display blinks to give a warning. The display will
stop blinking after 1 minute or when the outside
air temperature becomes 398F(48C) or above.
The display may differ from the actual outside
temperature displayed on various signs or bill-

Current fuel consumptionThe current fuel consumption mode shows the
current fuel consumption.Distance to empty (dte — mls or km)The distance to empty (dte) mode provides you
with an estimation of the distance that can be
driven before refueling. The dte is constantly
being calculated, based on the amount of fuel in
the fuel tank and the actual fuel consumption.
The display is updated every 30 seconds.
