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.

Information Displays
Unique content available in MyView: • Accessory Power— Indicates electrical
power demands from your vehicle’s accessory systems. Accessories use power but do not contribute to propelling the vehicle. The gauge separately displays power demand in kilowatts (kW) for climate and other accessories.
Climate includes the power being used by high voltage climate control components such as the electric A/C compressor and the electric heater (Energi vehicles only) Other includes all power being used by the low voltage accessories (cabin fans, headlights, heated seats, etc.). • Coolant Temp – Indicates engine coolant temperature. At normal operating temperature, the level indicator will be white and will be in the normal range (between H and C). If the engine coolant temperature exceeds the normal range, the level indicator will change to red to indicate that the engine is overheating. Stop the vehicle as soon as safely possible, turn off the vehicle and let the engine cool.
The thermometer indicator next to the gauge will illuminate in blue or white to indicate the following (not available for Energi vehicles): •
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.
Empower Empower adds an engine on/off threshold to the power demand gauge from Enlighten. The threshold is shown as a blue double outline. The gauge is designed to show you how close you are to the gasoline engine on/off threshold and how much power you are requesting based on how far you press the accelerator pedal. When power demand is below the threshold the vehicle is operating on battery power only with the engine off, EV is displayed and the gauge fill is shown in blue. When power demand exceeds the threshold both the engine and the high voltage battery provide power and the gauge fill is white. When power demand surpasses the amber indicator, this level of demand and associated fuel economy are shown in amber. Note: You can reset your average fuel economy by pressing and holding the OK button on the left hand steering wheel controls. MyView You can choose what to display in this view. Selecting Change MyView in the options menu allows you to scroll through two columns of content choices. • Press the up or down arrow to view
content.
• Use the right and left arrows to move between the left column content and the middle column content. The right column is reserved for the Battery Gauge and the Fuel Gauge.
•
Once you have your desired content showing in each column then press OK to save. This becomes your new MyView screen.

Information Displays
• Consumption Gauge: Your current
present energy use per distance traveled is represented by 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 shown on the battery gauge at the time of entering EV now. 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 such as the electric A/C compressor and the electric heater. These components use power but do not contribute to propelling the vehicle. The gauge displays power demand in kilowatts (kW). Trip 1 & 2
Use the arrow buttons to choose between the following.
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. Energy Use (Energi only) Energy Use provides an 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 129). Note: Pressing OK resets the odometer and timer.

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 interval 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 and Cruising behavior to what is recommended for most efficient use of energy under present conditions. The horizontal bars fill from left to right with best behavior (and Blue color) shown as at least half full. When the bars are less than half full, the color is Amber, suggesting that a change in behavior is needed to achieve better energy 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.
