Gauges and Meters
Speedometer/Eco guide
The speedometer indicates the
speed of the vehicle and is calibratedin miles per hour (mph) and/or kilo-meters per hour (km/h).The speedometer is displayed differ-
ently according to the selected drive
mode in the Drive Mode IntegratedControl System.
For more information, refer to
"Drive Mode Integrated Control
System" in chapter 5.
Power/Charge gauge
The Power/Charge gauge shows the
energy consumption rate of the vehi-cle and the charge/discharge status
of the regenerative brakes.

It shows the energy consumption
rate of the vehicle when driving uphill
or accelerating. The more electricenergy is used, the higher the gauge
level.
It shows the charging status of the
battery when it is being charged by
the regenerative brakes (decelerat-
ing or driving on a downhill road).
The more electric energy is charged,
the lower the gauge level.

State of Charge (SOC) gauge forhigh voltage battery
The SOC gauge shows the charging
status of the high voltage battery.
"L (Low)" position on the indicator indicates that there is not enough
energy in the high voltage battery. "H(High)" position indicates that the
driving battery is fully charged.
When driving on highways or motor-
ways, make sure to check in advance
if the driving battery is chargedenough. When there are 4~5 gauge bars
(near the "L (Low)" area) on the SOC
gauge, the warning lamp turns ON to
alert you of the battery level.
When the warning lamp turns ON,
the vehicle can drive an additional30~40 km (18~25 miles) depending
on the driving speed, heater/air con-
ditioner, weather, driving style, and
other factors. Charging is required.When the high voltage battery
level is low, the power down warn-
ing illuminates and the power out-
put from the vehicle is limited.
Charge the battery immediately
since your vehicle may not driveuphill or skid on a slope with thewarning light ON.

This gauge indicates the current out-
side air temperatures by 1°C (1°F).
- Temperature range : -40°C ~ 60°C
(-40°F ~ 140°F)
The outside temperature on the dis-
play may not change immediately
like a general thermometer (to avoid
distracting the driver).
