2016 JEEP PATRIOT reset

1. Speedometer•The Speedometer shows the vehicle speed in miles
per hour (MPH) and kilometers per hour (km/h).
Odometer Display / Trip Odometer Display This
display indicates the total distance the vehicle has
been driven.
NOTE: U.S. Federal regulations require that upon trans-
fer of vehicle ownership, the seller certify to the pur-
chaser the correct mileage that the vehicle has been
driven. If your odometer needs to be repaired or serviced,
the repair technician should leave the odometer reading
the same as it was before the repair or service. If s/he
cannot do so, then the odometer must be set at zero, and
a sticker must be placed in the door jamb stating what the
mileage was before the repair or service. It is a good idea
for you to make a record of the odometer reading before
the repair/service, so that you can be sure that it is properly reset, or that the door jamb sticker is accurate if
the odometer must be reset at zero.
2. Tachometer
•This gauge measures engine revolutions per minute
(RPM x 1000). Before the pointer reaches the red area,
ease up on the accelerator to prevent engine damage.
3. Temperature Gauge •The temperature gauge shows engine coolant tem-
perature. Any reading within the normal range indi-
cates that the engine cooling system is operating
satisfactorily.
• The gauge pointer will likely indicate a higher tem-
perature when driving in hot weather or up moun-
tain grades. It should not be allowed to exceed the
upper limits of the normal operating range.

prompted in the EVIC display to reset). When the fuel
economy is reset, the display will read “RESET” or show
dashes for two seconds. Then, the history information
will be erased, and the averaging will continue from the
last fuel reading before the reset.
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. This is not resettable.
NOTE:Significant changes in driving style or vehicle
loading will greatly affect the actual drivable distance of
the vehicle, regardless of the DTE displayed value.
When the DTE value is less than 30 miles (48 km)
estimated driving distance, the DTE display will change
to a text display of LOW FUEL.This display will
continue until the vehicle runs out of fuel. Adding a significant amount of fuel to the vehicle will turn off the
LOW FUEL
text and a new DTE value will be dis-
played, based on the current values in the DTE calcula-
tion and the current fuel tank level.
