Climate Control

•Keep the tires properly inflated andonly use the recommended size.
•Aggressive driving increases theamount of energy required to moveyour vehicle. In general, you canachieve better fuel economy with mildto moderate acceleration anddeceleration. Moderate braking isparticularly important since it allowsyou to maximize the energy capturedby the regenerative braking system.
Additional Tips:
•Do not carry extra loads.
•Be mindful of adding externalaccessories that may increaseaerodynamic drag.
•Observe posted speed limits.
•Perform all scheduled maintenance.
•There is no need to wait for your engineto warm up. The vehicle is ready todrive immediately after starting.
EV+ Mode
Your vehicle will recognize your frequentdestinations and allow for more EV drivingas you approach them. For example, whennearing your home it should be easier tostay in electric mode. The EV indicator willdisplay EV+ when this mode is active. Youshould see this approximately 1/8 mile(200 meters) from a frequent destination.See Information Displays (page 93).
Note:Frequent destinations are learned byyour vehicle after two to four weeks of use.To add a destination immediately, performthe following process: cycle the ignition onfor 2 seconds, but do not start your vehicle,then off for 2 seconds. Repeat the process10 times. This location is now programmedfor EV+. You can clear these destinationswith a Driving History reset through theSettings menu.
Note:You can switch the EV+ feature onor off through the Driver Assist section ofthe Settings menu.
PLUG-IN HYBRID VEHICLE
OPERATION
Plug-in Power Mode and HybridMode
You must plug in your Energi vehicleregularly for optimal use of the highvoltage battery's extended rangecapability. Charging your vehicle addselectrical energy. This energy is used topropel the vehicle in plug-in power mode.
Estimated electric range is shown in bluenext to gasoline range at the bottom of theright information display. You can alsoconfigure MyView to include detailedvehicle range information. See Gauges(page 85).
The system maximizes the use ofelectric-only operation in plug-in powermode. System conditions may requireengine operation; however, the systemuses plug-in power whenever possible.
When your plug-in power is depleted, thepowertrain system will automaticallyswitch to hybrid mode. Your battery gaugewill transition to a simple battery graphicupon entering hybrid mode. Hybrid modeuses both the gasoline engine and electricmotor to power your vehicle and maximizefuel economy.
