Conditions for the Engine Starting

When vehicle power is ON, the engine may start independent of the vehicle being plugged

in or completely charged. Conditions that may cause the engine to start include:

Starting the Vehicle/ON

With the vehicle in Park or Neutral, press the

brake pedal and then press the POWER

button. A power ON audio cue will sound.

The vehicle will not shift out of Park and will

display a Charge Cord Connected message

if the vehicle is still plugged in.

When ON, the instrument cluster will display an

active battery or fuel gauge. The engine will start

only if needed.

Stopping the Vehicle/OFF

Shift to Park and then press the POWER

button. A power OFF audio cue will sound.

• Propulsion battery charge is low

• Propulsion battery temperature is hot or cold

• Cold ambient temperatures (depending on

engine-assisted heating options; see Vehicle

Personalization on page 11)

• Hood is open

• Engine and Fuel Maintenance Modes

(occur only if the engine has had

very limited operation over a long

period)

See Driving and Operating in your Owner Manual.

Seat and Steering Wheel Adjustment

Before driving, adjust the seat and steering wheel to a comfortable position.

Pull down the lever (A) to unlock the steering

wheel and adjust its position.

Lift the handle (B) under the right-front side of

the seat to slide the seat forward or rearward.

Ratchet the side lever (C) up or down to raise or

lower the seat.

Lift the rear lever (D) to adjust the seatback.

See Seats and Restraints in your Owner Manual.

ELECTRIC AND EXTENDED-RANGE MODES

Volt is an electric vehicle with extended range capability. Plug it in, let it charge overnight,

and it’s ready to run on a pure electric charge — gas- and tailpipe emissions-free. After that,

Volt keeps going, even if you can’t plug it in. Volt uses a range-extending gas engine that

produces enough energy to power it for hundreds of miles on a single tank of gas.

Electric Mode

In Electric Mode, the Volt will not use gasoline or produce tailpipe emissions unless in

extreme temperatures. During this primary mode, the Volt is powered by electrical energy

stored in its propulsion battery. It can operate in this mode until the battery is depleted to a

predetermined level.

Electric range is affected by colder outside temperatures. During colder months, the energy

needed to warm the vehicle’s cabin and propulsion battery can cause the vehicle’s electric

range to decline. See Driving for Better Energy Efciency in the Driving and Operating sec-

tion of your Owner Manual.

Extended-Range Mode

Once the electric charge is depleted, the range-extending gas engine will start to gener-

ate enough power to continue driving the vehicle. The engine ensures that you will not be

stranded by a depleted battery. The vehicle determines when the engine needs to run.

Engine speed will vary, depending on driving conditions, to optimize efciency. The engine

will not fully charge the propulsion battery. The vehicle must be plugged in to recharge.

Total Vehicle Range

Total vehicle range is based on the available combined electric and extended range. The

displayed electric and fuel ranges are projections based on past vehicle performance and

charge/fuel level. The displayed ranges will change based on driving style, outside tem-

perature and climate settings.

See Driving and Operating in your Owner Manual.

PARKING

Electric Parking Brake

To apply the parking brake, pull the

PARK

Parking Brake switch by the shift lever.

To release the parking brake, with the ignition in the ON or Accessory position, press

the brake pedal and press the

PARK

Parking Brake switch.

Driving and Operating in your Owner Manual.

Low Ground Clearance

The low ground clearance of the Volt aids in the

aerodynamic efciency of the vehicle. As a result,

the exible air deector under the front fascia

(bumper) may contact a parking block or curb if

the vehicle is parked too closely. Use care when

parking to avoid damage.

See Vehicle Care in your Owner Manual.

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER

a recongurable 7-inch LCD

screen that displays a variety

of operating information.

The Simple Conguration

displays basic information for

Electric Mode and Extended-

Range Mode operation.

The Enhanced Conguration

displays an additional driver

efciency gauge. (Not avail-

able in Mountain or Hold drive

mode.)

EFFICIENCY

Driving Style

Your driving style plays a large role in the efciency of the vehicle. Avoid rapid acceleration

or deceleration to help maximize energy efciency and range. Electric range is maximized at

50 mph and below; higher speeds use more energy and signicantly reduce range.

Press the CONFIG button to select

the Enhanced Conguration of the

instrument cluster to display the

efciency gauge.

While driving, try to keep the spinning ball

in the Efciency Gauge green and in the

center of the gauge. The ball will turn yel-

low and move up or down during inefcient

acceleration or aggressive braking.

Efciency Gauge

Driver-Selected Operating Modes

Climate Settings

Optimal efciency is achieved with the heat, air conditioning and fan turned off. If using the

climate mode settings, the most efcient operation is in the following order:

• FAN ONLY – electric cabin heating/cooling is off

• ECO – limits cabin heating/cooling to balance comfort with energy use

• COMFORT – provides the most cabin heating/cooling but uses the most energy

Use the heated seats (if equipped) to reduce the demand on the cabin heating system.

Heating the seats uses less energy than heating the vehicle interior.

See Driving and Operating in your Owner Manual.

Press the DRIVE MODE button on the

center stack to scroll through a menu of

operating modes when more perfor-

mance is needed. After three seconds,

the highlighted mode will become active.

Normal (Default): Use in normal driving

conditions for efcient operation; is active

each time the vehicle is started.

Sport: Use when more responsive accel-

eration is desired; may reduce efciency.

Mountain: Use when planning to drive in

mountainous terrain (long grades of 5% or

higher); reserves battery power to maintain

higher speeds on steep grades.

Hold: Use to preserve electric range for

later use. Range-extending operation will

engage.

EFFICIENCY
