This could damage the liftgate and its
components.
If the vehicle is running, the liftgate will only
operate with the transmission in park.
Three warning tones will sound once as
the liftgate begins to power close. Five
short chimes indicate a problem with the
open or close request, caused by: •
the ignition is on and the transmission
is not in P;
• or the battery voltage is below the
minimum operating voltage;
• or the vehicle speed is at or above 3
mph (5 km/h).
If the liftgate falls to the closed direction
after the liftgate has stopped in the open
position, four short warning chimes
indicate excessive weight on the gate or a
possible gas strut failure. Have the system
checked by an authorized dealer if you still
have the issue after you remove the load.

•
Electric Range (Energi Plug-in Power
Mode) - The electric range estimate is
personalized to the driver's key. The
estimate is based on the amount of
energy presently available in the high
voltage battery and your typical energy
usage while driving. This includes your
drive habits as well as your use of
accessories such as Climate Control.
The available battery energy refers to
the energy gained from charging the
battery while plugged in.
• Charge Assist - The up and down
arrows provide information about the
energy going into and out of the high
voltage battery. The up arrow above
the battery indicates battery charging
such as from regenerative braking. The
down arrow below the battery
indicates battery discharging to provide
power for propulsion or vehicle
accessories.
• Regen Display - When stepping on the
brake pedal, a circular arrow symbol
appears in the center of the Battery
Gauge when energy is being recaptured
through the regenerative braking
system.
Fuel Gauge:
The fuel gauge will indicate approximately
how much fuel is left in the fuel tank. The
fuel gauge may vary slightly when your
vehicle is moving or on a gradient. The
arrow adjacent to the fuel pump symbol
indicates on which side of the vehicle the
fuel filler door is located. Brake Coach Display:
The Brake Coach appears after your
vehicle has come to a stop. It coaches you
to brake in a manner which maximizes the
amount of energy returned through the
regenerative braking system. The percent
displayed is an indication of the
regenerative braking efficiency with 100%
representing the maximum amount of
energy recovery.
Trip Summary:
Trip Summary is displayed upon shutting
off your vehicle. The data is calculated over
the last on and off cycle.
•
Distance - The total distance traveled,
distance traveled on battery power
only (EV distance) and Regen distance
are displayed. Regen distance is the
estimated range gained from energy
recaptured through regenerative
braking.
• Fuel Use - The average fuel economy
and total fuel used are displayed. In
addition for Energi, the total electrical
energy used while in Plug-in Power
Mode is displayed in kilowatt hours
(kWh).
• Brake Score - The average percentage
of braking energy recaptured and
returned to the high voltage battery
through regenerative braking.
WARNING LAMPS AND
INDICATORS
The following warning lamps and
indicators will alert you to a vehicle
condition that may become serious. Some
lamps will light when you start your vehicle
to make sure they work. If any lamps
remain on after starting your vehicle, refer
to the respective system warning lamp for
further information.

Note:
During silent key start mode, the
thermometer indicator will be blue, but the
gasoline engine will not run. This is the 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 white when the gasoline engine is warm
enough to turn off.
• White thermometer - This indicates
that the hybrid system is warm enough
to allow EV operation. If the vehicle
operates on battery power long
enough, it is possible that the gasoline
engine may need to run to keep the
system warm. In this case, the
thermometer indicator will revert back
to blue.
• Tach rpm x 1000 — When the gasoline
engine is running, the tachometer
gauge displays the engine speed in
revolutions per minute (RPM). When
the vehicle is operating on battery
power only with the engine off, EV is
displayed and the tachometer is greyed
out.
Note: The trip data, and average fuel
economy cannot be reset in MyView.
Energy Use (Energi only)
Energy Use provides an energy use gauge
and a climate power gauge in addition to
fuel level and battery display. When you
select EV Now operation this screen will
automatically be shown. You can press OK
to enable the engine when viewing this
screen during EV Now operation. See
Hybrid Electric Vehicle (page 129). •
Consumption Gauge: Your current
present energy use per distance
traveled is represented by the white
line that moves up and down in the
gauge. A higher line means you are
using more energy (lower is better).
Your energy use includes input from
the accelerator pedal as well as the
accessories, such as Climate Control.
When operating in EV Now a blue cup
shape is shown around the gauge. This
represents the maximum energy usage you
can maintain in order to achieve the
estimated electric range shown on the
battery gauge at the time of entering EV
now. Keep your current energy use mostly
within the cup while driving and you should
achieve your electric range estimate.
• Climate Power Gauge: Indicates high
voltage electrical power demand from
you vehicle ’s high voltage climate
control components such as the
electric A/C compressor and the
electric heater. These components use
power but do not contribute to
propelling the vehicle. The gauge
displays power demand in kilowatts
(kW).
Trip 1 & 2 Use the arrow buttons to choose
between the following.
Note: Pressing
OK resets the odometer and timer.
