Cadillac 2010 CTS, Owner'S Manual

Instruments and Controls 4-33
Fuel Range
This display shows the approximate
number of remaining miles (mi) or
kilometers (km) you can drive
without refilling the fuel tank. This
estimate is based on the current
driving conditions and changes if
the driving conditions change. For
example, if you are driving in traffic
and making frequent stops, the
display may read one number, but if
you enter the freeway, the number
may change even though you still
have the same amount of fuel in the
fuel tank. This is because different
driving conditions produce different
fuel economies. Generally, freeway
driving produces better fuel
economy than city driving.
Once the range drops below about
30 miles (48 km) remaining, the
display shows Low Range.
If the vehicle is low on fuel, the Fuel
Level Low message displays. See
“ Fuel Level Low ” under Fuel System
Messages on page 4 ‑ 42 for more
information.
AVG (Average) Economy
This display shows the approximate
average miles per gallon (mpg) or
liters per 100 kilometers (L/100 km).
This number is calculated based on
the number of mpg (L/100 km)
recorded since the last time this
display was reset. To reset this
display to zero, press the set/reset
button.
Timer
This display can be used like a
stopwatch. You can record the time
it takes to travel from one point to
another. To access the timer, press
the trip/fuel button until Timer
00:00:00 displays.
To turn on the timer, press the
set/reset button until the timer
starts.
To turn off the timer, press the
set/reset button again. The timer
stops and displays the end timing
value.
To reset the timer to zero, press and
hold the set/reset button after the
timer has been stopped.
Inst (Instantaneous) Economy
This display shows the current fuel
economy in either miles per
gallon (mpg) or liters per
100 kilometers (L/100 km). This
number reflects only the fuel
economy that the vehicle has right
now and changes frequently as
driving conditions change. Unlike
average economy, this display
cannot be reset.
AVG (Average) Speed
This display shows the average
speed of the vehicle in either miles
per hour (mph) or kilometers per
hour (km/h). This average is
calculated based on the various
vehicle speeds recorded since the
last reset of this display. To reset
this display to zero, press the
set/reset button.
