Always cycle the ignition to OFF mode before opening
the hood. If the ignition is in ON mode and the
Propulsion System is active when the hood is opened,
the engine will automatically start, and persons not
clear of the vehicle could be seriously injured by the
engine’s moving parts.
126 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

•Unless reset, this message will continue to display each
time the ignition is cycled to the ON/RUN position.
• To reset the oil change indicator after performing the
scheduled maintenance, refer to the following proce-
dure.
Without pressing the brake pedal, push the ENGINE
START/STOP button and place the ignition in the ON/
RUN position (do not start the vehicle.)
1. Push the OKbutton to enter the instrument cluster
display menu screen.
2. Push and release the downarrow button to access the
”Oil Life” menu screen.
3. Push the leftarrow button or right arrow button to
access the “Vehicle Info” submenu.
4. Hold the OKbutton to reset the “Oil Life” to 100%.
5. Push the uparrow button to exit the instrument cluster
display menu screen.
NOTE: If the indicator message illuminates when you
start the vehicle, the oil change indicator system did not
reset. If necessary, repeat this procedure.Fuel And Oil Refresh Mode
Since it is possible to operate this vehicle for extended
periods of time without running the gas engine, the fuel
within the vehicle’s fuel tank can become stale. To prevent
engine and/or fuel system damage due to stale fuel, as
well as, maintaining internal engine lubrication, this ve-
hicle is equipped with a “Fuel and Oil Refresh Mode”.
The vehicle will automatically enter into the Fuel and Oil
Refresh Mode to minimize potential for stale fuel, and to
ensure lubrication of internal engine components. When
operating in this mode, the gas engine will run to provide
vehicle propulsion (electric only operation is inhibited). A
message will be displayed in the instrument cluster when-
ever Fuel and Oil Refresh Mode is active.
The vehicle will automatically exit the Fuel and Oil Refresh
Mode when conditions have been satisfied. If the vehicle
enters Fuel and Oil Refresh Mode, due to fuel which has
been in the fuel tank for a long period of time (becoming
stale fuel), the engine will run whenever the vehicle is
operational (no electric only operation) until the low fuel
level warning is activated. It is possible to exit the Fuel and
Oil Refresh Mode sooner by adding new fuel to the
vehicle’s fuel tank.

STARTING THE VEHICLE
Before starting your vehicle, adjust your seat, adjust both
inside and outside mirrors, and fasten your seat belts.
WARNING!
•When exiting the vehicle, always remove the key fob
from the vehicle and lock your vehicle.
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle.
• Allowing children to be in a vehicle unattended is
dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or others
could be seriously or fatally injured. Children
should be warned not to touch the parking brake,
brake pedal or the transmission gear selector.
• Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, or in
a location accessible to children, and do not leave the
ignition of a vehicle equipped with Keyless Enter-
N-Go in the ACC or ON/RUN mode. A child could
operate power windows, other controls, or move the
vehicle.
• Do not leave children or animals inside parked
vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat build-up may
cause serious injury or death. Request Propulsion System Active (PSA) or “Vehicle is
Ready to Drive” mode with the gear selector in the PARK
position. Apply the brake before shifting to any driving
range.
NOTE:
In case the ignition switch does not change with the
push of a button, the key fob may have a low or dead
battery. In this situation, a back up method can be used to
operate the ignition switch. Put the nose side of the key fob
(side opposite of the Emergency Key) against the ENGINE
START/STOP button and push to operate the ignition
switch.
Normal Starting
NOTE: Normal starting of either a cold or a warm engine
is obtained without pumping or pressing the accelerator
pedal.
Achieving Vehicle Is Ready To Drive Mode Using The
ENGINE START / STOP Button.
1. The transmission must be in PARK or NEUTRAL.
2. Press and hold the brake pedal while pushing the ENGINE START/STOP button once.
3. The vehicle will go into drive ready mode (Vehicle is Ready to Drive is indicated on the cluster), which may
278 STARTING AND OPERATING

include the start of the engine depending on conditions
such as battery state of charge and engine temperature.
4. If you wish to terminate Vehicle is Ready to Drive mode, push the button again.
ENGINE START/STOP Button Functions — With Driv-
er ’s Foot OFF The Brake Pedal (In PARK Or NEUTRAL
Position)
The ENGINE START/STOP button operates similar to an
ignition switch by providing three positions: OFF, ACC
and RUN. To change the ignition mode without starting
the vehicle (to power certain accessories), follow these
steps:
1. Starting with the ignition in the OFF mode.
2. Push the ENGINE START/STOP button once, without brake pedal being pressed, to place the ignition in the
ACC mode (instrument cluster will display “ACC”).
3. Push the ENGINE START/STOP button a second time, without brake pedal being pressed, to place the ignition
in the RUN mode (instrument cluster will display
“Ignition or Accessory On”). NOTE:
•The vehicle is not able to be driven in the “Ignition or
Accessory On” mode, see “Achieving Vehicle Is Ready
To Drive Mode Using the ENGINE START / STOP
Button” previously defined in this section for further
information.
• The rotary gear selector will turn but only PARK and
NEUTRAL are accessible in the “Ignition or Accessory
On” mode.
4. Push the ENGINE START/STOP button a third time, without brake pedal being pressed, to return the igni-
tion to the OFF mode (instrument cluster will display
“OFF”).
Cold Weather Operation
If the outside ambient temperature is 5°F (-15°C) or below,
the instrument cluster will request the vehicle to be
plugged in to provide conditioning of the vehicle high
voltage battery.
After Starting
To optimize energy efficiency, the vehicle will automati-
cally control engine operation.

STARTING AND OPERATING 279

To Turn Off The Vehicle Using ENGINE
START/STOP Button
1. Place the gear selector in PARK, then push and releasethe ENGINE START/STOP button.
2. The ignition switch will return to the OFF position.
3. If the gear selector is not in PARK, with vehicle speed less than 5 mph (8 km/h), when the ENGINE START/
STOP button is pushed, the instrument cluster display
will display a “Vehicle Not In Park” message, and the
vehicle will remain running.
4. If the gear selector is not in PARK, with vehicle speed greater than 5 mph (8 km/h), when the ENGINE
START/STOP button is pushed continuously for at least
two seconds (or three short pushes in a row) the vehicle
ignition mode will exit Drive Readymode and enter
Accessory mode. Never leave a vehicle out of the
PARK position, or it could roll. NOTE:
•
This vehicle is equipped with an automatic shutdown
feature. If the vehicle is left in a “READY” state (vehicle
running) with the shifter in “PARK” for one hour, the
vehicle will automatically turn itself off.
• The vehicle provides automatic notification, using a
three Horn Chirp Alert, cluster chiming, and a cluster
message (Key Fob has Left the Vehicle) if the vehicle
was not turned OFF (still Ready to Drive) and a valid
FOB for the vehicle is not detected within the passenger
cabin, following the opening and closing of any passen-
ger compartment door (requires all doors to be closed
before the FOB check will occur). These automatic alerts
are to remind the driver to turn OFF the vehicle before
leaving it, as well as, to let the driver know that the
vehicle’s FOB may have been unintentionally removed
from the vehicle by an exiting passenger. After provid-
ing the horn chirp alert, additional auto chirps will be
inhibited until the shifter has been moved out of Park or
ignition cycled.
280 STARTING AND OPERATING

To Decrease Speed
While ACC is set, the set speed can be decreased by
pushing the SET(-)button.
The driver’s preferred units can be selected through the
Uconnect Settings if equipped. Refer to “Uconnect Set-
tings” in “Multimedia” for more information. The speed
decrement shown is dependant on the chosen speed unit of
U.S. (mph) or Metric (km/h):
U.S. Speed (mph)
• Pushing the SET (-)button once will result in a 1 mph
decrease in set speed. Each subsequent tap of the button
results in a decrease of 1 mph.
• If the button is continually pushed, the set speed will
continue to decrease in 5 mph decrements until the
button is released. The decrease in set speed is reflected
in the instrument cluster display.
Metric Speed (km/h)
• Pushing the SET (-)button once will result in a 1 km/h
decrease in set speed. Each subsequent tap of the button
results in a decrease of 1 km/h. •
If the button is continually pushed, the set speed will
continue to decrease in 10 km/h decrements until the
button is released. The decrease in set speed is reflected
in the instrument cluster display.
NOTE:
• When you override and push the SET (+)button or SET
(-) buttons, the new set speed will be the current speed
of the vehicle.
• When you use the SET (-)button to decelerate, if the
powertrain braking power does not slow the vehicle
sufficiently to reach the set speed, the brake system will
automatically slow the vehicle.
• The ACC system decelerates the vehicle to a full stop
when following a target vehicle. If an ACC host vehicle
follows a target vehicle to a standstill, after two seconds
the driver will either have to push the RES (resume)
button, or apply the accelerator pedal to reengage the
ACC to the existing set speed.
• The ACC system maintains set speed when driving up
hill and down hill. However, a slight speed change on
moderate hills is normal. When driving up hill and
down hill, the ACC system will cancel if the braking
temperature exceeds normal range (overheated).
6
STARTING AND OPERATING 303

NOTE:The “Brake!” Screen in the instrument cluster
display is a warning for the driver to take action and does
not necessarily mean that the Forward Collision Warning
system is applying the brakes autonomously.
Overtake Aid
When driving with ACC engaged and following a vehicle,
the system will provide an additional acceleration up to the
ACC set speed to assist in passing the vehicle. This
additional acceleration is triggered when the driver utilizes
the left turn signal and will only be active when passing on
the left hand side.
ACC Operation At Stop
In the event that the ACC system brings your vehicle to a
standstill while following a target vehicle, if the target
vehicle starts moving within two seconds of your vehicle
coming to a standstill, your vehicle will resume motion
without the need for any driver action.
If the target vehicle does not start moving within two
seconds of your vehicle coming to a standstill, the driver
will either have to push the RES (resume) button, or apply
the accelerator pedal to reengage the ACC to the existing
Set Speed.
NOTE: After the ACC system holds your vehicle at a
standstill for approximately 3 consecutive minutes, the
parking brake will be activated, and the ACC system will
be cancelled.
While ACC is holding your vehicle at a standstill, if the
driver seatbelt is unbuckled or the driver door is opened,
the parking brake will be activated, and the ACC system
will be cancelled.
