overheated seat heater may cause a burn
or may damage the seat.
If equipped, the heated seat controls are on
the infotainment display. To operate, the
vehicle must be on.
Touch
MorLto heat the driver or
passenger seat cushion. Indicator lights on
the infotainment display show the current
setting with three level indicators for high,
medium, or low.
Touch the screen once for the highest
setting. With each touch of the screen, the
heated seat will change to the next lower
setting, and then to the off setting. The
lights indicate three for the highest setting
and one for the lowest. If the front heated seats are on high, the
level may automatically be lowered after
approximately 30 minutes. The passenger
seat may take longer to heat up.
Auto Heated Seats
When the vehicle is on, this feature will
automatically activate the heated seats at
the level required by the vehicle’s interior
temperature. In auto mode, the indicators
automatically show the level setting
required.
Use the manual heated seat buttons to turn
auto heated seats off. Once this feature is
turned off, the auto heated seats will be
activated the next time the vehicle is
started. In manual mode, the controls can
be accessed while the vehicle is on by
touchingMorL.
If the passenger seat is unoccupied, the auto
heated seats feature will not activate
that seat.
The auto heated seats feature can be
programmed to always be enabled when
the vehicle is on. See Vehicle Personalization
0 101.
Remote Start Heated Seats
When it is cold outside, the heated seats
can be turned on automatically during a
remote vehicle start.
The heated seats will be canceled when the
vehicle is started. If the auto heated seats
are enabled in vehicle personalization, the
seat heating level will automatically change
to the level required by the vehicle's interior
temperature when the vehicle is on.
The temperature performance of an
unoccupied seat may be reduced. This is
normal.
The heated seats will not turn on during a
remote start unless the heated seat feature
is enabled. See Vehicle Personalization 0101.
If equipped, the heated steering wheel will
turn on automatically during a remote start
if it is cold outside. The heated seat
indicators and heated steering wheel
indicator may not come on during this
operation.

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” under. See Energy Information
0 97.
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
0165.
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)
0 82.
Outside Temperature
On colder days, it is best to plug in the
vehicle overnight, and then remote start the
vehicle.
Allow the vehicle to warm up for
20 minutes before driving.
If possible, use a level 2 (240 volt) high
power charge station for best results. This
allows the interior of the vehicle and high
voltage battery to warm to optimal
temperature.
