Fuel Range:The range calculates the remaining
distance you can drive without refueling. It is
based on fuel economy and the fuel remaining in
the tank.
Press the fuel button again to display the range,
such as:
RANGE 30 MI or
RANGE 48 km
If the LOW FUEL warning is displayed or if
RANGE is less than 40 miles (64 km), the display
will read RANGE LOW.
The fuel economy data used to determine fuel
range is an average of recent driving conditions.
As your driving conditions change, this data is
gradually updated automatically.
If the vehicle has been idling for a long time, the
range displayed on the DIC could be abnormally
low. The vehicle must be driven 5–10 miles
(8–16 km) to get an accurate reading.
