STARTING AND DRIVING
REGEN MODE
WARNING: It is recommended that
you do not use SPORT mode on
surfaces covered in snow or ice as this
could adversely affect vehicle handling.
REGEN mode simulates the engine braking
you would experience on a traditional
vehicle when descending a hill, and
increases the amount of energy generated
through regenerative braking when the
brake pedal is not pressed.
REGEN mode has three different levels
which simulate different levels of engine
braking.
To select REGEN mode 1:
The vehicle defaults to REGEN mode 1. The
vehicle will experience little resistance and
the DIS will indicate REGEN 1 in the display.
To select REGEN mode 2:
Briefly pull and release the paddle to select
the next available REGEN mode.
To select REGEN mode 3:
Briefly pull and release the paddle again.
The vehicle will have an increased feeling of
drag while coasting and the DIS will
indicate REGEN 3 in the display.
The REGEN modes circle around from
REGEN 1, REGEN 2 and REGEN 3; pulling
and releasing the REGEN paddle will select
the next available REGEN mode in the
sequence.
Note: Holding the paddle does de-select
the REGEN 2 or REGEN 3 selection and go
back to REGEN 1.
