Energy Flow Diagram
"Energy Flow" refers to the direction that energy is moving
through your vehicle's drivetrain. While driving, diagrams
in your multifunction and touchscreen displays will show
one of five "energy modes," depending on the direction
of the energy flow.
Stationary vehicle mode:
No energy flow.
Charge mode:
From wheels to battery.
Electric motor mode:
From battery to wheels.
Engine mode:
From gas engine to wheels (and to battery,
depending on speed and battery charge level).
Boost mode:
From combustion engine and battery to
wheels.
Important Safety Instructions and Warnings which you must read, are listed on the last panel under HYBRID DRIVE.
Using the multifunction display
Press the "Menu" button on the right side of the
steering wheel repeatedly until you see the energy
flow diagram.
Three images will be displayed, representing the gas
engine, drivetrain, and battery. Arrows between the
icons will indicate the direction of the energy flow.
To change the default Premium VIII
display
Press the SETUP hard key, then press Vehicle soft key.
If "Initial display: Hybrid" is checked, the initial display will
be the vehicle's energy flow. If it is unchecked, the display
will default to the most recently viewed setting.
