Hybrid mode just prevents the SG from going to sleep if the engine has been off for a little while. Anyone who does engine-off at long stops or while coasting should set their fuel type to "hybrid".

Not sure why yours shows 600 with the engine off -- do the other values read correctly (eg. speed? RPM?)
