Purpose

The purpose of this vehicle guide is to

provide operating instructions for the

unique features of the 2014/2015 1500

Extended Range Electric Truck and

explanations and instructions for the

appropriate usage of the vehicle and

Export Power.

Reading and understanding this manual

is very important in the safe operation

of the vehicle. Text marked DANGER

informs the driver of hazards that could

result in injury or death. Text marked

CAUTION refers to hazards that also

cause various levels of danger.

Supplement Use Danger, Warnings,

and Cautions

Warning messages found on vehicle

labels and in this manual describe

hazards and what to do to avoid or

reduce them.

WARNING: This indicates a

hazard that could result in

serious injury or death.

CAUTION: This indicates a

hazard that could result in

damage to components.

A circle with a slash through it

is a safety symbol. It means

do not, do not do this, or do

not let this happen. Notice:

This means there is

something that could result in

property or vehicle damage.

This would not be covered by

the vehicle’s warranty.

Information about your vehicle can be

located using the Table of Contents in

the front of this manual. Find your topic

of interest from the list, and refer to the

page number where it can be found.

An Information list by subject matter is

located in the Index at the rear of the

manual.

INITIAL DRIVE

INFORMATION

Electric Vehicle

Operating Modes

The Extended Range Electric Truck

has two modes for driving: Battery

Electric and Extended Range Electric.

In both modes, the vehicle is propelled

by the electric traction motor. The

traction motor uses electrical energy

from the high- voltage battery or

electrical energy generated from engine

operation to drive the wheels. The level

of performance is the same in either

mode.

Generator

Motor

Engine

Extended-Range Electric Mode

Extended Range

Electric Mode

When the battery charge falls to a

low level, approximately 20% SOC, the

vehicle switches to Extended Range

Electric Mode, and the gasoline-

powered internal combustion engine

will start automatically. The sound

of the engine may be heard during

operation. The engine is connected to

a generator which produces electricity

to propel the vehicle. The engine/

generator combination is known as an

APU.

Engine RPM does not correspond

directly to vehicle speed and

acceleration.

Battery Electric Mode

If the high voltage battery is fully

charged, the vehicle will operate using

the high voltage battery for an initial

period (as far as 40 miles). The engine

will not start until the battery reaches a

low level state of charge (SOC). During

this time, vehicle operation is quiet, no

fuel is used, and no tailpipe emissions

are produced.

6Driving and Operating6

OFF or operating

Regenerative Braking Mode

Battery

Traction Motor/

Transmission

Regenerative

(Regen) Braking

Regenerative (Regen) braking enables

the traction motor to operate as a

generator when coasting or braking.

This provides energy to recharge the

high voltage battery. Both the hydraulic

brakes and drive motor provide braking.

The braking system is computer

controlled and blends the regenerative

braking with the conventional hydraulic

disc brakes to meet any requirements

for deceleration. In the event of a

controller problem, as with all hydraulic

assist vehicles, the brake pedal maybe

harder to push, and the stopping

distance may be longer.

Vapor Canister Purge

If the truck has been used in battery

electric mode or used such that the

engine has not started for 5 days, the

engine will automatically come on

when the vehicle is powered up or

after the battery is at or below 80% to

purge the vapor canister. The battery

will not charge above 90% if a canister

purge is required. The vehicle must

be driven for approximately 15 to 30

minutes (depending on driving cycle)

to purge the canister. Once the canister

is purged, the vehicle will return to the

programmed operating cycle.

Engine May Start

Automatically

The truck inverter/controller module

monitors vehicle information to

determine when the engine must run.

When the vehicle is turned on, the

engine may start under any of the

following conditions:

• WARNING: Engine may start

if the battery falls below

20% any time the key is on.

• Engine must run to purge the

vapor canister.

HIGH VOLTAGE SAFETY

WARNING: The Extended

Range Electric Truck has a

standard 12V battery and a

high voltage battery. Only a

VIA Motors approved service

technician with the proper

knowledge and tools should

inspect, test, or replace the

high voltage battery.

See an authorized VIA dealer if the high

voltage battery needs service.

The 12 volt battery cables, located in

the engine compartment, are clearly

labeled. In emergency situations, ﬁrst

responders can cut those cables to

disable the high voltage battery system.

All high voltage wiring is clad in orange

conduit. Operators of the truck should

not touch, cut, or disconnect the orange

colored high voltage cables under any

circumstances The high voltage cables

should only be handled by trained

technicians.

High voltage in event

of an accident

Airbag deployment, rollover, or high

voltage isolation fault may shut o

power to the drivetrain.

The ﬁrst responder’s cut point can be found under the hood on the driver’s side.

GENERAL SAFETY

WARNINGS

WARNING: Always apply the

parking brake and place the

vehicle into park before

exiting. Never leave the

ignition in the On position

without engaging park.

WARNING: Do not park over

materials that can burn. This

includes papers, leaves and

dry grass.

WARNING: Other safety

warnings are included in the

Owner’s Manual provided

with the vehicle. This

supplement includes only

warnings that pertain to the

vehicle’s electrical power

system.

IN THE EVENT OF

AN ACCIDENT

If the high voltage battery becomes

disabled after a crash, the system must

be reactivated by an approved VIA

Motors technician. Contact your closest

Authorized VIA servicing dealer for

repair.

Battery Replacement

There are two batteries in the vehicle.

The standard 12-volt battery and a high

voltage battery. To replace the 12-volt

battery, contact your dealer for the

proper replacement. Only VIA trained

technicians with the proper equipment

and training should test, inspect, or

replace the high voltage battery.

Battery Service

Do not attempt to service high voltage

components on your vehicle. Serious

injury, death or vehicle damage

may result. Service and repair of

high voltage components should be

performed by VIA approved technicians

with the proper equipment and training.

WARNING: Do not leave the

vehicle in neutral unattended

while it is running

WARNING: Do not leave the

vehicle with the propulsion

system on.

If the shift lever is not fully in P(Park)

with the parking brake ﬁrmly set, the

vehicle could move suddenly causing

the vehicle to roll. Serious personal

injury and damage to components can

result.

If you must leave the vehicle with the

propulsion system on for any reason,

ﬁrst make sure the shift lever is in P

(Park) and the parking brake is ﬁrmly

set.

NOTES

Power kW Gauge

The Power gauge has a dual purpose.

It records power usage on the blue

scale and regenerative power (regen

charging) on the green scale. While

accelerating or driving, the blue scale

will show power usage. When coasting

or braking, the green scale will show

regen power recovery. Early braking and

light acceleration will result in the best

battery and fuel usage.

WARNING LIGHTS,

GAUGES, AND

INDICATORS

Generator kW Gauge

The Generator kW gauge shows

the output of the engine mounted

generator. It also shows high voltage

output during Export Power mode. The

output will vary based on demand.

System Overheating

This symbol indicates that a component in

the system (or multiple components) is/are

overheating/overheated. The performance

may be reduced automatically depending

on which component is overheating to

protect itself. If the issue persists, it may

be necessary to stop. This light comes

on when either the engine or one of the

electric power train components show an

over temp condition. It only comes on in

extreme conditions. The light also means

the vehicle should be serviced soon.

All other gauges operate as described in the owner’s manual.

Malfunction Indicator

The malfunction indicator lamp

illuminates (amber) when the truck is

placed in ON/RUN, as a bulb check to

show it is working. If it does not, have

the truck serviced by your VIA Motors

service provider. If the malfunction

indicator lamp illuminates for more

than 15 seconds on startup or while the

engine is running, this indicates that the

OBD II system has detected a problem,

and diagnosis and service might be

required.
