UNIQUE EV FUNCTIONS
DRIVING RANGE
Symptom Possible cause Possible solution
The driving range cannot be displayed. The power switch is in the ACC position. The driving range can be displayed when the power
switch is in the ON position or when the READY to
drive indicator light is on.
It cannot be displayed because the distance to empty
is too short. Charge the battery. Once the distance to empty
increased it will be displayed.
The driving range is displayed in an oval shape. As a result of the system correcting latitude and longitude, it may not be displayed as a circle.This is not a malfunction.
The distance to empty that is displayed in the lower
left hand side of the driving range and the scale of the
map do not match. As the map is displayed in 2D, the distance to empty
may differ from the actual distance on the road.
This is not a malfunction.
Drive using the numerical value on the lower left hand
side of the screen as a guide.
