before refuelling is required, refuel
as soon as possible if the fuel level
is very low or the low fuel warning
light illuminates.
  The display will not change unless

graduation marks in the fuel gauge
indicating the remaining fuel supply
disappear.
  If there is no past fuel economy
information such as after ¿ rst
purchasing your vehicle or the
information is deleted when the

actual distance-to empty/range may
differ from the amount indicated.
Average Fuel Economy
This mode displays the average fuel
