The message center will remain in
the DTE function until the SELECT
control is pressed to change
functions.
DTE is calculated using a running
average fuel economy, which is
based on your recent driving history
of 800 km (500miles). This value is
not the same as the average fuel
economy display. The running average fuel economy is reinitialized to a
factory default value if the battery is disconnected.
If “CO” or “CS” is displayed, there is a problem with the fuel indication
system and you should contact your dealer for service as soon as
possible.
AVG FUEL ECONOMY (average fuel economy)
Select this function to display your
average fuel economy in liters/100
km or miles/gallon.
If you calculate your average fuel
economy by dividing miles traveled by gallons used, your figure may be
different than displayed for the following reasons:
•your vehicle was not perfectly level during fill-up
•differences in the automatic shut-off points on the fuel pumps at
service stations
•variations in top-off procedure from one fill-up to another
•rounding of the displayed values to the nearest 0.1 liter (gallons)
Press the RESET control while AVG
ECON is displayed to reset the
function.
