Trip computer (if so equipped)

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 on the instrument panel located near the speedometer. The following modes can be selected in the display:
● Distance to empty
● Instant fuel economy

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 being calculated, based on the amount of fuel in the fuel tank and the actual fuel consumption.

The display is updated every 30 seconds.

NOTE:
When driving uphill or rounding curves, the fuel in the tank shifts, which may momentarily change the display.
