Power Flow Display

The Power Flow display, located
on the instrument panel’s Driver
Information Center or on the audio
system color display (if equipped),
 indicates the  energy flow direction,
the high-voltage battery charge
level, and the current eAssist oper-
ating mode. These modes include:
• Engine Idle – The vehicle is

stopped and the engine is
 running.

• Auto Stop – The vehicle is stopped, the engine has been automatically turned off and is

ready to automatically restart when needed.

• Engine Power – The engine is providing the primary drive power for the vehicle.
• Hybrid Power – The eAssist electric motor is providing significant electrical assist to

the engine.

• Battery Charging – The eAssist electric motor is charging the high-voltage battery while

the vehicle is slowing down.

See Instruments and Controls in your Owner Manual.

Driver Efficiency Gauge

The efficiency gauge assists you in driving efficiently. To maximize efficiency, attempt to
keep the pointer in the solid green zone in the middle of the gauge. The gauge moves to
the left when braking and to the right when accelerating. When either is done aggressively,
it is less efficient and the gauge will move further away from the center. The eAssist
 system’s ability to capture energy while the vehicle is slowing down makes decelerating
very important for efficiency.

See Instruments and Controls in your Owner Manual.

Climate Control Settings

• Press the 

Air Conditioning

button until the button indicator is green to select the

eco air conditioning setting for maximum efficiency. This setting will maximize the
 frequency and duration of Auto Stops while still providing cabin comfort when the
 vehicle is in an Auto Stop.

• Press the 

Air Conditioning

button until the button indicator is blue to select the

comfort air conditioning setting for maximum cabin comfort. Auto Stops will be reduced
in both frequency and duration.

See Climate Controls in your Owner Manual.
