• Inst. Fuel — Shows instantaneous fuel usage.
• Coolant Temp – Indicates engine coolant temperature. At normal
operating temperature, the level indicator will be white and will be in
the normal range (between H and C). If the engine coolant
temperature exceeds the normal range, the level indicator will change
to red to indicate that the engine is overheating. Stop the vehicle as
soon as safely possible, turn off the vehicle and let the engine cool.
The thermometer indicator next to the gauge will illuminate in blue or
white to indicate the following:
• Blue thermometer : This indicates that the hybrid system is not warm
enough to allow EV operation. The gasoline engine will run
continuously when the indicator is blue. During silent key start mode,
the thermometer indicator will be blue, but the gasoline engine will
not run. This is the result of the vehicle computer allowing the engine
to be cooler during the silent key start period. This is normal
operation and does not indicate a problem with your vehicle. After the
first engine start the indicator will turn white when the gasoline
engine is warm enough to turn off.
• White thermometer : This indicates that the hybrid system is warm
enough to allow EV operation. If the vehicle operates on battery
power long enough, it is possible that the gasoline engine may need to
run to keep the system warm. In this case, the thermometer indicator
will revert back to blue.
Note: Trip data, average fuel economy and average speed cannot be
