Gauges and Meters
Speedometer/ECO guide
The speedometer indicates the
speed of the vehicle and is calibrated
in miles per hour (mph) and/or kilo-
meters per hour (km/h).The speedometer is displayed differ-
ently according to the selected drive
mode in the Drive Mode Integrated
Control System.
For more information, refer to
“Drive Mode Integrated Control
System” in chapter 5.
Power/Charge gauge
The Power/Charge gauge shows the
energy consumption rate of the vehi-
cle and the charge/discharge status
of the regenerative brakes.
It shows the energy consumption rate
of the vehicle when driving uphill or
accelerating. The more electric ener-
gy is used, the higher the gauge level.

It shows the charging status of the
battery when it is being charged by
the regenerative brakes (decelerat-
ing or driving on a downhill road).
The more electric energy is charged,
the lower the gauge level.State of Charge (SOC) gauge for
high voltage battery
The SOC gauge shows the charging
status of the high voltage battery.
"L (Low)" position on the indicator
indicates that there is not enough
energy in the high voltage battery. "H
(High)" position indicates that the
driving battery is fully charged.
When driving on highways or motor-
ways, make sure to check in advance
if the driving battery is charged
enough.When there are 4~5 gauge bars
(near the "L (Low)" area) on the SOC
gauge, the warning lamp turns ON to
alert you of the battery level.
When the warning lamp turns ON,
the vehicle can drive an additional
18~25 miles (30~40 km) depending
on the driving speed, heater/air con-
ditioner, weather, driving style, and
other factors. Charging is required.

When the high voltage battery
level is low, the power down warn-
ing illuminates and the power out-
put from the vehicle is limited.
Charge the battery immediately
since your vehicle may not drive
uphill or skid on a slope with the
warning light ON.
Odometer
The odometer indicates the total dis-
tance that the vehicle has been driv-
en and should be used to determine
when periodic maintenance should
be performed.
Distance to Empty
The distance to empty is the esti-
mated distance the vehicle can be
driven with remaining level of the
high voltage battery.
For more information, refer to
"Distance to Empty" in the
Electric Vehicle Guide.
The distance to empty is displayed
differently according to the select-
ed drive mode in the Drive Mode
Integrated Control System.
For more information, refer to
"Drive Mode Integrated Control
System" in chapter 5.
