STARTING AND DRIVING
386

Preconditioning
•If possible, precondition the vehicle with thecharging cable before driving.
•Avoid parking the vehicle so that the passen-ger compartment becomes too hot or cold.Park, if possible, in a climate controlled park-ing garage.
•For short drives after using the precondition-ing function, turn off the climate systemblower if possible.
•If preconditioning is not possible in coldweather, use the seat and steering wheelheating primarily. Avoid heating the entirepassenger compartment, which reduces thehybrid battery's charge level.

Driving
•Choose the Pure drive mode to help mini-mize electric power consumption.
•Maintain a constant speed and an adequatedistance to the vehicle ahead to minimizeuse of the brakes.
•Brake as gently as possible; doing socharges the hybrid battery using the inte-grated regenerative braking function.
•Balance energy requirements using theaccelerator pedal and utilize the gauge onthe instrument panel to see the amount ofpower available from the electric motor. Thishelps avoid starting the gasoline engineunnecessarily. The electric motor is more
energy-efficient than the gasoline engine,especially at lower speeds.
•In hilly terrain, put the gear selector in modeB to utilize the electric motor's braking func-tion when the accelerator pedal is released.This helps charge the hybrid battery.
•Higher speeds increase energy consumptionand the vehicle's wind resistance increasesalong with speed. Do not exceed postedspeed limits.
•Avoid carrying unnecessary items (extra load)in the vehicle.
•Maintain correct tire pressure. Check tirepressure regularly (when the tires are cold).
•Remove snow tires when threat of snow orice has ended.
•Note that roof racks, ski racks, etc, increaseair resistance and also energy consumption.
•Avoid driving with open windows.

Handling and roadholding
•Vehicle load, tire design and inflation pres-sure all affect vehicle handling. Therefore,check that the tires are inflated to the rec-ommended pressure according to the vehicleload. Loads should be distributed so thatcapacity weight or maximum permissible axleloads are not exceeded.
•At the specified curb weight your vehicle hasa tendency to understeer, which means thatthe steering wheel has to be turned more
than might seem appropriate for the curva-ture of a bend. This ensures good stabilityand reduces the risk of rear wheel skid.Remember that these properties can alterwith the vehicle load. The heavier the load inthe cargo compartment, the less the ten-dency to understeer.

HD Radio limitations

Limitations
•Main channel vs. sub-channels (FM only):The main channel is the only channel thatcan receive in hybrid mode (both digital andanalogue). If a frequency has sub-channels,they are broadcast in digital mode only. Themain FM channel will be displayed as, forexample, "WRIF-FM HD1". The sub-FMchannels will be displayed as"WRIF-FMHD2", "WRIF-FM HD3", etc.
•Reception coverage area: Due to currentIBOC transmitter power limitations, thereception coverage area in digital mode issomewhat more limited than the station'sanalogue coverage area. Please be awarethat as with any radio broadcast technology,terrain, time of day, foliage level and buildinglocation can have positive or negative effectson radio reception.
•Analogue to digital/digital to analogueblending: Analogue to digital blending willoccur as the signal strength reaches a presetthreshold in the receiver. This will be noticea-ble in fringe areas (areas with weak recep-tion) and is normal.
NOTE
There may be a noticeable difference insound quality when a change from analogueto digital or digital to analogue occurs, suchas:
•Volume increase or decrease
•Equalizer settings, i.e., Bass/ Midrange/Treble cut or boost
•Time alignment (Digital program materialin extreme cases can be as much as 8seconds behind the analogue). This willnoticeable as a "stuttering" effect.
The above items are dependant on thebroadcaster's equipment settings and donot indicate a fault in the vehicle's radioreceiver or antenna systems.

SiriusXM® Satellite radio*
The SiriusXM® Satellite system broadcasts fromof a number of high elevation satellites in geo-synchronous orbit.
Listening to satellite radio
The digital signals from the satellites are line-of-sight, which means that physical obstructionssuch as bridges, tunnels, etc, may temporarilyinterfere with signal reception.
Avoid any obstructions, such as metallic objectstransported on roof racks or in a ski box, or otherantennas that may impede signals from the
SiriusXM® satellites.

Cleaning the exterior
The vehicle should be washed at regular inter-vals since dirt, dust, insects and tar spotsadhere to the paint and may cause damage. Tohelp prevent corrosion, it is particularly importantto wash the car frequently in the wintertime.

Hand washing
The following points should be kept in mind whenwashing and cleaning the car:

CAUTION
Avoid using car washing detergents with a pHvalue lower than 3.5 or higher than 11.5.Doing so could result in discoloring of ano-dized aluminum surfaces on e.g., roof rails orthe frames around the side windows.
•Avoid washing your car in direct sunlight.Doing so may cause detergents and wax todry out and become abrasive. To avoidscratching, use lukewarm water to soften thedirt before you wash with a soft sponge, andplenty of sudsy water.
•Bird droppings: Remove from paintwork assoon as possible. Otherwise the finish maybe permanently damaged.
•A car washing detergent can be used tofacilitate the softening of dirt and oil.

•Dry the car with a clean chamois andremember to clean the drain holes in thedoors and rocker panels.
•Tar spots can be removed with tar removerafter the car has been washed.
•A stiff-bristle brush and lukewarm soapywater can be used to clean the wiper blades.Frequent cleaning of the windshield andwiper blades improves visibility considerablyand also helps prolong the service life of thewiper blades.
•Wash off the dirt from the underside (wheelhousings, fenders, etc).
•In areas of high industrial fallout, more fre-quent washing is recommended.

CAUTION
•During high pressure washing, the spraymouthpiece must never be closer to thevehicle than 13" (30 cm). Do not sprayinto the locks.
•Dirt, snow, etc., on the headlights canreduce lighting capacity considerably.Clean the headlights regularly, for exam-ple when refueling.
Special laminated panoramic roof cau-tions:
•Always close the laminated panoramicroof and sun shade before washing yourvehicle.
•Never use abrasive cleaning agents onthe laminated panoramic roof.
•Never use wax on the rubber sealsaround the laminated panoramic roof.

NOTE
When washing the car, remember to removedirt from the drain holes in the doors and sills.

Automatic car washes
•We do NOT recommend washing your car inan automatic wash during the first few
months (because the paint will not havehardened sufficiently).
•An automatic wash is a simple and quick wayto clean your car, but it is worth rememberingthat it may not be as thorough as when youyourself go over the car with sponge andwater. Keeping the underbody clean is mostimportant, especially in the winter. Someautomatic washers do not have facilities forwashing the underbody.
NOTE
Condensation may form temporarily on theinside of the lenses of exterior lights such asheadlights or taillights. This is normal and thelights are designed to withstand moisture.Normally, condensation will dissipate after thelights have been on for a short time.
