HYBRID VEHICLE OPERATION
This hybrid vehicle combines electric and
gasoline propulsion to provide
breakthrough performance and improved
efficiency. Familiarizing yourself with these
unique characteristics provides an optimal
driving experience from your vehicle.
Starting
When you start your vehicle, a
green READY indicator light
appears in the instrument cluster
letting you know that your vehicle is ready
for driving.
The engine may not start because your
vehicle has a silent key start feature. This
fuel saving feature allows your vehicle to
be ready to drive without requiring the gas
engine to be running. The indicator remains
on when your vehicle is on, whether the
engine is running or not, to indicate your
vehicle is capable of movement using the
electric motor, gas engine or both.
Typically, the engine does not start unless
your vehicle is cold, or you request a
climate control change, or press the
accelerator pedal.
Driving
The gas engine starts and stops to provide
power when needed and to save fuel when
not needed. When coasting at low speeds,
coming to a stop, or standing, the gas
engine normally shuts down and your
vehicle operates in electric-only mode.
Conditions that could cause the engine to
start up or remain running include:
• Considerably accelerating your vehicle.
• Climbing a hill.
• Charge level of the high voltage battery
is low.
• High or low outside temperatures
causing the system to heat or cool. •
Engine not warm enough to provide a
desirable temperature for the
passenger.
• Towing a trailer.
• Selectable drive modes. Certain
selectable drive modes could cause
the engine to run. See What Is Drive
Mode Control (page 178).
Stopping
The gas engine could shut off to conserve
fuel as you come to a stop. You do not
have to restart your vehicle. Simply step
on the accelerator when you are ready to
drive.
Transmission Operation
The engine and electric motor together
propel the vehicle through the automatic
transmission. This is normal hybrid
operating and helps deliver fuel efficiency
and performance.
Battery
Your hybrid vehicle has a high voltage
battery. A cool battery maintains battery
life and provides the best possible
performance. The air conditioning system
cools the high voltage battery. When the
air conditioning system is on and cooling
the battery, there could be a slight increase
in air temperature coming from the climate
control vents.
During extended downhill driving, the
engine continues to run instead of shutting
off. During this engine braking, the engine
stays on, but it is not using any fuel. You
could also hear a slight whine or whistle
when operating your vehicle. This is the
normal operation of the electric motor in
the hybrid system.
