80 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL
Speed Warning — If Equipped
Push and release the up or down arrow button
until the Speed Warning Menu icon/title is
displayed in the instrument cluster display.
Push and release OK to enter speed warning.
Use the up or down arrow button to select a
desired speed, then push and release OK to set
the speed. The white passive speed limiter tell-
tale will light up with a notification text message
(Speed Warning Set to XX), followed by the
selected unit. When the set speed is exceeded,
an audible chime will sound for up to 10
seconds or until the speed is no longer
exceeded. The white passive speed limiter tell-
tale will turn yellow and will flash, and a pop up
message of “Speed Warning Exceeded” will
display.
NOTE:
You can turn the Speed Warning off by using the
up or down arrows to scroll through speed list
and select OFF at the bottom of the list.
Battery Saver On/Battery Saver Mode
Message — Electrical Load Reduction
Actions — If Equipped
This vehicle is equipped with an Intelligent
Battery Sensor (IBS) to perform additional moni-
toring of the electrical system and status of the
vehicle battery.
In cases when the IBS detects charging system
failure, or the vehicle battery conditions are
deteriorating, electrical load reduction actions
will take place to extend the driving time and
distance of the vehicle. This is done by reducing
power to or turning off non-essential electrical
loads.
Load reduction is only active when the engine is
running. It will display a message if there is a
risk of battery depletion to the point where the
vehicle may stall due to lack of electrical supply,
or will not restart after the current drive cycle.
When load reduction is activated, the message
“Battery Saver On” or “Battery Saver Mode” will
appear in the instrument cluster.
These messages indicate the vehicle battery
has a low state of charge and continues to lose
electrical charge at a rate that the charging
system cannot sustain.
NOTE:
The charging system is independent from
load reduction. The charging system
performs a diagnostic on the charging
system continuously.
If the Battery Charge Warning Light is on it
may indicate a problem with the charging
system. Refer to “Battery Charge Warning
Light” in “Getting To Know Your Instrument
Panel” for further information.
The electrical loads that may be switched off (if
equipped), and vehicle functions which can be
affected by load reduction:
Heated Seat/Vented Seats/Heated Wheel
Heated/Cooled Cup Holders — If Equipped
Rear Defroster And Heated Mirrors
HVAC System
115 Volts AC Power Inverter System
Audio and Telematics System
Loss of the battery charge may indicate one or
more of the following conditions:
The charging system cannot deliver enough
electrical power to the vehicle system
because the electrical loads are larger than
the capability of the charging system. The
charging system is still functioning properly.
