184 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL Compass/Temperature/Audio Press and release the EVIC button to display one of eight compass headings to indicate the direction the vehicle is facing, the outside temperature and the current radio station. For additional information regarding the compass, refer to "Personal Settings (Customer Programmable Features)" in this section. Average Fuel Economy Shows the average fuel economy since the last reset. When the fuel economy is reset, the display will read "RESET" or show dashes for two seconds. Then, the history information will be erased, and the averaging will continue from the last fuel reading before the reset. Distance To Empty (DTE) Shows the estimated distance that can be travelled with the fuel remaining in the tank. This estimated distance is determined by a weighted average of the instantaneous and average fuel economy, according to the current fuel tank level. This is not resettable. NOTE: Significant changes in driving style or vehicle loading will greatly affect the actual drivable distance of the vehicle, regardless of the DTE displayed value. When the DTE value is less than 30 miles (48 km) estimated driving distance, the DTE display will change to a text display of ЉLOW FUELЉ. This display will continue until the vehicle runs out of fuel. Adding a significant amount of fuel to the vehicle will turn off the ЉLOW FUELЉ text and a new DTE value will be displayed, based on the current values in the DTE calculation and the current fuel tank level.
