English Single Battery Gauge Shown, OthersSimilar
This displays the high voltage battery state
of charge. The value at the bottom is an
estimate of how far the vehicle can be
driven on the remaining charge based on
recent driving habits, conditions, and HVAC
usage.
The fill bars shown inside of the gauge
indicate the percentage range as estimated
from current vehicle conditions and climate
settings. The range estimate on the bottom
also may be affected by climate settings,
current vehicle conditions and ambient
conditions. Estimated range may increase
and decrease based on climate control
energy consumption. Driving aggressively through hard
acceleration and/or braking events, excessive
HVAC usage, using heated or cooled seats,
battery preconditioning, and performance
modes can affect vehicle range estimates.
When the high voltage battery state of
charge level gets low, the gauge will change
color to amber. When the charge is very low
the gauge will flash, and the estimated
range value on the bottom will change to
LOW. Additional alerts may display and a
sound may also be heard at low state of
charge.
Power Indicator Gauge
Single Power Indicator Gauge Shown, Others
Similar The power indicator gauge is in the center
of the display to the right of the
speedometer in the Single Gauge layout.
This gauge displays the instantaneous
charge and consumption power of the high
voltage battery. Maximum power
consumption is available when the high
voltage battery is fully charged. During
normal operation, a slight reduction in
consumption power may occur as the high
voltage battery state of charge decreases.
Regenerative Braking
When regenerative braking is active, the
regen battery icon displays and will fill the
lower section of the gauge. The power
indicator gauge value shows the amount of
instantaneous power being regenerated.
Regenerative Power Limited
Regenerative power may be limited when
the high voltage battery is near full charge
or cold. This will affect the vehicle’s
maximum regenerative braking power.

working. If it does not come on then, have
it fixed so it will be ready to warn you if
there is a problem.
When the vehicle is on, the brake system
warning light also comes on when the
parking brake is set. The light stays on if
the parking brake does not fully release. If it
stays on after the parking brake is fully
released, there is a brake problem. Have the
brake system inspected right away. This
light may come on if the brake fluid is low.
See
Brake Fluid 0329.
If the light comes on while driving, pull off
the road and stop carefully. The brake pedal
might be harder to push, or the brake pedal
may go closer to the floor. It could take
longer to stop. If the light is still on, have
the vehicle towed for service. See

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.

Charging
Important Information about Electric Vehicle
Charging
.Charging an electric vehicle can stress a
building’s electrical system more than a
typical household appliance.
.Charge cord limits can vary from vehicle
to vehicle, and increased charging rates
can stress a building’s electrical system.
.Before plugging into any electrical outlet,
have a qualified electrician inspect and
verify the electrical system (electrical
outlet, wiring, junctions, and protection
devices) for heavy-duty service at a
12 amp continuous load.
.Electrical outlets may wear out with
normal usage or may be damaged over
time, making them unsuitable for electric
vehicle charging.
.Check the electrical outlet/plug while
charging and discontinue use if the
electrical outlet/plug is hot, then have the
electrical outlet serviced by a qualified
electrician.
.When outdoors, plug into an electrical
outlet that is weatherproof while in use.
.Mount the charging cord to reduce strain
on the electrical outlet/plug.
.Do not place the charge cord in a position
where it is expected to be submerged in
water.
{Danger
Improper use of portable electric vehicle
charge cords may cause a fire, electrical
shock, or burns, and may result in
damage to property, serious injury,
or death.
.Do not use extension cords,
multi-outlet power strips, splitters,
grounding adapters, surge protectors,
or similar devices.
.Do not use an electrical outlet that is
worn or damaged, or will not hold the
plug firmly in place.
.Do not use an electrical outlet that is
not properly grounded.
.Do not use an electrical outlet that is
on a circuit with other electrical loads.
