B. Electric Motor represents the electric motor. The higher the motor
power is, the larger the circle around this node. Any time the vehicle is
ready to be driven, the motor node illuminates.

C. Battery-to-motor flow shows the direction of power flow between
the high-voltage battery and the electric motor. Flow toward the motor
indicates the battery is providing power to accelerate the vehicle
(discharging the battery). Flow toward the battery indicates the electric
motor is providing power to the battery (charging the battery).

Note: The battery-to-motor flow includes battery power the vehicle is
using for acceleration. It does not include energy the vehicle is using for
accessories (such as air conditioning, headlights and radio). This screen
displays accessories and climate usage separately.

D. Plug appears when you plug your vehicle into the wall. When
charging the high voltage battery from the wall, you can see flow from
the plug to the battery on the screen.
Accessories indicates electrical power demands from your vehicle’s

accessory systems. Accessories use power but do not contribute to
making the vehicle move. The power flow displays power usage from
the climate control system and other accessories separately.

E. Other includes all power usage from the low voltage accessories such
as the climate control fan, headlights and heated seats. The higher the
power usage is from these accessories, the larger the circle around the
node. This node illuminates anytime the vehicle is on since there is
always some low level power in use.

F. Climate includes the power usage from the high-voltage climate
control components such as the electric A/C compressor and the electric
heater. The higher the power usage is from these components, the larger
the circle around this node.

Note: The climate control system may determine A/C is necessary even
when you turn it off. In this case, you may see some climate power when
the A/C is off.

G. High voltage battery power represents your high-voltage battery.
A circle illuminates around the node when the high-voltage battery is
receiving power from regenerative braking or external charging (when
you plug it in). The higher the power going into the high-voltage battery,
the larger the circle around this node.

H. Drive power represents the power going to the wheels. The higher
the wheel power is, the larger the circle around this node.
