CTIONS F QUIPPED
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 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.
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
page 75.
The following are 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
□
150W Power Inverter System
□
Audio and Telematics System

the following conditions:
EDUCTION
□
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,
overloaded power outlets +12 Volts, 150W, USB
ports) during certain driving conditions (city driving,
towing, frequent stopping).
□
Installing options like additional lights, upfitter
electrical accessories, audio systems, alarms and
similar devices.
□
Unusual driving cycles (short trips separated by long
parking periods).
