The RANGE display shows how far the computer thinks you can travel with the fuel that is in your tank. The computer does know what not driving conditions will be like for therest of your trip, so the range is estimated based on your recent fuel economy. Therefore, your range reading may change asyour driving habits change. (Going fromcity to highway driving may increase the range reading.) If the range display shows LO, you should stop forfuel as soon as possible. Your computer needs enough data for the RANGE reading to work, however, so it willread LO when your vehicle is brand new (under 25 miles). It may also show LO if your battery has been disconnected.
