*IF EQUIPPED SOUL EV FE ATURES & FUNCTIONS GUIDE
Driving while distracted can result in a loss of vehicle control that may lead to an accident, severe personal injury and death. The driver’s primary responsibility is in the safe and legal operation of a vehicle, and use of any handheld devices, other equipment or vehicle systems which take the driver’s eyes, attention and focus away from the safe operation of a vehicle or that are not permissible by law should never be used during operation of the vehicle.

The indicator functions as both Low Tire Pressure
Light and TPMS Malfunction Indicator
The TPMS indicator illuminates if one or more tires is
significantly underinflated, the vehicle has a spare tire
installed without TPMS or the outside temperature becomes
significantly lower
Inflate tire(s) to specifications using an accurate digital tire
pressure gauge to turn off Low Tire Pressure Light See
front driver’s door jamb for PSI specification
When there is a problem with the TPMS, the TPMS
Malfunction Indicator will blink for approximately one minute
and then illuminate - see dealer for service
REMINDER: Consult your dealer for service if Low Tire Pressure Light remains illuminated after inflating your tire(s)
There are several factors that contribute to your electric
vehicle’s energy consumption, including maintenance
of your vehicle, driving style, environmental conditions,
vehicle weight and vehicle aerodynamics
Below are tips on how to help reduce
energy consumption:
•Keep your vehicle in good condition with
regular maintenance
•Don’t “ride” the brake pedal
•Drive at a moderate speed, accelerating smoothly
and at a moderate rate
•Keep tires inflated to the recommended pressure
•Travel lightly, without carrying unnecessary weight
in your vehicles
•Ensure wheels are aligned correctly
•Avoid placing large or heavy items on roof racks
•Avoid hilly, winding or poorly maintained roads
REMINDER: Do not turn the vehicle off by pushing the POWER button while the vehicle is in motion If the vehicle has been turned off the power brake and power steering system cannot operate
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)Energy Consumption
•
•Even with TPMS, tire pressure should be checked manually at least once a month Only adjust Tire Pressure on “cold tires” •For proper maintenance and optimal fuel economy, maintain recommended tire inflation pressures and stay within the load limits and weight distribution recommended for your vehicle •In winter or cold weather, the TPMS light may illuminate if the tire pressure was adjusted to the recommended tire inflation pressure during warm weather
