GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 21
The charging schedule can also be over-
ridden if the 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 over-
ride 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.
IGNITION SWITCH
This feature allows the driver to operate the
ignition switch with the push of a button as long
as the key fob is in the passenger compartment.
NOTE:
This vehicle is equipped with an automatic shut-
down feature. If the vehicle is left in READY
state (vehicle running) with shifter in PARK for
30 minutes, it will automatically turn off the
vehicle. Notifications have been designed into
this feature to raise awareness of the timed
event. The instrument cluster display will
display “Ready To Drive” accompanied with
three audible chimes while exiting. The interior
warnings will occur regardless if the key fob
remains in the vehicle or is removed. The horn
will sound three times if the fob is removed from
the vehicle and the ignition state is in READY
mode. To restart the vehicle, follow the normal
process for starting your vehicle.
The START/STOP ignition button has four
operating positions; three of which are labeled
and will illuminate when in position. The three
positions are OFF, ACC, and ON/RUN. The
fourth position is START. During START, RUN will
illuminate.
NOTE:
Pushing the START/STOP ignition button may
only activate the Electric Propulsion System
and not start the vehicle’s engine (if running
the engine is not currently required by the
Hybrid system). READY will show in instru-
ment cluster display whenever the vehicle is
operating in EV (Electric Vehicle) mode and
the vehicle is stationary.
If the vehicle’s ignition is in either ACC or
RUN, the vehicle charge indicator may not
display a value greater than 99% state of
charge due to vehicle loads.
