responds with the result of their
investigation by e-mail.

The navigation system map data may
contain inaccurate or incomplete
information due to the passage of time,
changing circumstances, sources used and
the nature of collecting comprehensive
geographic data, any of which may lead to
incorrect results. Inaccurate speed limit
information, turn restrictions and other
road attributes may affect the determined
route and associated guidance

Annual navigation map updates are
available for purchase through your
dealership. Depending on your purchase
agreement, you might be eligible for free
Map update. You can choose to download
the Map data update onto a USB, order a
USB, or use Wi-Fi to deliver automatic
updates. To update your Map data over
Wi-Fi, your vehicle must be connected to
a Wi-Fi access point. Map Data files are
large, so it is highly recommended to
perform the update when free Wi-Fi is
available otherwise high data rates may
apply. For USB updates, free map update
eligibility, and other details, contact

ELECTRIC VEHICLE

INFORMATION

(IF EQUIPPED)

Power Flow

E304437

The Power Flow information for
your plug-in hybrid vehicle is
available through the Home

screen or under Apps.

Vehicle Operational States

Power will flow to or from the front and
rear wheels depending on operational
state and drive conditions.

•

Idling: The vehicle is running and in Park
(P). The engine and, or the high voltage
battery are on.

•

Electric Driving: The vehicle is running
and in Drive (D) or Neutral (N). The
high voltage battery provides power to
the wheels.

•

Hybrid Driving: The vehicle is running
and in Drive (D) or Neutral (N). The
engine and the high voltage battery
provide power to the wheels.

•

Engine Driving: The vehicle is running
and in Drive (D) or Neutral (N). The

back to the high voltage battery.

•

Charging: The vehicle is plugged in and
the high voltage battery is being
charged.

Engine On Due To

The following conditions help to explain
why the engine is on, and what you can do
to allow all electric operation.

457

SYNC™ 3

(If Equipped)

•

Drive Power: The engine is on due to
accelerator pedal pressure or speed
control activation. Reduce pressure on
the accelerator pedal or switch off the
speed control to return to full electric
mode.

•

High Speed: The engine is on because
the vehicle speed exceeds the level for
full electric operation. Reduce the
speed to return to electric operation.

•

Heater Setting: The engine is on
because of the heater setting. Reduce
or turn off the heater setting to return
to electric operation.

•

Neutral Gear: The engine is on because
the vehicle is in Neutral (N). Shift out
of neutral gear to return to electric
operation.

•

Engine Cold: The engine is on because
it is cold. The vehicle returns to electric
operation once the engine is sufficiently
warm.

•

to provide increased powertrain
braking. This can occur when you turn
on the grade assist feature, when
speed control is on or when driving with
your foot off the accelerator pedal.
Turning off grade assist or speed
control may allow the vehicle to return
to electric operation.
