The paddle shifter is used to adjust
the regenerative braking rate from 0
to 3 during decelerating or braking.
• Left side (
): Increases regener-
ative braking and deceleration.
• Right side (
):
Decreases
regenerative braking and decelera-
tion.
• Pull and hold the left side paddle
shifter to change to 0.
• Pull and hold the left side paddle
shifter to change to 3.
Information
The paddle shifter does not operate
when:
• Both Paddle shifters are pulled at
the same time.
• The Smart Cruise Control system is
activated.
• The vehicle is shifted to P (Park), R
(Reverse) and N (Neutral).
If the battery is fully charged when
descending down a long or steep
hill, the regenerative braking is
not working even though operat-
ing the paddle shifter. In this case,
depress the brake pedal to brake
the vehicle. This is normal and
does not indicate a problem with
your paddle shifter and brakes.
The selected regenerative braking
rate is displayed on the instrument
cluster.
What Does Regenerative
Braking Do?
It uses the electric motor when
decelerating or braking which trans-
forms vehicle motion (kinetic energy)
to electrical energy to charge the
high voltage batteries.
