Battery Saver On/Battery Saver Mode Message —

Electrical Load Reduction 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 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

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.

When load reduction is activated, the message "Battery

Saver On" or "Battery Saver Mode" will appear in the

Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) or Driver

Information Display (DID).

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.
