This display shows the estimated
distance you can travel on the fuel
remaining in the tank.
This distance is estimated f rom the

over the last f ew miles (kilometers),
so it will vary with changes in speed,
traffic condition, etc.
This display shows the current, or
instant fuel mileage you are getting.
It shows the number of mpg (U.S.)
or l/100 km (Canada).
When either of the trip meters (trip
A or B) is displayed, your vehicle’s

the average f uel mileage, press and
release the TRIP/RESET button
repeatedly.
The average f uel mileage will be
reset when you reset the trip meter,
or if the vehicle’s battery goes dead
or is disconnected.
This indicator is displayed as the
system message on the multi-

driving habits and vehicle condition.
Theref ore, it is not possible f or one
set of estimates to predict f uel
economy precisely f or all drivers in
all environments.
Provides an estimated annual f uel
cost, based on 15,000 miles (20,000
km) per year multiplied by the cost
pergallon(basedonEPAfuelcost
data) divided by the combined f uel
economy.
