Instantaneous fuel economy
gauge:The instantaneous fuel
economy is displayed in miles per
gallon (or liters per 100 kilometers)
from 0 to 60 mpg (or 0 to
30L/100km). Your vehicle must be
moving to calculate instantaneous
fuel economy. If your instantaneous
fuel economy is greater than
60 mpg, a “+” sign will be displayed
next to the 60, indicating that the
current value is above the maximum that the graph can display.
Instantaneous fuel economy cannot be reset. You may turn this gauge on
or off at any information level. Refer toMessage centerin this chapter
for more information.
Efficiency information gauge:You have three choices for displaying
efficiency information: Efficiency Leaves, History Graph, or No Efficiency
Information. You may make this selection at any information level. Refer
toMessage centerin this chapter for more information on choosing the
efficiency displays.
Efficiency leaves:Indicates short
term driving efficiency, measured
over the last few minutes. The more
leaves and vines that are displayed,
the more efficiently you’re driving.
Leaves and vines will occasionally
appear and disappear to indicate a
change in driving efficiency.
Note:The efficiency display can be
impacted by your use of brakes,
accelerator and accessories as well
as environmental conditions such as terrain and weather.

History graph:Indicates average
fuel economy in 10, 20, or
60 minute intervals. You can choose
the interval using the message
center. The graph is updated each
minute with the fuel economy that
was achieved during the prior 1, 2,
or 6 minutes of driving, respectively.
Each new average will be added to
the left side of the graph, shifting
the past data to the right. When the
graph area is full, the right most point will be deleted, keeping a running
scroll with the bar on the left being the most recent. Note that previous
values will remain when the vehicle is shut off and restarted, but values
from a previous drive cycle will be grayed out. The average fuel economy
since the last reset, or last 2,000 miles (3,200 km) of driving, is shown as
a horizontal line across the bar graph.
Refer toMessage centerin this chapter for more information on the
history graph display mode.
No efficiency information:If you choose, you may turn off both the
Efficiency leaves and History Graph using the message center. In this
case, the portion of your instrument cluster devoted to this information
will be blank.
Refer toMessage centerin this chapter for more information on
choosing no efficiency information.
Average fuel economy:Your average fuel economy in miles/gallon will
be displayed at the top right of your vehicle’s instrument cluster or in
liters/100 km at the lower right along with the efficiency leaves, history
graph or no display (shown previously with history graph). You may
reset this average at any time. Refer toMessage centerin this chapter
for more information on the average fuel economy display mode.
If you calculate your average fuel economy by dividing distance traveled
by amount of fuel used, your figure may be different than displayed for
the following reasons:
•Your vehicle was not perfectly level during fill-up
•Differences in the automatic shut-off points on the fuel pumps at
service stations
•Variations in top-off procedure from one fill-up to another
•Rounding of the displayed values to the nearest 0.1 gallon (liter)

To determine your average highway fuel economy, do the following:
1. Drive the vehicle at least 5 miles (8 km) with the speed control
system engaged to display a stabilized average.
2. Record the highway fuel economy for future reference.
It is important to press the RESET button to reset the function after
setting the speed control to get accurate highway fuel economy readings.
For more information refer toEssentials of good fuel economyin the
Maintenance and Specificationschapter.
Distance to empty (DTE):Distance to Empty is displayed in the lower
right for miles or on the top right for kilometers of your vehicle’s
instrument cluster along with the efficiency, history graph or no display
(shown previously with history graph). This function will give you an
estimate of how far you can drive with the fuel remaining in your tank
under normal driving conditions. Distance to empty will vary according
to your driving habits.
DTE is calculated using a running average fuel economy, which is based
on your recent driving history of 500 miles (800 km). This value is not
the same as the average fuel economy display. The running average fuel
economy is re-initialized to a factory default value if the battery is
disconnected.
Turn your vehicle off when refuelling to correctly detect the amount fuel
being added and allow this feature to work correctly.
Refer toMessage centerin this chapter for more information on the
distance to empty display mode.
Tachometer and EV mode gauge
(enlighten instrument cluster
level only):When the gasoline
engine is running, this gauge
displays the engine speed in
revolutions per minute (RPM).
When the hybrid system is operating
in electric vehicle mode (without
the gasoline engine), EV is
displayed. SeeEV mode onlynext.

Trip summary:When the ignition key is turned to the off position, the
instrument cluster will transition to a trip summary screen which
displays the following information for your most recent drive:
•Distance
•Fuel economy
•Fuel used
•Trip efficiency (this is displayed via the efficiency leaves graphic).
Long term fuel economy is also displayed, showing the vehicle’s fuel
economy since the last customer reset. To reset long term fuel economy,
seeResetsin theMessage centersection in this chapter.
MESSAGE CENTER
With the ignition in the on position, the message center, located on your

constant monitor of vehicle systems.You may select display features
on the message center for a display of status. The system will also notify
you of potential vehicle problems with a display of system warnings
followed by a long indicator chime.
