Window Lock
Press the control to lock or unlock the rear
window controls. It illuminates when you lock
the rear window controls.
Bounce-Back (If Equipped)
The window will stop automatically while closing. It will reverse some
distance if there is an obstacle in the way.
Overriding the Bounce-Back Feature
WARNING:When you override the bounce-back feature the
window will not reverse if it detects an obstacle. Take care when
closing the windows to avoid personal injury or damage to your vehicle.
Proceed as follows to override this protection function when there is a
resistance, for example in the winter:
1. Close the window twice until it reaches the resistance and let it
reverse.
2. Close the window a third time to the resistance. The bounce-back
function is disabled and you can close the window manually. The window
will override the resistance and you can close it fully.
Contact your authorized dealer as soon as possible if the window does
not close after the third attempt.
Resetting the Bounce-Back Feature
WARNING:The bounce-back function remains deactivated until
you have reset the memory.
You must reset the bounce-back memory separately for each window
after the battery has been disconnected.
1. Lift and hold the switch until the window is fully closed.
2. Release the switch.

Common Displays
Note:Some features can be switched on and off through the message
center.
Battery Gauge:The high voltage battery gauge appears on the right
side of the message center screen. This provides State of Charge, Range
Estimate and Regen Display.
•State of Charge - The state of charge for the high voltage battery is
shown as a colored fill. The fill color is normally blue. When a low
battery condition is reached the fill turns amber. When the battery is
depleted the fill turns red. See the Information Messages section for
details on associated Low Battery and Depleted Battery warnings.
•Distance to Empty - The Range Estimate in the Battery Gauge is
personalized to the driver’s key. This is the estimated distance the
vehicle will travel before needing a recharge. The Range Estimate is
based on your typical energy usage while driving. This includes your
Drive Habits as well as your use of accessories such as Climate
Control. Your Range Estimate may change immediately when you
change your Climate Control settings.

•Regen Display-Acirculararrowsymbol appears in the center
of the Battery Gauge when energy is being recaptured through the
regenerative braking system.
Brake Coach Display:The Brake Coach appears after the vehicle has
come to a stop. It coaches you to brake in a manner which maximizes
the amount of energy returned through the regenerative braking system.
The percent displayed is an indication of the regenerative braking
efficiency with 100% representing the maximum amount of energy
recovery. If desired, this feature can be disabled in the Display section
of the Settings menu.
Trip Summary and Lifetime Summary:These will be displayed upon
shutting off the vehicle. Trip Summary will appear first, then Lifetime
Summary will be displayed. You can toggle between these displays using
the up and down arrow keys on the left hand steering wheel controls.
Trip Summary data is from the last power cycle, while Lifetime Summary
data is cumulative from the last Lifetime Summary reset done through
the Settings menu in the message center.
Trip Summary:
•Distance - The total distance travelled, and regen distance are
displayed. Regen distance is the estimated range gained from energy
recaptured through regenerative braking.
•Energy Used - The total kilowatt hours and average watt hours per
unit of distance are displayed. The average watt hours per mi (km)
will be shown in blue if less than (better than) the lifetime average
watt hours per mi (km).
•Brake Score - The percentage of braking energy recaptured and
returned to the high voltage battery through regenerative braking.
The brake score will be shown in blue if greater than (better than)
the lifetime brake score.
Lifetime Summary:
•Distance - The total regen distance, which is the estimated range
gained from energy recaptured through regenerative braking.
•Energy Used - The average watt hours per mi (km).
•Brake Score - The average percentage of braking energy recaptured
and returned to the high voltage battery through regenerative braking.

•Budget Text View: contains basic information to help you reach your
next charging destination or to achieve your vehicle range estimate.
Charge pt: is the distance remaining to the next charge point you
identified using the Navigation system.
Surplus: is the available range beyond your identified charge point
(current Range Estimate shown on Battery Gauge minus Charge pt
distance).
If you don’t enter a charge point, you will see:
Budget: is set to the Range Estimate at the point of departure.
This will count down with the odometer.
Status: is your performance against your Budget (current Range
Estimate shown on Battery Gauge minus Budget distance). A positive
Status indicates you are using less energy than typical and have
extended your Range Estimate by the distance shown.
