Energy flow for various operating modes can be displayed on the navigation system monitor. To access the Energy Flow screen, you must agree to the start-up screen. The Energy Flow display varies, depending on the condition of the vehicle. The graphic does not reflect the actual motion of the vehicle. Fuel consumption in the past 30 minutes: Fuel consumption in the past 30 minutes is displayed. Current fuel consumption Latest column : The current fuel consumption is calculated and displayed based on distance and fuel consumption.

NOTE: Information shown in the yellow column means current within 5 minutes and infor- mation shown in the blue columns means past more than 5 minutes. The screen must be screen. The displayed values on the screen indicate gen- eral driving conditions.

Accuracy varies with driv- ing habits and road conditions. Regenerated energy in the past 30 minutes: The regenerated energy in the past 30 min- utes is indicated with symbols. One symbol indicates 50 watt hours. The energy of 50 watt hours illuminates a 50 watt bulb for an hour. Do not keep the transmission position to start the Hybrid System.
