TRIP COMPUTER (if so equipped)

The display of the trip computer is situated in the

speedometer display. When the ignition switch is

placed in the ON position, the display scrolls all

the modes of the trip computer and then shows

the mode chosen before the ignition switch was

placed in the OFF position.
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON

position, modes of the trip computer can be

selected by pushing the trip computer change

button. The following modes can be selected:

Distance to empty (dte—mile or km)

The distance to empty (dte) mode provides you

with an estimation of the distance that can be

driven before refueling. The dte is constantly be-

ing calculated, based on the amount of fuel in the

fuel tank and the actual fuel consumption.
The display is updated every 30 seconds.
The dte mode includes a low range warning

feature: when the fuel level is low, the dte mode is

automatically selected and the digits blink in or-

change button if you wish to return to the mode

that was selected before the warning occurred.

The dte mark (dte) will remain blinking until the

vehicle is refueled.

When the fuel level drops even lower, the dte

display will change to (----).

NOTE:

If the amount of fuel added while the

ignition switch is OFF is small, the dis-
play just before the ignition switch is
turned OFF may continue to be dis-
played.
