until the fuel gauge reaches “E”. It is
different from the actual distance traveled.
The displayed value is updated every time

consumed.

culation is reset. When refueling, be sure

switch off.
The actual driving range varies with driv-
ing habits and road conditions. If fuel con-
sumption is good, the driving range will be
longer. If fuel consumption is poor, the
driving range will be shorter.
If the low fuel level warning light comes
on, refuel even if the display indicates
that the vehicle can be driven further.
