Driving range displayShows the approximate driving range (how many more miles
or kilometers you can drive). When this driving range falls
below 30 miles (50 km), “---” is displayed.

sumption data. This may vary depending on the driving
conditions and habits. Treat the distance displayed as just
a rough guideline.


When you refuel, the driving range display is updated.
However, if you only add a small amount of fuel, the cor-
rect value will not be displayed. Fill to a full tank when-
ever possible.


When your vehicle is stopped on an extremely steep hill,
the driving range value may, change. This is due to the
movement of fuel in the tank and does not indicate any
breakdown.

Be conscious of maintaining the momentary fuel consumption
above the average fuel consumption, it can help you drive with
the better fuel consumption.
