Antilock Brake System (ABS)
Warning Light
For vehicles with theAntilock Brake System(ABS), this light comes onbriefly when the engineis started.
If it does not, have the vehicle serviced by yourdealer/retailer. If the system is working normally theindicator light then goes off.
If the ABS light stays on, turn the ignition off. If the lightcomes on while driving, stop as soon as it is safelypossible and turn the ignition off. Then start the engineagain to reset the system. If the ABS light stays on,or comes on again while driving, the vehicle needsservice. If the regular brake system warning light is noton, the vehicle still has brakes, but not antilockbrakes. If the regular brake system warning light is alsoon, the vehicle does not have antilock brakes andthere is a problem with the regular brakes. SeeBrakeSystem Warning Light on page 4-52.
For vehicles with a Driver Information Center (DIC), seeDIC Warnings and Messages on page 4-67for allbrake related DIC messages.

3(Trip/Fuel):The following display menu items
can be displayed by pressing the trip/fuel button:
TRIP A or TRIP B
These displays show the current distance traveled sincethe last reset for each trip odometer in eitherkilometers (km) or miles (mi). Both odometers can beused at the same time. Each trip odometer can be resetto zero separately by pressing and holding theset/reset button for a few seconds while the desired tripodometer is displayed.
FUEL RANGE
This display shows the approximate number ofremaining kilometers (km) or miles (mi) you can drivewithout refilling the fuel tank. This estimate is based onthe current driving conditions and will change if thedriving conditions change. For example, if you aredriving in traffic and making frequent stops, the displaymay read one number, but if you enter the freeway,the number may change even though you still have thesame amount of fuel in the fuel tank. This is becausedifferent driving conditions produce different fueleconomies. Generally, freeway driving produces betterfuel economy than city driving.
Once the range drops below an estimated 64 km(40 miles) remaining, the display will show FUELRANGE LOW.
If your vehicle is low on fuel, the FUEL LEVEL LOWmessage will be displayed. See “FUEL LEVELLOW” underDIC Warnings and Messages on page 4-67for more information.
AVERAGE ECONOMY (AFE)
This display shows the approximate average liters per100 kilometers (L/100 km) or miles per gallon (mpg).This number is calculated based on the numberof L/100 km (mpg) recorded since the last time thisdisplay was reset. To reset this display, press theset/reset button. The display will return to zero.
INST (Instantaneous) ECONOMY (IFE)
This display shows the current fuel economy in eitherliters per 100 kilometers (L/100 km) or miles pergallon (mpg). This number reflects only the fuel economythat the vehicle has right now and will change frequentlyas driving conditions change. Unlike average economy,this display cannot be reset.
FUEL USED
This display shows the number of liters (L) orgallons (gal) of fuel used since the last reset of thisdisplay. To reset this display, press the set/reset button.The display will return to zero.
