QR CODEEnergy Consumption
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)
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)
•
•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

QR CODEActive ECO System
Soul EV is equipped with an ECO feature that improves energy
efficiency and helps extend battery life The Active ECO System
helps reduce energy consumption by controlling several vehicle
components When activated, it optimizes drivetrain operations
to help improve energy economy
Active ECO System ON results in reduced torque, higher energy
efficiency, and enhanced regenerative braking
Active ECO System OFF results in more torque, lower energy
efficiency, and reduced regenerative braking
The Active ECO System is activated by pressing the ACTIVE ECO
button A (LED illuminated) and can be deactivated by pressing the
button again (LED not illuminated) The green ECO indicator light B in
the instrument cluster will illuminate, indicating that ECO is operating
Regenerative Brake Mode “B” – Move the
gear shift to the “B” position C to enter the
maximum regenerative braking drive mode
This mode helps to minimize energy loss and
increase the distance to empty
To help reduce energy consumption:
•Drive at a moderate speed, accelerating smoothly and at a moderate rate
•Keep tires inflated to the recommended pressure and wheels aligned properly
•Be sure the wheels are properly aligned
QUICK TIPS
REMINDER: When Active ECO is activated and the Power button is cycled, the Active ECO system remains ON
For more information on the Active ECO System, refer to your Owner’s Manual or contact your local dealership.

C Sealant Bottle
D Compressor

•The Tire Mobility Kit is a temporary fix and is to be used for one tire only; the tire should be inspected as soon as possible •The kit should only be used for sealing/inflating passenger car tires; do not use for inflating any other type of tires •Some damaged tires cannot be sealed completely; do not use the kit if a tire is damaged beyond repair
QUICK TIPSREMINDERS:
•
The Tire Mobility Kit requires the use of the 12V/15A /180W Power Outlet, which is located on the right side of the outlet /aux port area
•
After tire is properly sealed, drive cautiously at no more than a total distance speed of 50 mph for no longer than a maximum distance of up to 120 miles
