GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

Disposal of the High Voltage Battery

WARNING!

Your vehicle’s high voltage battery is designed to last

the life of your vehicle. See an authorized dealer for

information on the disposal of the battery if it should

require replacement.

HIGH VOLTAGE BATTERY

Your vehicle is equipped with a Lithium-ion high voltage

battery that is used to power the electric powertrain

systems and the 12 volt vehicle electrical system.

● Never try to remove the HVIL device. The

HVIL device is used when your vehicle requires

service by a qualified technician at an authorized

dealership. Failure to follow this warning can result

in electrical shock, toxic emissions, fire, and other

hazards which can cause death or serious injury

including severe burns, respiratory injuries, and

blindness.

WARNING!

The high voltage battery is located under the vehicle.

The high voltage battery is maintenance free and

designed to last for the life of the vehicle.

Your vehicle contains a sealed Lithium-ion high

voltage battery. If the battery is disposed of

improperly, there is a risk of electrical shock and toxic

emissions which can cause severe burns, respiratory

injuries, fires, and other hazards resulting in serious

injury or death.

Lithium-ion batteries provide the following benefits:

● The high voltage battery and battery case have

no parts that you or an unqualified technician

can service. Under no circumstances should you

or an unqualified technician open, disassemble,

penetrate, or tamper with the high voltage battery,

battery case, their cables, or connectors. Damage

to these components can result in electrical

shock, toxic emissions, fire, and other hazards

which can cause death or serious injury including

severe burns, respiratory injuries, and blindness.

You should take the vehicle to an authorized

dealership for any service or maintenance on

these high voltage components.

● Lithium-ion batteries are much lighter than other

types of rechargeable batteries of the same size.

● Lithium-ion batteries hold their charge; they only lose

approximately 3 percent of their charge per month.

General Information

The vehicle is also equipped with a Battery

Management System that is designed to:

● Lithium-ion batteries have no memory, which means

that you do not have to completely discharge them

before recharging, as with some other batteries.

● Ensure safe operation

● Maximize driving range

● Lithium-ion batteries can be recharged and

discharged thousands of times.

● Maximize the life expectancy of the high voltage

battery

HVIL (High Voltage InterLock) Device Disconnect

● The high voltage system can be hot during and

after starting, and when the vehicle is shut off or

charging. Be careful of both the high voltage and

the high temperature. Failure to do so can result in

severe burns.

The HVIL device disconnect should be done using the

high voltage interlock loop connector located in the rear

luggage box. If your vehicle requires service, see an

authorized dealer.

NOTE:

● During vehicle start up and shut down, a clicking

noise may be heard from within the vehicle. When

the ignition device is moved to ON/RUN, the high

voltage battery contactors inside the battery are

closed to make the stored electricity inside available

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 13

for vehicle use. The clicking noise observed is the

sound of these contactors as they open and close

and is normal operation for your 500e.

If the battery temperature is below -22°F (-30°C), or

131°F (55°C) or above, the vehicle will NOT start:

Since the fluid leak may be Lithium Manganate

from the Lithium-ion battery, never touch the fluid

leak inside or outside of the vehicle. If the fluid

contacts your skin or eyes, wash these areas

immediately with a large amount of water and

obtain immediate medical attention to help avoid

serious injury.

● If the vehicle is plugged in at these battery

temperatures, the instrument cluster will display

the message “Please Leave Key In RUN — Battery

Conditioning Needed”.

● The operating temperature range of the high voltage

battery is -22 °F to 122 °F (-30 °C to 50 °C). If it

is attempted to operate the vehicle with the battery

outside of these temperature extremes it will not

function.

● If the vehicle is not plugged in at these battery

temperatures, the “Plug In Vehicle To Condition

Battery” will be shown in the instrument cluster

display.

● The Pedestrian Acoustic Warning system will emit

a noise from when a gear other than P (Park) is

engaged and remains active as long as the car is

travelling at a speed of 15 mph (25 km/h). For more

● If a fire occurs inside your vehicle, leave the

vehicle as soon as possible. Only use a type ABC,

BC, or C fire extinguisher that is meant for use on

electrical fires. Using a small amount of water, or

the incorrect fire extinguisher can result in serious

injury or death from electrical shock.

additional vehicle loads the Portable Charging Cordset

(EVSE) has to support. The additional electrical loads

will extend the high voltage battery charging time.

The fault code list in the following table provides a

reference for the important faults that are detected by

the Portable Charging Cordset (EVSE). When a fault is

detected, the AC Power Indicator, the Fault Indicator,

or both the AC Power and Fault Indicators will flash

red. If only the AC Power Indicator is red, there is

a problem on the AC Power side of the unit. If only

the Fault Indicator is flashing red, there is a problem

internal to the unit or with the vehicle. If both the

AC Power and Fault Indicators are flashing red, an

over temperature condition is detected at either the

AC plug or within the Portable Charging Cordset (EVSE)

enclosure. Additional information about the faults is

provided by a fault code that is displayed on the two

green Charge Active Indicators. The fault code consists

of four digits, each with a value of 1 or 2. The value of

WARNING!

To avoid serious injury or death:

● Only devices designed for use in this type of outlet

should be inserted into any 12 Volt outlet.

● Do not touch with wet hands.

● Close the lid when not in use and while driving the

vehicle.

● If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an

electric shock and failure.

Center Console USB Port

NOTE:

Depending on vehicle configuration, the USB port may

be charge only or media file capable.

Power Outlet

CAUTION!

Power is available when the ignition switch is in the

ON/RUN position.

● Many accessories that can be plugged in draw

power from the vehicle's battery, even when not

in use (i.e., cellular phones, etc.). Eventually, if

plugged in long enough, the vehicle's battery

will discharge sufficiently to degrade battery life

and/or prevent the vehicle from moving.

CAUTION!

E^LECTRICALPOWER OUTLETS

● Do not exceed the maximum power of 160 Watts

(13 Amps) at 12 Volts. If the 160 Watts (13 Amps)

power rating is exceeded, the fuse protecting the

system will need to be replaced.

There is a standard 12 Volt (13 Amp) power outlet,

located in the center console storage compartment,

for added convenience. This power outlet can power

mobile phones, electronics and other low power

devices.

● Accessories that draw higher power (i.e., coolers,

vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.) will degrade the

battery even more quickly. Only use these

intermittently and with great caution.

● Power outlets are designed for accessory plugs

only. Do not insert any other object in the power

outlets as this will damage the outlet and blow the

fuse. Improper use of the power outlet can cause

damage not covered by your New Vehicle Limited

Warranty.

● After the use of high power draw accessories, or

long periods of the vehicle not being charged (with

accessories still plugged in), the vehicle will likely

need to be charged.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 51

LED Indicator Status:

● The phone’s protective case must be removed when

placed on the wireless charging pad.

WIRELESS CHARGING PAD

● No Light: Charging pad is idle or searching for a

device. Device may not be compatible with the Qi^®

standard.

● Most smartphones are equipped with software to

protect the device from overheating. When the

software is active, the rate of charge is slowed down

to protect the device.

● Blue Light: Device is detected and is charging.

● Red Light/Flashing: Internal error, or foreign object is

detected.

2

● Phones must always be placed on the wireless

charging pad within the outline shown on the pad

so that its charging parts connect with the charging

coils of the system. Movement of the phone during

charging may prevent or slow the rate of charge.

● Green Light: Device has completed battery charging

(if device is equipped to transmit this information).

Important Notes Regarding This Vehicle’s Wireless

Charging Pad:

● Having multiple applications open on the phone

while charging will reduce the charging efficiency,

and may even shut down an application that is

actively running (i.e. Apple CarPlay^®). This may also

cause the phone to overheat.

Wireless Charging Pad

● The presence of the Near-Field Communication

(NFC) function active on a smartphone could signal

malfunction anomalies.

Your vehicle is equipped with a 15W 3A Qi^®wireless

charging pad located below the center stack, within the

storage compartment. This charging pad is designed to

wirelessly charge your Qi^®enabled mobile phone. Qi^®is

a standard that allows wireless charging of your mobile

phone.

● The ignition must be in the ON/RUN position in order

for the phone to charge.

● Wireless chargers may implement certain methods

to prevent the phone from overheating during

charging such as slowing down the rate of charge.

In certain instances, the device may shut down for

a brief period of time (when the device reaches a

certain temperature). If this happens, it does not

mean there is a fault with the wireless charging pad.

This may just be a protective measure to prevent

damage to the phone.

● To avoid interference with the key fob search, the

wireless charging pad will stop charging when any

door or liftgate is opened, even if the engine is

running.

Your mobile phone must be designed for Qi^®wireless

charging. If the phone is not equipped with Qi^®wireless

charging functionality, an aftermarket sleeve or a

specialized back plate can be purchased from your

mobile phone provider or a local electronics retailer.

Please see your phone’s Owner’s Manual for further

information.

● Be sure to place the mobile device correctly (display

facing upward, and phone not covering the LED) on

the wireless charging pad.

● The use of multiple wireless functions at the same

time (wireless charging, Apple CarPlay^®, Android

Auto^™) could cause the device to overheat, resulting

in limitation of the functions or it turning off. In

this case, it is recommended to connect the system

using the USB port.

● If the phone moves on the pad causing the red light

to illuminate, the phone will have to be picked up

and placed back on the charging pad to resume

charging.

The wireless charging pad is equipped with an anti-slip

mat to hold your mobile phone in place, and an LED

indicator light.

● Wireless charging is not as fast as when the phone

is connected to a wired charger.

Place the device inside the prepared area delimited in

the mat as shown in the image. Incorrect positioning

will prevent the phone from charging.

52 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

● Do not place the key fob or any other type of metal/

magnetized object inside the mobile phone housing

or near the wireless charging pad.

● With a compatible device placed on the charging

pad, and the ignition is cycled to the OFF position,

a reminder message may appear on the instrument

cluster display to warn the driver.

CAUTION!

The key fob should not be placed on the charging pad

or within 6 inches (15 cm) of it. Doing so during the

charging of the smartphone could cause excessive

heat buildup and damage to the fob, but the wireless

charger has a protection system that interrupts the

charging when a foreign object is detected on the

pad. Placing the fob in close proximity of the charging

pad blocks the fob from being detected by the vehicle

and prevents the vehicle from starting.
