rupted, the distance to empty func-
tion may not operate correctly.

it is an estimate of the available
driving distance.
• The trip computer may not register additional fuel if less than 1.6 gal-
lons (6 liters) of fuel are added to the
vehicle.
• The fuel economy and distance to empty may vary significantly based
on driving conditions, driving
habits, and condition of the vehicle.
Average Fuel Economy (2)
The average fuel economy is cal-culated by the total driving dis-
tance and fuel consumption since
the last average fuel economy
reset.

cally.
