The amount of energy being used when
driving is affected by:
•
Mild or aggressive acceleration or
braking.
• Your vehicle's speed.
• Use of accessories, such as climate
control.
• Ambient temperature and weather
conditions.
• Driving in a city or on a highway.
• Driving on flat or hilly roads.
The available energy capacity in the high
voltage battery is affected by cold
temperatures and battery degradation.
See Preserving Your High Voltage
Battery (page 157).
When your navigation system has an active
route the distance to your destination or
next charging station is also displayed.
Note: It is normal for vehicle range
estimates to vary due to changes in average
energy usage and battery temperature. This
could cause different range estimates each
time you fully charge your battery. See
Maximizing Your Driving Range (page 282
).
Note: When you leave your vehicle
unplugged, it periodically uses energy from
the high voltage battery to recharge the
12-volt accessory battery, resulting in
reduction in vehicle driving range.
WHAT IS THE HIGH VOLTAGE
BATTERY GAUGE
Displays the high voltage battery state of
charge in the form of a gauge or a
percentage. A full fill or 100% charge
represents the total amount of energy you
can get from plugging your vehicle in.
The gauge is normally blue. When a low
battery condition is reached the gauge is
amber. When the battery is depleted the
gauge is red. When the full battery gauge is displayed
and your navigation system has an active
route, a symbol is added that represents
the battery charge level needed to reach
your destination or next charging station.
Charging Status
Additional charge information displays
when you power on your vehicle without
pressing the brake pedal and your vehicle
is plugged in. Charging status includes the
charge start or charge end time as
appropriate. When DC charging, the time
at 80% displays followed by the time at
100%. You can modify your vehicle charge
settings on the information and
entertainment display. See
Setting the
Charging Schedule and Preferences
(page
174).
Charge Required to Reach Destination
When the navigation system has an active
route, the instrument cluster displays the
charge level required in order to reach your
destination and the time when that charge
level is available.
WHAT ARE THE INSTRUMENT
CLUSTER WARNING LAMPS
Warning lamps alert you to a vehicle
condition that could become serious.
Some lamps illuminate when you start
your vehicle to make sure they work. If any
lamps remain on after starting your vehicle,
refer to the respective system warning
lamp for further information.

FRONT SEAT PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Sitting improperly, out
of position or with the seatback reclined
too far can take weight off the seat
cushion and affect the decision of the
passenger sensing system, resulting in
serious injury or death in the event of a
crash. Always sit upright against your
seat back, with your feet on the floor. WARNING: Do not recline the seat
backrest too far as this can cause the
occupant to slide under the seatbelt,
resulting in personal injury in the event
of a crash. WARNING:
Do not place objects
higher than the top of the seat backrest.
Failure to follow this instruction could
result in personal injury or death in the
event of a sudden stop or crash. WARNING: Do not adjust the driver
seat or seat backrest when your vehicle
is moving. This may result in sudden seat
movement, causing the loss of control
of your vehicle. SITTING IN THE CORRECT
POSITION When you use them properly, the seat,
head restraint, seatbelt and airbags will
provide optimum protection in the event
of a crash.
We recommend that you follow these
guidelines:
•
Sit in an upright position with the base
of your spine as far back as possible.
• Do not recline the seat backrest so that
your torso is more than 30 degrees
from the upright position.
• Adjust the head restraint so that the
top of it is level with the top of your
head and as far forward as possible.
Make sure that you remain
comfortable.
• Keep sufficient distance between
yourself and the steering wheel. We
recommend a minimum of
10 in
(25 cm) between your breastbone and
the airbag cover.
• Hold the steering wheel with your arms
slightly bent.
