The front passenger safety belt
reminder light and chime may turn
on if an object is put on the seat
such as a briefcase, handbag,
grocery bag, or other electronic
device. To turn off the reminder light
and/or chime, remove the object
from the seat or buckle the
safety belt.
Airbag Readiness Light
This light shows if there is an
electrical problem with the airbag
system. The system check includes
the airbag sensor(s), passenger
sensing system, the pretensioners
(if equipped), the airbag modules,
the wiring, and the crash sensing
and diagnostic module.
The airbag readiness light comes on
for several seconds when the
vehicle is started. If the light does
not come on then, have it fixed
immediately.
{Warning
If the airbag readiness light stays
on after the vehicle is started or
comes on while driving, it means
the airbag system might not be
working properly. The airbags in
the vehicle might not inflate in a
crash, or they could even inflate
without a crash. To help avoid
injury, have the vehicle serviced
right away.
If there is a problem with the airbag
system, a Driver Information Center
(DIC) message may also come on.
Passenger Airbag Status
Indicator
The vehicle has a passenger
sensing system. See Passenger
Sensing System 074 for important safety information. The overhead
console has a passenger airbag
status indicator.
United States
Canada and Mexico
When the vehicle is started, the
passenger airbag status indicator
will light ON and OFF, or the symbol
for on and off, for several seconds
as a system check. Then, after
several seconds, the status
indicator will light either ON or OFF,
or the on or off symbol to let you
know the status of the front
outboard passenger frontal airbag
and knee airbag.

6. From the Teen Driver Menu,select Key Registration.
.If the transmitter key is in
the transmitter pocket, it will
identify whether the
transmitter key is registered
or unregistered.
. If the transmitter key is not
registered, the option to
register displays. Select
Register and a confirmation
message displays.
. If the transmitter key is
already registered, the
option to unregister
displays. If Unregister is
selected, the transmitter
key is no longer registered
and a confirmation
message displays.
If a Teen Driver transmitter key and
a non-Teen Driver transmitter key
are both present at start up, the
vehicle will recognize the non-Teen
Driver transmitter key to start the
vehicle. The Teen Driver settings
will not be active. Manage Settings
Use the PIN to change the following
settings:
Audio Volume Limit :
Allows a
maximum radio volume to be set.
Turn the audio volume limit On or
Off, and if equipped, choose the
maximum level for the audio
volume.
Teen Driver Speed Warning :
Allows for setting a visual and
audible warning when a certain
speed is exceeded. The speed
warning is selectable from 64 km/h
(40 mph) to 121 km/h (75 mph). The
speed warning does not limit the
speed of the vehicle.
Teen Driver Speed Limiter (If
Equipped) : Allows the maximum
speed of the vehicle to be limited to
137 km/h (85 mph). When the speed
limiter is turned On and the vehicle
is started with a Teen Driver key, the
DIC displays a message that the top
speed is limited to 137 km/h
(85 mph). When Teen Driver is Active:
.
The radio will mute when the
driver safety belt is not fastened,
and in some vehicles, when the
right front passenger safety belt
is not fastened. The audio from
any device paired to the vehicle
will also be muted.
. Certain electronic devices
placed on the front passenger
seat could cause the passenger
sensing system to falsely sense
an unbuckled front passenger
and mute the radio. See
Passenger Sensing System
074.
. Some safety systems, such as
Forward Automatic Braking,
if equipped and supported,
cannot be turned off.
. The gap setting for the Forward
Collision Alert, if equipped,
cannot be changed.

Driving and Operating 209
Caution
Spinning the tires excessively
may damage the electric drive
unit. The repair will not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.
If you are stuck, do not spin the
tires. When stopping on a steep
hill, use the brakes to hold the
vehicle in place.
L : This position reduces vehicle
speed without using the brakes. Use
L (Low) on very steep hills, deep
snow, in mud, or in stop-and-go
traffic.
One-Pedal Driving
With One-Pedal Driving, the
accelerator pedal can be used to
control the deceleration of the
vehicle down to a complete stop. Completely lifting off the accelerator
pedal will result in aggressive
deceleration. Slowly lifting off the
accelerator pedal will allow the
deceleration of the vehicle to be
adjusted as desired.
To use One-Pedal Driving, place
vehicle in L (Low). Press the
accelerator pedal to the desired
speed. The deceleration provided by
One-Pedal Driving provides full
regenerative braking and helps
increase energy efficiency.
While driving on grades, One-Pedal
Driving may not be able to bring the
vehicle to a complete stop or hold
the vehicle at a stop.
If the vehicle cannot maintain the
grade while using One-Pedal
Driving, the Electric Parking
Brake (EPB) may apply to hold the
vehicle stationary. To drive again,
press the accelerator pedal, and the
EPB will automatically disengage.One-Pedal Driving may become
disabled and the vehicle may
continue to creep forward, or if
stopped, may apply the EPB or shift
to park. This can be caused by the
following:
.
The drivers door is open.
. The drivers safety belt is
unbuckled.
. The vehicle has remained
stationary for five minutes.
. There is a problem with the
propulsion system.
Additional deceleration can be
achieved by using the Regen on
Demand paddle. See Regenerative
Braking 0212.

338 Customer Information
Vehicle Data
Recording and
Privacy
The vehicle has a number of
computers that record information
about the vehicle’s performance and
how it is driven. For example, the
vehicle uses computer modules to
monitor and control electric drive
unit performance, to monitor the
conditions for airbag deployment
and to deploy them in a crash, and,
if equipped, to provide antilock
braking to help the driver control the
vehicle. These modules may store
data to help the dealer technician
service the vehicle. Some modules
may also store data about how the
vehicle is operated, such as rate of
energy consumption or average
speed. These modules may retain
personal preferences, such as radio
presets, seat positions, and
temperature settings.
Event Data Recorders
This vehicle is equipped with an
event data recorder (EDR). The
main purpose of an EDR is to
record, in certain crash or near
crash-like situations, such as an air
bag deployment or hitting a road
obstacle, data that will assist in
understanding how a vehicle’s
systems performed. The EDR is
designed to record data related to
vehicle dynamics and safety
systems for a short period of time,
typically 30 seconds or less. The
EDR in this vehicle is designed to
record such data as:
.How various systems in your
vehicle were operating;
. Whether or not the driver and
passenger safety belts were
buckled/fastened;
. How far (if at all) the driver was
depressing the accelerator and/
or brake pedal; and,
. How fast the vehicle was
traveling. These data can help provide a
better understanding of the
circumstances in which crashes and
injuries occur.
Note
EDR data are recorded by your
vehicle only if a non-trivial crash
situation occurs; no data are
recorded by the EDR under normal
driving conditions and no personal
data (e.g., name, gender, age, and
crash location) are recorded.
However, other parties, such as law
enforcement, could combine the
EDR data with the type of
personally identifying data routinely
acquired during a crash
investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR,
special equipment is required, and
access to the vehicle or the EDR is
needed. In addition to the vehicle
manufacturer, other parties, such as
law enforcement, that have the
special equipment, can read the
information if they have access to
the vehicle or the EDR.
