estimate of how far you can drive
with the fuel remaining in your tank
under normal driving conditions.
Remember to turn the ignition off

Select this function from the INFO
menu to display your average fuel
economy in miles/gallon or
liters/100 km.

If you calculate your average fuel
economy by dividing miles traveled by gallons of fuel used (liters of fuel
by used 100 kilometers traveled), your figure may be different than
displayed for the following reasons:

your vehicle was not perfectly level during fill-up

differences in the automatic shut-off points on the fuel pumps at
service stations

variations in top-off procedure from one fill-up to another

rounding off the displayed values to the nearest 0.1 gallon (liter)

1. Drive the vehicle at least 5 miles (8 km) with the speed control
system engaged to display a stabilized average.

2. Record the highway fuel economy for future reference.

It is important to press the RESET control after setting the speed
control to get accurate highway fuel economy readings.

Instantaneous fuel economy

Select this function from the INFO
menu to display your instantaneous
fuel economy. This will display your
fuel economy as a bar graph ranging
from

poor economy to

excellent economy.
