AVERAGE FUEL ECONOMY
Shows the average fuel economy since the last reset. The

Average Fuel Economy can be reset by following the

prompt in the EVIC to use the SELECT button. When the

fuel economy is reset, the display will read “zero” for two

seconds. Then, the history information will be erased,

and the averaging will continue from the last fuel aver-

age 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 through the RIGHT arrow

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 miles (48 km)

estimated driving distance, the DTE display will change

to a “LOW FUEL” message. 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” message and a new DTE value will display.
