It is capable of performing better in a wide variety of off-road applications. Driven in an unsafe manner, all vehicles can go out of control. Because of the higher center of gravity, if this vehicle is out of control it may roll over while some other vehicles may not.
Do not attempt sharp turns, abrupt maneuvers, or other unsafe driving actions that can cause loss of vehicle control. Failure to operate this vehicle safely may result in a collision, rollover of the vehicle, and severe or fatal injury. Drive carefully.

FOOTNOTE

Supplementary and relevant information pertaining to the topic.

Rollover Warning Label

If you do not read the entire Owner’s Manual, you may miss important information. Observe all Cautions and Warnings.

Failure to use the driver and passenger seat belts provided is a major cause of severe or fatal injury. In fact, the US government notes that the universal use of existing seat belts could cut the highway death toll by 10,000 or more each year and could reduce disabling injuries by two million annually. In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is significantly more likely to die than a person wearing a seat belt. Always buckle up.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

HIGH VOLTAGE BATTERY
Your vehicle is equipped with a Lithium-ion high voltage battery that is used to power the electric powertrain systems and the 12 Volt vehicle electrical system.
The high voltage battery is located underneath the vehicle.
Lithium-ion batteries provide the following benefits:
· Lithium-ion batteries are much lighter than other types of rechargeable batteries of the same size.
· Lithium-ion batteries hold their charge; they only lose approximately three percent of their charge per month.
· Lithium-ion batteries have no memory, which means that you do not have to completely discharge them before recharging, as with some other batteries.
· Lithium-ion batteries can be recharged and discharged thousands of times.
High Voltage Battery Service Disconnect
The high voltage battery service disconnect is located under the load floor of the cargo area, at the front left side. Only a qualified service technician should access the high voltage battery service disconnect.
If your vehicle requires high voltage battery service, see an authorized dealer.

WARNING!
· Never try to remove the high voltage battery service disconnect. The high voltage battery service disconnect is used when your vehicle requires service by a qualified technician at an authorized dealership. Failure to follow this warning can result in electrical shock, toxic emissions, fire, and other hazards which can cause death or serious injury including severe burns, respiratory injuries, and blindness.
· The high voltage battery and battery case have no parts that you or an unqualified technician can service. Under no circumstances should you or an unqualified technician open, disassemble, penetrate, or tamper with the high voltage battery, battery case, their cables, or connectors. Damage to these components can result in electrical shock, toxic emissions, fire, and other hazards which can cause death or serious injury including severe burns, respiratory injuries, and blindness. You should take the vehicle to an authorized dealership for any service or maintenance on these high voltage components.
· The high voltage system can be hot during and after starting, and when the vehicle is shut off or charging. Be careful of both the high voltage and the high temperature. Failure to do so can result in severe burns.

Disposal of the High Voltage Battery

Your vehicle’s high voltage battery is designed to last the life of your vehicle. See an authorized dealer for

2

information on the disposal of the battery if it should

require replacement.

WARNING!
Your vehicle contains a sealed Lithium-ion high voltage battery. If the battery is disposed of improperly, there is a risk of electrical shock and toxic emissions which can cause severe burns, respiratory injuries, fires, and other hazards resulting in serious injury or death.

General Information
The vehicle is also equipped with a Battery Management system that is designed to:
· Ensure safe operation · Maximize driving range · Maximize the life expectancy of the high voltage
battery
NOTE: During vehicle start up and shut down, a clicking noise may be heard from within the vehicle. When the vehicle is preparing to start, the high voltage battery contactors inside the battery are closed to make the stored electricity inside available for vehicle use. After the vehicle is shut down, the contactors open to electrically isolate the battery from other vehicle systems. The clicking noise is the sound of these contactors as they open and close during normal operation.

16 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
WARNING!
In the event of a collision:
· If your vehicle is still drivable, pull off the road and place the transmission in the PARK position, apply the parking brake, and turn the vehicle off.
· Check your vehicle to see if there are exposed high-voltage parts or cables. To avoid electrical stock which can result in serious injury or death, never touch wiring, connectors, and other highvoltage parts, such as the inverter unit and the Lithium-ion battery.
· If the vehicle receives a strong impact to the floor while driving, stop the vehicle in a safe location and check the floor.
· Leaks or damage to the Lithium-ion battery may result in a fire and toxic emissions which can cause severe burns, respiratory injuries, and other serious injuries or death. If you discover these leaks, contact emergency services immediately. Since the fluid leak may be Lithium Manganate from the Lithium-ion battery, never touch the fluid leak inside or outside of the vehicle. If the fluid contacts your skin or eyes, wash these areas immediately with a large amount of water and obtain immediate medical attention to help avoid serious injury.
· If a fire occurs inside your vehicle, leave the vehicle as soon as possible. Only use a type ABC, BC, or C fire extinguisher that is meant for use on electrical fires. Using a small amount of water, or the incorrect fire extinguisher can result in serious injury or death from electrical shock.
(Continued)

WARNING!
· If you are not able to safely assess the vehicle due to vehicle damage, do not touch the vehicle. Leave the vehicle and contact emergency services. Advise first responders that this is a hybrid-electric vehicle.
· In the event of an accident that requires bodywork, refer to an authorized dealership.
BATTERY CONDITIONING
In extreme temperatures, high or low, the high voltage battery may need to be conditioned, and therefore may require the vehicle to be plugged in prior to the next use of the vehicle.
If the ambient temperature is 5°F (-15°C) or below at vehicle shut down, the instrument cluster will display the message “Plug In Vehicle To Condition Battery”.
If the battery temperature is below -22°F (-30°C), or 131°F (55°C) or above, the vehicle will NOT start:
· If the vehicle is plugged in at these battery temperatures, the vehicle will not start and the instrument cluster will display the message “Please Leave Key In RUN — Battery Conditioning Needed” until battery conditioning is complete.
· If the vehicle is not plugged in at these battery temperatures, the vehicle will not start and the “Plug In Vehicle To Condition Battery” message will be shown in the instrument cluster display.

NOTE:
· When the “Please Leave Key In RUN — Battery Conditioning Needed” message is displayed, keep the ignition in the RUN position for the battery to recover. Place the ignition back in the OFF position when the message disappears, and then start the vehicle. When this message is displayed, do not operate any air conditioning controls.
· Under these high or low temperatures, while the vehicle is plugged in and the ignition is in the OFF position, the vehicle may “wake up” to precondition the high voltage battery for use.
· It is recommended that the vehicle be plugged in overnight when possible, to maximize the electric range of the vehicle.
The messages will only be displayed when the ignition is in the RUN position and the high voltage battery is not ready to provide propulsion power. The messages will also display if there was a failed attempt to achieve READY state when the high voltage battery cell temperatures were either too cold, or too hot.
REGENERATIVE BRAKING SYSTEM (RBS)
Your vehicle has a RBS. The RBS replenishes the vehicle’s high voltage battery during deceleration, and is particularly useful in stop-and-go city traffic. The electric motors, which propel the vehicle forward, can operate as generators when braking. The RBS recharges the high voltage battery under certain braking conditions by recapturing energy that would otherwise be lost while braking. The electric power that is generated goes back into the high voltage battery for later use, for example when acceleration is desired.

The RBS uses conventional hydraulic friction brakes, regenerative braking, or a combination to slow the vehicle. If the system detects slippery conditions while braking, ONLY friction is used to slow the vehicle. The RBS can result in extended life of the hydraulic service brakes; however, all inspection, scheduled maintenance, and service intervals for the vehicle service brakes must be followed.
Max Regeneration
Max Regeneration is a supplemental feature of the RBS. When activated, it will use the RBS to help slow the vehicle when the driver releases the accelerator pedal. This feature allows you to moderately reduce driving speed without pressing the brake pedal. It is always necessary to apply the brake pedal to bring the vehicle to a complete stop. The Driving History screen shows the value of energy recovered from the highvoltage battery during eCoasting and eBraking energy recovery operations page 30.
· eCoasting: Intervenes in place of the exhaust brake when the throttle is released, allowing energy recovery when slowing down, even when the brake pedal is released. It will differentiate depending on the selected drive mode. When the accelerator pedal is released, the system recovers energy during the slowing down phase of the car. It is always active regardless of the selected drive mode. eCoasting is possible if the automatic transmission is in the Drive position. While in “Sport” mode, eCoasting has a more pronounced deceleration when the accelerator pedal is released. When “Sport” mode is not selected, eCoasting has a setting that favors driving comfort.

· eBraking: eBraking is always active regardless of the selected operating mode, and activates the high-voltage battery charging when the brake pedal is pressed, thereby recovering energy during braking. It is useful when driving in the city, where there are continuous stops and starts. To make the most efficient use the system, the braking phase should be modulated by applying gradual pressure on the brake pedal to allow maximum energy recovery.
E-SELEC MODE
This system allows the driver to select different modes by first pressing the e-Save button located below the gear shifter. Once selected the different modes are customizable in your touchscreen display.
E-Selec Mode Switch
· Hybrid: Prioritizes electric range first, then gas range. Automatically switches between using gas and battery for greatest efficiency and performance. Best heating/cooling and acceleration performance.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 17

· Electric: Prevents the engine from running, unless

you absolutely need it.
Driving in electric mode allows the vehicle to use

up to the full capability of the electric drivetrain,

and if the electric drivetrain is operating at its

peak power, then pressing the accelerator pedal more will not result in more power. To access the

2

full capability of the engine plus electric motors,

switch to Hybrid or e-Save.
Engine will switch on during a Wide Open Throttle

(WOT) event, or if cruise control requires it.
Vehicle will switch to hybrid mode upon reaching

< 1% State of Charge (SOC) or due to system

needs. See page 87 for information on where

to view your vehicle’s SOC.

· e-Save: Aims to maintain a high level of SOC/Electric

range for later use. It can be customized in settings

to increase the SOC to predefined levels.
e-Save settings can be found in the Uconnect

Hybrid Electric App.
When e-Save is selected on a fully charged

vehicle, the SOC will drop slightly for optimal

performance.
The Battery Save setting aims to maintain the

SOC at the current level. Under heavy load, such

as while pulling a trailer, SOC may decrease.

When coasting, the SOC may increase.
The Battery Charge setting uses power from the

engine to increase SOC to the selected target. If

the SOC is above the target when e-Save mode is

activated, then the vehicle will automatically

switch between gas and battery until SOC

reaches the target.
The e-Save mode button must be pressed to acti-

vate Battery Save or Battery Charge.

WARNING!
· The integrated key fob contains a coin cell battery. Do not ingest the battery; there is a chemical burn hazard. If the coin cell battery is swallowed, it can cause severe internal burns in just two hours and can lead to death.
· If you think a battery may have been swallowed or placed inside any part of the body, seek immediate medical attention.
· Keep new and used batteries away from children. If the battery compartment does not close securely, stop using the product and keep it away from children.
Programming And Requesting Additional Key Fobs
Programming the key fob may be performed by an authorized dealer.
NOTE:
· Once a key fob is programmed to a vehicle, it cannot be repurposed and reprogrammed to another vehicle.
· Only key fobs that are programmed to the vehicle electronics can be used to start and operate the vehicle.

WARNING!
· Always remove the key fobs from the vehicle and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle unattended.
· For vehicles equipped with Keyless Enter `n GoTM Ignition, always remember to place the ignition in the OFF position when exiting the vehicle.
Duplication of key fobs may be performed at an authorized dealer. This procedure consists of programming a blank key fob to the vehicle electronics. A blank key fob is one that has never been programmed.
NOTE:
· When having the Sentry Key Immobilizer system serviced, bring all vehicle keys with you to an authorized dealer.
· Keys must be ordered to the correct key cut to match the vehicle locks.
· It is not mandatory to replace the key fob if a new emergency key is needed, and vice versa.
SENTRY KEY
The Sentry Key Immobilizer system prevents unauthorized vehicle operation by disabling the engine. The system does not need to be armed or activated. Operation is automatic, regardless of whether the vehicle is locked or unlocked. The system uses a key fob, keyless push button ignition and a Radio Frequency (RF) receiver to prevent unauthorized vehicle operation. Therefore, only key fobs that are programmed to the vehicle can be used to start and operate the vehicle. The system cannot reprogram a key fob obtained from another vehicle.

After placing the ignition in the ON/RUN position, the Vehicle Security Light will turn on for three seconds for a bulb check. If the light remains on after the bulb check, it indicates that there is a problem with the electronics. In addition, if the light begins to flash after the bulb check, it indicates that someone attempted to start the engine with an invalid key fob. In the event that a valid key fob is used to start the engine but there is an issue with the vehicle electronics, the engine will start and shut off after two seconds. If the Vehicle Security Light turns on during normal vehicle operation (vehicle running for longer than 10 seconds), it indicates that there is a fault in the electronics. Should this occur, have the vehicle serviced as soon as possible by an authorized dealer.
CAUTION!
The Sentry Key Immobilizer system is not compatible with some aftermarket Remote Start systems. Use of these systems may result in vehicle starting problems and loss of security protection.
All of the key fobs provided with your new vehicle have been programmed to the vehicle electronics
page 281.
NOTE: A key fob that has not been programmed is also considered an invalid key.
