Mirror Adjustment
Exterior
Mirrors can be folded inward toward
the vehicle to prevent damage when
going through an automatic car
wash. Push the mirror outward to
return it to the original position.
See Folding Mirrors on page 2-18.
Controls for the outside power
mirrors are on the driver door.
To adjust a mirror:
1. Move the selector switch to L
(Left) or R (Right) to choose the
driver or passenger mirror.
2. Press the arrows on the control pad to move each mirror in the
desired direction.
3. Return the selector switch to the center position.
See Power Mirrors on page 2-17. The rear window defogger also
heats the outside mirrors. See
Heated Mirrors on page 2-18.
Interior
Adjust the rearview mirror for a clear
view of the area behind the vehicle.
The mirror will automatically reduce
the glare of headlamps from behind.
The dimming feature comes on
when the vehicle is started. See

In Brief 1-27
Use the auto heated seat feature
instead of climate settings. Heating
the seat uses less energy than
heating the vehicle interior.
Use remote start to heat or cool the
interior when the vehicle is plugged
in to maximize the electric range by
utilizing electricity from the electrical
outlet. Engine Assisted Heating
while plugged in can be
personalized. SeeRemote Start on
page 2-8.
In hot weather, avoid parking in
direct sunlight or use sunshades
inside the vehicle.
Turn off the front and rear window
defog/defrost when they are no
longer needed.
Avoid driving with the windows open
at highway speeds.
See Vehicle Personalization on
page 5-51.Vehicle Charging/Maintenance
Charging
Keep the vehicle plugged in, even
when fully charged, to keep the
battery temperature ready for the
next drive. This is important when
outside temperatures are extremely
hot or cold.
Maintenance
Always keep the tires properly
inflated and the vehicle properly
aligned.
The weight of excess cargo in the
vehicle affects efficiency and range.
Avoid carrying more than is needed.
If fuel is not regularly used, consider
keeping the fuel tank only one-third
full. Excess fuel weight impacts
efficiency and range.
For fuel recommendations, see Fuel
on page 9-66. Avoid unnecessary use of electrical
accessories. Power used for
functions other than propelling the
vehicle will reduce electric vehicle
range.
Using a rooftop carrier will reduce
efficiency due to additional weight
and drag.

The high beams may not turn off
automatically if the system cannot
detect another vehicle's lamps
because of any of the following:
.The other vehicle's lamps are
missing, damaged, obstructed
from view, or otherwise
undetected.
.The other vehicle's lamps are
covered with dirt, snow, and/or
road spray.
.The other vehicle's lamps cannot
be detected due to dense
exhaust, smoke, fog, snow, road
spray, mist, or other airborne
obstructions.
.The vehicle's windshield is dirty,
cracked, or obstructed by
something that blocks the view
of the light sensor.
.The vehicle is loaded such that
the front end points upward,
causing the light sensor to aim
high and not detect headlamps
and taillamps.
.The vehicle is being driven on
winding or hilly roads.
The automatic high-beam
headlamps may need to be disabled
if any of the above conditions exist.
This feature can be turned on or off
in vehicle personalization. See

Climate Controls 8-3
When in MIN mode, the AUTO
indicator light will be off. When
AUTO is selected in MIN mode, the
mode will change to either ECO
or MAX.
When in MIN mode, the air
conditioning system may turn on
automatically if the high voltage
battery is being cooled. The climate
control system could blow cold air.
This is normal. To prevent cold air
from blowing into the interior, turn off
the fan control and select the vent
mode and manual recirculation
mode, and close the air vents.
When in MIN mode, if Auto Defog is
enabled, the air conditioning and
electric heat may turn on when high
humidity conditions exist. See
“Climate and Air Quality”under
Vehicle Personalization on
page 5-51 for more information on
the Auto Defog selection. The air
conditioning may also run if
0is
selected. ECO (Economy Mode):
The air
conditioning and electric heat are
controlled to balance comfort with
fuel economy. As long as
0is not
selected, the vehicle electric range
or fuel economy will decrease less
than in MAX mode, but will result in
moderate comfort.
MAX (Comfort Mode): The air
conditioning and electric heat are
controlled to reach the best comfort
level based on the temperature
setting selected. In this mode,
vehicle electric range or fuel
economy will decrease depending
on the amount of energy required to
reach the best comfort levels.
Climate Power Gauge
When the climate mode is changed,
the Climate Power gauge displays
the impact that user setting changes
have on energy consumption. The
higher the reading, the more energy
is being used. Automatic Operation
The system automatically controls
the fan speed, air delivery, air
conditioning, and recirculation in
order to heat or cool the vehicle to
the desired temperature.
When the indicator light is on or
AUTO is displayed on the touch
screen, the system is in full
automatic operation. If the air
delivery mode or fan setting is
manually adjusted, the auto
indicator turns off and the display
will show the selected settings. Auto
operation can be turned off
individually for climate settings.
For automatic operation:
1. Press AUTO.
2. Set the temperature. Allow the
system time to stabilize. Then
adjust the temperature as
needed for best comfort.
To improve fuel efficiency and to
cool the vehicle faster, recirculation
may be automatically selected in
warm weather. The recirculation

-(Defog):Clears the windows of
fog or moisture. Air is directed to the
windshield, side windows, and floor
outlets.
0(Defrost): Press the0button
to turn on or off. This clears the
windshield of fog or frost more
quickly. Air is directed to the
windshield and side windows.
Automatic Air Recirculation:
When the AUTO indicator light is
on, the air is automatically
recirculated as needed to help
quickly cool the inside of the
vehicle.
@(Recirculation): Press to
alternate between recirculating air
inside the vehicle or pulling in
outside air. The indicator light on the
button is lit when recirculation mode
is active. This helps to quickly cool
the air inside the vehicle or prevent
outside air and odors from entering. Pressing this button cancels
automatic recirculation. Press AUTO
to return to automatic operation;
recirculation runs automatically as
needed.
Manual recirculation mode is not
available when in Defrost mode.
Auto Defog:
The climate control
system may have a sensor to
automatically detect high humidity
inside the vehicle. When high
humidity is detected, the climate
control system may adjust to
outside air supply and turn on the
air conditioner. If the climate control
system does not detect possible
window fogging, it returns to normal
operation. To turn Auto Defog off or
on, see “Climate and Air Quality”
under Vehicle Personalization on
page 5-51.
Rear Window Defogger
=REAR (Rear Window
Defogger): Press to turn the rear
window defogger on or off. The rear window defogger turns off
automatically after about
five minutes. At higher vehicle
speeds, the rear window defogger
may stay on continuously.
The heated outside mirrors turn on
when the rear window defogger
button is on. They help to clear fog
or frost from the surface of the
mirrors.
{Caution
Do not try to clear frost or other
material from the inside of the
front windshield and rear window
with a razor blade or anything
else that is sharp. This may
damage the rear window
defogger grid and affect the
radio's ability to pick up stations
clearly. The repairs would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.

high, medium, low, or off heated
seat level will be indicated by the
manual heated seat button lights on
the center stack. Use the touch
screen buttons or the manual
heated seat buttons on the center
stack to turn auto heated seats off.
See Heated Front Seats on
page 3-8.
Remote Start Climate Control
Operation: The climate control
system may run when the vehicle is
started remotely. The system uses the driver's previous settings to heat
or cool the inside of the vehicle. See
Remote Start on page 2-8.
The rear window defogger turns on
if it is cold outside.
Sensors
The solar sensor monitors the
solar heat.
The climate control system uses the
sensor information to adjust the
temperature, fan speed,
recirculation, and air delivery mode
for best comfort.
If the sensor is covered, the
automatic climate control system
may not work properly.

Distracted Driving
Distraction comes in many forms
and can take your focus from the
task of driving. Exercise good
judgment and do not let other
activities divert your attention away
from the road. Many local
governments have enacted laws
regarding driver distraction. Become
familiar with the local laws in
your area.
