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

ЉLOW FUELЉ. This display will

continue until the vehicle runs out of fuel. Adding a
significant amount of fuel to the vehicle will turn off the

ЉLOW FUELЉ 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.

Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM)

Refer to “Starting And Operating”, “Tire Pressure Moni-
toring System (TPMS)” for system operation.

Elapsed Time

Shows the total elapsed time of travel since the last reset.
Elapsed time will increment when the ignition switch is
in the ON/RUN position.

Elapsed time is displayed as follows:

hours:minutes:seconds

Elapsed time can be reset by pressing and holding the
SELECT button (as prompted in the EVIC display). Upon
reset all digits will change to zeros and time will start
incrementing again if the ignition switch is in RUN or
START.
