The speedometer lets you see your speed in both miles
per hour (mph) and kilometers per hour
(kndh). The
odometer shows how far your vehicle has been driven,
in either miles (used in the United States) or kilometers
(used in Canada).
You may wonder what happens if a vehicle has to have a
new odometer installed. The new one may read the
correct mileage. This is because your vehicle's computer
has stored the mileage in memory.

Press the AVG button to display the average
mile-per-gallon (AVG MPG). You can also display it in
metric units by pressing the
ENGMET button.
When AVG MPG
is selected, the total distance is
divided by the total fuel used.
When the INST button (Instantaneous Fuel Economy) is
selected. you will see what the fuel economy is at that
instant. The computer takes
a new reading twice every
second.
It will show economy up to 70 miles-per-gallon
(or 2 L per- 100 ltm).
To reset the average fuel economy, press the
INFORMATION button until the AVG MPG is
displayed on the DIC. Press and hold the
RESET button
until both the fuel data center and DIC display reads
0.0.
The RANGE display shows how far the computer thinks
you can travel with the fuel that is in the tank. The
computer does
not know what driving conditions will be
like for the rest of your trip,
so the range is estimated
based on
the recent fuel economy. Therefore, the range
reading may change
as your driving habits change.
Going from city
to highway driving may increase the
range reading.
If the range display shows
LO, you should stop for fuel
as soon
as possible. Your computer needs enough data
for the RANGE reading to work. The
DIC display gives you the
status of many of your
vehicle’s systems. The DIC is also used to display driver
personalization features and warninghtatus messages.
Your vehicle may be equipped with the following
features that can be individually customized for up
to two drivers.
