switching the ignition on. DAYTIME RUNNING LAMPS (If
Equipped) WARNING
The daytime running lamps system
does not activate the tail lamps and
may not provide adequate lighting
during low visibility driving conditions. Also,
the autolamps switch position may not
activate the headlamps in all low visibility
conditions, such as daytime fog. Always
ensure that your headlamps are switched
to auto or on, as appropriate, during all low
visibility conditions. Failure to do so may
result in a collision. Type 1 - Conventional (Non-
Configurable)
When you switch the ignition to the on
position and the lighting control is in the
off, autolamps or parking lamp position,
the daytime running lamps will turn on
whenever the headlamps are off. They turn
off only when the headlamps are on.
Type 2 - Configurable
Note:
If this type is equipped, you are able
to switch the daytime running lamps on or
off using the information display controls.
See
Information Displays (page 88).
When the daytime running lamps are
switched on in the information display and
you switch the ignition to the on position
with the lighting control in the autolamps
position, the daytime running lamps turn
on whenever the headlamps are off.
The other lighting control switch positions
do not activate the daytime running lamps
and can be used to temporarily override
autolamp control.
When switched off in the information
display, the daytime running lamps are off
in all lighting control switch positions.

Battery Gauge:
Note: For Energi vehicles there are two
versions of the battery gauge. When your
vehicle is in hybrid mode, a simple battery
graphic displays your battery information.
When your vehicle is in plug-in power mode,
an enhanced battery graphic displays your
battery information.
The high voltage battery gauge provides
Charge Fill (State of Charge), Charge
Assist, Regen Active and Electric Range
(Energi only) information. Charge Fill (Hybrid Mode)
The fill level, or State of Charge indicates
the amount of energy stored in the high
voltage battery as a percent of total energy
capacity. The level will increase or
decrease as the battery charges and
discharges during normal operation.
Charge Fill (Energi Plug-in Power Mode)
The fill level indicates the amount of
energy stored in the high voltage battery
which is available for Plug-in Power Mode.
A full fill represents the total amount of
energy you can get from an external charge
(plugging your vehicle in). When the fill
reaches empty your vehicle will
automatically enter Hybrid Mode.

Charge Assist
The up and down arrows provide
information about the energy going into
and out of the high voltage battery. The up
arrow above the battery indicates battery
charging such as from regenerative braking.
The down arrow below the battery
indicates battery discharging to provide
power for propulsion or vehicle
accessories.
Regen Active
A circular arrow symbol appears in the
center of the battery gauge when energy
is being recaptured through the
regenerative braking system.
This feature can be switched on or off in
the information displays settings menu.
See General Information (page 88).
Fuel Gauge:
Note: The fuel gauge may vary slightly
when your vehicle is moving or on a gradient. Switch the ignition on. The fuel gauge will
indicate approximately how much fuel is
left in the fuel tank. The arrow adjacent to
the fuel pump symbol indicates on which
side of your vehicle the fuel filler door is
located.
The needle should move toward F when
you refuel your vehicle. If the needle points
to E after adding fuel, this indicates your
vehicle needs service soon.
After refueling some variability in needle
position is normal:
•
It may take a short time for the needle
to reach F after leaving the gas station.
This is normal and depends upon the
slope of pavement at the gas station.
• The fuel amount dispensed into the
tank is a little less or more than the
gauge indicated. This is normal and
depends upon the slope of pavement
at the gas station.
• If the gas station nozzle shuts off
before the tank is full, try a different
gas pump nozzle.
Low Fuel Reminder
A low fuel reminder triggers when the fuel
gauge needle is at 1/16th.
