displayed in the text window.
Driving distance on current fuel reserve
Average fuel consumption
Current fuel consumption
Average speed
NOTE: Warning messages from the car's monitoring systems will override the trip computer function. If a warning
message is displayed in the text window while you are using the trip computer, you must acknowledge the message
by pressing button A. Press button A again to return to the trip computer function.

The trip computer can be reset (current data will be erased from system memory) by pressing RESET (button C).
Trip computer functions
Driving distance on current fuel reserve This function shows the approximate distance that can be driven on the fuel
remaining in the tank. This calculation is based on average fuel consumption during the last 12 miles (20 km) of
driving and the amount of fuel remaining in the tank when the reading was taken.
When the driving distance on current fuel reserve is less than 12 miles (20 km), "----" will be displayed in the text
window.

This value indicates fuel consumption since the last time the trip computer was reset (by pressing RESET, button C).
When the engine is switched off, information on fuel consumption is stored and remains in system memory until the
RESET (button C) is pressed again.
Current fuel consumption
This value indicates the current fuel consumption, based on readings taken once per second. When the car is not
moving, "----" will be displayed.
Average speed
This value indicates average speed since the last time the trip computer was reset (by pressing RESET, button C).
When the engine is switched off, information on average speed is stored and remains in system memory until the
RESET (button C) is pressed again.
pg. 44 Cruise control
Cruise control
The cruise control panel is located on the left side of the steering wheel hub.
Engaging cruise control/ setting speed
Press the CRUISE button
Press + or - to set the current speed
Increase or decrease speed as desired
NOTE: Cruise control will not function at speeds below 22 mph (35 km/ h).
Braking
Cruise control is automatically disengaged when the brake pedal is depressed. The currently set speed is stored in
memory. Quickly pressing resume
will return the car to the previously set speed.
Acceleration
Momentary acceleration, such as when passing another car, does not affect cruise control operation. The car will
automati- cally return to the previously set speed when you release the accelerator pedal.
When the cruise control is already engaged, the car's speed can be increased or decreased by holding down + or -
until the car reaches the desired speed. One short press on either symbol corresponds to a speed change of
approximately 1 mph (1.6 km/ h).
Disengaging cruise control
Cruise control can also be disengaged by:
Pressing the CRUISE button.
Putting the gear selector in (N) eutral.
NOTE: Cruise control is automatically disen- gaged if the engine is switched off, if the gear selector is placed in (N)
eutral, if the car's speed drops to under 70% of the currently set speed or if the wheels start to spin.

pg. 130 General information
Economical driving conserves natural resources
Better driving economy may be obtained by thinking ahead, avoiding rapid starts and stops and adjusting the speed of
your vehicle to immediate traffic conditions. Observe the following rules:
Bring the engine to normal operating temperature as soon as possible by driving with a light foot on the accel-
erator pedal for the first few minutes of operation. A cold engine uses more fuel and is subject to increased wear.
Whenever possible, avoid using the car for driving short distances. This does not allow the engine to reach normal
operating temperature.
Drive carefully and avoid rapid acceler- ation and hard braking.
Do not exceed posted speed limits.
Avoid carrying unnecessary items (extra load) in the car.
Maintain correct tire pressure. Check tire pressure regularly (when tires are cold).
Remove snow tires when threat of snow or ice has ended.
Note that roof racks, ski racks, etc, increase air resistance and also fuel consumption.
Avoid using automatic transmission kickdown feature unless necessary.
However, at higher driving speeds, fuel consumption will be lower with the air conditioning on and the windows
closed than with the air conditioning off and the windows open.
Using the onboard trip computer's fuel consumption modes can help you learn how to drive more economically.
Other factors that decrease gas mileage are:
Worn or dirty spark plugs
Incorrect spark plug gap
Dirty air cleaner
Dirty engine oil and clogged oil filter
Dragging brakes
Incorrect front end alignment Some of the above mentioned items and others are checked at the standard
Maintenance Service intervals.
NOTE: Vehicles equipped with automatic transmissions should use (D) rive as often as possible and avoid using
"kickdown" to help improve fuel economy.
WARNING!
Driving with the trunk open: Driving with the trunk open could lead to poisonous exhaust gases entering the
passenger compartment. If the trunk must be kept open for any reason, proceed as follows
- Close the windows
- Set the ventilation system control to air flow to floor, windshield and side windows and blower control to its
highest setting.
