STARTING THE VEHICLE/ON
With the vehicle in Park or Neutral, press the brake pedal and then press the POWER button. A power ON audio cue will sound.
The vehicle will not shift out of Park and a Charge Cord Connected message will display if the vehicle is still plugged in.
The instrument cluster will display an active battery gauge and the READY READY icon will appear when the
vehicle is ready to be driven.
STOPPING THE VEHICLE/OFF
Shift to Park and then press the POWER button. A power OFF audio cue will sound.
PEDESTRIAN SAFETY SIGNAL
Due to its quiet operation, the vehicle is equipped with automatic sound\
generation. The automatic sound is generated to indicate the vehicle’s presence to pe\
destrians.
ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE
To apply the parking brake, pull up the
Parking Brake switch by the shift lever.
To release the parking brake, turn on the vehicle, press the brake pedal, and then press the switch.
See Driving and Operating in your Owner’s Manual.
GETTING STARTED
DRIVER’S SEAT AND STEERING WHEEL ADJUSTMENT
Before driving, adjust the steering wheel and seat to a comfortable position.
Pull down the lever (A) to unlock the steering wheel and adjust its position.
Lift the handle (B) under the right-front side of the seat to slide the seat forward or rearward.
Ratchet the side lever (C) up or down to raise or lower the seat.
Lift the rear lever (D) to adjust the seatback.

ELECTRONIC PRECISION SHIFT
The electronic drive unit shift lever always starts in a center position\
, represented by a dot on the shift pattern on top of the shift lever. The selected gear positi\
on illuminates in red. After shifting, the shift lever returns to the center position.
Park – Press the button on top of the lever (A) to shift into Park.
To shift out of Park, with the vehicle ON and the brake pedal applied, press and hold the shift lock button on the side of the lever (B) and select the desired gear.
Reverse – Press and hold the shift lock
button on the side of the lever (B) and move the lever forward and then left to shift into Reverse.
Neutral – Move and hold the lever forward for 1/2 second to shift into Neutr\
al.
Note: The transmission will not stay in Neutral for an extended period. It will automatically shift into Park.
Drive – Move the lever rearward to shift into Drive.
One-Pedal Driving – With the transmission in Drive, pull the lever rearward to the L (Low) position to enable “one-pedal” driving. When the accelerat\
or pedal is not applied, regenerative braking is active to help slow the vehicle. Use the brake p\
edal for additional braking or panic stops. Pull the lever rearward again to return to Drive\
.
Note: Regenerative braking features may be limited when the battery is near full charge or cold. Always use the brake pedal if you need to stop immediately. This mode may be used at any vehicle speed, but is not recommended during inclement weather.
AUTOMATED CAR WASH MODE
To place the transmission in Neutral with the vehicle running:
1. While pressing the brake pedal, open the driver’s door and then shift\
to Neutral.
2. The indicator should show N. If it does not, select Neutral again.
3. Upon returning to the vehicle, shift into Park.
SPORT MODE
Press the SPORT button on the center of the instrument panel to select the Normal or Sport driving mode.
Normal (Default)
Use in normal driving conditions for
efficient operation. This mode is active each time the vehicle is started.
Sport
Use when more performance is needed. This mode increases throttle response. The Sport indicator will illuminate on the instrument cluster.
See Driving and Operating in your Owner’s Manual.

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
The instrument cluster features a digital screen that can be configured in 3 different themes.
Classic – Displays basic information on speed, range and other operations along with an efficiency bar that glows green to
yellow based on driving efficiency.
Modern – Displays basic information plus power usage and an efficiency ball that moves up or down based on driving efficiency.
Enhanced – Displays basic information plus a maximum and minimum range indicator, power usage and an efficiency ring that glows green to yellow based on driving efficiency.
CLUSTER DISPLAY ZONES
Press the or button on the Driver Information Center (DIC) controls,
located on the right side of the steering wheel, to move between the different display zones.
Press the or button on the DIC
controls to scroll through the display menus.
Press the button on the DIC controls to select a highlighted item.
CLUSTER LAYOUTS

DRIVING EFFICIENTLY
IMPACTS ON RANGE
A number of factors influence energy use and electric range. Keep thes\
e factors in mind while driving in order to maximize range:
Technique – Avoid rapid acceleration or braking. Higher speeds use more energy and significantly reduce range.
Terrain – Varying road conditions, such as hills, rain, snow and wind, impact range.
Climate Settings – The energy needed to warm or cool the vehicle’s cabin and
propulsion battery can cause range to decline. Using Fan Only settings will increase efficiency.
Outside Temperature – Hotter or colder air has an effect on vehicle aerodynamics and range.
To view these factors on electric range, go to Energy > Information > Ra\
nge Impacts: Since Last Full Charge on the infotainment screen. A positive number inc\
reases the vehicle’s energy usage rating.
EFFICIENCY GAUGES
Use the Driver Information Center controls to select an instrument cluster layout that displays the green efficiency bar, ball or ring indicator.
While driving, try to keep the bar or ring green, or the ball in the center of the gauge, depending on the cluster theme selected. The bar or ring will turn yellow or the ball will move up or down during inefficient acceleration or aggressive braking.
REGEN ON DEMAND™
Regen on Demand temporarily regener-ates energy from the vehicle’s momentum and stores it in the high voltage propulsion
battery for later use.
To activate Regen on Demand, pull and hold the left paddle on the back of the steering wheel without pressing the brake pedal or accelerator pedal.
While pulling the paddle, the vehicle will begin to decelerate using regenerative braking. Regen on Demand is deact\
ivated once the paddle is released or the accelerator pedal is pressed.
