three different zones to indicate how the vehicle is being
operated in the sense of fuel savings.
NOTE: Driving with the gauge pointer in the 12 O’clock
(ECONOMY) position is the optimal Hybrid location.
Hybrid Gauge

charged during braking or certain driving conditions.

forward in electric mode, Hybrid mode or Fuel Saver mode (MDS)
which are the most fuel efficient modes of operation.
3 — POWER — indicates that the accelerator pedal is being applied
for additional power which is not the most fuel efficient mode of
operation.
