Checklist Spreadsheet for New P.Prime Delivery

I think we better get out of here bisco.

I had "my" ideas lined up, stuff like checking the tire pressures, the 12 volt, and so on. Then I started looking through the screen-grab of the Google list (did it disappear, btw??), most of the items I don't even know what they are.

 

Maybe try being in front of the computer instead of being on it ???

 

it's a lap bottom.

 

The spreadsheet will not display in Chrome.
Using IE 11 or MS Edge, it says "content cannot be displayed in frame"
when i set content to its own window, it still asks for permission, which I've logged in with my Google ID and asked for.

 

Yes, but a little blurry on my 55" screen. But, then again, I do need glasses.

 

it's all there now!

 

I can see it now. To view it better, right click, view image, then zoom in little. Not too much or it gets blurry.

While taking delivery...

Have dealer turn off reverse beep .. and any other dealer changeable settings.
Have dealer fully charge the battery.

 

Yeah it has to be .xlsx, not .xls (older version files). No trouble downloading, that's the way to go.

I'll leave you and the techies to it though, for the most part don't even know what you're talking about. If you want something down-to-earth:

Stipulate no dealership license plate frames, or decals. The former are no big deal to remove, the latter are a pain though.

 

Can read download xlsx file just fine on ipad.

Very nice resource.

Considering trouble with safety connect, might want to add "Verify SOS button connects to operator" - having a green light may not be good enough.

 

(1) As someone else suggested on another thread here, it's probably a better idea NOT to put your exact real address in the NAVI, but rather an address down the block, or a block or so away, just in case someone manages to hack/break in/rip off your car. Better not to have your exact house number in the NAVI that a thief could easily see (and assume you wouldn't be at home, if, say, your car was ripped off at a shopping mall). After all, once you're close to home, you'll know how to get home the last 30 seconds on your own, so input a "close by" address, but maybe not your real one.

(2) Have the dealer take off all the stickers on the windows -- not just the big ones, but all the little ones as well (XM radio, country of origin, etc). I actually went back to a local dealer (twice) to have some removed, as the dealer where I bought mine from only took off the large stickers, and left the small ones on. I find them annoying (would just rather have nice, clear windows) so went back to the dealer to have all the stickers taken off. Naturally when your plates come, you'll want to take off the dealer frames and make it look nice and uncluttered.

(3) Don't forget to immediately look up and fill out the State rebate forms if your state offers a rebate.

(4) Sit in the car in your garage and get used to the audio and similar functions. For instance, for audio, holding down the "next track" arrow for a second or two on the 7" screen (and I assume on the 11.6 as well) will skip within the track... this is a common function, but I didn't realize until today that doing so from the steering wheel right-arrow button works the same way (on my old Honda, the steering wheel button would only skip to the next track... holding it down would just skip from track to track, instead of WITHIN the track). Nice, because I constantly like to skip "brought to you by" messages and such from podcasts, you can do it from the steering wheel. So sit down somewhere and figure out how everything works. Better to do it sitting down than while driving.

(4) Toot the horn to find out what pitches it is, just to know (mine's a major 2nd apart A-flat/B-flat).

(5) Enjoy the car!

 

What good does not putting your exact home address in the NAV do in a state, such as California, that requires that you keep your registration form in the car, to be shown to an officer if you are pulled over for some reason? The registration form has your home address on it. (This is a form that shows current registration, not your certificate of ownership.) Which is all rather silly, since before the officer gets out of his car, he has already pulled up your registration/insurance status/if the car has been reported stolen/ outstanding warrants on the owner/ etc on the computer display in his car/motorcycle, based on your license plate.

Similar to the issue for "old folks" who are on Medicare. To receive care, you have to present your Medicare card, which has your SSN on it, despite emphatic warnings from consumer groups, which say that you should never carry your SSN on your person.

 

At least for the Navigation: when entering your home adress, you could give it an inoccent sounding name, say "Uncle Fred the gun nut"?
