Propulsion Power Messages
REDUCED ACCELERATION DRIVE
WITH CARE
This message displays when the vehicle's
propulsion power is reduced. A reduction in
propulsion power can affect the vehicle's
ability to accelerate. If this message is on,
but there is no observed reduction in
performance, proceed to your destination.
Under certain conditions, the performance
may be reduced the next time the vehicle is
driven. The vehicle may be driven while this
message is on, but maximum acceleration
and speed may be reduced. Anytime this
message stays on, or displays repeatedly,
the vehicle should be taken to your dealer
for service as soon as possible.
This message can be displayed when the
high voltage battery charge level is low. This
is normal behavior as the vehicle is limiting
power due to reduced battery capability. Under certain operating conditions
propulsion will be disabled. Try restarting
after the vehicle has been off for
two minutes.
PROPULSION POWER REDUCED DUE TO
TEMPERATURE
This message displays when the vehicle is
on, the battery temperature is low, and
when the vehicle’s performance is limited.
The duration of the limited vehicle
performance depends, in part, on the high
voltage battery charge level. If the high
voltage battery charge level is relatively
high, as the vehicle is driven, the battery
temperature will increase, and the vehicle
will return to normal operation. If the high
voltage battery charge level is relatively low
the vehicle will not return to normal
operation until charged.
Keep the vehicle plugged in, even when fully
charged, to keep the high voltage battery
temperature ready for the next drive. This is
important when outside temperatures are
extremely hot or cold.

Helpful Hints for Speaking Commands
Voice recognition identifies commands that
are naturally stated in sentence form,
or direct commands that state the
application and the task.
For best results:

fast, not too slow.
.Use direct commands without a lot of
extra words. For example, “Call
at work,” “Play” followed by the artist or
song name, or “Play”followed by the
radio station number. Direct commands are more clearly
understood by the system. An example of a
direct command is
“Call
If a cell phone number was saved with a
name and a place, the direct command
should include both. For example “Call
