Trip/Fuel Menu Items
(Trip/Fuel): Press to scroll through
the following menu items:
Odometer
Press the trip/fuel button until ODOMETER displays. This display shows the distance the vehicle has been driven in either kilometers (km) or miles (mi).
To switch between English and metric measurements, see “Units” later in this section.
Trip Odometer
Press the trip/fuel button until TRIP displays. This display shows the current distance traveled in either kilometers (km) or miles (mi)) since the last reset for the trip odometer.
The trip odometer can be reset to zero by pressing the set/reset button while the trip odometer is displayed.
Fuel Range
Press the trip/fuel button until FUEL RANGE displays. This display shows the approximate number of remaining kilometers (km) or miles (mi) the vehicle can be driven without refueling. The display will show LOW if the fuel level is low.
The fuel range estimate is based on an average of the vehicle's fuel economy over recent driving history and the amount of fuel remaining in the fuel tank. This estimate will change if driving conditions change. For example, if driving in traffic and making frequent stops, this display may read one number, but if the vehicle is driven on a freeway, the number may change even though the same amount of fuel is in the fuel tank. This is because different driving conditions produce different fuel economies. Generally, freeway driving produces better fuel economy than city driving. Fuel range cannot be reset.
Average Economy
Press the trip/fuel button until AVERAGE ECONOMY displays. This display shows the approximate average liters per 100 kilometers (L/100 km) or miles per gallon (mpg). This number is calculated based on the number of L/100 km (mpg) recorded since the last time this menu item was reset. To reset AVERAGE ECONOMY, press and hold the set/reset button.
Fuel Used
Press the trip/fuel button until FUEL USED displays. This display shows the number of liters (L) or gallons (gal) of fuel used since the last reset of this menu item. To reset the fuel used information, press and hold the set/reset button while FUEL USED is displayed.
Timer
Press the trip/fuel button until TIMER displays. This display can be used as a timer.
To start the timer, press the set/reset button while TIMER is displayed. The display will show the amount of time that has passed since the timer was last reset, not including time the ignition is off. Time will continue to be counted as long as the ignition is on, even if another display is being shown on the DIC. The timer will record up to 99 hours, 59 minutes and 59 seconds (99:59:59) after which the display will return to zero.
To stop the timer, press the set/reset button briefly while TIMER is displayed.
To reset the timer to zero, press and hold the set/reset button while TIMER is displayed.
Transmission Temperature
Press the trip/fuel button until TRANS TEMP displays. This display shows the temperature of the automatic transmission fluid in either degrees Celsius (°C) or degrees Fahrenheit (°F).
Instantaneous Economy
If your vehicle has this display, press the trip/fuel button until INST ECON displays. This display shows the current fuel economy at a particular moment and will change frequently as driving conditions change. This display shows the instantaneous fuel economy in liters per 100 kilometers (L/100 km) or miles per gallon (mpg). Unlike average economy, this screen cannot be reset.
The display may also show if the vehicle is currently in V4, V6 or V8 mode.
Average Vehicle Speed
Press the trip/fuel button until AVERAGE SPEED displays. This display shows the average speed in kilometers per hour (km/h) or miles per hour (MPH).
Blank Display
This display shows no information.
