5-30 Instruments and Controls Drive Cycle Summary (eAssist Only): Displays the distance traveled and the fuel economy for that trip. Top Consumers: Displays the top four vehicle energy consumers, along with their total fuel consumption. Economy Trend: Displays history of the Average Fuel Economy from the last 50 km (30 miles). Each bar represents about 5 km (3 miles) of driving. The fuel economy will range from 0 - 15 L/100 km (0 - 50 mpg). During driving the bars will shift to always reflect the most recent distance on the right side. This display cannot be reset. ECO Index: The bar graph on the left hand side provides feedback on the efficiency of current driving behavior. The graph shows a percentage value that is based on current fuel consumption compared to what is expected from the vehicle with good and bad driving habits. Each box represents 10%, with all boxes filled being 100%. More economical driving will result in being in the ECO box. Instantaneous Fuel Economy is also shown on right hand side. This display cannot be reset. Maintenance Due: This display shows how many kilometers (miles) until the next maintenance is needed. Speed Limit: Displays sign information, which comes from a roadway database in the onboard navigation. Following Distance/Gap Setting: Used to select the alert timing for the Forward Collision Alert (FCA) and the gap for the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC). See Forward Collision Alert (FCA) System on page 9-51 and Adaptive Cruise Control on page 9-39. Driver Efficiency Gauge (eAssist Only): Assists in driving efficiently and will vary based on driver input. To maximize efficiency, keep the leaf in the solid green zone in the center of the gauge. The gauge moves down when braking and up when accelerating. When either is done aggressively, the vehicle is being driven less efficiently and the gauge will move further from the center Head-Up Display (HUD) { Warning If the HUD image is too bright or too high in your field of view, it may take you more time to see things you need to see when it is dark outside. Be sure to keep the HUD image dim and placed low in your field of view.
