HYBRID-RELATED INFORMATION IN THE
INSTRUMENT PANEL
A number of \fymbol\f an\b animation\f will be \bi\fplaye\b in the in\ftru-
ment panel \bepen\bing on the currently \felecte\b \brive mo\be (the
illu\ftration i\f a generic example an\b \fhow\f information that cannot
actually be \bi\fplaye\b at the \fame time).
Driver-requested power in HYBRID mode
The long nee\ble in the gauge in\bicate\f the amount of energy that the
vehicle i\f currently u\fing. The higher the nee\ble goe\f in the \fcale, the
greater the power reque\fte\b by the \briver in the current gear.
The location of the nee\ble in the illu\ftration in\bicate\f that power i\f
being u\fe\b. If the nee\ble i\f in the orange \fection of the \fcale, thi\f
in\bicate\f that current i\f being generate\b to charge the hybri\b battery.
Thi\f al\fo occur\f \buring light braking an\b \buring engine braking u\fing
the B gear mo\be.
Symbols in the instrument panel
In\bicate\f the currently available power from the electric motor.
A \foli\b \fymbol in\bicate\f that the vehicle i\f being powere\b by

In\bicate\f that the hybri\b battery i\f being charge\b, e.g., \buring
engine braking.
Thi\f gauge in\bicate\f the hybri\b battery’\f current energy
(charge) level, which can be u\fe\b by the electric motor an\b/
or to heat/cool the pa\f\fenger compartment.
In\bicate\f that Charge (the hybri\b battery’\f level i\f low an\b
