RESET
Press this control to reset:
• warnings
• average fuel economy
• trip odometers
The other selectable features are unaffected by pressing RESET.
DTE/ECON
• Press the DTE/ECON control
once to display approximately
how far you can drive before
running out of fuel, or the
distance to empty (DTE). To ensure accuracy, turn the ignition OFF
when you fill the tank.
• Press the DTE/ECON control a second time to display the average fuel
economy in liters/100 kilometers or miles/gallon, based on distance
traveled and rate of fuel used information.
• To reset this feature, press the
RESET control while average fuel
economy is displayed (while you
are driving).
The DTE function will flash for 5 seconds and sound a tone for 1 second
when you have approximately:
• 40 km (25 miles)
• 16 km (10 miles)
DTE is calculated using a running average fuel economy initialized by the
factory. This value is not the same as the average fuel economy display.
The running average fuel economy is based on more than 800 kilometers
(500 miles) of driving history, and is reinitialized if the battery is
disconnected.
If the FUEL LEVEL ERROR message is displayed, there is a problem
with the fuel indication system and you should contact your dealer for
service as soon as possible.
