Starting the car
To start the car, a key needs to be inside the car.
Warning
Before starting:
- Fasten the seatbelt.
- Adjust the seat, steering wheel and mirrors.
- Make sure that the brake pedal can be fully depressed.
Make sure the key is inside the car.
Put the seatbelt on.
Depress the brake pedal.
Change gear to D or R.
The car is now in Drive mode.
Release the brake pedal.
If creep mode is activated, the car will drive slowly in the selected direction. If Hold (braking when stationary) is activated, the accelerator pedal must be depressed for the car to be able to drive in the selected direction.
If creep mode is deactivated, the car will not drive forwards.
Warning
- Never use more than one mat at a time in the driver area. Before driving, remove the original mat in the driver area if another type of floor mat shall be used. All types of mat must be attached securely in the floor's mounting points. Make sure that the brake pedal and accelerator pedal do not become trapped in the floor mat as this can involve a major risk to safety.
- Polestar's floor mats are specially designed for the car. They must be attached securely in the floor's mounting points and must not be at risk of being trapped under the pedals.
Important
The car cannot be started if the charging cable is still plugged-in. Pay attention that the charging cable is unplugged from the charging input socket before starting the car.
