Regenerative Braking
Regenerative braking takes some of
the energy from the moving vehicle
and turns it back into electrical
energy. This energy is then stored in
the high voltage battery system,
contributing to increased energy
efficiency.
Regen on Demand®
This feature will slow the vehicle by
recapturing energy using the
steering wheel paddles.
See Regenerative Braking 0197.

With Rainsense, if the electric drive
unit is in N (Neutral) and the vehicle
speed is very slow, the wipers will
automatically stop at the base of the
windshield.
The wiper operations return to
normal when the electric drive unit
is no longer in N (Neutral) or the
vehicle speed has increased.
nL(Windshield Washer) : Pull the
windshield wiper lever toward you to
spray windshield washer fluid and
activate the wipers. The wipers will
continue until the lever is released
or the maximum wash time is
reached. When the windshield wiper
lever is released, additional wipes
may occur depending on how long
the windshield washer had been
activated. See Washer Fluid0253
for information on filling the
windshield washer fluid reservoir.
{Warning
In freezing weather, do not use
the washer until the windshield is
warmed. Otherwise the washer
fluid can form ice on the
windshield, blocking your vision.
Compass
The compass displays in the center
stack. The compass receives its
heading and other information from
the Global Positioning
System (GPS) antenna,
StabiliTrak
®, and vehicle speed
information.
The compass system is designed to
operate for a certain number of
miles or degrees of turn before
needing a signal from the GPS
satellites. When the compass
display shows CAL, drive the
vehicle for a short distance in an
open area where it can receive a
GPS signal. The compass system
will automatically determine when a
GPS signal is restored and provide a heading again. See

be sure to follow the proper
installation instructions included with
the equipment. See
Add-On
Electrical Equipment 0234.

The Charge Start and Charge
Complete time estimates are also
displayed on the screen. These
estimates are most accurate when
the vehicle is plugged in and in
moderate temperature conditions.
Also, to get an accurate time
estimate, the vehicle uses an
internal clock for programmable
charging, not the clock in the center
stack.
Charge Mode Status
Immediately : The vehicle starts
charging as soon as it is connected
to an electrical outlet. See Plug-In
Charging 0222.
Delayed (Departure Time) : The
vehicle estimates the charging start
time considering the programmed
departure time for the current day of
the week. Charging begins at the
start time and is complete by the
departure time only if sufficient time
is allowed after the charge cord is
plugged in.
Delayed (Electric Rate and
Departure Time) : The vehicle
estimates the charging start time
based on the utility rate schedule,
utility rate preference, and the
programmed departure time for the
current day of the week. The vehicle
will charge during the least
expensive rate periods to achieve a
full battery charge by the departure
time. Electrical rate information from
the utility company for the charging
location is required for this mode.
Also, if the selected electric rate
settings result in a very long charge
completion time, the vehicle will
start charging immediately upon
plug-in. For example, if the electric
rate table is set up with all “Peak”
rates and the rate preference is to
charge during “Off-Peak”rates only,
then the vehicle will start charging
immediately upon plug-in.
Charge Limit Selection
The Charge Limit Preference setting
allows the customer to select their
vehicle’s charge level so it matches
the capability of their charging
location. If the vehicle consistently
