•Idling: The vehicle is running and in park(P). The engine and, or the high voltagebattery are on.
•Electric driving: The vehicle is runningand in drive (D) or neutral (N). The highvoltage battery provides power to thewheels.
•Hybrid driving: The vehicle is running andin drive (D) or neutral (N). The engine andthe high voltage battery provide powerto the wheels.
•Regenerative braking: The vehicle isrunning in drive (D) and is slowing down.The regenerative braking systemcaptures power and sends it back to thehigh voltage battery.
•Charging: The vehicle is plugged in andthe high voltage battery is being charged.
Engine On Due To
The following conditions help explain whythe engine is on and what you can do toallow all electric operation.
•Drive power: The engine is on due toaccelerator pedal pressure or speedcontrol activation. Reduce pressure onthe accelerator pedal or switch off thespeed control to return to full electricmode.
•High speed: The engine is on becausethe vehicle speed exceeds the level forfull electric operation. Reduce the speedto return to electric operation.
•Heater setting: The engine is on becauseof the heater setting. Reduce or switchoff the heater setting to return to electricoperation.
•Neutral gear: The engine is on becausethe vehicle is in neutral (N). Shift out ofneutral gear to return to electricoperation.
•Engine cold: The engine is on becauseit is cold. The vehicle returns to electricoperation once the engine is sufficientlywarm.
•Battery charging: The engine is on tocharge the high voltage battery. Thevehicle returns to electric operation oncethe battery is sufficiently charged.
•Low gear: The engine is on because thevehicle is in low (L). Shift out of low (L) toreturn to electric operation.
•Normal operation: The engine is on tooptimize vehicle operation. The vehiclereturns to electric operation whenpossible.
•Low use: The engine is on to maintainengine oil quality. The vehicle returns toelectric operation when low engine usemode is complete. See How Does LowEngine Use Mode Work (page 216).
•Engine braking active: The engine is onto provide increased powertrain braking.This can occur when you turn on thegrade assist feature, when speed controlis on or when driving with your foot offthe accelerator pedal. Turning off gradeassist or speed control may allow thevehicle to return to electric operation.
