Vehicle Range
Vehicle range indicates the estimated
distance your vehicle will travel with the
energy currently onboard. The range is
displayed at the bottom of the screen with
gasoline range shown in white.
• Gasoline Range: Is the estimated
distance to empty based on the fuel
remaining in the tank.
The amount of energy being used while
driving is affected by:
• Mild or aggressive acceleration or
braking.
• Your vehicle speed.
• Your use of accessories such as climate
control.
• The ambient temperature and other
weather conditions.
• City or highway driving.
• Road grades.
Note: It is normal for vehicle range
estimates to vary due to changes in average
energy usage. This is why you will typically
see different range estimates each time you
fill up your fuel tank or fully charge your
battery. Trip Efficiency Leaves
Trip Efficiency Leaves display upon
shutting off your Hybrid vehicle. The
number of leaves represent the average
for the last trip. A new trip begins each time
you start your vehicle (when the Ready to
Drive message comes on). Corresponding
Trip Summary data displays on the left
information display.
WARNING LAMPS AND
INDICATORS
The following warning lamps and
indicators will alert you to a vehicle
condition that may become serious. Some
lamps will light when you start your vehicle
to make sure they work. If any lamps
remain on after starting your vehicle, refer
to the respective system warning lamp for
further information.
Note:
Some warning indicators appear in
the information display and function the
same as a warning lamp but do not display
when you start your vehicle.
Anti-Lock Braking System It illuminates momentarily when
you switch the ignition on to
confirm that the lamp is
functional. If it does not illuminate when
you switch the ignition on or begins to flash
at any time, have the system checked as
soon as possible.
If it lights when you are driving, this
indicates a malfunction. You will continue
to have normal braking (without anti-lock
braking system) unless the brake system
warning lamp also lights. Have the system
checked as soon as possible.

Battery
If it lights while driving, this
indicates a malfunction. Switch
off all unnecessary electrical
equipment and have the system checked
by an authorized dealer immediately.
Blind Spot Monitor (If Equipped) It illuminates when you switch
this feature off or in conjunction
with a message. See Blind Spot

you do not have the parking brake
engaged. If you do not have the parking
brake engaged, this indicates low brake
fluid level or a brake system malfunction.
Have the system checked as soon as
possible. WARNING
Driving your vehicle with the warning
lamp on is dangerous. A significant
decrease in braking performance

and any door is not completely
closed.
EcoSelect Lights when you switch on this
feature. See
EcoSelect (page
133).
Engine and Motor Coolant
Temperature Lights when the engine or motor
coolant temperature is high.
Stop the vehicle as soon as
possible, switch off the engine and let cool.
Engine Oil If it lights with the engine running
or while you are driving, this
indicates a malfunction. Stop
your vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so
and switch off the engine. Check the engine
oil level. See Engine Oil Check (page
215).
Note: Do not resume your journey if it lights
despite the level being correct. Have the
system checked by an authorized dealer
immediately.

low. You may also see a
message suggesting you reduce
your usage of the climate system. Low Fuel Level Lights when the fuel level is low
or the fuel tank is nearly empty.
Refuel as soon as possible.
Low Tire Pressure Warning Lights when your tire pressure is
low. If the lamp remains on with
the engine running or when
driving, check your tire pressure as soon as
possible.
It also lights momentarily when you switch
on the ignition to confirm the lamp is
functional. If it does not light when you
switch on the ignition, or begins to flash at
any time, have the system checked by an
authorized dealer.

parking lamps on.
Powertrain Fault Lights when the system detects
a powertrain or high-voltage
charge system fault. If the
indicator stays on or continues to come on,
contact an authorized dealer as soon as
possible.
Note: If your vehicle detects certain faults,
it will not allow you to operate the
accelerator pedal. If this happens, press the
brake pedal and release it. This will activate
limp home vehicle operation. In limp home
vehicle operation, your vehicle will
accelerate in a controlled manner up to a
maximum speed of 35 mph (56 km/h) on
a flat surface. If you apply the brake pedal
or move the transmission to neutral (N) you
can override your vehicle ’s acceleration.

Engage
Engage provides separate gauges for
engine power and high voltage battery
power in kilowatts (kW). The engine power
gauge fill is white and the high voltage
battery power gauge fill is blue. You can
also see an instantaneous fuel economy
gauge. When your vehicle is operating on
battery power only, you will see EV
displayed and the gauges will appear in
blue.
Empower
Empower provides a power demand gauge
in kilowatts (kW) which includes an engine
on or off threshold.
•
When your vehicle is operating with
battery power only (below the
threshold), you will see EV displayed
and the gauge fill is blue.
• When your vehicle is operating with
both the engine and the high voltage
battery providing power the gauge fill
is white.
• When power demand surpasses the
amber indicator, this level of demand
and associated fuel economy displays
in amber.
• When the engine is on, reducing power
demand to less than the threshold will
allow the engine to turn off.
You can also see an instantaneous fuel
economy gauge.
Note: You can reset your average fuel
economy by pressing and holding the OK
button on the left hand steering wheel
controls.
MyView
You can choose what to display in this
view. Selecting
Change MyView in the
options menu allows you to scroll through
two columns of content choices. •
Press the up or down arrow to view
content.
• Press
OK to save your selected
content.
• You must select content in both
columns before you can save your new
MyView.
Unique content available in MyView:
• Accessory Power — Indicates electrical
power demands from your vehicle ’s
accessory systems. Accessories use
power but do not contribute to
propelling your vehicle. The gauge
separately displays power demand in
kilowatts (kW) for climate and other
accessories. Climate includes the
power being used by high voltage
climate control components such as
the electric A/C compressor. Other
includes all power being used by the
low voltage accessories (cabin fans,
headlights, heated seats, etc.).
• Coolant Temp – Indicates engine
coolant temperature. At normal
operating temperature, the level
indicator will be white and will be in the
normal range (between H and C). If the
engine coolant temperature exceeds
the normal range, the level indicator
will change to red to indicate that the
engine is overheating. Stop your vehicle
as soon as safely possible, turn your
vehicle off and let the engine cool.
• Tach rpm x 1000 — When the gasoline
engine is running, the tachometer
gauge displays the engine speed in
revolutions per minute (RPM). When
your vehicle is operating on battery
power only with the engine off, EV
displays and the tachometer is greyed
out.
Note: The trip data, and average fuel
economy cannot be reset in MyView.
