Hybrid-related information in the instrument panel
Different types of information will be displayed in the instrument panel, depending on the drivemode selected. These drive modes offer uniqueways of helping the driver achieve the best pos-sible driving economy. The vehicle also stores driving statistics that can be viewed in the form of a bar graph.
Hybrid-unique symbolsThe various gauges and indicators in the instru- ment panel show the relationship between theelectric motor's current power consumption andthe remaining power available.
Indicates the currently available outputfrom the electric motor. A solid symbolindicates that the electric motor isbeing used.
Indicates the currently available output from the electric motor. A hollow sym-bol means that the electric motor is not being used.
Indicates the output level when the gasoline engine starts. A solid symbolindicates that the gasoline engine isbeing used.
Indicates the output level when the gasoline engine will start. A hollowsymbol indicates that the gasoline engine is not being used.
Indicates that the hybrid battery is being charged.
Indicates the current charge level in the electric motor's battery. This indica-tor is located by the hybrid batterygauge in the lower right corner.
eDTE (Electrical Distance To Empty) indicator (distance until the hybrid bat-tery is discharged).
The hybrid gauge
Available electric motor output
This hybrid battery indicator is located between the hybrid gauge and the fuel gauge on the lowerright side of the instrument panel. It indicates thecurrent (charge level) remaining in the hybrid bat-tery, which can be used to power the electricmotor or to heat/cool the vehicle.

Power utilized by the driver
The indicator shows the amount of power utilized (requested) by the driver through pressure on theaccelerator pedal. The higher the reading on thescale, the greater the amount of power utilized inthe current gear. The mark between the "light-ning" and "drop" symbols is the point at whichthe electric motor switches off and the gasolineengine starts.
Examples
The vehicle has started but is stationary and no power is being utilized.
The electric motor alone cannot provide the power requested and the gasoline engine willstart.
The vehicle is generating current to recharge the battery, e.g., during moderate braking or duringengine braking on a downslope.
The "Hold" and "Charge" functions
The "Hold" or "Charge" function is activated, which is shown by the
symbol near the bat-
tery indicator. See also the article "Maintaining/ increasing hybrid battery charge while driving" foradditional information.
