Lighting Features
Entry Lighting
Some exterior lamps and the interior
lamps turn on briefly at night when
the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter
Kis pressed. See
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
System Operation 08. The lights
turn off immediately when the
vehicle is started or automatically
after a brief period.
This feature can be turned on or off.
See “Vehicle Locator Lights” under
Vehicle Personalization 0121.
Exit Lighting
Some exterior lamps come on at
night when the vehicle is turned off
and the driver door is opened.
Some interior lamps also come on
when the vehicle is turned off. The
exterior lamps and interior lamps
remain on after the door is closed
for a brief period and then turn off.
This feature can be turned on or off.
See Vehicle Personalization 0121.
Battery Power Protection
The battery saver feature is
designed to protect the vehicle's
12-volt battery.
If some interior lamps and/or the
headlamps are left on and the
vehicle is turned off, the battery
rundown protection system
automatically turns the lamp off after
some time.
Exterior Lighting Battery
Saver
The exterior lamps turn off about
10 minutes after the ignition is
turned off, if the parking lamps or
headlamps have been manually left
on. This protects against draining
the battery. To restart the 10-minute
timer, turn the exterior lamp control
to the off position and then back to
the parking lamp or headlamp
position.
To keep the lamps on for more than
10 minutes, the ignition must be on.

166 Climate Controls
Caution
Do not try to clear frost or other
material from the inside of the
front windshield and rear window
with a razor blade or anything
else that is sharp. This may
damage the rear window
defogger grid and affect the
radio's ability to pick up stations
clearly. The repairs would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.
Remote Start : The climate control
system may be started by using the
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter. The climate control
system will default to an appropriate
heating or cooling mode. See
Remote Start 015.
The rear window defogger turns on
if it is cold outside.
Mobile Application Feature
If equipped, this feature allows a
smartphone to set the start-up
climate control settings. The
following features can be set: .
Temperature
. Fan Speed
. Air Delivery Mode
. Climate Mode
. Recirculation
Once the settings are saved through
the application, the vehicle will use
these settings when turned on. After
the vehicle is turned on, use the
climate controls if additional
adjustments are desired.
Sensors
Indicator Light and Solar
Sensor (ILSS)
The ILSS is on top of the instrument
panel, near the windshield, where it
monitors solar intensity.
The climate control system uses the
sensor information to adjust the
temperature, fan speed,
recirculation, and air delivery mode
for best comfort. Do not cover the sensor; otherwise
the automatic climate control system
may not work properly.
Humidity Sensor
The humidity sensor is near the
base of the inside rearview mirror.
The climate control system uses the
sensor information to adjust the
temperature and recirculation for
best comfort.
Outside Air Temperature Sensor
The outside air temperature sensor
is behind the front grille of the
vehicle. The vehicle uses the sensor
information to display outside air
temperature. The climate control
system uses the information to
adjust the climate system operation.

Driving and Operating 171
Driving Information
Driving for Better Energy
Efficiency
Use the following tips to help
maximize energy efficiency and
range.
In colder temperatures, while these
efficiency tips will help, the electric
vehicle driving range will be lower
due to higher energy usage
including energy spent heating the
cabin.
The Range Impacts screen
estimates the influence of the main
factors impacting vehicle range.
After charging is complete, this
information is reset. See“Range
Impacts” underEnergy Information
0 115.
Acceleration/Braking/Coasting
Avoid rapid accelerations and
decelerations.
Electric range is maximized at
89 km/h (55 mph) and less. Use cruise control when
appropriate.
Plan ahead for decelerations and
coast whenever possible. Do not
rush to traffic signals, and do not
shift to N (Neutral) to coast.
The vehicle recovers more energy
while coasting and braking in
L (Low) than in D (Drive) mode.
Using the steering wheel paddle
during deceleration recovers more
energy. See
Regenerative Braking
0 194.
Terrain and Vehicle Speed
Higher speeds and grade changes
use more energy and can
significantly reduce electric range.
Climate Setting
Using the heat and air conditioning
systems decreases the energy
available for electric driving.
Optimal energy efficiency is
achieved when the heat, air
conditioning, and fan are turned off. Use the heated seat feature instead
of climate control system. Heating
the seat uses less energy than
heating the vehicle interior.
Use remote start to heat or cool the
interior when the vehicle is plugged
in to maximize the electric range by
utilizing electricity from the electrical
outlet.
In hot weather, avoid parking in
direct sunlight or use sunshades
inside the vehicle.
Keep the inside of the windows
clean to reduce fogging, and turn off
the front defroster and rear defogger
when they are not needed.
Avoid driving with the windows open
at highway speeds.
Use the Enhanced Battery Gauge
on the Instrument Cluster to view
the effect of climate control settings
on your estimated range. See
Battery Gauge (High Voltage)
098.
Outside Temperature
On colder days, it is best to plug in
the vehicle overnight, and then
remote start the vehicle.
