150 Driving and Operating
Use the Remote Start Climate Control
feature to heat or cool the interior while the
vehicle is plugged in to use electricity from
the electrical socket instead of using energy
from the battery. See Remote Start 0 12.
In hot weather, avoid parking in direct
sunlight. Use sunshades inside the vehicle.
Keep the inside of the windows clean to
reduce misting. Turn off the front demister
and rear demister when they are not
needed.
Avoid driving with the windows open at
highway speeds.
Use the Battery Gauge on the Instrument
Cluster to view the effect of climate control
settings on your estimated range. See
Battery Gauge (High Voltage) 0 89.
Outside Temperature
On colder days, it is best to plug in the
vehicle overnight, and then remote start the
vehicle.
Allow the vehicle to warm up for
20 minutes before driving.
Vehicle Charging/Maintenance
Charging
Keep the vehicle plugged in, even when fully
charged, to keep the battery temperature
ready for the next drive. This is important
when outside temperatures are extremely
hot or cold.
If possible, use a level 2 (240 volt) high
power charge station for best results. This
allows the interior of the vehicle and high
voltage battery to warm to optimal
temperature.
Maintenance
Always keep the tyres properly inflated and
the vehicle properly aligned.
Carrying excess loads in the vehicle affects
efficiency and range. Avoid carrying more
than is needed.
Avoid unnecessary use of electrical
accessories. Power used for functions other
than propelling the vehicle will reduce the
available range.
Using a rooftop carrier will reduce efficiency
due to additional weight and drag.
Distracted Driving
Distraction comes in many forms and can
take your focus from the task of driving.
Exercise good judgement and do not let
other activities divert your attention away
from the road. Many local governments
have enacted laws regarding driver
distraction. Become familiar with the local
laws in your area.
To avoid distracted driving, keep your eyes
on the road, keep your hands on the
steering wheel, and focus your attention on
driving.
.
Do not use a mobile phone in demanding
driving situations. Use a hands-free
method to place or receive necessary
phone calls.
.
Watch the road. Do not read, take notes,
or look up information on mobile phones
or other electronic devices.
.
Designate a front seat passenger to
handle potential distractions.
.
Become familiar with vehicle features
before driving, such as programming
favourite radio stations and adjusting
climate control and seat settings. Program
all trip information into any navigation
device prior to driving.
