onds. Then, 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 trav-
eled 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 through the FUNCTION
SELECT button.
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 mi (48 km)
estimated driving distance, the DTE display will
change to a text display of
"
LOW 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.
•
