Odometer
Located in the bottom of the information
display Registers the accumulated
distance your vehicle has traveled.
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.

•
Tach rpm x 1000 — When the gasoline
engine is running, the tachometer
gauge displays the engine speed in
revolutions per minute (RPM). When
your vehicle is operating on battery
power only with the engine off, EV
displays and the tachometer is greyed
out.
Note: The trip data, and average fuel
economy cannot be reset in MyView.
Energy Use (Energi only)
Energy Use provides an estimated
available electric range, a energy use gauge
and a climate power gauge in addition to
fuel level and battery display. When you
select EV Now operation this screen will
automatically be shown. You can press
OK to enable the engine when viewing this
screen during EV Now operation. See
Hybrid Electric Vehicle
(page 132).
Electric Range:
Electric range is the estimated distance
you can travel in Plug-in Power Mode with
the engine off. This is based on the amount
of energy available in the high voltage
battery and your average energy usage
while driving.
The amount of energy in the battery refers
to the energy gained from charging the
battery while plugged in.
Energy usage is affected by:
• Mild or aggressive acceleration or
braking.
• Your vehicle speed.
• Your use of accessories such as climate
control.
• The ambient temperature and other
weather conditions.
• City or highway driving.
• Road grades. Note:
It is normal for your electric range
estimate to vary from charge to charge due
to changes in average energy usage.
Energy Use Gauge:
Your current energy use is the white line
that moves up and down in the gauge. A
higher line means you are using more
energy (lower is better). Your energy use
includes input from the accelerator pedal
as well as the accessories, such as climate
control.
When operating in EV Now a blue cup
shape is shown around the gauge. This
represents the maximum energy usage you
can maintain in order to achieve the
estimated electric range when EV Now
mode began. Keep your current energy use
mostly within the cup while driving and you
should achieve your electric range
estimate.
Climate Power Gauge:
Indicates high voltage electrical power
demand from you vehicle ’s high voltage
climate control components including the
electric A/C compressor and the electric
heater. These components use power but
do not contribute to propelling your vehicle.
The gauge displays power demand in
kilowatts (kW).
Trip 1 & 2
Provides trip odometer, trip average fuel
economy and trip timer.
Distance traveled on battery power only
with the engine off is shown in blue next
to total trip distance.
For Energi vehicles total plug-in electricity
used in kilowatt hours (kWh) is shown in
blue next to trip average fuel economy.

Empty reserve is the amount of fuel
remaining in the tank after the fuel gauge
indicates empty. Do not rely on this fuel for
driving. The usable capacity of the fuel
tank is the amount of fuel that can be put
into the tank after the gauge indicates
empty. The advertised capacity is the total
fuel tank size – it is the combined usable
capacity plus the empty reserve.
Filling the Tank
For consistent results when filling the fuel
tank:
•
Turn the ignition off before fueling; an
inaccurate reading results if the engine
is left running.
• Use the same fill rate
(low-medium-high) each time the tank
is filled.
• Allow no more than two automatic
click-offs when filling.
Results are most accurate when the filling
method is consistent.
Calculating Fuel Economy
Do not measure fuel economy during the
first 1000 miles (1600 kilometers) of
driving (this is your engine ’s break-in
period); a more accurate measurement is
obtained after 2000 miles - 3000 miles
(3200 kilometers - 4800 kilometers). Also,
fuel expense, frequency of fill ups or fuel
gauge readings are not accurate ways to
measure fuel economy.
1. Fill the fuel tank completely and record
the initial odometer reading.
2. Each time you fill the tank, record the amount of fuel added.
3. After at least three to five tank fill ups, fill the fuel tank and record the current
odometer reading.
4. Subtract your initial odometer reading from the current odometer reading. 5. Calculate fuel economy by dividing
miles traveled by gallons used (For
Metric: Multiply liters used by 100, then
divide by kilometers traveled).
Keep a record for at least one month and
record the type of driving (city or highway).
This provides an accurate estimate of the
vehicle ’s fuel economy under current
driving conditions. Additionally, keeping
records during summer and winter show
how temperature impacts fuel economy.
In general, lower temperatures mean lower
fuel economy.
EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM WARNINGS
Do not park, idle, or drive your vehicle
in dry grass or other dry ground cover.
The emission system heats up the
engine compartment and exhaust system,
which can start a fire. Exhaust leaks may result in entry of
harmful and potentially lethal fumes
into the passenger compartment. If
you smell exhaust fumes inside your
vehicle, have your dealer inspect your
vehicle immediately. Do not drive if you
smell exhaust fumes. Your vehicle is equipped with various
emission control components and a
catalytic converter that will enable your
vehicle to comply with applicable exhaust
emission standards.
To make sure that the catalytic converter
and other emission control components
continue to work properly:
•
Use only the specified fuel listed.
• Avoid running out of fuel.
