display). Upon reset, the history information will be

erased, and the averaging will continue from the last fuel

average 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. DTE cannot be reset.
NOTE:

Significant changes in driving style or vehicle

loading will greatly affect the actual drivable distance of

the vehicle, regardless of the DTE display 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 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 display.

Elapsed Time

Shows the total elapsed time of travel since the last reset.

Elapsed time will increment when the ignition switch is

in the RUN or START position.
Elapsed time is displayed as follows:

• Hours
• Minutes
• Seconds
Elapsed time can be reset by pushing 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.
