Fuel Economy
Press the right arrow on the left steering wheel mounted button when
fuel economy is selected. The boxes in the upper right corner of the
screen indicate that there are multiple screens that you can navigate
through. Each press of the right arrow will navigate to the next screen
until the last screen is reached. The white highlighted box indicates
which of the screens you are currently viewing:
Instant fuel economy
Shown with vertical bar tachometer
enabled
•This display shows a visual graph
of your instantaneous fuel
economy. Press the right arrow to
reach the other fuel displays and
press the left arrow once to
return to the previous display.
Configurable fuel history
Shown with vertical bar tachometer
enabled
•This display shows a bar chart of
your fuel history, configurable to
5, 10 or 30 minutes. Refer to
Settings to configure the history
time.
When the fuel level becomes low (50 miles [80 km] to empty), the level
indicator will change to amber. When the fuel level becomes critically low
(0 miles [0 km] to empty), the level indicator will change to red.
If you calculate your average fuel economy by dividing miles traveled by
gallons of fuel used (liters of fuel used by 100 kilometers traveled), your
figure may be different than displayed for the following reasons:
•Your vehicle was not perfectly level during fill-up.
•Differences in the automatic shut-off points on the fuel pumps at
service stations.
•Variations in top-off procedure from one fill-up to another.
•Rounding of the displayed values to the nearest 0.1 gallon (liter).
