8 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE

E-Park is activated when the driver pushes the PARK
button. An electric motor activates the parking pawl
and locks the single-speed transmission when the ve-
hicle is placed into PARK. This will prevent any un-
wanted movement of the vehicle.
NOTE:The engagement of the E-Park can be heard
when there is no noise in the interior of the vehicle, this
is a normal condition.
Climate Control (HVAC System)
Your 500e is equipped with an Automatic Temperature
Control (ATC) HVAC system. This HVAC system uti-
lizes a humidity sensor, cabin sensor, and ambient
temperature sensor to choose operation mode and
control cabin comfort. These components allow the
controller to operate the HVAC system in a very effi-
cient manner to maximize driving range.
Your 500e also uses an electric air heater to provide heat
to the cabin.
Electric Air Conditioning Compressor
Your 500e uses an electric air conditioning compressor.
The air conditioning compressor is powered by the high
voltage battery system and is used to cool the vehicle
occupants and the high voltage battery while the ve-
hicle is being driven or when it is being charged.
The high voltage battery may require cooling to keep
the vehicle running. The air conditioning compressor
will activate without any input from the occupant.
NOTE: The AC system helps cool the high voltage
battery. If the air conditioning system should require
service, see your Authorized Dealer as soon as possible.
Electric Power Steering
Your vehicle is equipped with an Electric Power Steer-
ing (EPS) system. The power steering system requires
no maintenance and operates without the use of power
steering fluid.

NOTE:The charge inlet door locks and unlocks with
the vehicle doors.
AC Level 1 Charging (120V, 15 Amp)
Your vehicle is equipped with a 120 Volt AC, SAE J1772
Level 1 Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE), also
referred to as a charging cordset. AC Level 1 charging
requires a conventional NEMA 5-15 120 Volt AC
grounded wall receptacle along with the charging cord-
set provided with the vehicle.
WARNING!
Shock, fire, property damage, or personal injury
may occur if the Portable EVSE Cordset is not used
properly. There are no serviceable parts contained
in the Portable EVSE Cordset. Any attempt to
service it may result in shock, fire, property dam-
age, or personal injury.
To access the charging cordset, remove the Level 1 EVSE
from its storage bin by lifting the rear cargo cover.

A WORD ABOUT YOUR KEYS
The key fob contains a mechanical integrated key. To
use the mechanical key, simply push the mechanical key
release button.
The vehicle is supplied with a code card containing key

rized dealer that sold you your new vehicle has the key
code numbers for your vehicle locks. These numbers
can be used to order duplicate keys.

28 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE

WARNING!
•Before exiting a vehicle, always apply the parking
brake, place the transmission into PARK, and
remove the key fob from the ignition. When
leaving the vehicle, always lock your vehicle.
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle.
• Allowing children to be in a vehicle unattended is
dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or
others could be seriously or fatally injured. Chil-
dren should be warned not to touch the parking
brake, brake pedal or the transmission gear selec-
tor buttons.
• Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, or
in a location accessible to children. A child could
operate power windows, other controls, or move
the vehicle.
• Do not leave children or animals inside parked
vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat build-up
may cause serious injury or death.
CAUTION!
An unlocked vehicle is an invitation. Always re-
move the key from the ignition and lock all the
doors when leaving the vehicle unattended.
Locking Doors With A Key
You can insert the key with either side up. To lock the
door, turn the key to the left. To unlock the door, turn
the key to the right.
Key-In-Ignition Reminder
Opening the driver’s door when the key is in the
ignition and the ignition switch position is OFF/LOCK
sounds a signal to remove the key.
SENTRY KEY
The Sentry Key Immobilizer System prevents unauthor-
ized vehicle operation by disabling the engine. The
system does not need to be armed or activated. Opera-
tion is automatic, regardless of whether the vehicle is
locked or unlocked.

THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE 29

The system uses ignition keys which have an embedded
electronic chip (transponder) to prevent unauthorized
vehicle operation. Therefore, only keys that are pro-
grammed to the vehicle can be used to start and operate
the vehicle.
NOTE:A key which has not been programmed is also
considered an invalid key, even if it is cut to fit the
ignition switch lock cylinder for that vehicle.
If the vehicle security light is on after the key is turned
to the MAR (ACC/ON/RUN) position, it indicates that
there is a problem with the electronics.
CAUTION!
• Always remove the Sentry Key from the vehicle
and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle
unattended.
• The Sentry Key Immobilizer system is not com-
patible with some aftermarket remote starting
systems. Use of these systems may result in
vehicle starting problems and loss of security
protection.
All of the keys provided with your new vehicle have
been programmed to the vehicle electronics.
Replacement Keys
NOTE: Only keys that have been programmed to the
vehicle electronics can be used to start the vehicle. Once
a Sentry Key has been programmed to a vehicle, it
cannot be programmed to any other vehicle. When
having the Sentry Key Immobilizer System serviced,
bring all vehicle keys with you to an authorized dealer.
The VIN is required for authorized dealer replacement
of keys. Duplication of keys may be performed at an
authorized dealer.
