Fuel gaugeThe fuel gauge indicates the approxi-
mate amount of fuel remaining in the fuel
tank.
Fuel tank capacity - 18.49 US gal. (70
liters).
The fuel gauge is supplemented by a low
fuel warning light, which will illuminate
when the fuel tank is nearly empty.
Trip computerThe trip computer is a microcomputer-
controlled driver information system that
displays information related to driving,
including odometer, tripmeter, driving
time, average speed, average fuel con-
sumption, instant fuel consumption and
distance to empty on the display when
the ignition switch is in the ON position.
All stored driving information (except
odometer) is reset if the battery is dis-
connected.TRIP Button
Push the TRIP button for less than 1
second to select tripmeter function as fol-

The odometer indicates the total dis-
tance the vehicle has been driven. Tripmeter (mi.)
TRIP A : Tripmeter A

This mode indicates the distance of indi-
vidual trips selected since the last trip-
meter reset.
The meter's working range is from 0.0 to
999.9 miles.
Pressing the TRIP button for more than 1
second, when the tripmeter (TRIP A or
TRIP B) is being displayed, clears the
tripmeter to zero (0.0).MODE Button

Distance to empty (mi.)
This mode indicates the estimated dis-
tance to empty based on the current fuel
in the fuel tank and the amount of fuel
delivered to the engine. When the
remaining distance is below 30 miles, “--
-” will be displayed and the distance to
empty indicator will blink.
The meter’s working range is from 30 to
999 miles.Average fuel consumption (MPG)
This mode calculates the average fuel
consumption from the total fuel used and
the distance since the last average con-
sumption reset. The total fuel used is cal-
culated from the fuel consumption input.
For an accurate calculation, drive more
than 0.03 miles.
Pressing the MODE button for more than
1 second, when the average fuel con-
sumption is being displayed, clears the
average fuel consumption to zero (---).
If the vehicle speed exceeds 0.6mph
after refueled than 1.6 gallons(6L), the
average fuel consumption will be cleared
to zero(---).Instant fuel consumption (MPG)
This mode calculates the instant fuel
consumption every 2 second from the
driving distance and quantity of fuel
injection.

4Average speed (MPH)
This mode calculates the average speed
of the vehicle since the last average
speed reset.
Even if the vehicle is not in motion, the
average speed keeps going while the
engine is running.
Pressing the MODE button for more than
1 second, when the average speed is
being displayed, clears the average
speed to zero (---).
If 2 hours have passed after the ignition
switch is OFF, the average speed will be
cleared to zero(---). Elapsed time
This mode indicates the total time trav-
eled since the last driving time reset.
Even if the vehicle is not in motion, the
driving time keeps going while the engine
is running.
The meter’s working range is from
00:00~99:59.
Pressing the MODE button for more than
1 second, when the driving time is being
displayed, clears the driving time to zero
(00:00).
If 2 hours have passed after the ignition
switch is OFF, the elapsed time will be
cleared to zero(---).
✽ ✽
NOTICE• If the vehicle is not on level ground or
the battery power has been interrupt-
ed, the “Distance to empty” function
may not operate correctly.
The trip computer may not register
additional fuel if less than 6 liters (1.6
gallons) of fuel are added to the vehi-
cle.
• The fuel consumption and distance to empty values may vary significantly
based on driving conditions, driving
habits, and condition of the vehicle.
• The distance to empty value is an esti- mate of the available driving distance.
This value may differ from the actual
driving distance available.
