Can someone tell me what the icons mean

you mean the green leaves?
they mean how much energy you captured back. I might not be using the correct terms here. One full green leaf=50kwh

 

it's like playing a video game, collect as many as possible green leaves without any impact on your mpg. When your mpg drops to 0, you loose, but since it is impossible with this machine, you are a winner already for gettting a PRIUS.

 

Welcome to PriusChat TorontoSusan,

Exactly what “icons†are you referring to with your “These icons†question?
I see no icons in your post, but maggieddd is saying "green leavesâ€.

My energy screen shows icons of cars when representing the amount of regeneration performed in past five minute increments.

Question for the masses: Do some people have green leave icons, and others have car icons?

 

wait wait, maybe they are little cars, but they are definitely green

I think they are little green cars that resemble leaves. The little cars have vains that leaves have, damn got to run out and check

great thanks, we were both right

 

Maggie your correct with one exception that would be 50wh... no k there

 

my bad, thanks Dave for correcting me

 

And I guess I need to look a little more closely at what the MFD is displaying. IT IS A LEAF CAR! For a 47 year old with the best eyesight his optometrist has ever seen, I’m guessing that means I don’t have the ability to see everything with a quick glance.

Maybe it’s not necessarily an eyesight malady. Just recently, I found the fast forward and rewind buttons for the CD player. B)
Who would have ever thunk they’d be located on the MDF audio screen. :huh:
