Energy Usage
The Energy Usage screen displays
information for the total of all drive
cycles since the last time the high
voltage battery was fully charged.
This includes distance traveled in
Electric Mode, distance traveled in
Extended Range Mode, total
distance traveled, electric energy
used from the battery, total fuel
used, and average fuel economy.
There are maximum limits to some
of the values that can be displayed.
When these values are replaced
with dashes, the value limits have
been reached. To reset these
values, the high voltage battery will
need to be fully recharged. The
circle graph also represents
the percentage of distance traveled
using Electric Mode versus
Extended Range Mode. The
Lifetime Fuel Economy is a total
over the life of the vehicle and can
only be reset by the dealer.
Instruments and Controls
The Energy Usage information will
also appear automatically on power
off when Retained Accessory Power
is active. This automatic pop-up can
be disabled through vehicle
personalization. See Energy
