HYBRID DISPLAYS
Power Gauge – When accelerating or driving, the gauge shows the amount of power
provided by the propulsion system to propel the vehicle. When coasting or braking, it
shows the amount of power provided by the regenerative braking system or the conven-
tional brakes to slow the vehicle. Operating the vehicle close to the zero power position
during acceleration and braking will result in higher efficiency.
Drive Cycle Info – This screen displays the distance traveled and average fuel economy
for the current trip. The screen also is shown when the vehicle is turned off, displaying
the information for the completed trip.
Efficiency Gauge – This gauge is a guide to driving in an efficient manner. Keeping the
indicator in the center of the gauge indicates higher efficiency.
Total Power – This display provides a
numeric representation of the total power
being used to propel or stop the vehicle.
It shows the power being provided by
the high-voltage battery or charging the
high-voltage battery as well as the power
provided by the engine.
EV Operation – The bar moves from left to
right as the driver requests more power
from the propulsion system. While in
electric vehicle (EV) mode, maintaining the bar in the green zone maximizes electric
operation.
Power Flow – This display indicates the current hybrid operating mode, energy flow
direction and the high-voltage battery charge level. The operating modes include Engine
Power, Battery Power, Hybrid Power, and Regen Power Recovery.
Consumption History – This screen displays the average fuel economy in 5-mile
increments over the last 50 miles.
See Instruments and Controls in your Owner’s Manual.
CLIMATE CONTROL SETTINGS
The climate control settings affect the efficiency of the vehicle. To maximize efficiency
in warm weather, operate the climate controls in the Automatic mode at the highest
comfortable temperature setting or turn off the air conditioning system when climate
conditions allow.
See Climate Controls in your Owner’s Manual.
