at an interval of 0.25
seconds.
The air intake will be automatically
controlled to the fresh air position,
and the flow and air conditioning will
be automatically controlled.
After the battery has been dis-
charged or separated, the automatic
ventilation function will be reset, so
please selected, according to you
preference.

Features of your vehicle
Automatic climate control system
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON
position.
2. Press the defroster button ( ).
3. While pressing the air conditioning
button (A/C), press the air intake
control button at least 5 times with-
in 3 seconds.
The recirculation indicator blinks 3
times with 0.5 second of interval. It
indicates that the defogging logic is
canceled or returned to the pro-
grammed status.
If the battery has been discharged or
disconnected, it resets to the defog
logic status.
Auto defogging system
Auto defogging reduces the probabil-
ity of fogging up the inside of the
windshield by automatically sensing
the moisture of inside the windshield.
The auto defogging system operates
when the heater or air conditioning is
on.This indicator illuminates
when the auto defogging
system senses the mois-
ture on the inside of the
windshield and operates.
If more moisture is in the vehicle,
higher steps operate as follow. For
example if auto defogging does not
defog inside the windshield at step 1
Outside air position, it tries to defog
again at step 2 Operating the air con-
ditioning.
Step 1 : Outside air position
Step 2 : Operating the air condition-
ing
Step 3 : Blowing air flow toward the
windshield
Step 4 : Increasing air flow toward
the windshield
