The speed indicator in the trip computer indicates the reference speed. The actual speed indicated by the speedometer (combination meter) may differ from the one in the trip computer. by road or engine heat, wind directions and other driving conditions. The display may differ from the actual ambient temperature or the temperature displayed on various signs or billboards. turned OFF may continue to be displayed. ¼ When driving uphill or rounding curves, the fuel in the tank shifts, which may momentarily change the display. Distance to empty (dte - mls or km) The distance to empty (dte) mode provides you with an estimation of the distance that can be driven before refueling. The dte is constantly being calculated, based on the amount of fuel in the fuel tank and the actual fuel consumption. The display is updated every 30 seconds. The dte mode includes a low range warning feature: when the fuel level is low, the dte mode is automatically selected and the digits blink in order to draw the driver's attention. Press the A mode switch k if you wish to return to the mode that was selected before the warning occurred. The dte indicator will remain blinking until the vehicle is refueled.

Push A the mode switch k if you wish to return to the mode that was selected before the warning occurred. The ICY indicator will continue blinking as long as the temperature remains below 39°F (4°C).
