Trip/Fuel Display Menu Items 3 (Trip/Fuel): The following display menu items can be displayed by pressing the trip/fuel button: TRIP A or TRIP B These displays show the current distance traveled since the last reset for each trip odometer in either kilometers (km) or miles (mi). Both odometers can be used at the same time. Each trip odometer can be reset to zero separately by pressing and holding the set/reset button for a few seconds while the desired trip odometer is displayed. Once the range drops below an estimated 64 km (40 miles) remaining, the display will show FUEL RANGE LOW. If your vehicle is low on fuel, the FUEL LEVEL LOW message will be displayed. See "FUEL LEVEL LOW" under DIC Warnings and Messages on page 4-67 for more information. AVERAGE ECONOMY (AFE) This display shows the approximate average liters per 100 kilometers (L/100 km) or miles per gallon (mpg). This number is calculated based on the number of L/100 km (mpg) recorded since the last time this display was reset. To reset this display, press the set/reset button. The display will return to zero. FUEL RANGE This display shows the approximate number of remaining kilometers (km) or miles (mi) you can drive without refilling the fuel tank. This estimate is based on the current driving conditions and will change if the driving conditions change. For example, if you are driving in traffic and making frequent stops, the display may read one number, but if you enter the freeway, the number may change even though you still have the same amount of fuel in the fuel tank. This is because different driving conditions produce different fuel economies. Generally, freeway driving produces better fuel economy than city driving. INST (Instantaneous) ECONOMY (IFE) This display shows the current fuel economy in either liters per 100 kilometers (L/100 km) or miles per gallon (mpg). This number reflects only the fuel economy that the vehicle has right now and will change frequently as driving conditions change. Unlike average economy, this display cannot be reset. FUEL USED This display shows the number of liters (L) or gallons (gal) of fuel used since the last reset of this display. To reset this display, press the set/reset button. The display will return to zero. 4-63
