Warning Light
This warning light should come
on briefly when the vehicle is
turned on. If the light does not
come on, have it fixed so it will
be ready to warn if there is a
problem.
If the light comes on while
driving, safely stop as soon as
it is possible and turn off the
vehicle. Then turn on the
vehicle again to reset the
system.
If the ABS warning light stays
on, or comes on again while
driving, the vehicle needs
service. A chime may also
sound when the light stays on.If the ABS warning light is the
only light on, the vehicle has
regular brakes, but ABS is not
functioning.
If both the ABS warning light
and the brake system warning
light are on, ABS is not
functioning and there is a
problem with the regular
brakes. See your dealer for
service.

Information
Driving for Better
Energy Efficiency
Use the tips in the categories
below 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 Energy Usage card
available on the Driver
Information Center (DIC)
estimates the influence of the
main factors impacting vehicle
range. It displays how energy
is being used for the current
drive since the last time the
vehicle was started. See
Driver Information Center
(DIC) 0132 and
Vehicle Information 0133.

Driving and Operating 197
moving at 100 km/h (60 mph)
travels 20 m (66 ft), which
could be a lot of distance in an
emergency.
Helpful braking tips to keep in
mind include:
.Keep enough distance
between you and the vehicle
in front of you.
.Avoid needless heavy
braking.
.Keep pace with traffic.
Steering
Electric Power SteeringCaution
To avoid damage to the
steering system, do not
drive over curbs, parking
barriers, or similar objects at
speeds greater than 3 km/h
(1 mph). Use care when
driving over other objects
such as lane dividers and
speed bumps. Damage (Continued)
Caution (Continued)
caused by misuse of the
vehicle is not covered by the
vehicle warranty.
The vehicle has electric power
steering. It does not have
power steering fluid. Regular
maintenance is not required.
If power steering assist is lost
due to a system malfunction,
the vehicle can be steered, but
may require increased effort. If the steering assist is used
for an extended period of time
while the vehicle is not moving,
power assist may be reduced.
If the steering wheel is turned
until it reaches the end of its
travel and is held against that
position for an extended
period of time, power steering
assist may be reduced.
Normal use of the power
steering assist should return
when the system cools down.
See your dealer if there is a
problem.
Curve Tips
.Take curves at a reasonable
speed.
.Reduce speed before
entering a curve.
.Maintain a reasonable
steady speed through the
curve.
.Wait until the vehicle is out
of the curve before
accelerating gently into the
straightaway.
