The electrical loads that may be switched off (if equipped),
and vehicle functions which can be effected by load reduction:
•Heated Seat/Vented Seats/Heated Wheel
• Heated/Cooled Cup Holders — If Equipped
• Rear Defroster And Heated Mirrors
• HVAC System
• 115V AC Power Inverter System
• Audio and Telematics System
Loss of the battery charge may indicate one or more of the
following conditions:
• The charging system cannot deliver enough electrical
power to the vehicle system because the electrical loads
are larger than the capability of charging system. The
charging system is still functioning properly.
• Turning on all possible vehicle electrical loads (e.g.
HVAC to max settings, exterior and interior lights,
overloaded power outlets +12V, 115V AC, USB ports)
during certain driving conditions (city driving, towing,
frequent stopping). •
Installing options like additional lights, upfitter electri-
cal accessories, audio systems, alarms and similar de-
vices.
• Unusual driving cycles (short trips separated by long
parking periods).
• The vehicle was parked for an extended period of time
(weeks, months).
• The battery was recently replaced and was not charged
completely.
• The battery was discharged by an electrical load left on
when the vehicle was parked.
• The battery was used for an extended period with the
engine not running to supply radio, lights, chargers,
+12V portable appliances like vacuum cleaner ’s, game
consoles and similar devices.
What to do when an electrical load reduction action
message is present (“Battery Saver On” or “Battery Saver
Mode”)
During a trip:
• Reduce power to unnecessary loads if possible:
– Turn off redundant lights (interior or exterior)4
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 147

– Check what may be plugged in to power outlets +12V,115V AC, USB ports
– Check HVAC settings (blower, temperature)
– Check the audio settings (volume)
After a trip:
• Check if any aftermarket equipment was installed (ad-
ditional lights, upfitter electrical accessories, audio sys-
tems, alarms) and review specifications if any (load and
Ignition Off Draw currents).
• Evaluate the latest driving cycles (distance, driving time
and parking time).
• The vehicle should have service performed if the mes-
sage is still present during consecutive trips and the
evaluation of the vehicle and driving pattern did not
help to identify the cause.

vehicle control systems will change the following:
•The transmission will upshift sooner and downshift
later.
• The overall driving performance will be more conserva-
tive. •
Vehicles with Quadra-Lift air suspension will operate in
Aero mode over a broader speed range. Refer to the
section on Quadra-Lift for further information.
• In SRT models, the transmission will launch (from a
stop) in second gear, and the torque converter clutch
may engage at lower engine speeds and remain on
longer.
• Some ECO mode functions may be temporarily inhib-
ited based on temperature and other factors.
Active Noise Cancellation — Summit And SRT
Models Only
Your vehicle is equipped with an Active Noise Cancellation
System. This system uses four microphones embedded in
the headliner to detect undesirable exhaust noise, which
sometimes occurs when operating in ECO mode. An
onboard frequency generator creates counteracting sound
waves through the audio system to help keep the vehicle
quiet.
Eight–Speed Automatic Transmission
The transmission gear range (PRNDM) is displayed both
beside the gear selector and in the instrument cluster. To
select a gear range, press the lock button on the gear
