Climate Controls 177
Rear Window Defogger
1REAR :If equipped, press to turn the
rear window defogger on or off. An indicator
light on the button comes on to show that
the rear window defogger is on.
The rear window defogger only works when
the vehicle is on. The defogger turns off if
the vehicle is turned off.
If the vehicle is equipped with heated
outside mirrors, they turn on when the rear
window defogger button is on and help to
clear fog or frost from the surface of the
mirror. See Heated Mirrors 036.
Caution
Using a razor blade or sharp object to
clear the inside rear window can damage
the rear window defogger. Repairs would
not be covered by the vehicle warranty.
Do not clear the inside rear window with
sharp objects.
Remote Start Climate Control Operation :
If equipped with remote start, the climate
control system may run when the vehicle is
started remotely. If equipped with heated or ventilated seats or a heated steering wheel,
these features may come on during a
remote start. See
Remote Vehicle Start 014,
Heated and Ventilated Front Seats 047, and
Heated Steering Wheel 097.
Sensors
The solar sensor, on top of the instrument
panel near the windshield, monitors the
solar heat.
The climate control system uses the sensor
information to adjust the temperature, fan
speed, recirculation, and air delivery mode
for best comfort. Do not cover the sensor; otherwise the
automatic climate control system may not
work properly.
Afterblow Feature
If equipped, under certain conditions, the
fan may stay on or may turn on and off
several times after you turn off and lock the
vehicle. This is normal.
ECO Climate
When ECO Climate is on, airflow to
unoccupied rear seats will be reduced for
energy efficiency. To turn ECO Climate off or
on, select Settings > Vehicle > Climate and
Air Quality > ECO Climate.
Air Vents
Use the sliding knobs on the center and side
air vents to change the direction of the
airflow.
Air vents blow warm air on the side
windows in cold weather. If Floor, Defog,
or Defrost modes are selected, a small
amount of air will come from the vents
closest to the window.

190 Driving and Operating
{Warning
Wet brakes can cause crashes. They
might not work as well in a quick stop
and could cause pulling to one side. You
could lose control of the vehicle.
After driving through a large puddle of
water or a car/vehicle wash, lightly apply
the brake pedal until the brakes work
normally.
Flowing or rushing water creates strong
forces. Driving through flowing water
could cause the vehicle to be carried
away. If this happens, you and other
vehicle occupants could drown. Do not
ignore police warnings and be very
cautious about trying to drive through
flowing water.
Hydroplaning
Hydroplaning is dangerous. Water can build
up under the vehicle's tires so they actually
ride on the water. This can happen when
the road is wet and you are driving fast.
When the vehicle is hydroplaning, it has
little or no contact with the road.There is no hard and fast rule about
hydroplaning. The best advice is to slow
down when the road is wet.
Other Rainy Weather Tips
Besides slowing down, other wet weather
driving tips include:
.Allow extra following distance.
.Pass with caution.
.Keep windshield wiping equipment in
good shape, and keep the windshield
washer fluid reservoir filled.
.Ensure the tires are maintained and have
proper tread depth. See
Tires0344.
.Turn off any cruise control, if equipped.
See Adaptive Cruise Control (Advanced)
0 217 or
Super Cruise 0227.
.Turn off One-Pedal Driving mode. See
One-Pedal Driving 0203.
.Turn on the Traction Control System (TCS)
and the Electronic Stability Control (ESC).
See Traction Control/Electronic Stability
Control 0207.
Hill and Mountain Roads
{Warning
Do not charge your vehicle’s battery
above an 80% charge if you are going to
drive down long, steep grades such as
mountain passes. This provides room in
the battery for regenerative braking to
supplement your conventional brakes
during the descent. This is especially
important when towing a trailer, which
puts additional stress on your vehicle’s
braking system.
If the battery becomes full, regenerative
braking will be limited or unavailable. The
brakes will have to do all the work of
slowing down the vehicle and could
become too hot. Hot brakes may not be
able to slow the vehicle enough to
maintain speed and control. To help avoid
the risk of a crash, limit the battery’s
charge and, if you experience brake fade
or receive a brake warning, stop the
vehicle and allow the brakes to cool.
See “Charge Now” underCharging 0123
for information on setting charge limits.

16702912) - 2024 - CRC - 1/17/23
Driving and Operating 191
Driving on steep hills or through mountains
is different than driving on flat or rolling
terrain. Be sure to:
.Use regenerative braking to help slow the
vehicle or maintain speed by keeping the
vehicle in gear and limiting the initial
battery charge to 80% or less. See
Regenerative Braking0206.
.When braking is necessary, use frequent,
light taps of the brake pedal. This
maximizes regenerative braking and
minimizes the load on the vehicle brake
system.
.Keep the vehicle serviced and in good
shape.
.Check all fluid levels, brakes, tires, and
cooling system.
.Drive at speeds that keep the vehicle in
its own lane. Do not swing wide or cross
the center line.
.Be alert on top of hills; something could
be in your lane (e.g., stalled car, crash).
.Pay attention to special road signs (e.g.,
falling rocks area, winding roads, long
grades, passing or no-passing zones) and
take appropriate action.
Winter Driving
Driving on Snow or Ice
Caution
To avoid damage to the wheels and
brake components, always clear snow and
ice from inside the wheels and
underneath the vehicle before driving.
Snow or ice between the tires and the road
creates less traction or grip, so drive
carefully. Wet ice can occur at about 0°C
(32°F) when freezing rain begins to fall.
Avoid driving on wet ice or in freezing rain
until roads can be treated.
For Slippery Road Driving:
.Turn off cruise control.
.If enabled, turn off One-Pedal Driving. See
One-Pedal Driving 0203.
.If turned off, turn on the Traction Control
System (TCS) and Electronic Stability
Control (ESC). See Traction Control/
Electronic Stability Control 0207.
.Select the Snow/Ice driver mode. See
Driver Mode Control 0209.
.Accelerate gently. Accelerating too quickly
causes the wheels to spin and makes the
surface under the tires slick.
.Allow greater following distance and
watch for slippery spots. Icy patches can
occur on otherwise clear roads in shaded
areas. The surface of a curve or an
overpass can remain icy when the
surrounding roads are clear. Avoid sudden
steering maneuvers and braking while
on ice.
.The Antilock Brake System (ABS) improves
vehicle stability during hard stops, but
the brakes should be applied sooner than
when on dry pavement. See Antilock
Brake System (ABS) 0204.
.Avoid using the Regen on Demand
paddle. See Regenerative Braking 0206.
Blizzard Conditions
If you become stranded or cannot continue
driving due to winter storm conditions, stop
the vehicle in a safe place and signal for
help. If possible, use Roadside Assistance
Program 0399. Stay with the vehicle unless
there is help nearby.
