tHe battery gauge
During Plug-in Power Mode,
a full charge fill represents
the total amount of energy
you can get from an external
charge (plugging your
vehicle in).
The electric range estimate
represents the present charge
level, your driving habits and
climate control use. When the level
reaches empty, your vehicle will
automatically enter Hybrid
Mode and the battery icon will
change to a simpler graphic.
silent key start
When you
switch on
the ignition,
your engine
may not
sound like
it has started because your hybrid
vehicle is equipped with silent
key start. This fuel-saving feature
allows your vehicle to be ready to
drive without requiring your gas
engine to be running. Look for the
‘ready to drive’ indicator light
in your instrument cluster. When
the light displays, your vehicle
has been successfully started
and is ready to drive.
