When waiting to charge (not activelycharging), the light ring will indicate thepresent state of charge of the high voltagebattery 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 lightsare on and the bottom left quadrant isoff, the charge is between 50–75percent.
•When three quadrant lights are on andthe top left quadrant is off, the chargeis between 75–100 percent.
•When all lights on the entire ring areon, the charge is 100 percent.
Note:When your vehicle is waiting tocharge, the light ring will turn off one minuteafter displaying the present state of charge.When your vehicle automatically beginscharging, the light ring will turn on anddisplay how far along the charge is per thesection above.
Note:If the system detects a vehiclecharging system fault at any point in acharge cycle, the entire light ring will flashcontinuously for one minute and then turnoff. If this happens, unplug the chargingcoupler and then plug it back into the chargeport receptacle. If the problem persists,contact an authorized dealer.

Understanding the Shift Positionsof Your Automatic Transmission
Putting your vehicle in gear:
1. Fully press down the brake pedal.
2. Move the selector to the desired gear.
3. Come to a complete stop.
4. Move the selector to park (P).
Park (P)
With the transmission in park (P), yourvehicle locks the transmission andprevents the wheels from turning. Alwayscome to a complete stop before puttingyour vehicle into and out of park (P). Anaudible chime sounds once you select park(P).
When the ignition is turned off, your vehiclewill automatically shift into park (P). If theignition is turned off while the vehicle ismoving, it will first shift into neutral (N)until a slow enough speed is reached. Yourvehicle will then shift into park (P)automatically.
