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 mobile application while still plugged into a
charging source. This will allow 500e to use external
power to establish a comfortable cabin temperature be-
fore the drive and allow the battery to maintain the
temperature at significantly less 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
Driver Behavior Gauge
To help the driver extend the driving range of the high
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:
• Power
The needle will move into the Power range when under
acceleration.
• ECO
The needle will move into the ECO range when you are
maximizing the driving range of the high voltage battery.
