GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

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 under the vehicle. The high voltage battery is maintenance free and designed to last for the life of 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 3 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. HVIL (High Voltage InterLock) Device Disconnect The HVIL device disconnect should be done using the high voltage interlock loop connector located in the rear luggage box. If your vehicle requires service, see an authorized dealer.

WARNING!
Never try to remove the HVIL device. The
HVIL device 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 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 ignition device is moved to ON/RUN, the high voltage battery contactors inside the battery are closed to make the stored electricity inside available

for vehicle use. The clicking noise observed is the sound of these contactors as they open and close and is normal operation for your 500e.
The operating temperature range of the high voltage
battery is -22 °F to 122 °F (-30 °C to 50 °C). If it is attempted to operate the vehicle with the battery outside of these temperature extremes it will not function.
The Pedestrian Acoustic Warning system will emit
a noise from when a gear other than P (Park) is engaged and remains active as long as the car is
ð travelling at a speed of 15 mph (25 km/h). For more
information on this system, see page 132
.
WARNING!
In the event of a collision:
If your vehicle is still drivable, pull off to the
side of the road, when safe to do so, and place the transmission in the PARK position, apply the parking brake, and turn the vehicle off.
Beware of any exposed high-voltage parts or
cables. To avoid electrical shock which can result in serious injury or death, never touch wiring, connectors, and other high-voltage parts, such as the inverter unit and the Lithium-ion battery.
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
(Continued)

WARNING! 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. 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 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. 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 Keep Battery Conditioned”.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 13

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 instrument cluster will display

the message “Please Leave Key In RUN — Battery

Conditioning Needed”.

If the vehicle is not plugged in at these battery

2

temperatures, the “Plug In Vehicle To Condition

Battery” will be shown in the instrument cluster

display.

If the battery temperature is below -27°F (-33°C),
the message “Please Leave Key In RUN — Battery Conditioning Needed” will be displayed whether the vehicle is plugged in or not.

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, if 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 ON/RUN position and the high voltage battery is not ready to provide propulsion power. The

14 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE message also displays if there is a failed attempt to achieve READY state when the high voltage battery cell temperatures are either too cold or too hot.

The Portable Charging Cordset (EVSE) is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING! INSTRUCTIONS PERTAINING TO A RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK: Do not use the Portable Charging Cordset (EVSE) on electrical circuits with two-prong outlets; use with improper outlets could result in electric shock, fire, property damage, and death or serious injury. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the wall outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug prongs provided with the Portable Charging Corset (EVSE) ­ if it does not fit the outlet, you must have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

Charging Cordset Operation
1. Insert the AC plug prongs of the Portable Charging Cordset (EVSE) into a 15 A, or 20 A, 120 VAC, 60 Hz, grounded wall outlet. Do not use an extension cord, outlet/plug adapter, or a worn outlet. The Portable Charging Cordset (EVSE) will not operate safely unless it is plugged directly into the wall outlet. NOTE: The Portable Charging Cordset (EVSE) should be plugged into a dedicated circuit, not a circuit shared with other devices drawing electricity on the circuit.

Inserting The Charge Connector Into The Vehicle Charge Inlet
4. When the vehicle commences charging, the Charge Active indicator lights on the Portable Charging Cordset (EVSE) will cycle from left to right, and then both turn off. This pattern will repeat while the vehicle is charging. The lights are illuminated at the rate of approximately one cycle per second. NOTE: The vehicle should start charging automatically. If not, please check the following:
Portable Charging Cordset (EVSE) — The
Portable Charging Cordset (EVSE) status
ð indicators illuminate green or red to identify the
charging status page 18.

18 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
Wall Outlet — Check whether the wall outlet
is functional (no power outage) and/or plug the Portable Charging Cordset (EVSE) into a different wall outlet.
Charging Schedule — Check whether or not
the charging schedules have been enabled. If enabled, check that you are within the scheduled time and day of the week. If a charging schedule has been enabled in the vehicle, and it is outside the time and day of the week, you may override the schedule for this charging event by plugging in the charge connector, unplugging it, and then plugging it back into the vehicle charge inlet. Complete the double plug sequence within 10 seconds for it to override the set schedule.
Hood Ajar — Check whether the hood is open.
Charging is disabled while the hood is open, and will resume when the hood closes.
5. To stop the charging process, disconnect the Portable Charging Cordset (EVSE) from the vehicle first, and then from the wall outlet. To disengage the vehicle coupler, push the button on the connector. The disengagement is needed to unlock the vehicle.

Removing The Charge Connector From The Vehicle Charge Inlet
6. Close the inlet door when a Portable Charging Cordset (EVSE) is not connected to the vehicle.
NOTE: It is good practice to keep the ignition device in OFF while conducting Level 1 charging. This minimizes any additional vehicle loads the Portable Charging Cordset (EVSE) has to support. The additional electrical loads will extend the high voltage battery charging time.
Troubleshooting Using The Status Indicator Display
If the vehicle is not charging properly, consult the status indicator lights. The AC Power Indicator displays the status and safety of the input power. If this indicator is green, the power is within acceptable limits to charge the vehicle. If only the AC Power Indicator is flashing red, then there is a problem with the AC power at the electrical outlet. If the AC Power Indicator does not return to green, then the outlet should be inspected by a qualified electrician

to ensure the voltage, frequency, and grounding are compliant to national and local electrical codes and ordinances. It may be possible to attempt charging from a different outlet. The Fault Indicator displays the status of the Portable Charging Cordset (EVSE) and the vehicle connection. The Portable Charging Cordset (EVSE) will not allow charging while the fault indicator is red. If it is off, the Portable Charging Cordset (EVSE) has not detected any internal faults, or faults with the vehicle connection. If the Fault Indicator is flashing red, there is a fault detected either with the Portable Charging Cordset (EVSE), electronics, or with the vehicle connection. The Portable Charging Cordset (EVSE) may attempt to retry to provide current to the vehicle if the fault is cleared. If the Portable Charging Cordset (EVSE) does not attempt to provide charge to the vehicle, the charge connector will need to be removed from the vehicle to clear the fault. The fault code list in the following table provides a reference for the important faults that are detected by the Portable Charging Cordset (EVSE). When a fault is detected, the AC Power Indicator, the Fault Indicator, or both the AC Power and Fault Indicators will flash red. If only the AC Power Indicator is red, there is a problem on the AC Power side of the unit. If only the Fault Indicator is flashing red, there is a problem internal to the unit or with the vehicle. If both the AC Power and Fault Indicators are flashing red, an over temperature condition is detected at either the AC plug or within the Portable Charging Cordset (EVSE) enclosure. Additional information about the faults is provided by a fault code that is displayed on the two green Charge Active Indicators. The fault code consists of four digits, each with a value of 1 or 2. The value of

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 19

a digit is the number of indicators illuminated for that part of the sequence. For example, fault code (1, 2, 1, 1) will display the following sequence: One indicator will illuminate for 0.3 seconds, then two indicators will illuminate, then one indicator, and finally one indicator will illuminate. After all four fault code digits have been displayed, the indicators will remain off for one second before repeating the sequence.

VEHICLE CHARGE INDICATORS

Instrument Cluster High Voltage Battery Display

There is a battery display indicator located on the instrument cluster. The battery display will indicate the current State Of Charge (SOC) for the high voltage battery; with the percentage value located to the top of the bar. When plugged in, the battery symbol also indicates the battery level along with messages about the charge or whether the system is waiting to charge due to the charge schedule. These will appear unless there is a charging fault. A green plug telltale will be shown in the cluster, as well as applicable messaging when charging.

22 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

High Voltage Battery Display Instrument Panel State Of Charge Indicator In addition to the battery display in the instrument cluster, your vehicle is equipped with a visual SOC indicator. The SOC indicator is made up of five lights

that are mounted to the left of the charge port, which will illuminate when the vehicle is plugged into the charging system.
Charge Port SOC Indicator

The SOC indicator provides a visual indication of the high voltage battery’s charge status during charging. It is also used to indicate a charging problem as well as waiting for a scheduled charge to begin.
NOTE: The lights scroll one at a time when the vehicle is plugged in outside of its charging schedule time/day of the week, and it is waiting on the schedule to begin charging.
In extreme hot or cold environments, the lights on the SOC indicator may not illuminate. Charge status is available in the instrument cluster display. In the event of an error in the charging process, the outer two lights will blink.
When the hood is open, the lights on the SOC indicator will not be illuminated.

Number Of Indicator Lights Illuminated 1st light blinks 1st light on, 2nd light blinks 1st and 2nd lights on, 3rd light blinks 1st, 2nd, and 3rd lights on, 4th light blinks 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th lights on, 5th light blinks All 5 lights on Two outer lights are blinking Lights turn on one at a time from left to right (when looking at the front of the vehicle) All lights turn on, then immediately turn off

Percent Of Battery Charge 0 ­ 20% 21 ­ 40% 41 ­ 60% 61 ­ 80% 81 ­ 99% 100% Indicates an error in the charging process Indicates system is waiting for scheduled time in charge schedule to begin charging Indicates a successful plug-in

NOTE: For each segment of lights illuminated indicating the percent of battery charge, two different blink rates are used. A blink rate of 1 second on/1 second off indicates that the first half is charging. The blink rate will increase to 0.5 second on/0.5 second off to indicate that the second half is charging. When the battery is fully charged, the blinking stops and the lights remain illuminated as charging continues.

If the charging schedule is not enabled, the vehicle
will charge whenever plugged in. It is not necessary to set up the charging schedule to charge the vehicle.
If the vehicle is plugged in outside of the charging
schedule set in the Uconnect system (and Charge Until Full is not selected), the vehicle’s battery will not charge. Charging will only begin immediately if the vehicle is plugged in within the time and day of the week set in the schedule. Otherwise, charging will automatically begin when the selected charge time/day of the week occurs or whenever the vehicle is plugged in with no charge schedule set.
If the vehicle is turned off outside of the charging
window, a radio pop-up message will be displayed, which provides an option to begin charging the vehicle immediately. The pop-up message asks the driver if they would like to “Charge Now?” and provides other information, including the next

charging schedule start time and estimated time to charge the battery to 100%. If within one hour of selecting “Yes,” the vehicle is connected to a powered EVSE, the vehicle will immediately begin to charge (temporarily ignoring any set charge schedule). To fully deactivate the charge schedule, refer to the “Schedules” feature within the Electric Vehicle App.
The charging schedule can also be overridden if an
EVSE is plugged in, unplugged, and then plugged in a second time to the vehicle. This “double plug sequence” will override the schedule that is set in the radio, and begin charging the vehicle immediately. The double plug sequence must be completed within 10 seconds for it to override the programmed schedule.
If “Charge Until Full” is selected, and the vehicle is
plugged in after the start time of the schedule, the vehicle will start charging when it reaches the start time the next day. If you would like to begin charging immediately, and continue charging until the vehicle is fully charged, you can select the “Charge Now” option or use the double plug override option. NOTE:

Emergency 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 vehicle. 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 will shut the engine off in two seconds if an invalid key fob is used to start the engine. NOTE: A key which has not been programmed is also considered an invalid key, even if it is cut to fit the ignition switch lock cylinder for that vehicle. 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!
Always remove the Sentry Key from the vehicle
and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle unattended.
The Sentry Key Immobilizer system is not

SCHEDULED CABIN CONDITIONING (SCC)
This feature allows the driver to pre-condition (warm up or cool down) the passenger cabin based on a planned departure time. Also, all scheduled cabin conditioning will be powered by the vehicle’s high voltage battery working in conjunction with any EVSE connected to the vehicle. In order to conserve the vehicle’s high voltage battery power, the driver can choose between allowing the battery to be drained of power down to <1%, or to stop the SCC when the high voltage battery has been depleted to 25% State Of Charge (SOC). The battery percentages are displayed in the instrument cluster display. A maximum of three independent schedule event timers are available for use by the SCC feature and Scheduled Charging feature for charging the high voltage battery. The timers may be used in any combination for SCC and Scheduled Charging, but only three total timers are available. The SCC event times are used to wake up the vehicle so that the Climate Control system can condition the passenger cabin prior to the scheduled departure time. Based on vehicle operating conditions, ambient

temperature, and the next programmed departure time, the vehicle will determine when to begin cabin conditioning. Cabin conditioning can begin up to 30 minutes prior to the scheduled departure time,provided the stated high voltage battery conditions are met.
The SCC will continue for a maximum of 15 minutes after the scheduled departure time.
Once a scheduled event has been created, it can be applied to one or more days of the week. The scheduled event can also be set to occur only during the current week, or repeat every week until the feature is turned off or the event is changed.
All of the following conditions must be met before the vehicle will initiate a scheduled SCC event:
Gear selector in PARK Doors Closed Hood Closed Liftgate Closed Hazard switch off 12 Volt battery at an acceptable charge level Key fob not located inside the vehicle Ignition in the OFF position
Scheduling An SCC Event:
1. Select the Electric Vehicle App under the Vehicle menu.

2. Select “Schedules”.
Schedules Screen 3. Select the schedule to be set (1,2, or 3) by
pressing the appropriate arrow on the right side of the touchscreen. 4. Choose “Climate Schedule”.
Select Climate Schedule 5. Select if SCC should stop when the high voltage
battery drops to 25% or lower. 6. Set the Departure Time: Hours, Minutes, and
AM/PM.

Set Climate Schedule
7. Select the days that this SCC event will occur. The “Repeat” indicator illuminates to indicate that SCC will occur every week on the selected day(s), at the selected time. If you uncheck the “Repeat” option, all the days of the week will be grayed out and the vehicle will perform only one SCC event, which will occur at the next available time that matches the SCC event time (regardless of what day it was originally set to occur before “Repeat” was unchecked).
8. To schedule another SCC event, press the X and repeat these steps.
OPERATING TIPS
Refer to the chart at the end of this section for suggested control settings for various weather conditions.
Summer Operation
The vehicle cooling system must be protected with a high-quality antifreeze coolant to provide proper corrosion protection and to protect against vehicle overheating. OAT coolant (conforming to MS.90032) is recommended.

Winter Operation
To ensure the best possible heater and defroster performance, make sure the vehicle cooling system is functioning properly and the proper amount, type, and concentration of coolant is used. Use of the Air Recirculation mode during Winter months is not
recommended, because it may cause window fogging. 2 Vacation/Storage
For information on maintaining the Climate Control
ð system when the vehicle is being stored for an
extended period of time, see page 202.
Window Fogging
Vehicle windows tend to fog on the inside in mild, rainy, and/or humid weather. To clear the windows, select Defrost or Mix mode and increase the front blower speed. Do not use the Recirculation mode without A/C for long periods, as fogging may occur.
Outside Air Intake
Make sure the air intake, located directly in front of the windshield, is free of obstructions, such as leaves. Leaves collected in the air intake may reduce airflow, and if they enter the air distribution box, they could plug the water drains. In Winter months, make sure the air intake is clear of ice, slush, and snow.
Cabin Air Filter
The Climate Control system filters out dust and pollen from the air. Contact an authorized dealer to service your cabin air filter, and to have it replaced when needed.
