Common Displays
Fuel Economy Displays:
Displays your average and instantaneous
fuel economy on most Display Mode
screens.
Note:
You can reset your average fuel
economy by pressing and holding the OK
button on the left hand steering wheel
controls. Average fuel economy cannot be
reset while on the MyView screen.
• Average Fuel Economy - is
continuously averaged since the last
reset. You can reset your average fuel
economy by pressing and holding the
OK button on the left hand steering
wheel controls. For Energi vehicles both
Hybrid and Plug-in Power mode
operation will be included in the
calculation.
• Instantaneous Fuel Economy - If your
instantaneous fuel economy is greater
than the maximum value displayed, a
+ sign will be shown next to the
maximum scale number. When the
vehicle is operating on battery power
only, EV is displayed and the gauge fill
is shown in blue.
Battery Gauge:
Note: Battery gauge information can be
individually selected on or off through
Battery Display in the Options sub-menu.
From any main display a right arrow press
on the steering wheel controls will take you
to the Options sub-menu.
Note: For Energi vehicles there are two
versions of the battery gauge. When the
vehicle is in Hybrid Mode the information is
shown with a simple battery graphic. When
in Plug-in Power Mode an enhanced battery
graphic is provided and available electric
range is added to the display. The high voltage battery gauge appears
on the right side of the information display
screen. This provides Charge Fill (State of
Charge), Charge Assist and Regen Display.
•
Charge Fill (Hybrid Mode) - The fill
level, or State of Charge indicates the
amount of energy stored in the high
voltage battery as a percent of total
energy capacity. The level will increase
or decrease as the battery charges and
discharges during normal operation.
• Charge Fill (Energi Plug-in Power
Mode) - The fill level indicates the
amount of energy stored in the high
voltage battery which is available for
Plug-in Power Mode. A full fill
represents the total amount of energy
you can get from an external charge
(plugging your vehicle in). When the fill
reaches empty your vehicle will
automatically enter Hybrid Mode.
Note: The Charge Fill is always shown for
Plug-in Power Mode, even if Charge Fill is
not selected under Battery Display in the
Options sub-menu.

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

• 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. 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.

• 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.
Info In this mode, you can view
different vehicle system
information and perform a
system check.

SITTING IN THE CORRECT
POSITION
WARNINGS
Sitting improperly, out of position or
with the seat back reclined too far
can take weight off the seat cushion
and affect the decision of the passenger
sensing system, resulting in serious injury
or death in the event of a crash. Always sit
upright against your seat back, with your
feet on the floor. Do not recline the seat back as this
can cause the occupant to slide
under the safety belt, resulting in
serious injury in the event of a crash. Do not place objects higher than the
seat back to reduce the risk of
serious injury in the event of a crash
or during heavy braking. When you use them properly, the seat,
head restraint, safety belt and air bags will
provide optimum protection in the event
of a crash. We recommend that you follow these
guidelines:
•
Sit in an upright position with the base
of your spine as far back as possible.
• Do not recline the seat back more than
30 degrees.
• Adjust the head restraint so that the
top of it is level with the top of your
head and as far forward as possible.
Make sure that you remain
comfortable.
• Keep sufficient distance between
yourself and the steering wheel. We
recommend a minimum of 10 inches
(25 centimeters) between your
breastbone and the air bag cover.
• Hold the steering wheel with your arms
slightly bent.
• Bend your legs slightly so that you can
press the pedals fully.
• Position the shoulder strap of the
safety belt over the center of your
shoulder and position the lap strap
tightly across your hips.
Make sure that your driving position is
comfortable and that you can maintain full
control of your vehicle.
HEAD RESTRAINTS WARNINGS
Fully adjust the head restraint before
you sit in or operate your vehicle. This
will help minimize the risk of neck
injury in the event of a crash. Do not adjust
the head restraint when your vehicle is
moving. The head restraint is a safety device.
Whenever possible it should be
installed and properly adjusted when
the seat is occupied. An improperly
adjusted head restraint may not
adequately protect an occupant during an
impact from the rear.
