Right Information Display
Efficiency Leaves
Efficiency leaves indicate short term
driving efficiency. The more leaves and
vines that are displayed, the better your
fuel economy. Leaves and vines will
occasionally appear and disappear to
indicate a change in driving efficiency.
Note:
The efficiency leaves display can
be impacted by your use of brakes,
accelerator and accessories, as well as
environmental conditions such as hills and
weather.
Flowers
Flowers appear on the efficiency leaves
screen in addition to the leaves and vines.
The flowers indicate long term driving
efficiency. The more flowers that are
displayed, the more efficiently you have
driven. Once earned, the flowers will
remain unless reset. The flowers can be
reset through the information display. See
General Information (page 97).
Common Displays
Fuel Economy Displays:
Displays your average and instantaneous
fuel economy on most Display Mode
screens.
Note: You can reset your average fuel
economy by pressing and holding the
OK
button on the left hand steering wheel
controls. Average fuel economy cannot
be reset while on the MyView screen. •
Average Fuel Economy - is
continuously averaged since the last
reset. You can reset your average fuel
economy by pressing and holding the
OK button on the left hand steering
wheel controls.
• Instantaneous Fuel Economy - If your
instantaneous fuel economy is greater
than the maximum value displayed, a
+ sign will be shown next to the
maximum scale number. When the
vehicle is operating on battery power
only, EV is displayed and the gauge fill
is shown in blue.
Battery Gauge:
Note: Battery gauge information can be
individually selected on or off through
Battery Display in the Options sub-menu.
From any main display a right arrow press
on the steering wheel controls will take
you to the options sub-menu.
The high-voltage battery gauge appears
on the right side of the left information
display screen. This provides Charge Fill
(State of Charge), Charge Assist and
Regen Display.
Charge Fill
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.

Note:
If your engine is misfiring, excessive
exhaust temperatures could damage the
catalytic converter or other vehicle
components.
The service engine soon indicator lights
when the you first switch on your vehicle,
prior to engine start, to check the bulb and
to indicate whether the vehicle is ready
for inspection maintenance testing.
Normally, the service engine soon light
will stay on until the engine cranks, then
turn itself off if no malfunctions are
present. However, if after 15 seconds the
service engine soon light blinks eight
times, it means that the vehicle is not
ready for inspection maintenance testing.
See Emission Control System (page 164).
Stability Control Flashes when the system is
active. If it stays lit or does not
light when you switch on the
ignition, this indicates a malfunction.
During a malfunction the system will switch
off. Have an authorized dealer check the
system immediately.
See Using Stability
Control (page 181).
Stability Control Off Lights when you switch the
system off. It will go out when
you switch the system back on
or when you switch off the ignition.

Vehicle Range
Indicates the estimated distance the
vehicle will travel with the energy currently
available. For Hybrid, the vehicle range
estimate is based on the fuel remaining in
the gasoline tank. For Energi, the total
estimated range equals the range
available in Hybrid Mode fueled by
gasoline, plus the electric range available
in Plug-in Power Mode. Changes in driving
pattern may cause the values to vary.
Inform
Inform shows the fuel level, battery display
and average fuel economy, with options
available for the Battery Display and an
Instantaneous Fuel Economy gauge. When
the vehicle is operating on battery power
only with the engine off, EV is displayed. Enlighten
Enlighten displays power demand in
addition to the typical information and
options from Inform. The Instantaneous
Fuel Economy gauge will be displayed by
default. When the vehicle is operating on
battery power only with the engine off, EV
is displayed and the gauge fill is shown in
blue. When both the engine and high
voltage battery are providing power the
gauge fill is white.
Engage
Engage replaces the power demand
gauge from Enlighten with separate
gauges for engine power and high voltage
battery power. The engine power gauge
fill is white and the high voltage battery
power gauge fill is blue. When the vehicle
is operating on battery power only with
the engine off, EV is displayed.

The thermometer indicator next to the
gauge will illuminate in blue or white to
indicate the following:
•
Blue thermometer - This indicates that
the hybrid system is not warm enough
to allow EV operation. The gasoline
engine will typically run continuously
when the indicator is blue.
Note: During silent key start mode, the
thermometer indicator will be blue, but the
gasoline engine will not run. This is the
result of the vehicle computer allowing the
engine to be cooler during the silent key
start period. This is normal operation and
does not indicate a problem with your
vehicle. After the first engine start the
indicator will turn white when the gasoline
engine is warm enough to turn off. •
White thermometer - This indicates that
the hybrid system is warm enough to
allow EV operation. If the vehicle
operates on battery power long
enough, it is possible that the gasoline
engine may need to run to keep the
system warm. In this case, the
thermometer indicator will revert back
to blue.
• Tach rpm x 1000 — When the gasoline
engine is running, the tachometer
gauge displays the engine speed in
revolutions per minute (RPM). When
the vehicle is operating on battery
power only with the engine off, EV is
displayed and the tachometer is
greyed out.
Note: The trip data, and average fuel
economy cannot be reset in MyView.

• Fuel History: This view from left to right starts with the instantaneous fuel economy\
gauge and adds historical fuel economy data. The data is represented as \
an average
for time intervals of either 1, 2 or 6 minutes, with the left most inter\
val being the most
recent. Total time for the 5 intervals is shown at the bottom of the view. Intervals
shown in grey color are from the previous drive.
Note: You can reset your average fuel economy by pressing and holding the OK button
on the left hand steering wheel controls.
• Coach:
This view provides a comparison of your recent Acceleration, Braking an\
d
Cruising behavior to what is recommended for most efficient use of energ\
y under
present conditions. The horizontal bars fill from left to right with bes\
t behavior (and
Blue color) shown as at least half full. When the bars are less than ha\
lf full, the color
is Amber, suggesting that a change in behavior is needed to achieve better energ\
y
efficiency.
Note: Fuel economy is not always a measure of appropriate driving behavior. For
example, when driving uphill and maintaining an appropriate speed, your instant\
fuel
economy may not be good (losing leaves) but the Coach may show a blue \
bar for
Acceleration or Cruising.
Info In this mode, you can view
different vehicle system
information and perform a
system check.
