5-16 Instruments and Controls
Compass
The vehicle has a compass display
in the instrument cluster above
the speedometer. The compass
receives its heading and other
information from the Global
Positioning System (GPS) antenna
and vehicle speed information.
The compass system has automatic
calibration and zone adjustment
features.
Avoid covering the GPS antenna
for long periods of time with objects
that may interfere with the antenna's
ability to receive a satellite signal.
SeeMulti-Band Antenna on
page 7‑18 for the location of the
vehicle's antenna. The compass
system is designed to operate for a
certain number of miles or degrees
of turn before needing a signal from
the GPS satellites. The compass
system will automatically determine
when a GPS signal is restored and
provide a heading.
Battery Gauge
(High Voltage)
This indicator displays the high
voltage battery charge level.
When this indicator is displayed
in the foreground, the vehicle
is operating in Electric Mode.
The number next to the indicator
displays an estimate of how far
the vehicle can be driven while
in this mode.
See Electric Mode on page 9‑25.
Fuel Gauge
This indicator displays the fuel
level. When this indicator is in the
foreground, the vehicle is operating
in Extended Range Mode.
The number next to the indicator
displays an estimate of how far
the vehicle can be driven while
in this mode.
SeeExtended Range Mode on
page 9‑25.

Frequency interference and static

devices are plugged into the
accessory power outlet. If there is
interference or static, unplug the
item from the accessory power
outlet.
FM
FM signals only reach about 16 to
65 km (10 to 40 mi). Although the
radio has a built-in electronic circuit
that automatically works to reduce
interference, some static can occur,
especially around tall buildings or
hills, causing the sound to fade in
and out.
