•
Cover interior trim to prevent fading.
• Keep all rubber parts free from oil and
solvents.
Engine
• Change the engine oil and filter prior to
storage because used engine oil
contains contaminates which may
cause engine damage.
• Start the engine every 15 days for a
minimum of 15 minutes. Run at fast
idle with the climate controls set to
defrost until the engine reaches normal
operating temperature.
• With your foot on the brake, shift
through all the gears while the engine
is running.
• We recommend that you change the
engine oil before you use your vehicle
again.
Fuel system
• Fill the fuel tank with high-quality fuel
until the first automatic shutoff of the
fuel pump nozzle.
Cooling system
• Protect against freezing temperatures.
• When removing your vehicle from
storage, check coolant fluid level.
Confirm that there are no cooling
system leaks and that fluid is at the
recommended level.
Disconnecting Your 12 Volt Battery
• Check and recharge as necessary. Keep
connections clean.
• If storing your vehicle for more than 30
days without recharging the battery,
we recommend that you disconnect
the battery cables to maintain battery
charge for quick starting. Note:
It is necessary to reset memory
features if you disconnect the battery
cables.
Plugging in Your HYBRID
We recommend the following options for
your plug-in vehicle (PHEV) :
• Leave your vehicle plugged in. The 12
volt battery maintains power if left
plugged in. However, this periodically
uses electricity from the household
outlet.
• Connect a battery charger to your 12
volt battery and leave it on a
continuous, slow charge.
• Disconnect the 12 volt battery. If your
12 volt battery is located in the luggage
compartment, do not fully shut the
luggage compartment after
disconnecting the 12 volt battery. Only
leave the luggage compartment open
if your vehicle is stored in a locked
location.
Brakes
• Make sure the brakes and parking brake
release fully.
Tires
• Maintain recommended air pressure.
Miscellaneous
• Make sure all linkages, cables, levers
and pins under your vehicle are covered
with grease to prevent rust.
• Move vehicles at least 25 ft (7.5 m)
every 15 days to lubricate working parts
and prevent corrosion.

The battery-to-motor flow includes
battery power the vehicle is using for
acceleration. It does not include energy the
vehicle is using for accessories (such as air
conditioning, headlights and radio). This
screen displays accessories and climate
usage separately. 2
Accessories indicates electrical power
demands from your vehicle ’s accessory
systems. Accessories use power but do not
contribute to making the vehicle move. The
power flow displays power usage from the
climate control system and other
accessories separately.
3 The climate control system may
determine A/C is necessary even when you
turn it off. In this case, you may see some
climate power when the A/C is off. Engine On Due To
The engine is on because of the heater setting. Reduce
or turn off the heater setting to return to electric mode.
Heater Setting
The engine is on because the vehicle speed exceeds
the level for electric mode operation. Reduce the speed
to return to electric mode.
High Speed
The engine is on when applying pressure to the acceler-
ator pedal or switching on the speed control. Reduce
pressure on the accelerator pedal or switch off the
speed control to return to full electric mode.
Drive Power
The engine is on because the vehicle is in neutral gear.
Shift out of neutral gear to return to electric mode.
Neutral Gear
The engine is on because the vehicle is in low gear. Shift
out of low gear to return to electric mode.
Low Gear
The engine is on to charge the high-voltage battery. The
vehicle returns to electric mode once the battery is
charged.
Battery Charging
The engine is on to maintain engine oil quality. The
vehicle returns to electric mode when low engine use
mode is complete. See
Hybrid Vehicle Operation
(page 148).
Low Use
(Energi Only)
The engine is on due to high or low high-voltage battery
temperature. This is a normal operating condition. The
vehicle returns to electric mode automatically when
possible.
