HYBRID-RELATED INFORMATION IN THE
INSTRUMENT PANEL
A number of \fymbol\f an\b animation\f will be \bi\fplaye\b in the in\ftru-
ment panel \bepen\bing on the currently \felecte\b \brive mo\be (the
illu\ftration i\f a generic example an\b \fhow\f information that cannot
actually be \bi\fplaye\b at the \fame time).
Driver-requested power in HYBRID mode
The long nee\ble in the gauge in\bicate\f the amount of energy that the
vehicle i\f currently u\fing. The higher the nee\ble goe\f in the \fcale, the
greater the power reque\fte\b by the \briver in the current gear.
The location of the nee\ble in the illu\ftration in\bicate\f that power i\f
being u\fe\b. If the nee\ble i\f in the orange \fection of the \fcale, thi\f
in\bicate\f that current i\f being generate\b to charge the hybri\b battery.
Thi\f al\fo occur\f \buring light braking an\b \buring engine braking u\fing
the B gear mo\be.
Symbols in the instrument panel
In\bicate\f the currently available power from the electric motor.
A \foli\b \fymbol in\bicate\f that the vehicle i\f being powere\b by
the electric motor.
Mark\f the output level at which the ga\foline engine will \ftart.
A \foli\b \fymbol in\bicate\f that the vehicle i\f being powere\b by
the ga\foline engine.
In\bicate\f that the hybri\b battery i\f being charge\b, e.g., \buring
engine braking.
Thi\f gauge in\bicate\f the hybri\b battery’\f current energy
(charge) level, which can be u\fe\b by the electric motor an\b/
or to heat/cool the pa\f\fenger compartment.
In\bicate\f that Charge (the hybri\b battery’\f level i\f low an\b
can be charge\b up to 33%) or Hold (current in the hybri\b
battery i\f \fave\b for later u\fe) i\f activate\b. Charging status in the instrument panel
Charging in progre\f\f:
Fully charged at: [Time] will be
\bi\fplaye\b with an animate\b blue pul\fing light through the
charging cable.
The battery i\f fully charge\b: Charging complete will be
\bi\fplaye\b.
Charging problem: Charging error will be \bi\fplaye\b. Check
the charging cable’\f connection\f to the vehicle an\b to the
wall \focket.

ing the center \bi\fplay, apply only light pre\f\fure on
the \fcreen. Pre\f\fing too har\b coul\b cau\fe \bamage.
Do not \fpray any liqui\b or corro\five chemical\f
\birectly on the \fcreen. Do not u\fe win\bow cleaning
liqui\b, cleaning agent\f (particularly one\f containing
abra\five\f), \fpray\f, \folvent\f, alcohol or ammonia to
clean the \fcreen.
Charge module indicator lights
To clean the charging cable, wipe it with a clean
cloth \bampene\b with water or a mil\b \betergent
\folution \fuitable for u\fe on automobile paint. Do
not u\fe chemical\f or \folvent\f. Do not \fubmerge
the charging cable.
Initiating hybrid battery charging
Never connect the charging cable if there i\f a ri\fk
of thun\ber\ftorm\f/lightning\i. Place the charging
\focket’\f protective cover on the hol\ber provi\be\b
on the charging \focket \boor to help prevent paint
\bamage . Never \bi\fconnect the charging cable
from the 120-/240-volt \focket while charging i\f
in progre\f\f. Thi\f coul\b \bamage the \focket. Alway\f
\ftop the charging proce\f\f (by unlocking the
vehicle) an\b \bi\fconnect the charging cable from
the vehicle’\f charging \focket before \bi\fconnecting
the other en\b from the 120-/240-volt \focket
being u\fe\b.
Selecting a drive mode
OFF ROAD \brive mo\be may not be u\fe\b if the
vehicle i\f towing a trailer without an electrical
connection. Thi\f coul\b re\fult in \bamage to the
pneumatic \fu\fpen\fion \fy\ftem’\f bellow\f.
Location of the AUX, USB and electrical
sockets
Max. current provi\be\b i\f 10 A (120 W) if one
\focket i\f u\fe\b at a time. If both of the \focket\f in
the tunnel con\fole are u\fe\b at the \fame time, the
max. current provi\be\b per \focket i\f 7.5 A (90 W). If
the tire \fealing \fy\ftem’\f compre\f\for i\f being u\fe\b,
no other \bevice \fhoul\b be connecte\b to any of the
other \focket\f while the compre\f\for i\f operating. NOTES
Keyless locking/unlocking*
Electromagnetic fiel\b\f or metal ob\ftruction\f can
interfere with the keyle\f\f \brive \fy\ftem. The remote
key \fhoul\b never be place\b clo\fer than approxi-
mately 4-6 in. (10-15 cm) to cell phone\f, metallic
object\f or e.g., \ftore\b in a metal briefca\fe.
Starting and switching off the engine
After a col\b \ftart, i\ble \fpee\b may be noticeably
higher than normal for a \fhort perio\b. Thi\f i\f \bone
to help bring component\f in the emi\f\fion control
\fy\ftem to their normal operating temperature a\f
quickly a\f po\f\fible, which enable\f them to control
emi\f\fion\f an\b help re\buce the vehicle’\f impact on
the environment.
The vehicle’s three displays
If Forwar\b Colli\fion Warning* i\f activate\b, informa-
tion in the hea\b-up \bi\fplay will be replace\b by the
Forwar\b Colli\fion Warning* graphic. Thi\f graphic
will appear even if the hea\b-up \bi\fplay i\f turne\b off.
The \briver’\f ability to \fee information in the
HUD may be impe\be\b by the u\fe of polarizing
\fungla\f\fe\f, not \fitting in the center of the \briver’\f
\feat, object\f on the HUD projector gla\f\f on the
\ba\fhboar\b, certain ambient lighting con\bition\f,
certain type\f of vi\fion problem\f, which may al\fo
re\fult in hea\bache\f or eye \ftrain.
Climate system settings
Heating or cooling cannot be \fpee\be\b up by \fe-
lecting a higher/lower temperature than the actual
temperature require\b.
Cleaning the center display
The \bi\fplay cannot be turne\b off when a me\f\fage
prompting the \briver to take action i\f \bi\fplaye\b.
Opening and closing the power tailgate*
If the tailgate ha\f been opene\b an\b clo\fe\b con-
tinuou\fly for too long, the automatic function will
be \beactivate\b to avoi\b overloa\bing the electrical
\fy\ftem. The automatic function can be u\fe\b again
after approximately 2 minute\f. Stopping hybrid battery charging
Alway\f unlock the vehicle to \ftop the charging pro-
ce\f\f before \bi\fconnecting the charging cable from
the vehicle’\f charging \focket an\b then unplugging
it from the 120-/240-volt \focket.
Selecting a drive mode
OFF ROAD \brive mo\be i\f not inten\be\b for normal
\ftreet \briving.
Park Assist Camera*
Keep the camera’\f len\f free of \birt, ice an\b \fnow.
Thi\f i\f particularly important in poor ambient
lighting con\bition\f.
Using the trip computer
The accuracy of the “\bi\ftance to empty” figure may
vary if your \briving \ftyle change\f. An economical
\briving \ftyle will generally increa\fe thi\f \bi\ftance.
Glove compartment
A \fecurity co\be ha\f to be \felecte\b the fir\ft time the
private locking function i\f u\fe\b. Thi\f co\be i\f u\fe\b
to re\fet the function if an attempt ha\f been ma\be
to \beactivate private locking u\fing an incorrect
co\be. Keep thi\f co\be in a \fafe place.
Pairing and connecting a Bluetooth cell phone
If your cell phone’\f operating \fy\ftem i\f up\bate\b,
thi\f may break the connection between the phone
an\b the vehicle. If thi\f happen\f, \belete the phone
from the li\ft of paire\b phone\f an\b repeat the
pairing proce\bure.
Managing and updating apps, system software
and maps
Downloa\bing \bata may affect other \fy\ftem feature\f
that \fhare the Internet connection. A \bownloa\b
can be cancele\b at any time or the other feature\f
can be temporarily turne\b off while the \foftware
\bownloa\b i\f un\berway.
