FORD 2006 Escape Hybrid v.1 - Manual (Page 96)

Average fuel economy (AFE) (if equipped)
This function will display your
average fuel economy in miles/gallon
or liters/100 km.
If you calculate your average fuel
economy by dividing gallons of fuel
used by 100 miles traveled
(kilometers traveled by liters used), 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)
1. Drive the vehicle at least 5 miles (8 km) with the speed control
system engaged to display a stabilized average.
2. Record the highway fuel economy for future reference.
It is important to press the SET control after setting the speed control to
get accurate highway fuel economy readings.
To reset back to zero, press and hold the SET button for 2 seconds.
Distance to empty (DTE)
Selecting this function from the
INFO menu will give you an
estimate of how far you can drive
with the fuel remaining in your tank
under normal driving conditions.
Remember to turn the ignition
LOCK when refueling your vehicle. Otherwise, the display will not show
the addition of fuel for a few kilometers (miles). DTE will vary according
to your driving habits.
