80 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL
Speed Warning — If Equipped
Push and release the
up or down arrow button
until Speed Warning is highlighted in the instrument
cluster display. Push and release the
OK button to enter
Speed Warning. Use the
up or down arrow button
to turn the Speed Warning ON or OFF, then push and
release the
OK button to confirm the selection. If the ON
status is selected, use the
up or down arrow
button to set the desired speed, then push the
OK button
to set the speed for the Speed Warning. A Speed Warning
telltale will illuminate in the instrument cluster, with a
number matching the set speed, with a pop-up message
to inform the driver that the Speed Warning has been set
to the desired speed. Each time the set speed is
exceeded, a single chime will sound and a pop-up warning
message will display. If the set speed is exceeded more
than 2 mph (3 km/h), a continuous chime will sound for
up to 10 seconds, or until the speed is no longer
exceeded. The telltale in the instrument cluster will also
change from white to yellow, and a pop-up warning
message will pop-up on the instrument cluster display.
NOTE:
Speed Warning is unavailable while KeySense is in use.

ODE MESSAGE — ELECTRICAL LOAD

EDUCTION ACTIONS — IF EQUIPPED
This vehicle is equipped with an Intelligent Battery Sensor
(IBS) to perform additional monitoring of the electrical
system and status of the vehicle battery.
In cases when the IBS detects charging system failure, or
the 12 Volt 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 12 Volt
electrical loads. Load reduction will be functional when
the vehicle propulsion system is active.
The vehicle may not be running depending on the High
Voltage (HV) battery State Of Charge (SOC) or
temperature. 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 12 Volt load reduction is activated, the message
“Battery Saver On” or “Battery Saver Mode” will appear in
the instrument cluster display.
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 reduc-
tion. 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
Ú page 81.
The electrical loads that may be switched off (if equipped),
and vehicle functions which can be effected 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 charging system.
The charging system is still functioning properly.
Turning on all possible vehicle electrical loads (e.g.
HVAC to max settings, exterior and interior lights, over-
loaded power outlets +12 Volts, 150W, USB ports)
during certain driving conditions (city driving, towing,
frequent stopping).
Installing options like additional lights, upfitter elec-
trical accessories, audio systems, alarms and similar
devices.
Unusual driving cycles (short trips separated by long
parking periods).
The vehicle was parked for an extended period of time
(weeks, months).
