Efficiency Leaves
Efficiency leaves indicate short term driving
efficiency measured over the last few
minutes. The more leaves and vines that
appear on the display, the better your fuel
economy. Leaves and vines will occasionally
appear and disappear to indicate a change
in your driving efficiency. Flowers appear on the efficiency leaves
screen in addition to the leaves and vines.
The flowers indicate long term driving
efficiency. The more flowers that appear on
the display, the more efficiently you have
driven. Once earned, the flowers will remain
unless reset, unlike the leaves, which come
and go as your short term fuel economy
changes.
Flowers can be reset in the information
displays settings menu under Driving History.
See General Information (page 108).Fuel History
From left to right this view includes an
instantaneous fuel economy gauge, historical
fuel economy data and average fuel
economy. The historical data represents an
average over time intervals of either 1, 2 or
6 minutes, with the leftmost interval being
the most recent. Shown at the bottom of the
118
MKZ Hybrid (CC9) Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV), Canada/United States of America, enUSA, First Printing Information Displays

view is the total time duration for the 5
intervals. You can select total duration in the
options menu. Intervals shown in grey color
are from the previous drive. The blue
horizontal line represents the average fuel
economy value shown to the right.
Note:
Hold OK to reset fuel history and
average fuel economy.
Coach
This view provides a comparison of your
recent acceleration, braking and cruising
behavior, then recommends the most
efficient use of energy under present
conditions. The horizontal bars fill from left
to right with best behavior and appear blue
when at least half full. When the bars are less
than half full, the color is amber, suggesting
that you need a change in your driving
behavior to achieve better energy efficiency.
Note: Fuel Economy will be impacted by your
use of brakes, accelerator and accessories,
as well as environmental conditions such as
hills and weather. 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 and Cruising.
Common Displays
Both Average fuel economy and an
instantaneous fuel economy gauge are
included in Engage, Empower and MyView
(if selected) on the left information display.
They are also included in Fuel History on the
right information display.
Average Fuel Economy
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 corresponding
steering wheel controls.
Note: Average fuel economy cannot be reset
in MyView. 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 your vehicle is operating on
battery power only, EV will display and the
gauge fill will show in blue.
