approaching this zone and the
system is clean, the system may
need service. Take the vehicle to
your dealer.
Lane Departure
Warning (LDW)
If equipped, LDW may help avoid
crashes due to unintentional lane
departures. It may provide a
warning if the vehicle is crossing a
detected lane marking without using
a turn signal in the lane departure
direction. Since this system is part
of the Lane Keep Assist (LKA)
system, read the entire LKA section
before using this feature.
Lane Keep Assist (LKA)
If equipped, LKA may help avoid
crashes due to unintentional lane
departures. It may assist by gently
turning the steering wheel if the
vehicle approaches a detected lane
marking without using a turn signal
in that direction. It may also provide
a Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
system alert as the lane marking iscrossed. The LKA system will not
assist or provide an LDW alert if it
detects that you are actively
steering. Override LKA by turning
the steering wheel. LKA uses a
camera to detect lane markings
between 60 km/h (37 mph) and
155 km/h (96 mph).
{Warning
The LKA system does not
continuously steer the vehicle.
It may not keep the vehicle in the
lane or give a Lane Departure
Warning (LDW) alert, even if a
lane marking is detected. The
LKA and LDW systems may not:
. Provide an alert or enough
steering assist to avoid a
lane departure or crash.
. Detect lane markings under
poor weather or visibility
conditions. This can occur if
the windshield or
headlamps are blocked by
dirt, snow, or ice, if they are
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
not in proper condition, or if
the sun shines directly into
the camera.
. Detect road edges.
. Detect lanes on winding or
hilly roads.
If LKA only detects lane markings
on one side of the road, it will
only assist or provide an LDW
alert when approaching the lane
on the side where it has detected
a lane marking. Even with LKA
and LDW, you must steer the
vehicle. Always keep your
attention on the road and
maintain proper vehicle position
within the lane, or vehicle
damage, injury, or death could
occur. Always keep the
windshield, headlamps, and
camera sensors clean and in
good repair. Do not use LKA in
bad weather conditions.

234 Driving and Operating
{Warning
Using LKA on slippery roads
could cause loss of control of the
vehicle and a crash. Turn the
system off.
How the System Works
The LKA camera sensor is on the
windshield ahead of the rearview
mirror.
To turn LKA on and off, press
A
on the steering wheel.
When on,
Ais green if LKA is
available to assist and provide LDW
alerts. It may assist by gently
turning the steering wheel and
display
Aas amber if the vehicle
approaches a detected lane marking
without using a turn signal in that
direction. It may also provide an
LDW alert by flashing
Aamber
as the lane marking is crossed. Additionally, there may be three
beeps on the right or left, depending
on the lane departure direction.
The LKA system does not
continuously steer the vehicle.
If LKA does not detect active driver
steering, an alert and chime may be
provided. Move the steering wheel
to dismiss.
When the System Does Not
Seem to Work Properly
The system performance may be
affected by:
.
Close vehicles ahead.
. Sudden lighting changes, such
as when driving through tunnels.
. Banked roads.
. Roads with poor lane markings,
such as two-lane roads.
If the LKA system is not functioning
properly when lane markings are
clearly visible, cleaning the
windshield may help. LKA assistance and/or LDW alerts
may occur due to tar marks,
shadows, cracks in the road,
temporary or construction lane
markings, or other road
imperfections. This is normal system
operation; the vehicle does not need
service. Turn LKA off if these
conditions continue.

Charging
When to Charge
When the high voltage battery is
getting low, charging messages may
display.
The CHARGE VEHICLE SOON
message indicates that the driving
range is low and the vehicle needs
to be charged soon. As the charge
level drops, the PROPULSION
POWER IS REDUCED message is
displayed and the accelerator pedal
response is reduced. In addition, the
remaining range value will change
to LOW indicating the vehicle
should be charged immediately.
When the energy is fully depleted,
the OUT OF ENERGY, CHARGE
VEHICLE NOW message displays
and the vehicle slows to a stop.
Brake and steering assist will still
operate. Once the vehicle has
stopped, turn the vehicle off.
Plug-In Charging
This section explains the process
for charging the high voltage battery.
Do not allow the vehicle to remain in
temperature extremes for long
periods without being driven or
plugged in. It is recommended that
the vehicle be plugged in when
temperatures are below 0 °C (32 °F)
and above 32 °C (90 °F) to
maximize high voltage battery life.
When using a 120-volt AC electrical
outlet, it will take approximately
50 hours to charge the vehicle from
a fully depleted battery with the
12 amp AC current setting, allowing
approximately 6 km (4 mi) for every
hour of charging.
When using a 240-volt charging
station, it will take approximately
9.5 hours to charge the vehicle with
the 32 amp setting, allowing
approximately 40 km (25 mi) for
every hour of charging.Charge times will vary based on
battery condition, charge level, and
outside temperature. See
Programmable Charging
0131 for
charge mode selection.
If equipped, the vehicle can be
charged using DC charging
equipment typically found at service
stations and other public locations.
When using a DC charging station
with at least 80 kW of available
power, it will take approximately
30 minutes to recharge from a
depleted battery to an estimated
145 km (90 mi) of driving range.
This time estimate is applicable to
nominal temperature ranges. In
extreme hot or cold conditions, this
time may be lengthened. A full
charge will take additional time.
The charging system may run fans
and pumps that result in sounds
from the vehicle while it is turned
off. Additionally, clicking sounds
may be caused by the electrical
devices used while charging.
