76 Instruments and Controls
Compass
The vehicle has a compass display in the
instrument cluster above the speedometer.
The compass receives its heading and other
information from the Global Positioning
System (GPS) antenna and vehicle speed
information.
The compass system has automatic
calibration and zone adjustment features.
Avoid covering the GPS antenna for long
periods of time with objects that may
interfere with the antenna's ability to
receive a satellite signal. The compass
system is designed to operate for a certain
number of miles or degrees of turn before
needing a signal from the GPS satellites. The
compass system will automatically
determine when a GPS signal is restored and
provide a heading.

Warning Lights, Gauges, and
Indicators
Warning lights and gauges can signal that
something is wrong before it becomes
serious enough to cause an expensive repair
or replacement. Paying attention to the
warning lights and gauges could prevent
injury.
Some warning lights come on briefly when
the propulsion system is started to indicate
they are working. When one of the warning
lights comes on and stays on while driving,
or when one of the gauges shows there
may be a problem, check the section that
explains what to do. Waiting to do repairs
can be costly and even dangerous.

information that includes electric range,
charging, odometer, and battery status. This
happens upon entry when the driver door is
opened, before starting the vehicle. This
preview will dismiss after starting the

Trip Odometer
The trip odometer shows how far the
vehicle has been driven since the trip
odometer was last reset.
The trip odometer is accessed and reset
through the Driver Information Center (DIC).
SeeDriver Information Center (DIC) 099.
Battery Gauge (High Voltage)
Enhanced Battery Gauge
This displays the high voltage battery state
of charge. The value in the center is an
estimate of how far the vehicle can be
driven on the remaining charge based on
driving habits and conditions learned over
several days. The Max and Min values above and below
the display indicate the longest and shortest
possible range as estimated from current
vehicle conditions and climate settings.
The mileage estimate and Max and Min
numbers are affected by climate control
system usage. Estimated range may increase
or decrease based on changes in climate
control energy consumption.
A trend bar on the far left estimates how
recent driving habits, conditions, and climate
settings are affecting the range prediction.
When the high voltage battery state of
charge is very low, the estimated range
value in the center will change to Low. Max
and Min ranges will no longer be displayed.
Additional alerts may display and a sound
may also be heard at low state of charge.
