After making your selection
• Some features offer more information by pressing the OK button.
• You can also hold
OK to reset your fuel economy and trip 1 and 2.
Fuel Economy
An Instant Fuel Economy gauge is provided
along with average fuel economy. Average
fuel economy is continuously averaged
since the last reset.
Hybrid features:
• When the gasoline engine is off the
instant fuel economy gauge is replaced
with a electric driving message.
• For Plug-in vehicles, both electric only
and hybrid operation are included in
the calculation. More electric only
driving will result in greater average fuel
economy.
While viewing this screen you can reset
your average fuel economy by pressing and
holding
OK.
Trip 1 and 2
Provides trip timer, trip average fuel
economy and total trip distance traveled.
For hybrid vehicles, the trip also shows the
distance traveled on electric power only. Hybrid Information
(If Equipped)
This Trip
Provides trip timer, trip average fuel
economy, total trip distance traveled, and
distance traveled on electric power only
with the engine off. If the gasoline engine
has not turned on during the trip then trip
average fuel economy is not shown. This
Trip automatically resets each time you
start your vehicle.
EV Coach
EV Coach can help you to get the most out
of your vehicle ’s electric driving and
regenerative braking capabilities.
When you are accelerating or maintaining
speed you will see a blue or white solid bar
indicating vehicle power. You may also see
a blue rectangular box which shows the
power level at which the engine will turn
on.

•
When your power level is within the box
the color of the bar will be blue. This
means you are in Electric operation and
the engine is off.
• When your power level is outside of the
box the color of the bar will be white.
This means you are in Hybrid operation
with a combination of the electric
motor and the engine providing vehicle
power.
When you are decelerating with either your
foot off the accelerator pedal or on the
brake pedal you will see a green or white
solid bar indicating the power being used
to slow down the vehicle. You may also
see a green rectangular box which shows
the amount of power that can be
recaptured by the regenerative braking
system and returned to the high voltage
battery.
• When your power level is completely
within the box the color of the bar will
be all green. This means that the
regenerative braking system is being
used to efficiently slow the vehicle
down and return the maximum
percentage of energy to the high
voltage battery.
• When your power level is outside of the
green box then the bar will be white.
This means that both the regenerative
braking system and conventional
braking system are being used.
Electric Efficiency
Note: This feature applies to Plug-in
vehicles only.
This screen shows your average driving
distance per kWh of electricity used on
your plug-in hybrid vehicle. The value is
calculated only when your available
electric range is being used and the
gasoline engine is off. Distance per full charge is also shown. This
is an estimate of the electric range you
would have if you plugged in and fully
charged your vehicle right now. The higher
your electric efficiency, the higher your
distance per full charge.
Your electric efficiency is affected by your
driving style and route, climate control use,
outside temperature and other factors.
Best efficiency is achieved in mild ambient
temperatures with mild to moderate
acceleration and braking, moderate speeds
and low climate control usage.
INFORMATION MESSAGES
Depending on your vehicle options and
instrument cluster type, not all messages
display or are available.
Note:
The system abbreviates or shortens
certain messages. Press the OK button to acknowledge and
remove some messages from the
information display. The system removes
other messages after a short time.
You need to confirm certain messages
before you can access the menus.

•
Keep the tires properly inflated and
only use the recommended size.
• Aggressive driving increases the
amount of energy required to move
your vehicle. In general, you can
achieve better fuel economy with mild
to moderate acceleration and
deceleration. Moderate braking is
particularly important since it allows
you to maximize the energy captured
by the regenerative braking system.
Additional Tips:
• Do not carry extra loads.
• Be mindful of adding external
accessories that may increase
aerodynamic drag.
• Observe posted speed limits.
• Perform all scheduled maintenance.
• There is no need to wait for your engine
to warm up. The vehicle is ready to
drive immediately after starting.
PLUG-IN HYBRID VEHICLE
OPERATION
Plug in your vehicle regularly for optimal
use of the high voltage battery's
electric-only range capability. Charging
your vehicle adds electrical energy. This
energy propels the vehicle.
You can see your estimated electric-only
driving range in blue next to the gasoline
range on the information display.
The system maximizes the use of
electric-only operation in Normal drive
mode. System conditions could require
engine operation, however, the system
uses the available electric range whenever
possible. When your electric-only range reaches
zero, the powertrain system switches to
hybrid operation. This means that you have
depleted the energy you gained from
plugging in and charging your vehicle. Both
the gasoline engine and electric motor
power your vehicle and maximize fuel
economy during hybrid operation. You
receive some electric-only driving with
hybrid operation as the powertrain system
maintains the high voltage battery charge
within functional limits.
Electric Vehicle (EV) Modes
Your vehicle contains selectable electric
vehicle (EV) modes. Press the button on
the center console to change the mode.
EV Now and EV Later modes are only
available when you have electric-only
driving range available.
Note:
EV mode availability also depends
on the state of the selectable drive mode
system.
Auto EV This mode provides an
automatic use of high voltage
battery power during the drive,
staying in electric mode when possible and
running the engine when needed.

EV Now
This mode provides an electric
only driving experience. Do not
use EV Now when towing a
trailer. The electric drive system is not
designed for towing. An EV Now
information on demand screen appears.
This screen allows you to enable your
engine while in EV Now mode.
Your vehicle could accelerate slower and
the top speed could be lower than when
in Auto EV mode.
You can enable your engine at any time by
using one of the following methods:
• Press the OK button on the steering
wheel while viewing the EV Now
information on demand screen. Your
vehicle enables the engine as needed
and returns to EV Now mode when no
longer needed.
• Fully press the accelerator pedal. A
pop-up message appears. Press the
OK button on the steering wheel to
enable the engine. When the engine is
no longer needed, your vehicle returns
to EV Now. The message disappears if
you release the accelerator pedal.
• Press the EV button. This exits EV Now
mode and permits engine operation.
To return to EV Now mode, select it
again using the EV button.
Your vehicle could enter Engine Enabled
mode if system conditions require it. A
message displays if this occurs. This is a
normal function of the system and your
vehicle returns to EV Now mode when
possible.
When you enable EV Now mode, a blue EV
Now icon appears in the information
display. If your vehicle is in Engine Enabled
mode, the EV Now icon is amber. EV Now
exits when your available electric range
reaches zero. EV Later In EV Later, your vehicle runs on
the engine as needed and saves
most of the available electric
range for later use in Auto EV or EV Now
mode.
For example, your initial drive is at high
speeds on open roads, but later your drive
is at low speeds in an urban area where
electric only driving is most efficient. In this
case, you can select EV Later for the higher
speed portion of your trip and then select
Auto EV or EV Now for the urban portion.
When you enable EV Later, a white EV
Later icon appears in the information
display. EV Later resets to Auto EV when
you switch off your vehicle. You may select
EV Later again using the EV button during
your next drive.
When you select EV Later with the vehicle
fully charged or near fully charged, the
battery uses some electric-only driving
range to discharge the battery, and allows
for full operation of the regenerative
braking system.
EV Charge This mode uses your vehicle's
engine to charge the high voltage
battery versus plugging the
vehicle into a utility grid.
The electric range gained through EV
Charge allows you to switch to Auto EV or
EV Now for full electric operation later in
your drive. The battery cannot completely
charge to 100% when in EV Charge mode.
This is to allow for full operation of the
regenerative braking system. When the
battery reaches its EV Charge limit, the
vehicle remains in EV Charge mode and
maintains that charge level, until you select
another EV Mode, or until you switch the
vehicle off.

zones solidly lit up in a blue color for 30
seconds before turning off. For example, if
charging stops at 70 percent, then the
bottom three zones light up solidly to
indicate a battery charge level of at least
60 percent but less than 80 percent.
Charging stops when complete or when
paused due to preferred charge settings or
charge station actions.
Note: If the charge status indicator does
not light up or pulse after plugging in, please
verify that the charge port light setting is On.
If you do not wish to have the charge status
indicator light up at all while charging, then
you can switch it Off. See charge port light
under vehicle settings on your touchscreen.

You can identify charging faults by
the color orange on the charge status
indicator. Faults can occur within the vehicle
charging system or outside the vehicle, such
as with the charge cord, charge station or
electrical supply.
Note: If the system detects a fault in the
vehicle charging system at any point in a
charge cycle, the entire charge status
indicator lights up solidly in an orange color
for 30 seconds and then turns off. If this
happens, unplug the charging coupler and
then plug it back into the charge port
receptacle. If the problem persists, have
your vehicle checked as soon as possible.
Note: If the system detects a fault outside
the vehicle, such as with the charge station
or charge cord, the entire charge status
indicator flashes continuously for 30
seconds and then turns off. If this happens,
check the charge cord and the charge
station or electrical supply.
