•ECO (Green zone): Normal-efficiency range
•POWER (Grey zone): Low-efficiency range
B EV Mode — Illuminates when the electric motor is powering the vehicle.
C Ready — Illuminates when the hybrid system is operational. Even if the

D State of Charge (SOC) — Displays the hybrid battery charge status.
Hybrid/Plug-In Hybrid Modes
To change the Plug-In Hybrid Mode, press the EV/HEV button E (PHEV only);
switch between Electric (EV ) mode and Hybrid (HEV ) mode each time the
button is pressed. The LCD on the Instrument Cluster will display the following
messages:
•EV Electric Mode - Charge Depleting: The high-voltage
(hybrid) battery is being used to drive the vehicle.
•HEV Hybrid mode - Charge Sustaining: The high-voltage (hybrid)
battery and gasoline engine are being used to drive the vehicle.
REMINDER: Avoid starting or driving the vehicle when the fuel tank is empty. As the engine will be incapable of charging the high-voltage hybrid battery, the battery will lose its charge and may be damaged.
