4. Fuel Gauge
The gauge shows the level of fuel in the
fuel tank when the ignition switch is in
the ON/RUN position.
 The fuel pump symbol points
to the side of the vehicle where
the fuel door is located.
5. Temperature Gauge
The temperature gauge shows engine
coolant temperature. Any reading within
the normal range indicates that the
engine cooling system is operating satis -
factorily.
The gauge can indicate a higher tempera -
ture when driving in hot weather or up
mountain grades. It should not be
allowed to exceed the upper limits of the
normal operating range. NOTE:
The hard telltales will illuminate for a bulb check
when the ignition is first cycled.
INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DISPLAY
Your vehicle is equipped with an instrument
cluster display, which offers useful information
to the driver. With the ignition in the OFF
position (and the key removed, for vehicles with
mechanical key), opening/closing of a door will
activate the display for viewing, and display the
total miles or kilometers in the odometer. Your
instrument cluster display is designed to display
important information about your vehicle’s
systems and features. Using a driver interactive
display located on the instrument panel, your
instrument cluster display can show you how
systems are working and give you warnings
when they are not. The steering wheel mounted
controls allow you to scroll through and enter
the main menus and submenus. You can
access the specific information you want and
make selections and adjustments.
WARNING!
Driving with a hot engine cooling system
could damage your vehicle. If the
temperature gauge reaches “H” pull over and
stop the vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air
conditioner turned off until the gauge drops
back into the normal range and is no longer
red. If the gauge remains on the “H”, turn the
engine off immediately and call an authorized
dealer for service.
WARNING!
A hot engine cooling system is dangerous.
You or others could be badly burned by steam
or boiling coolant. You may want to call an
authorized dealer for service if your vehicle
overheats. If you decide to look under the
hood yourself, refer to “Cooling System
Pressure Cap” in “Servicing And
Maintenance” for further information.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL129
Oil Life Reset
Your vehicle is equipped with an engine oil
change indicator system. The “Oil Change
Required” message will display for approxi-
mately five seconds after a single chime has
sounded, to indicate it is time to change the
engine oil. The engine oil change indicator
system is duty cycle based, which means the
engine oil change interval may fluctuate,
dependent upon your personal driving style.
Unless reset, this message will continue to
display each time the ignition is cycled to the
ON/RUN position.
To reset the oil change indicator after
performing the scheduled maintenance,
refer to the following procedure.
NOTE:
This procedure should only be performed after
scheduled maintenance is completed. Reset -
ting oil life other than when associated with a
scheduled maintenance may result in damage
due to not properly maintaining the engine oil. Oil Life Reset

1. Without pressing the brake pedal, push the
ENGINE START/STOP button and place the
ignition in the ON/RUN position (do not
start the vehicle.)

2. Push the OK button to enter the instrument
cluster display menu screen.
3. Push and release the down arrow button to

system did not reset. If necessary, repeat this
procedure.
Fuel And Oil Refresh Mode
Since it is possible to operate this vehicle for
extended periods of time without running the
gas engine, the fuel within the vehicle’s fuel
tank can become stale or the engine oil’s
lubricating properties can be reduced. To
prevent engine and/or fuel system damage due
to stale fuel, as well as, maintaining internal
engine lubrication, this vehicle is equipped with
a “Fuel and Oil Refresh Mode”.

The vehicle will automatically enter into the Fuel and
Oil Refresh Mode to minimize potential for stale
fuel, and to ensure lubrication of internal engine
components. When operating in this mode, the gas
engine will run to provide vehicle propulsion
(electric only operation is inhibited). A message will
be displayed in the instrument cluster whenever
Fuel and Oil Refresh Mode is active.

3

20_RU_OM_EN_US_t.book Page 129

130GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL

The vehicle will automatically exit the Fuel and Oil
Refresh Mode when conditions have been
satisfied. If the vehicle enters Fuel and Oil
Refresh Mode, due to fuel which has been in the
fuel tank for a long period of time (becoming stale
fuel), the engine will run whenever the vehicle is
operational (no electric only operation) until the
low fuel level warning is activated. It is also
possible to exit the Fuel and Oil Refresh Mode
sooner by adding a minimum of 4 gallons of new
fuel to the vehicle’s fuel tank.
NOTE:
If the vehicle enters Fuel and Oil Refresh Mode
to maintain engine lubrication, adding fuel will
not exit the mode sooner.
If the vehicle enters Fuel and Oil Refresh Mode
to maintain engine lubrication properties, the
engine may run for a period of up to 20 minutes
when fully warm whenever the vehicle is
operational (no electric only operation). If the
vehicle is shut down before conditions to exit
the refresh mode have been satisfied, the
engine may run for additional time on
subsequent trips.NOTE:
Frequent short trips at low ambient tempera
-
ture conditions are more likely to trigger the
lubrication based mode.

SAFETY TIPS
Transporting Passengers
NEVER TRANSPORT PASSENGERS IN THE
CARGO AREA.
Exhaust Gas The best protection against carbon monoxide
entry into the vehicle body is a properly
maintained engine exhaust system.
Whenever a change is noticed in the sound of
the exhaust system, when exhaust fumes can
be detected inside the vehicle, or when the
underside or rear of the vehicle is damaged,
have a competent mechanic inspect the
complete exhaust system and adjacent body
areas for broken, damaged, deteriorated, or
mispositioned parts. Open seams or loose
connections could permit exhaust fumes to
seep into the passenger compartment. In
addition, inspect the exhaust system each time
the vehicle is raised for lubrication or oil
change. Replace as required.
WARNING!
Do not leave children or animals inside
parked vehicles in hot weather. Interior
heat build-up may cause serious injury or
death.
It is extremely dangerous to ride in a cargo
area, inside or outside of a vehicle. In a
collision, people riding in these areas are
more likely to be seriously injured or killed.
Do not allow people to ride in any area of
your vehicle that is not equipped with seats
and seat belts.
Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat
and using a seat belt properly.
WARNING!
Exhaust gases can injure or kill. They contain
carbon monoxide (CO), which is colorless and
odorless. Breathing it can make you
unconscious and can eventually poison you.
To avoid breathing (CO), follow these safety
tips:
Do not run the engine in a closed garage or
in confined areas any longer than needed
to move your vehicle in or out of the area.
If you are required to drive with the trunk/
liftgate/rear doors open, make sure that all
windows are closed and the climate control
BLOWER switch is set at high speed. DO
NOT use the recirculation mode.
If it is necessary to sit in a parked vehicle
with the engine running, adjust your
heating or cooling controls to force outside
air into the vehicle. Set the blower at high
speed.
