Compass
The vehicle has a compass display
in the instrument cluster above the
speedometer. The compass
receives its heading and other
information from the Global
Positioning System (GPS) antenna
and vehicle speed information.
The compass system has automatic
calibration and zone adjustment
features.
Avoid covering the GPS antenna for
long periods of time with objects
that may interfere with the antenna's
ability to receive a satellite signal.
The compass system is designed to
operate for a certain number of
miles or degrees of turn before
needing a signal from the GPS
satellites. The compass system will
automatically determine when a
GPS signal is restored and provide
a heading.

Battery Gauge (High
Voltage)
Enhanced Battery Gauge
This displays the high voltage
battery state of charge. The value in
the center is an estimate of how far
the vehicle can be driven on the
remaining charge based on driving
habits and conditions learned over
several days.
The Max and Min values above and
below the display indicate the
longest and shortest possible range
as estimated from current vehicle
conditions and climate settings. The mileage estimate and Max and
Min numbers are affected by climate
control system usage. Estimated
range may increase or decrease
based on changes in climate control
energy consumption.
A trend bar on the far left estimates
how recent driving habits,
conditions, and climate settings are
affecting the range prediction.
When the high voltage battery state
of charge is very low, the estimated
range value in the center will
change to Low. Max and Min ranges
will no longer be displayed.
Additional alerts may display and a
sound may also be heard at low
state of charge.

center of the gauge.
. Enhanced layout: The outer ring
of the speedometer turns yellow.
Power Indicator Gauge
The power indicator gauge is on the
right side of the display in the
Enhanced layout.
This gauge displays the
instantaneous charge and discharge
power flowing either into or out of
the high voltage battery. Maximum
discharge power is available when
the high voltage battery is fully
charged. During normal operation, a
slight reduction in discharge power
may occur as the high voltage
battery state of charge decreases.
The power indicator gauge value
shows the instantaneous power
used by the battery.
Regenerative Braking
When regenerative braking is active,
the regen battery icon with arrows
appears green. The power indicator
gauge value shows the amount of
instantaneous power being
regenerated.
Regenerative Power Limited
Regenerative power may be limited
when the high voltage battery is
near full charge or cold. The regen
battery icon will appear gray when limited, and a horizontal bar may
display on the gauge, at the level of
the vehicle’
s maximum regenerative
braking power.
