ing on congested roads, by driving uphill, by repeated
hard acceleration, and by use of the air conditioner and
heater.

power consumption data of the main drive lithium-ion
battery in the past is deleted. A different value from before
may be displayed. Be sure to use the display only for ref-
erence.

(50°C) or -40°F (-40°C).
The outside temperature displayed may differ from the
