Trip/Fuel Menu Items
Trip/Fuel (1):
Press this button to scroll through the fol-
lowing displays:
ODOMETER
Press the trip/fuel button until ODOMETER
displays. This display shows the distance
the vehicle has been driven in either miles
(mi) or kilometers (km). This display will
also show the outside air temperature in
either degrees Fahrenheit (°F) or degrees
Celsius (°C).
To change the DIC display to English or
metric units, refer to “UNITS” later in this
section.
TRIP
Press the trip/fuel button until TRIP dis-
plays. This display shows the current dis-
tance traveled in either miles (mi) or
kilometers (km) since the last reset for the
trip odometer. This display will also show
the outside air temperature in either
degrees Fahrenheit (°F) or degrees Cel-
sius (°C).
The trip odometer can be reset to zero by
pressing the set/reset button while the trip
odometer is displayed.
AVERAGE SPEED
Press the trip/fuel button until AVERAGE
SPEED displays. This display shows the
average speed of the vehicle in miles per
hour (mph) or kilometers per hour (km/h).
This average is calculated based on thevarious vehicle speeds recorded since the
last reset of this value. To reset the value,
press and hold the set/reset button. The
display will return to zero.
AVG (Average) ECONOMY
Press the trip/fuel button until AVG ECON-
OMY displays. This display shows the
approximate average miles per gallon
(mpg) or liters per 100 kilometers (L/100
km). This number is calculated based on
the number of mpg (L/100 km) recorded
since the last time this menu item was
reset. To reset this display, press and hold
the set/reset button. The display will return
to zero.
RANGE
Press the trip/fuel button until RANGE dis-
plays. This display shows the approximate
number of remaining miles (mi) or kilome-
ters (km) the vehicle can be driven without
refueling.
The fuel range estimate is based on an
average of the vehicle’s fuel economy over
recent driving history and the amount of
fuel remaining in the fuel tank. This esti-
mate will change if driving conditions
change. For example, if driving in traffic
and making frequent stops, this display
may read one number, but if the vehicle is
driven on a freeway, the number may
change even though the same amount of
fuel is in the fuel tank. This is because dif-
ferent driving conditions produce different
fuel economies. Generally, freeway drivingproduces better fuel economy than city
driving.
If your vehicle is low on fuel, the FUEL
LEVEL LOW message will be displayed.
Refer to “FUEL LEVEL LOW” under “DIC
Warnings and Messages” in this section for
more information.

Vehicle Information (2):
Press this button to scroll through the fol-
lowing displays:
OIL LIFE
Press the vehicle information button until
OIL LIFE REMAINING displays. This dis-
play shows an estimate of the oil’s remain-
ing useful life. If you see 99% OIL LIFE
REMAINING on the display, that means
99% of the current oil life remains. The
engine oil life system will alert you to
change your oil on a schedule consistent
with your driving conditions.
When the remaining oil life is low, the
CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON message
will appear on the display. Refer to
“CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON” under
“DIC Warnings and Messages” in this sec-
tion. You should change your oil as soon
as possible. Refer to “Engine Oil” in
“Checking Things Under the Hood” in the
“Service and Appearance Care” section. In
addition to the engine oil life system moni-
toring the oil life, additional maintenance is
recommended in the Maintenance Sched-
ule in this manual. Refer to “Scheduled
Maintenance” in “Maintenance Schedule”
in the “Maintenance Schedule” section for
more information.
Remember, you must reset the OIL LIFE
yourself after each oil change. It will not
reset itself. Also, be careful not to reset the
OIL LIFE accidentally at any time otherthan when the oil has just been changed. It
cannot be reset accurately until the next oil
change. To reset the engine oil life system,
refer to “Engine Oil Life System” in “Check-
ing Things Under the Hood” in the “Service
and Appearance Care” section.
UNITS
Press the vehicle information button until
UNITS displays. This display allows you to
select between English or Metric units of
measurement. Once in this display, press
the set/reset button to select between
ENGLISH or METRIC units.
FRONT TIRES or REAR TIRES
The pressure for each tire can be viewed in
the DIC. The tire pressure will be shown in
either pounds per square inch (psi) or kilo-
pascals (kPa). Press the vehicle informa-
tion button until the DIC shows FRONT
TIRES PSI (kPa) LF ## (###) RF ## (###).
Press the vehicle information button again
until the DIC displays REAR TIRES PSI
(kPa) LR ## (###) RR ## (###).
If a low or high tire pressure condition is
detected by the system while driving, a
message advising you to check the pres-
sure in a specific tire will appear in the dis-
play. Refer to “Inflation - Tire Pressure” in
“Tires” in the “Service and Appearance
Care” section and “DIC Warnings and
Messages” in this section for more infor-
mation.
If the tire pressure display shows dashes
instead of a value, there may be a problemwith your vehicle. If this consistently
occurs, see your dealer for service.
BATTERY
Press the vehicle information button until
BATTERY displays. This display shows the
current battery voltage. If the voltage is
low, the display will show LOW. If the volt-
age is high, the display will show HIGH.
Your vehicle’s charging system regulates
voltage based on the state of the battery.
The battery voltage may fluctuate when
viewing this information on the DIC. This is
normal. Refer to “Battery Warning Light” in
this section for more information.
If there is a problem with the battery charg-
ing system, the DIC will display SERVICE

TEM” under “DIC Warnings and Mes-
sages” in this section. Also, refer to
“Electric Power Management” in this sec-
tion for more information.
TIRE LOCATIONS
After rotating the tires or after replacing a
tire or sensor, the system must re-learn the
tire positions. To re-learn the tire positions,
refer to “Tire Pressure Monitor System” in
“Tires” in the “Service and Appearance
Care” section. Refer to “Tire Inspection
and Rotation” in “Tires” in the “Service and
Appearance Care” section and “DIC Warn-

ning, start and run the engine for at least
10 minutes to allow the battery to
recharge. If the engine is running and the
condition persists, see your dealer immedi-
ately.
