made by the vehicle is being
converted to electrical energy.
(Regenerated energy)

[ ECO : Shows that the vehicle is being
driven in an Eco-friendly manner.

[ POWER : Shows that the vehicle is
exceeding the Eco-friendly range.
Information
Accordance to the power gauge area the
“EV” indicator comes on or off.

[ The fuel gauge is supplemented by
a low fuel warning light, which will
illuminate when the fuel tank is nearly
empty.

[ On inclines or curves, the fuel gauge
pointer may fluctuate or the low fuel
warning light may come on earlier than
