Hybrid Electric Pages
Within your Uconnect 4C/4C NAV system is the “Hybrid
Electric Pages” App that allows you to see your vehicle’s
power flow, understand your drive history, and set an
EVSE charging schedule for your vehicle’s high voltage
battery. To access this app, press the “Apps” button on the
main menu bar of the radio’s touch screen, and locate the
“Hybrid Electric” App. Pressing the “Hybrid Electric
Pages” App brings you to a set of three pages: Power Flow,
Driving History, and Charging Schedule.
Power Flow
The first screen within the “Hybrid Electric Pages” App is
the Power Flow screen. The Power Flow screen shows the
current power readings for all of the following:
•Engine - Shows the amount of power (in kW) the engine
is generating. Based on vehicle operating conditions, this
power is used to: propel the vehicle, provide passenger
compartment heating & cooling, power vehicle electrical
loads, and charge the High Voltage Battery. Engine
operation is controlled to maximize fuel economy.
• Battery - Shows the amount of power (in kW) the high
voltage battery is currently providing/absorbing. A
negative kW indicates the vehicle’s high voltage battery
is charging.
• Climate - Shows the amount of power (in kW) the
climate control system is using to maintain the current
interior temperature.

Charging Schedule
The third screen within the “Hybrid Electric Pages” App is
the Charging Schedule screen. From this screen you can set
when you want you vehicle to charge. To do so, press the
check box next to the setting “Enable Schedule” until a
check mark appears in the box, from there you can push
the ‘Weekdays’ or ‘Weekends’ schedule to adjust the start
and end time of desired charging. You can also choose“Charge Until Full” instead of choosing an end time,
allowing the vehicle to continue to charge for an amount of
time after the start time until the vehicle is fully charged, as
long as the vehicle is plugged in. The Charging Schedule
can also be set using the Uconnect App on your smart-
phone.
NOTE:
If the charging schedule is not enabled, the vehicle
will charge whenever plugged in. It is not necessary to set
up the charging schedule to charge the vehicle.

NOTE:If the vehicle is plugged in outside of the charging
schedule set in the Uconnect 4C radio, the vehicle’s battery
will not charge. Charging will only begin immediately if
the vehicle is plugged in within the time and day of the
week set in the schedule. Otherwise, charging will auto-
matically begin when the selected charge time/day of the
week occurs or whenever the vehicle is plugged in with no
charge schedule set.
If the vehicle is turned off outside of the charging window,
a radio pop-up message will be displayed, which provides
an option to begin charging the vehicle immediately. The
pop-up message asks the driver if they would like to
“Charge Now?” and provides other information, including
the next charging schedule start time and estimated time to
charge the battery to 100%. If within one hour of selecting
“Yes,” the vehicle is connected to a powered EVSE, the
vehicle will immediately begin to charge (temporarily
ignoring any set charge schedule). To fully deactivate the
charge schedule, refer to the “Charging Schedule” feature
within the “Hybrid Electric Pages” App.
The charging schedule can also be overridden if the EVSE
is plugged in, unplugged, and then plugged in a second
time to the vehicle. This “double plugged-in” feature will
override the schedule that is set in the radio, and begin charging the vehicle immediately. The double plug se-
quence must be completed within ten seconds for it to
override the programed schedule.
KEYS
Key Fob
Your vehicle uses a keyless ignition system. The ignition
system consists of a key fob with Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) and a START/STOP push button ignition system.
The Remote Keyless Entry system consists of a key fob and
Keyless Enter-N-Go feature if equipped.
NOTE:
The key fob may not be found if it is located next to
a mobile phone, laptop or other electronic device; these
devices may block the key fob’s wireless signal.
This system allows you to lock or unlock the doors and
liftgate, activate the Panic Alarm, optional power liftgate,
left power sliding door, and right power sliding door from
distances up to approximately 66 ft (20 m) using a hand-
held key fob. The key fob does not need to be pointed at the
vehicle to activate the system.

Battery Saver On/Battery Saver Mode Message —
Electrical Load Reduction Actions — If Equipped
The vehicle is equipped with an Intelligent Battery Sensor
(IBS) to perform additional monitoring of the 12 volt
electrical system and status of the 12 volt vehicle battery.
In cases when the IBS detects charging system failure, or
the 12 volt vehicle battery conditions are deteriorating,
electrical load reduction actions will take place to extend
the driving time and distance of the vehicle. This is done by
reducing power to or turning off non-essential 12 volt
electrical loads. Load reduction will be functional when the
vehicle propulsion system is active.
The vehicle may not be running depending on the HV
battery SOC or temperature. It will display a message if
there is a risk of battery depletion to the point where the
vehicle may stall due to lack of electrical supply, or will not
restart after the current drive cycle.
When 12 volt load reduction is activated, the message
“Battery Saver On” or “Battery Saver Mode” will appear in
the Instrument Cluster Display.
These messages indicate the 12 volt vehicle battery has a
low state of charge and continues to lose electrical charge at
a rate that the charging system cannot sustain.
