Fuel Gauge
When the power button is on, the
fuel gauge indicates about how
much fuel is left in the tank.
There is an arrow near the fuel
gauge pointing to the side of the
vehicle the fuel door is on.
When the indicator nears empty, the
low fuel light comes on. There still is
a little fuel left, but the vehicle
should be refueled soon.Here are some things that owners
ask about. None of these show a
problem with the fuel gauge:
.
At the service station, the fuel
pump shuts off before the gauge
reads full.
. It takes a little more or less fuel
to fill up than the gauge
indicated. For example, the
gauge may have indicated the
tank was half full, but it actually
took a little more or less than
half the tank's capacity to fill
the tank.
. The gauge takes a few seconds
to stabilize after the vehicle is
turned on, and goes back to
empty when the vehicle is
turned off.
Driver Efficiency Gauge
This gauge appears on the left side
of the display in the Enhanced
layout.
This gauge is a guide for efficient
driving. Keep the ball green and in
the center of the gauge to help
maximize EV range and fuel
economy.
See Driving for Better Energy
Efficiency 027.
Accel : If the ball turns yellow and
travels above the center of the
gauge, acceleration is too
aggressive to optimize efficiency.
