uuGauges and Driver Information Interface uGauges
Instrument Panel
The meter shows the ratio between the
energy which has been consumed by the
climate control system ( CLIMATE) and the
energy which has been consumed by the
motor ( DRIVE).
As the climate control system consumes more
power, bars in the CLIMATE section increase
as bars in the DRIVE section decrease.
Likewise, as the motor consumes more power,
bars in the DRIVE section increase as bars in
the CLIMATE section decrease.
■Electricity Consumption Indicator (ENERGY USAGE)1Electricity Consumption Indicator (ENERGY USAGE)
Every few minutes the electricity consumption
indicator adjusts the readi ngs by one bar at a time.
If the energy consumptio n ratio is minimal, the
readings may not change.
If climate control system use is low, the CLIMATE
section may not display any bars.

Shows the estimated distance you can travel on the remaining power. This estimate
is based on the energy consumption of your previous trips and the remaining charge
of the high voltage battery. You can increase the driving range by turning
off the climate control system. The distance
displayed under “With OFF” is the
additional estimated distance that the vehicle
can drive if the climat e control system is
turned off.
Shows the average energy consumption for
the last three driving cy cles (1 – 3), and the
current driving cycle (0) in miles/kWh or
km/kWh.
Each time you set the power mode to ON, the
display is updated, and the oldest record is
deleted.
