Switch the autowipers on by moving thewiper lever up to the first position.
Switch the autowipers off by moving thewiper lever down.
Use the rotary control to adjust thesensitivity of the autowipers. When youselect low sensitivity, the wipers willoperate when the sensor detects a largeamount of water on the windshield. Whenyou select high sensitivity, the wipers willoperate when the sensor detects a smallamount of water on the windshield.
The autowipers feature is active and readywhen the wiper lever is in the first positionand selected in the information display.You can change the autowipers feature tointermittent wipers through theinformation display. See GeneralInformation (page 92).
Note:Check your wiper function in theinformation display. See GeneralInformation (page 92). The autowipersfeature functions only when you select themenu choice in the information display andyou move the wiper lever up to the firstposition. The autowipers feature thenremains on in the information display menuuntil you change it to intermittent wipe.
Note:If you switch autolamps on inconjunction with autowipers, your low beamheadlamps turn on automatically when therain sensor activates the windshield wiperscontinuously. See General Information(page 92).
Keep the outside of the windshield clean.The rain sensor is very sensitive and thewipers may operate if dirt, mist or insectshit the windshield.
Wet or winter driving conditions with ice,snow or salty road mist can causeinconsistent and unexpected wiping orsmearing. In these conditions, you can dothe following to help keep your windshieldclear:
•Lower the sensitivity of the autowipersto reduce the amount of smearing.
•Switch to normal or high-speed wipeby moving the wiper lever up.
•Switch the autowipers off and switchintermittent mode on through theinformation display. See GeneralInformation (page 92).
•Switch the autowipers off by movingthe wiper lever down.
Note:Clean the windshield and wiperblades if they begin to leave streaks orsmears. If that does not resolve the issue,install new wiper blades. See Changingthe Wiper Blades (page 235).

Odometer
Located in the bottom of the informationdisplay. Registers the accumulateddistance your vehicle has traveled.
Battery Gauge:
For Energi vehicles, a large battery gaugeis provided when the vehicle operates inPlug-In Power Mode only. See Plug-InHybrid Vehicle Operation (page 137).The fill level indicates the amount ofenergy stored in the high voltage batterythat is available for Plug-in Power Mode.
A full fill represents the total amount ofenergy you can get from an external charge(plugging your vehicle in). When the fillreaches empty, your vehicle automaticallyenters Hybrid Mode and the large batterygauge will no longer be shown.
An optional small battery gauge is providedfor Hybrid vehicles and for Hybrid Modeonly in Energi vehicles. You can switch thisfeature on in the Settings menu underBattery Display. See General Information(page 92). The fill level, or State of Charge,indicates the amount of energy stored inthe high voltage battery as a percent oftotal energy capacity. The level increasesor decreases as the battery charges anddischarges during normal operation.

Regen Display:
A circular arrow symbol displays whenenergy is being recaptured through theregenerative braking system. You canswitch the Regen Display off in the Settingsmenu. See General Information (page92).
Fuel Gauge:
Note:The fuel gauge may vary slightlywhen your vehicle is moving or on a gradient.
Switch the ignition on. The fuel gauge willindicate approximately how much fuel isleft in the fuel tank. The arrow adjacent tothe fuel pump symbol indicates on whichside of your vehicle the fuel filler door islocated.
The needle should move toward F whenyou refuel your vehicle. If the needle pointsto E after adding fuel, this indicates yourvehicle needs service soon.
After refueling some variability in needleposition is normal:
•It may take a short time for the needleto reach F after leaving the gas station.This is normal and depends upon theslope of pavement at the gas station.
•The fuel amount dispensed into thetank is a little less or more than thegauge indicated. This is normal anddepends upon the slope of pavementat the gas station.
•If the gas station nozzle shuts offbefore the tank is full, try a differentgas pump nozzle.
Low Fuel Reminder
A low fuel reminder triggers when the fuelgauge needle is at 1/16th.
Variations:

Vehicle Range
Vehicle range indicates the estimateddistance your vehicle will travel with theenergy currently onboard. The range isdisplayed at the bottom of the screen withgasoline range shown in white and electricrange (Energi only) shown in blue.
•Gasoline Range: Is the estimateddistance to empty based on the fuelremaining in the tank.
•Electric Range: Is the estimateddistance you can travel in Plug-InPower Mode with the engine off. Thisrange is based on a calculationdetermined by the amount of energystored in the high voltage battery as aresult of charging while plugged in andthe energy being used while driving.
The amount of energy being used whiledriving is affected by:
•Mild or aggressive acceleration orbraking.
•Your vehicle speed.
•Your use of accessories such as climatecontrol.
•The ambient temperature and otherweather conditions.
•City or highway driving.
•Road grades.
Note:It is normal for vehicle rangeestimates to vary due to changes in averageenergy usage. This is why you will typicallysee different range estimates each time youfill up your fuel tank or fully charge yourbattery.
