Fuel Economy Gage

This gage shows when the vehicle is operating at a fuel
efficient point.
By modifying driving behavior to increase the economy
time during driving, fuel mileage will be improved.
See Fuel Economy Gage on page 45.
Automatic Engine Start/Stop Feature
Start the engine as you would any other engine.
See Starting the Engine in the owner manual for more
information on starting. The hybrid system provides
very quiet engine starting. If pulling a trailer with trailer
brakes, see Towing a Trailer
on page 58
for more
information.
Auto Stop
The vehicle has an Auto Stop feature. After a
successful engine start, the engine may turn off and
operate in the Auto Stop mode.
Keep your foot firmly on the brake pedal until you are
ready for the vehicle to move.
Engine OFF and AUTO STOP modes are indicated on
the tachometer display. When the tachometer needle
indicates OFF, the engine is not running and will remain
off until the ignition key is placed in the START position
or a remote vehicle start is performed. When the
tachometer needle indicates AUTO STOP, the hybrid
system is on, the engine is not running, but may Auto
Start at any time without notice. See Tachometer
on
page 44
for more information.
