The thermometer indicator next to the
gauge will illuminate in blue or white to
indicate the following:
•
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.
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.
