HONDA 2013 Insight - Manual (Page 88)

The IMA battery level indicator
shows you the state of charge of
the battery for the Integrated
Motor Assist (IMA). This battery is
recharged and discharged by the
IMA motor depending on the
driving conditions. The position of the battery level
reading shows the state of charge of
the IMA battery. When the battery
level reading is high, the IMA
battery is well charged. There are
seven positions (Level 0-Level 6) of
the battery level reading. The battery level reading may drop
near the bottom under driving
conditions that require IMA motor
assistance for a long time, such as
prolonged acceleration or climbing a
long hill.
The IMA motor will recharge the
battery as you continue driving.
