ELECTRIC VEHICLE FEATURES

The Auto Park feature automatically places the vehicle into PARK if there is any indication
that the driver may leave the vehicle while the drive mode indicator is in the D (DRIVE),
N (NEUTRAL) or R (REVERSE) modes.
Auto Park is enabled under the following conditions:
– READY mode (12 Volt ON and High Voltage ON).
– Vehicle speed is below 2 mph (3 km/h).
NOTE:
• Auto Park feature only occurs once per key cycle.
• Auto Park is disabled above 2 mph (3 km/h) and the drive mode range will be
maintained.
The instrument cluster will display an Auto Shift To Park message and chime once when
Auto Park action occurs.
Mode Of Operation With Key ON
Auto Park will be engaged when the drive mode is in DRIVE, NEUTRAL or REVERSE
and the following conditions are detected:
• Seat Belt is unlatched
• Brake pedal is released
• Driver's door is ajar
• Vehicle speed is below 2 mph (3 km/h)
Mode Of Operation With Key OFF
Auto Park will engage as you turn off the key while in gear/neutral and speed is less than
2 mph (3 km/h).
Audible Pedestrian Warning System
Your vehicle is equipped with an Audible Pedestrian Warning System. The Audible Pedes-
trian Warning System uses distinct sounds to alert pedestrians that your vehicle is ap-
proaching.
The audible warning system uses an in-car sound synthesizer with a speaker located in
the underhood compartment. The warning system is automatically activated when select-
ing D (DRIVE) or R (REVERSE).
In D (DRIVE) range, the system will remain active until the vehicle reaches a speed of
approximately 22 mph (35.5 km/h). At approximately 22 mph (35.5 km/h), the warning
system is deactivated and will automatically be active when the vehicle returns to approxi-
mately 20 mph (32 km/h).
