Engine coolant temperature
gauge:Indicates engine coolant
temperature. At normal operating
temperature, the level indicator will
be blue 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,
switch off the engine and let the engine cool.
Empower instrument cluster level only:The
indicator next to the
gauge will illuminate in green or white to indicate the following:
•
Indicator white: This indicates that the hybrid system is not
warm enough to allow operation in electric vehicle mode only. The
gasoline engine will run continuously when the indicator is white.
Note:During silent key start mode, the
indicator will be white,
but the gasoline engine will not run. This is a 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
green when the gasoline engine is warm enough to turn off.
•
Indicator green: This indicates that the hybrid system is warm
enough to allow operation in electric vehicle mode.
If the vehicle operates in electric mode long enough, it is possible that
the gasoline engine may need to run to keep the system warm. In this
case, the
indicator will revert back to white.
High-voltage battery information
gauge:The fill level indicates the
amount of energy stored in the
high-voltage battery as a percent of
total energy capacity. The level will
increase and decrease as the battery
charges and discharges during
normal operation, but the hybrid
system will attempt to control the
level to approximately the middle of
the gauge under most driving
conditions.

Note:Do not plug optional electrical accessories into the cigarette
lighter socket (if equipped). Improper use of the lighter can cause
damage not covered by your warranty, and can result in fire or serious
injury.
To prevent the fuse from being blown, do not use the power point(s)
over the vehicle capacity of 12V DC/180W. If the power point is not
working, a fuse may have blown. Refer toFuses and relaysin the
Roadside Emergencieschapter for information on checking and
replacing fuses.
To have full capacity usage of your power point, the engine is required to
be running to avoid unintentional discharge of the battery. To prevent
the battery from being discharged:
•do not use the power point longer than necessary when the engine is
not running,
•do not leave battery chargers, video game adapters, computers and
other devices plugged in overnight or when the vehicle is parked for
extended periods.
Always keep the power point caps closed when not being used.
Power point (110V AC)
The 110V AC power point outlet,
located on the rear of the floor
console, is used for powering
electrical devices that require up to
150W. Exceeding the 150W limit will
cause the power point to cut off the
power temporarily to provide
overload protection.
Note:The 110V AC power point is equipped with a safety cap and a
safety twist tab. They both provide protection from inserting any object
into the power point other than the 110V AC electrical device plug. The
safety cap should always be in a closed position whenever the power
point outlet is not in use.
The power outlet is not designed for the following electric appliances;
they may not work properly:
•Cathode ray tube type televisions.
•Motor loads, such as vacuum cleaners, electric saws and other electric
power tools, compressor-driven refrigerators, etc.

For maximum vehicle performance, keep the following information in
mind when adding accessories or equipment to your vehicle:
•When adding accessories, equipment, passengers and luggage to your
vehicle, do not exceed the total weight capacity of the vehicle or of
the front or rear axle (GVWR or GAWR as indicated on the Safety
Compliance Certification label). Consult your authorized dealer for
specific weight information.
•The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Canadian Radio
Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) regulate the use of mobile
communications systems — such as two-way radios, telephones and
theft alarms - that are equipped with radio transmitters. Any such
equipment installed in your vehicle should comply with FCC or CRTC
regulations and should be installed only by a qualified service
technician.
•
Mobile communications systems may harm the operation of your vehicle,
particularly if they are not properly designed for automotive use.
•To avoid interference with other vehicle functions, such as anti-lock
braking systems, amateur radio users who install radios and antennas
onto their vehicle should not locate the Amateur Radio Antennas in
the area of the driver’s side hood.
•Electrical or electronic accessories or components that are added to
the vehicle by the authorized dealer or the owner, may adversely
affect battery performance and durability, and may also adversely
affect the performance of other electrical systems in the vehicle.
