Power utilized by the driver
The indicator shows the amount of power utilized (requested) by the driver through pressure on theaccelerator pedal. The higher the reading on thescale, the greater the amount of power utilized inthe current gear. The mark between the "light-ning" and "drop" symbols is the point at whichthe electric motor switches off and the gasolineengine starts.
Examples
The vehicle has started but is stationary and no power is being utilized.
The electric motor alone cannot provide the power requested and the gasoline engine willstart.
The vehicle is generating current to recharge the battery, e.g., during moderate braking or duringengine braking on a downslope.
The Save drive mode
The Save drive mode is activated. The battery's charge level is locked at the level it was at whenthis drive mode was activated, which is shown by the
symbol near the battery indicator. The
control system maintains this charge level by using the gasoline engine intermittently (in thesame way as in the Hybrid drive mode). If thehybrid battery's charge level was below 33%when Save was activated, the gasoline engine willbe used to charge the hybrid battery up to thislevel.

If the ring is not in this position, toggling between high and low beams must be done manually. If the ring is turned to another position while the high beams are on, the headlights will automati-cally switch to low beams. A white symbol (
) in the instrument panel
indicates that the function has been activated. When the high beams are on, the symbol will change to blue.
NOTE
•Keep the windshield in front of the cam- era free of ice, snow, dirt, etc.
• Do not mount or in any way attach any-thing on the windshield that couldobstruct the camera.

symbol are displayed. The symbol will go
out if this happens. Automatic high beams may be temporarily unavailable (e.g., in heavy fog or rain). When thesystem becomes active again or if the sensors inthe windshield are no longer obscured, the mes- sages will disappear and the
symbol will
illuminate.
