Message center functions
DISTANCE TO EMPTY (DTE)
This function estimates
approximately how far you can drive
with the fuel remaining in your tank
under normal driving conditions.
Remember to turn the ignition OFF
when refueling your vehicle. Otherwise, the display will not show the
addition of fuel for a few miles. At least four gallons of fuel must be
added for the fuel gauge to immediately show the new fuel level.
The DTE function will flash for 5 seconds and sound a tone for 1 second
when you have approximately:
• 80 km (50 miles) left before you run out of fuel
• 40 km (25 miles)
• 16 km (10 miles)
The message center will remain in
the DTE function until the SELECT
control is pressed to change
functions.
Displayed DTE will not be equal to
AVG ECON multiplied by the FUEL
REMAIN value. DTE is calculated
using a method that considers the
fuel economy of the last 800 km
(500 miles) driven.
If “CO” or “CS” is displayed, there is a problem with the fuel indication
system and you should contact your dealer for service as soon as
possible.
