view is the total time duration for the 5
intervals. You can select total duration in the
options menu. Intervals shown in grey color
are from the previous drive. The blue
horizontal line represents the average fuel
economy value shown to the right.
Note:
Hold OK to reset fuel history and
average fuel economy.
Coach
This view provides a comparison of your
recent acceleration, braking and cruising
behavior, then recommends the most
efficient use of energy under present
conditions. The horizontal bars fill from left
to right with best behavior and appear blue
when at least half full. When the bars are less
than half full, the color is amber, suggesting
that you need a change in your driving
behavior to achieve better energy efficiency.
Note: Fuel Economy will be impacted by your
use of brakes, accelerator and accessories,
as well as environmental conditions such as
hills and weather. Note:
Fuel economy is not always a measure
of appropriate driving behavior. For example,
when driving uphill and maintaining an
appropriate speed, your instant fuel
economy may not be good (losing leaves)
but the Coach may show a blue bar for
Acceleration and Cruising.
Common Displays
Both Average fuel economy and an
instantaneous fuel economy gauge are
included in Engage, Empower and MyView
(if selected) on the left information display.
They are also included in Fuel History on the
right information display.
Average Fuel Economy
Average Fuel Economy is continuously
averaged since the last reset. You can reset
your average fuel economy by pressing and
holding the OK button on the corresponding
steering wheel controls.
Note: Average fuel economy cannot be reset
in MyView. Instantaneous Fuel Economy
If your instantaneous fuel economy is greater
than the maximum value displayed, a + sign
will be shown next to the maximum scale
number. When your vehicle is operating on
battery power only, EV will display and the
gauge fill will show in blue.
INFORMATION MESSAGES
Note:
Depending on the vehicle options
equipped with your vehicle, not all of the

MEMORY FUNCTION (If Equipped)
WARNINGS
Before activating the seat memory,
make sure that the area immediately
surrounding the seat is clear of obstructions
and that all occupants are clear of moving
parts. Do not use the memory function when
your vehicle is moving.
This feature automatically recalls the position
of the following features:
•
Driver seat.
• Power mirrors.
• Power steering column.
The memory control is on the driver door. Saving a PreSet Position

desired position.
2. Press and hold the SET button until you hear a single tone.
3. Press the desired preset button until you
hear a single tone.
You can save up to two preset memory
positions. You can save a memory preset at
any time.
Recalling a PreSet Position
Press and release the preset button
associated with your desired driving position.
The memory features move to the position
stored for that preset. Note:
A preset memory position can only be
recalled when the ignition is off, or when the
transmission is in park (P) or neutral (N) if the
ignition is on and the vehicle is not moving.
You can also recall a preset memory position
by:
• Pressing the unlock button on your
intelligent access key fob if it is linked to
a preset position.

Switching Off Your Vehicle When It Is
Moving WARNING
Switching off the engine when the
vehicle is still moving will result in a
loss of brake and steering assistance. The
steering will not lock, but higher effort will
be required. When the ignition is switched
off, some electrical circuits, including air
bags, warning lamps and indicators may also
be off. If the ignition was turned off
accidentally, you can shift into neutral (N) and
re-start the engine. 1. Put the transmission in position N and
use the brakes to bring your vehicle to a
safe stop.
2. When your vehicle has stopped, put the transmission in position
P.
3. Press and hold the button for one second, or press it three times within two
seconds.
4. Apply the parking brake.
Guarding Against Exhaust Fumes WARNING
If you smell exhaust fumes inside your
vehicle, have your vehicle checked by
your authorized dealer immediately. Do not
drive your vehicle if you smell exhaust fumes.
Carbon monoxide is present in exhaust
fumes. Take precautions to avoid its
dangerous effects. Important Ventilating Information
If you stop your vehicle and then leave the
engine idling for long periods of time, we
recommend that you do one of the following:•
Open the windows at least
1 in (3 cm).
• Set your climate control to outside air.
ENGINE BLOCK HEATER
(If Equipped) WARNINGS
Failure to follow engine block heater
instructions could result in property
damage or serious personal injury. Do not use your heater with
ungrounded electrical systems or
two-pronged adapters. There is a risk of
electrical shock. Do not fully close the hood, or allow it
to drop under its own weight when
using the engine block heater. This could
damage the power cable and may cause an
electrical short resulting in fire, injury and
property damage. Note:
The heater is most effective when
outdoor temperatures are below 0°F (-18°C).
