Distance To Empty (DTE)
Shows the estimated distance that can
be traveled with the fuel remaining in
the tank. This estimated distance is
determined by a weighted average of
the instantaneous and average fuel
economy, according to the current
fuel tank level. DTE cannot be reset
through the SELECT button.
NOTE: Significant changes in
driving style or vehicle loading
will greatly affect the actual driv-
able distance of the vehicle, re-
gardless of the DTE displayed
value.
When the DTE value is less than
48 km estimated driving distance, the
DTE display will change to a “LOW
FUEL” message. This display will
continue until the vehicle runs out offuel. Adding a significant amount of
fuel to the vehicle will turn off the
“LOW FUEL” message and a new
DTE value will display.
Instantaneous Fuel Economy (IFE)
This display shows the instantaneous
Liters Per 100km (L/100km)
or Miles Per Gallon (MPG) in bar
graph form while driving. This will
monitor the gas mileage in real-time
as you drive and can be used to
modify driving habits in order to in-
crease fuel economy.

rection the vehicle is facing. The
EVIC will display one of eight com-
pass readings and the outside tem-
perature.
NOTE: The system will display
the last known outside tempera-
ture when starting the vehicle and
186
may need to be driven several min-
utes before the updated tempera-
ture is displayed. Engine tempera-
ture can also affect the displayed
temperature; therefore, tempera-
ture readings are not updated
when the vehicle is not moving.
Automatic Compass Calibration
This compass is self-calibrating,
which eliminates the need to manu-
ally reset the compass. When the ve-
hicle is new, the compass may appear
erratic and the EVIC will display CAL
until the compass is calibrated. You
may also calibrate the compass by
completing one or more 360–degree
turns (in an area free from large metal
or metallic objects) until the CAL in-
dicator displayed in the EVIC turns
off. The compass will now function
normally.
NOTE: A good calibration re-
quires a level surface and an envi-
ronment free from large metallic
objects such as buildings, bridges,
underground cables, railroad
tracks, etc.Manual Compass Calibration (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
If the compass appears erratic and the
CAL indicator does not appear in the
EVIC display, you must put the com-
pass into the Calibration Mode manu-
ally, as follows:
1. Turn ON the ignition switch.
2. Press the UP or DOWN button un-
til the Setup (Customer-
Programmable Features) menu is
reached, then press the SELECT but-
ton.
3. Press the DOWN button until
“Calibrate Compass” is displayed in
the EVIC.
4. Press and release the SELECT
button to start the calibration. The
“CAL” indicator will be displayed in
the EVIC.
5. Complete one or more 360–degree
turns (in an area free from large metal
or metallic objects) until the “CAL”
indicator turns off. The compass will
now function normally.Compass Variance
Compass Variance is the difference
between Magnetic North and Geo-
graphic North. To compensate for the
differences the variance should be set
for the zone where the vehicle is
driven, per the zone map. Once prop-
erly set, the compass will automati-
cally compensate for the differences,
and provide the most accurate com-
pass heading. For the most accurate
compass performance, the compass
must be set using the following steps.
NOTE: Keep magnetic materials
away from the top of the instru-
ment panel, such as iPod's, Mobile
Phones, Laptops and Radar Detec-
tors. This is where the compass
module is located, and it can cause
interference with the compass sen-
sor, and it may give false readings.
