•Actual highway fuel economy is
now displayed.This current
average measure will change as
the speed control system changes the engine speed to maintain a
constant vehicle speed. This is most noticeable in hilly environments.
4. Drive the vehicle at least 5 miles (8 km) with the speed control
system engaged to display a stabilized average.
5. Record the highway fuel economy for future reference.
It is important to press the RESET control after setting the speed

Dist to empty (DTE)
This function estimates
approximately how far you can drive
with the fuel remaining in your tank
under normal driving conditions.
Remember to turn the ignition OFF
when refueling to allow this feature
to correctly detect the added fuel.
The DTE function will flash for 5
seconds and sound a tone for 1 second when you have approximately:
•50 miles (80 km) left before you run out of fuel
•25 miles (40 km)
•10 miles (16 km)
DTE is calculated using a running average fuel economy, which is based
on your recent driving history of 500 miles (800 km). This value is not
the same as the average fuel economy display. The running average fuel
economy is reinitialized to a factory default value if the battery is
disconnected.
If “CO” or “CS” is displayed, there is a problem with the fuel indication
system and you should contact your dealer for service as soon as
possible.SELECT

trunk, or stronger. The force of the closing trunk increases as the trunk
approaches the latched position. The trunk will close with the next press
of the interior trunk control or key fob button.
Make sure all persons are clear of the luggage compartment area
before using the power trunk control.
If the battery is disconnected, discharged, or a new battery is installed,

•Reconnect the battery with the trunk closed
•Power activate the trunk with the power interior trunk release, the
key fob or the keypad on the door to the full open position, then
power activate the same power source and fully close the trunk. The
power trunk is now reset.
