Descriptions
The following paragraphs contain a more detailed
description of each menu item:
Clock/Outside Air Temp (Navigation System):If you
select this item, the clock and outside temperature
will be displayed at the top of the screen. The outside
temperature will be displayed in either degrees
Fahrenheit or degrees Celsius depending upon whether
the system is set for English or metric units. If you
wish to change the units, see “Main Audio Menu” in the
SRX Entertainment and Navigation System owner’s
manual.
OUTSIDE TEMP (Base Audio System):If you select
this item, the current outside temperature is displayed
at the top of the screen. It will be in either degrees
Fahrenheit or degrees Celsius depending upon whether
the system is set for English or metric units. If you
wish to change the units, seeDIC Main Menu on
page 3-60.MI TRIP A and B/Trip Odometer A and B:For
information on the trip odometers, see “Trip Odometers”
underSpeedometer and Odometer on page 3-37.
MPG AVG/Average Fuel Economy:If you select this
item, the approximate average miles per gallon (mpg)
or Liters per 100 kilometers (L/100km) is displayed.
This number is calculated based on the number of
mpg (L/100km) recorded since the last time this menu
item was reset.

press the CLR button located to the right of the screen.
The display will return to zero.

the upper right corner of the screen for three seconds to
bring up the Vehicle Information menu. Use the up and
down arrows on the screen to select Average Fuel
Economy and then touch the RESET button. Touch the
RETURN button on the screen to go back to the
previous page.
3-55

MPG INST/Instantaneous Fuel Economy:If you
select this item, the current fuel economy is displayed.
This number reects only the fuel economy that the
vehicle has right now and will change frequently
as driving conditions change. Unlike average fuel
economy, this menu item cannot be reset.
GAL FUEL USED/Fuel Used:If you select this item,
the number of gallons or liters of fuel used since the last
reset of this menu item is displayed.
To reset GAL FUEL USED using the Base audio
system, press the CLR button located to the right of the
screen. The display will return to zero.
To reset the Fuel Used using the Navigation system,
press and hold the vehicle information button in the upper

the Vehicle Information menu. Use the up and down

the RESET button. Touch the RETURN button on the

approximate number of remaining miles or kilometers
you can drive without refueling is displayed. This
estimate is based on the current driving conditions and
will change if the driving conditions change. For
example, if you are driving in traffic making frequent
stops, the display may read one number, but if you enter
the freeway, the number may change even though
you still have the same amount of gas in the gas tank.
This is because different driving conditions produce
different fuel economies. Generally, freeway driving
produces better fuel economy than city driving.
If your vehicle is low on fuel, the Low Fuel Level
message will be displayed. See “Low Fuel Level
Message” underDIC Warnings and Messages on
page 3-64for more information.
AVG MPH/Average Vehicle Speed:If you select this
item, the average speed of the vehicle is displayed in
miles per hour (mph) or kilometers per hour (km/h).
This average is calculated based on the various vehicle
speeds recorded since the last reset of this menu item.
