consider setting temperatures a few degrees higher or
lower during hot and cold days. If your 500e has been
soaking in hot or cold temperatures for an extended
period, it is recommended that the car be preconditioned
using the FIAT Access smartphone app while still
plugged into a charging source. This will allow 500e to
use external power to establish a comfortable cabin
temperature before the drive and allow the battery to
maintain the temperature at significantly lower energy
levels.
Additional tips:
Keep tires properly inflated
When practical, choose surface streets over the high-
way, and work to maintain a steady speed
Avoid carrying nonessential cargo
Be mindful of adding external accessories that may
increase aerodynamic drag
Perform all scheduled maintenance at recommended
intervals

voltage battery your vehicle is equipped with a Driver
Behavior Gauge. The Driver Behavior Gauge is located
on the right side of the instrument cluster and contains
three driving ranges:

The needle will move into the Power range when under
acceleration.
ECO
