Chevrolet VOLT Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico-
12163007) - 2019 - crc - 6/19/18
186 Driving and Operating
releasing the brake pedal.
If Extended Hill Start Assist is
selected, it will hold the vehicle for
five minutes unless the driver door
is opened and the driver seat belt is
unbuckled prior to releasing the
brake pedal. When EHSA is
deactivated after five minutes, or if it
is deactivated when the driver seat
belt is unlatched or the driver door is
opened, the Electric Parking Brake
will engage to prevent vehicle
movement.
Regenerative Braking
Some braking energy from the
moving vehicle is turned back into
electrical energy. This energy is
then stored back into the high
voltage battery system, increasing
energy efficiency.
The hydraulic disc brakes work with
the regenerative braking to ensure
effective braking, such as when a
high braking demand is requested.
The controller interprets the braking
request and uses regenerative
braking, conventional hydraulic
braking, or a combination of both as
necessary.
The brake controller applies the
hydraulic brakes using a pump. The
pump may be heard during some
braking, such as rapid applies. This
is normal.
See Warning Lights, Gauges, and
Indicators 0 108 and Driver
Information Center (DIC) 0 133.
If there is a controller problem, the
brake pedal may be harder to push
and the stopping distance may be
longer.
Regen on Demand
{
Warning
To help avoid personal injury and
vehicle damage, use caution
when driving in L (Low) or using
Regen on Demand in slippery
conditions. Wheel slip may occur
with increased regenerative
braking.
Regen on Demand allows increased
deceleration by pressing and
holding the steering wheel paddle.
