currently onboard. Separately displays
range available in Hybrid Mode fueled
by gasoline, electric range available in
Plug-in Power Mode, and total range.
Gasoline range and electric range are
also shown on the bottom of the right
information display. Changes in driving
pattern and climate control use will
cause the values to vary.
• Accessory Power — Indicates electrical
power demands from your vehicle ’s
accessory systems. Accessories use
power but do not contribute to
propelling your vehicle. The gauge
separately displays power demand in
kilowatts (kW) for climate and other
accessories. Climate includes the
power being used by high voltage
climate control components such as
the electric A/C compressor and the
electric heater (Energi vehicles only).
Other includes all power being used by
the low voltage accessories (cabin
fans, headlights, heated seats, etc.). •
Coolant Temp – Indicates engine
coolant temperature. At normal
operating temperature, the level
indicator will be white and will be in the
normal range (between H and C). If the
engine coolant temperature exceeds
the normal range, the level indicator
will change to red to indicate that the
engine is overheating. Stop your vehicle
as soon as safely possible, turn your
vehicle off and let the engine cool.
• Tach rpm x 1000 — When the gasoline
engine is running, the tachometer
gauge displays the engine speed in
revolutions per minute (RPM). When
your vehicle is operating on battery
power only with the engine off, EV
displays and the tachometer is greyed
out.
Note: The trip data, and average fuel
economy cannot be reset in MyView.
Miles (or km)/Full Charge (Energi only)

HEATED SEATS (If Equipped)
WARNING
People who are unable to feel pain
to their skin because of advanced
age, chronic illness, diabetes, spinal
cord injury, medication, alcohol use,
exhaustion or other physical conditions,
must exercise care when using the heated
seat. The heated seat may cause burns
even at low temperatures, especially if
used for long periods of time. Do not place
anything on the seat that insulates against
heat, such as a blanket or cushion. This
may cause the heated seat to overheat.
Do not puncture the seat with pins, needles
or other pointed objects. This may damage
the heating element which may cause the
heated seat to overheat. An overheated
seat may cause serious personal injury. Do not do the following:
•
Place heavy objects on the seat.
• Operate the heated seat if water or any
other liquid is spilled on the seat. Allow
the seat to dry thoroughly.
• Operate the heated seats unless the

Gate Operator / Canadian
Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter signals to
“time-out” (or quit)
after several seconds of transmission –
which may not be long enough for
HomeLink to pick up the signal during
programming. Similar to this Canadian law,
some U.S. gate operators are designed to
“time-out” in the same manner.
Note: If programming a garage door opener
or gate operator, it is advised to unplug the
device during the “cycling” process to
prevent possible overheating.
1. Press and hold the HomeLink button while you press and release, every two
seconds, your hand-held transmitter
until the HomeLink indicator light
changes from a slow to a rapidly
blinking light.
2. Release both the HomeLink and hand-held transmitter buttons.
3. Continue programing HomeLink. See In-Vehicle Programming
.
Erasing the Function Button Codes
Note: You cannot erase individual buttons. 1. Press and hold the outer two function
buttons simultaneously for
approximately 20 seconds until the
indicator lights above the buttons flash
rapidly.
2. When the indicator lights flash, release
the buttons. The codes for all buttons
are erased.
Reprogramming a Single Button
To program a device to a previously trained
button, follow these steps:
1. Press and hold the desired button. Do NOT release the button.
2. The indicator light will begin to flash after 20 seconds. Without releasing the
button, follow Step 1 in the
Programming section.

The light ring located around the charge
port indicates the charge status of the high
voltage battery in your vehicle:
•
When the top right-hand side quadrant
is pulsing, the charge is between 0-25
percent.
• When the top right-hand side quadrant
is on and the bottom right-hand
quadrant is pulsing, the charge is
between 25-50 percent.
• When both right-hand side quadrants
are on and the bottom left-hand side
quadrant is pulsing, the charge is
between 50-75 percent.
• When three quadrants are on and the
top left-hand side quadrant is pulsing,
the charge is between 75-100 percent.
• When all the lights on the light ring are
on, the charge is complete.
Note: The light ring will turn off one minute
after reaching a full charge.
Locking the Charging Coupler
Note: To lock the charging coupler, you
need a padlock or a combination lock with
a shackle diameter of 0.2 in (5 mm) or less.
Also, the straight portion of the shackle
must be 1.0 in (25.4 mm) or longer. 1. Insert the lock through the hole in the
charging coupler button.
2. Lock the padlock or combination lock. Waiting to Charge
When you select Value Charge, charging
may not begin upon plugging in. The
vehicle may delay charging to take
advantage of off-peak electricity rates. The
vehicle will optimize the charge schedule
to be complete by the next GO Time.
When waiting to charge (not actively
charging), the light ring will indicate the
present state of charge of the high voltage
battery as follows:
•
When the top right quadrant light is off,
the charge is between 0– 25 percent.
• When the top right quadrant light is on
and the bottom right quadrant is off,
the charge is between 25–50 percent.
• When both right side quadrant lights
are on and the bottom left quadrant is
off, the charge is between 50– 75
percent.
• When three quadrant lights are on and
the top left quadrant is off, the charge
is between 75– 100 percent.
• When all lights on the entire ring are
on, the charge is 100 percent.
Note: When the vehicle is waiting to charge,
the light ring will turn off one minute after
displaying the present state of charge. When
the vehicle automatically begins charging,
the light ring will turn on and display how
far along the charge is per the section above.
Note: If the system detects a vehicle
charging system fault at any point in a
charge cycle, the entire light ring will flash
continuously for one minute and then turn
off. If this happens, unplug the charging
coupler and then plug it back into the charge
port receptacle. If the problem persists,
contact an authorized dealer.
You can modify the light ring lighting
conditions by using the touchscreen
system.

When the system is active, your vehicle will
remain stationary on the slope for two to
three seconds after you release the brake
pedal. This allows you time to move your
foot from the brake to the accelerator
pedal. The brakes release automatically
when the engine has sufficient torque to
prevent your vehicle from rolling down the
grade. This is an advantage when pulling
away on a slope, for example from a car
park ramp, traffic lights or when reversing
uphill into a parking space.
The system will activate automatically on
any slope that will cause significant vehicle
rollback. For vehicles with a manual
transmission, you can switch this feature
off using the information display. See
Information Displays (page 92). The
system will remain on or off depending on
how it was last set.
Note: There is no warning lamp to indicate
the system is either on or off.
Note: If your vehicle is equipped with Auto
Hold, Hill Start Assist will not be available
while Auto Hold is active.
Using Hill Start Assist
1. Bring your vehicle to a complete standstill. Keep the brake pedal
pressed and select an uphill gear (for
example, first (1) when facing uphill or
reverse (R) when facing downhill).
2. If the sensors detect that your vehicle is on a slope, the system will activate
automatically.
3. When you remove your foot from the brake pedal, your vehicle will remain
on the slope without rolling away for
about two or three seconds. This hold
time will automatically be extended if
you are in the process of driving off.
4. Drive off in the normal manner. The brakes will release automatically. Switching the System On and Off
You can switch this feature on or off if your
vehicle is equipped with a manual
transmission and an information display.
See
General Information (page 92). The
system remembers the last setting when
you start your vehicle.
If your vehicle is not equipped with a
manual transmission and an information
display, you cannot turn the system on or
off. When you switch the ignition on, the
system automatically turns on.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The traction control system helps avoid
drive wheel spin and loss of traction.
If your vehicle begins to slide, the system
applies the brakes to individual wheels
and, when needed, reduces engine power
at the same time. If the wheels spin when
accelerating on slippery or loose surfaces,
the system reduces engine power in order
to increase traction.
USING TRACTION CONTROL
WARNING
The stability and traction control
light illuminates steadily if the
system detects a failure. Make sure
you did not manually disable the traction
control system using the information
display controls or the switch. If the
stability control and traction control light
is still illuminating steadily, have the
system serviced by an authorized dealer
immediately. Operating your vehicle with
the traction control disabled could lead to
an increased risk of loss of vehicle control,
vehicle rollover, personal injury and death. The system automatically turns on each
time you switch the ignition on.
If your vehicle is stuck in mud or snow,
switching traction control off may be
beneficial as this allows the wheels to spin.
Note:
When you switch traction control off,
stability control remains fully active.
Switching the System Off
When you switch the system off or on, a
message appears in the information
display showing system status.
You can switch the system off by either
using the information display controls or
the switch. Using the Information Display
Controls
You can switch this feature off or on in the
information display. See General
Information (page 92).
Using a Switch
(If Equipped)
Use the traction control switch on the
instrument panel to switch the system off
or on.
System Indicator Lights and
Messages The stability and traction control
light:
• Temporarily illuminates on engine
start-up.
• Flashes when a driving condition
activates either of the systems.
• Illuminates if a problem occurs in either
of the systems. The stability and traction control
off light temporarily illuminates
on engine start-up and stays on
when you switch the traction control
system off.
