Fuel And Oil Refresh Mode
Since it is possible to operate this vehicle for extended
periods of time without running the gas engine, the fuel
within the vehicle’s fuel tank can become stale or the
engine oil’s lubricating properties can be reduced. To
prevent engine and/or fuel system damage due to stale
fuel, as well as, maintaining internal engine lubrication,
this vehicle is equipped with a “Fuel and Oil Refresh
Mode”.
168 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL

The vehicle will automatically enter into the Fuel and Oil
Refresh Mode to minimize potential for stale fuel, and to
ensure lubrication of internal engine components. When
operating in this mode, the gas engine will run to provide
vehicle propulsion (electric only operation is inhibited). A
message will be displayed in the instrument cluster when-
ever Fuel and Oil Refresh Mode is active.
The vehicle will automatically exit the Fuel and Oil Refresh
Mode when conditions have been satisfied. If the vehicle
enters Fuel and Oil Refresh Mode, due to fuel which has
been in the fuel tank for a long period of time (becoming
stale fuel), the engine will run whenever the vehicle is
operational (no electric only operation) until the low fuel
level warning is activated. It is also possible to exit the Fuel
and Oil Refresh Mode sooner by adding a minimum of 4
gallons of new fuel to the vehicle’s fuel tank.
NOTE:If the vehicle enters Fuel and Oil Refresh Mode to
maintain engine lubrication, adding fuel will not exit the
mode sooner. If the vehicle enters Fuel and Oil Refresh Mode to maintain
engine lubrication properties, the engine may run for a
period of up to 20 minutes when fully warm whenever the
vehicle is operational (no electric only operation). If the
vehicle is shut down before conditions to exit the refresh
mode have been satisfied, the engine may run for addi-
tional time on subsequent trips.
NOTE:
Frequent short trips at low ambient temperature
conditions are more likely to trigger the lubrication based
mode.
