STARTING THE ENGINE
STARTING A GASOLINE ENGINE
Before starting your vehicle, check thefollowing:
•Make sure that the headlamps andelectrical accessories are off.
•Make sure that the parking brake is on.
•Make sure that the transmission is in park(P).
1.Fully press the brake pedal.
Note:Do not touch the accelerator pedal.
2.Press the push button ignition switch.
Note:The engine may continue cranking forup to 15 seconds or until it starts.
Note:The engine takes longer to start atlower temperatures. It may crank for severalseconds when very cold.
STARTING A HYBRID ELECTRICVEHICLE SYSTEM
Before starting your vehicle, check thefollowing:
•Make sure the headlamps and electricalaccessories are off.
•Make sure the parking brake is on.
•Make sure the transmission is in park (P).
Note:Do not touch the accelerator pedal.
1.Fully press the brake pedal.
2.Press the push button ignition switch.

WHAT IS A HYBRID ELECTRIC
VEHICLE
A hybrid vehicle has an electric motor and ahigh voltage battery combined with agasoline engine.
HOW DOES A HYBRID ELECTRIC
VEHICLE WORK
The hybrid vehicle combines electric andgasoline propulsion to provide optimalperformance and improved efficiency.
HYBRID ELECTRIC VEHICLE
DRIVING CHARACTERISTICS
The gasoline engine starts and stops toprovide power when required and to savefuel when not needed. When coasting at lowspeeds, coming to a stop or standing, thegas engine normally shuts down and yourvehicle operates in electric-only mode.
Conditions that may cause the gasolineengine to start or remain running include:
•Considerable vehicle acceleration.
•Driving uphill.
•The high voltage battery charge level islow.
•Heating or cooling the vehicle interior inhigh or low outside temperatures.
•The gasoline engine is below normaloperating temperature.
•Towing a trailer.
•Certain selectable drive modes couldcause the engine to run. See Selectinga Drive Mode (page 338).
Your hybrid vehicle also comes with standardhydraulic braking and regenerative braking.Regenerative braking is performed by yourtransmission and captures brake energy andstores it in the high voltage battery.
You could also notice that your enginecontinues to run instead of shutting off duringextended downhill driving. The engine stayson during this engine braking but is not usingany fuel.
You could also hear a slight whine or whistlewhen operating your vehicle. This is thenormal operation of the electric motor in thehybrid system.
Note:Having your engine running is notalways an indication of inefficiency. In somecases, it is actually more efficient thandriving in electric mode.
HYBRID ELECTRIC VEHICLE
INDICATORS
When you start your vehicle, agreen READY indicator lightappears in the instrument clusterletting you know that your vehicle is readyfor driving.
The engine may not start because yourvehicle has a silent key start feature. Thisfuel saving feature allows your vehicle to beready to drive without requiring the gasengine to be running.

The indicator remains on when your vehicleis on, whether the engine is running or not,to indicate your vehicle is capable ofmovement using the electric motor, gasengine or both.
Typically, the engine does not start unlessthe vehicle is cold, a climate control changeis requested or you press the acceleratorpedal.

HYBRID ELECTRIC VEHICLEINFORMATION – FREQUENTLY ASKEDQUESTIONS
What should I do if the vehicle runs out offuel and the high voltage battery is out ofcharge?
Refuel and start your vehicle normally.The engine will recharge the highvoltage battery.
Why does the engine sometimes start atkey-on?
The vehicle's computer determines if anengine start is required at key-on. Itstarts the engine when necessary forcabin heating, windshield defrost, or ifthe outside temperature is low.
Can I put E15 or E85 in my vehicle, and howwill it affect my fuel economy?
Your hybrid vehicle can use E15 (15%ethanol, 85% gasoline) fuel, but you maynotice slightly reduced fuel economybecause ethanol contains less energyper gallon than gasoline. Your hybridvehicle is not designed to use E85 (85%ethanol).
Why does it take a long time before theengine shuts down?
There are several reasons the enginestays on for an extended amount of timewhen you first start it. One commonreason is to make sure that theemissions components are warmenough to minimize tailpipe emission.As the climate gets cooler, theengine-on time is extended.

Why does my engine stay on when it isextremely cold outside?
In order to make sure that the climatecontrol system can begin heating thecabin or defrosting the windshield assoon as a driver requests it, the enginecoolant temperature has to be keptsufficiently hot. Keeping the engine onis required to maintain the correctcoolant temperature.
PLUG-IN HYBRID ELECTRIC VEHICLE
INFORMATION
WHAT IS A PLUG-IN HYBRID ELECTRICVEHICLE
A plug-in hybrid electric vehicle combines agasoline engine with an electric motor andrechargeable high voltage battery allowingyou to use only electricity to power yourvehicle.
HOW DOES A PLUG-IN HYBRIDELECTRIC VEHICLE WORK
Charging your vehicle adds electrical energythat propels the vehicle, providing extendedelectric-only driving range. System conditionscould require the engine to operate whileelectric-only range is still available. When theelectric range reaches zero, the powertrainsystem operates as a hybrid electric vehicle.See How Does a Hybrid Electric VehicleWork (page 213).
PLUG-IN HYBRID ELECTRIC VEHICLEDRIVING CHARACTERISTICS
Your plug-in hybrid vehicle shares the drivingcharacteristics of hybrid electric vehicles withthe addition of extended electric- only drivingrange and unique selectable drive modes.See Hybrid Electric Vehicle DrivingCharacteristics (page 213).
The system maximizes the use ofelectric-only operation in normal drive mode.System conditions could require the engineto operate, however, the system uses theavailable electric range whenever possible.
In Pure EV drive mode, your vehicle typicallyuses only electric power. The engineoperates to provide extra power when youfully press the accelerator pedal. Systemconditions may also require the engine tooperate.
Preserve EV drive mode saves the electricrange for later use. If you select this modeand the battery is at full or near full charge,it uses some electric-only range to dischargethe battery. This allows the regenerativebraking system to fully operate. If batterycharge is low when this mode is selected theengine charges the high voltage battery toprovide some electric range for later.
Other drive modes use electric power asnecessary to deliver the selected drive modeexperience. See What Is Drive ModeControl (page 338).
PLUG-IN HYBRID ELECTRIC VEHICLEINDICATORS
When you start your vehicle, agreen ready indicator light appearsin the instrument cluster letting youknow that your vehicle is ready for driving.
215
2023 Corsair (CTF) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202208, DOMHybrid Electric Vehicle Information - Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV)E293827
The engine may not start because yourvehicle has a silent key start feature. Thisfuel saving feature allows your vehicle to beready to drive without requiring the gasengine to be running.
The indicator remains on when your vehicleis on, whether the engine is running or not,to indicate your vehicle is capable ofmovement using the electric motor, gasengine or both.
Typically, the engine does not start unlessthe vehicle is cold, a climate control changeis requested or you press the acceleratorpedal.
WHAT IS LOW ENGINE USE MODE
Low engine use mode maintains properengine lubrication at sufficient temperatureand activates when you drive your vehiclewith limited engine operation.
HOW DOES LOW ENGINE USE MODEWORK
When in low engine use mode, your vehicleruns the engine as necessary. When lowengine use mode begins, a message appearsin the information display. If low engine usemode does not complete before you switchyour vehicle off, it continues the next timeyou start your vehicle and the messagereappears.
Note:Pure EV now mode is not availablewhen in low engine use mode.
Note:Cold temperatures affect the enginewarm up time and the low engine use modemay operate more frequently.
Note:An oil change is not required but givesyou the option of not running a low engineuse cycle. Resetting the oil life monitoringsystem suspends the low engine use mode.
