Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine The RANGE display shows how far the computer thinks you can travel
with the fuel that is in your tank. The computer does not know what
driving conditions will be like for the rest of your trip, so the range is
estimated based on your recent fuel economy. Therefore, your range
reading
may change as your driving habits change. (Going from city to
highway driving may increase the range reading.)
If the range display shows LO, you should stop for fuel as soon as
possible.
Your computer needs enough data
for the RANGE reading to work,
however,
so it will read LO when your vehicle is brand new (under
25 miles). It may also show LO if your battery has been disconnected.
Driver Information Center
Your Driver Information Center (DTC) display gives you the status of
many of your vehicle’s systems. The DTC is used to display driver
selectable information and warninglstatus messages.
