EXTENDING YOUR DRIVING RANGE PER CHARGE
•A little knowledge will go a long way to extend your driving range on the 500e.First
and foremost understand that the drive system and cabin temperature management
features use the most energy from the high voltage battery.Reducing energy draw
from these features are the easiest and most effective way to extend driving range.
•Just like a conventional vehicle, 500e likes to keep things smooth and steady for most
efficient operation.When driving, avoid aggressive driving styles and high speeds for
extended times.When practical, choose surface streets over the highway, work to
maintain a steady speed to extend range.
•The 500e uses high voltage components to heat and cool the cabin, so a little aware-
ness can go a long way to extend range.When using automatic climate control, con-
sider setting temperatures a few degrees higher or lower during hot and cold days.If
your 500e has been soaking in hot or cold temperatures for an extended period, it is
recommended that the car be preconditioned via the Uconnect Access smartphone
app while still plugged into a charging source.This will allow 500e to use external
power to establish a comfortable cabin temperature before the drive, and allow the
battery to maintain the temperature using significantly less energy during the drive.
Additional Tips:
•Keep tires properly inflated
•Avoid carrying nonessential cargo
•Be mindful of adding external accessories that may increase aerodynamic drag
•Perform all scheduled maintenance at recommended intervals
Driving Behavior Gauge
To help the driver extend the driving range of the high voltage battery your vehicle is
equipped with a Driving Behavior Gauge.The Driving Behavior Gauge is located on the
right side of the instrument cluster and displays three driving ranges:
Power
The Driving Behavior Gauge will move into
the Power range when under acceleration.
ECO
The Driving Behavior Gauge will move into
the ECO range when you are maximizing
the driving range of the high voltage bat-
tery.
Charge
The Driving Behavior Gauge will move into
the Charge range when battery regenera-
tion is active (either coasting or braking).

FUSES
WARNING!
•When replacing a blown fuse, always use an appropriate replacement fuse with
the same amp rating as the original fuse.Never replace a fuse with another fuse
of higher amp rating.Never replace a blown fuse with metal wires or any other
material.Failure to use proper fuses may result in serious personal injury, fire
and/or property damage.
•Before replacing a fuse, make sure that the ignition is off and that all the other
services are switched off and/or disengaged.
•If the replaced fuse blows again, contact an authorized dealer.
•If a general protection fuse for safety systems (air bag system, braking system),
power unit systems (engine system, gearbox system) or steering system blows,
contact an authorized dealer.
