EV cruising range
E00205100025
l
Even if the charge level is the same, the
EV cruising range may vary depending
on driving conditions. Since driving at
high speed or climbing on a hill requires
higher consumption of the drive battery
than usual, the EV cruising range is
shortened.
l
Since the air conditioning (cooling or
heating) consumes power of the drive
battery, its operation results in a shorter
EV cruising range. Maintain an appro-
priate temperature.
l
Put the selector lever to “B” (BRAKE)
position according to the road condition.
To charge the drive battery with appro-
priate use of the regenerative brake, it
can be increased the EV cruising range.
Acoustic Vehicle Alerting
System (AVAS)
E00205200042
The Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System
(AVAS) is a device that uses sound to alert
pedestrians of the presence of the vehicle.
The system operates when the vehicle speed
is about 35 km/h (22 mph) or less and the en-
gine is not running.
Refer to “Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System
(AVAS)” on page 7-23.
WARNING
l
Even if the Acoustic Vehicle Alerting Sys-
tem (AVAS) sounds, pay special attention
to pedestrians.
Pedestrians may not notice the oncoming
vehicle, which may cause an accident re-
sulting in serious personal injury or
death.

A crash or impact significant enough to re-
quire an emergency response for convention-
al vehicles would also require the same re-
sponse for Outlander PHEV.

to avoid severe burns and electrical shock
that may result in serious injury or death.

If your vehicle is drivable, pull your vehi-
cle off the road to a safe, nearby location
