24Child Safety

The light ring located around the charge
port indicates the charge status of your
vehicle's high-voltage battery. The charge
port light ring is divided into four quadrants
which display state of charge in 25 percent
increments.
There is a cord acknowledgment feature
that will be activated when a charge cycle
is initiated. The four light quadrants will
each individually flash clockwise starting
with the top right light and ending with the
top left, two full times confirming a
charging coupler has been detected.
You can use your keyfob to view the
vehicles charge status at any time by
pressing the unlock button. The light ring
will light up the corresponding quadrant(s)
so that the current state of charge can be
determined. If the charge is below 25
percent the light ring will not illuminate.
Don’t forget to press the lock button on
your keyfob to re-lock the vehicle.
The light ring will also display the current
state of charge when opening the doors.

164High Voltage Battery

Because your vehicle’s engine is
electronically-controlled by a computer,
some engine control settings are
maintained by power from the low-voltage
battery. Some engine computer settings,
like the idle trim and fuel trim strategy,
optimize the driveability and performance
of the engine. The clock and radio station
presets are also maintained in memory by
power from the low-voltage battery. These
settings are erased when a technician
disconnects and connects the low-voltage
battery.
Complete the following procedure in order
to restore the settings:
1. With the vehicle at a complete stop,
set the parking brake.
2. Shift the transmission into P (Park)
3. Turn off all accessories.
4. Step on the brake pedal and start the
vehicle.
5. Run the engine until it reaches normal
operating temperature. While the
engine is warming up, complete the
following: Reset the clock. See Audio
System (page 299). Reset the power
windows bounce-back feature. See
Windows and Mirrors (page 74).
Reset the radio station presets. See
Audio System (page 299).
6. Allow the engine to idle for at least one
minute. If the engine turns off, step on
the accelerator to start the engine.
7. While the engine is running, step on the
brake pedal and shift the transmission
to N.
8. Allow the engine to run for at least one
minute by pressing on the accelerator
pedal.
9. Drive the vehicle at least 10 miles (16
kilometers) to completely relearn the
idle and fuel trim strategy. Note: If you do not allow the engine to
relearn the idle and fuel trim strategy, the
idle quality of your vehicle may be adversely
affected until the engine computer
eventually relearns the idle trim and fuel
trim strategy.
Note: Always dispose of automotive
batteries in a responsible manner. Follow
your local authorized standards for disposal.
Call your local authorized recycling center
to find out more about recycling automotive
batteries.
Note: It is recommended that the negative
battery cable terminal be disconnected from
the battery if you plan to store your vehicle
for an extended period of time.

portion of the beam pattern. If the top
edge of the high intensity light zone is
not at the horizontal reference line, the
headlamp will need to be adjusted.
E145594
5. Locate the vertical adjuster on each
headlamp. Using a Phillips #2
screwdriver, turn the adjuster either
clockwise or counterclockwise in order
to adjust the vertical aim of the
headlamp. The horizontal edge of the
brighter light should touch the
horizontal reference line.
6. Close the hood and turn off the lamps.
