Average Fuel Economy / Distance To Empty (DTE) / Elapsed Time

• Average Fuel Economy

Shows the average fuel economy since the last reset.

When the fuel economy is reset, the digits will go blank while the history information is erased. The averaging will restart when enough new distance and fuel data is accumulated.

• Distance To Empty (DTE)

Shows the estimated distance that can be traveled with the fuel remaining in the tank. This estimated distance is determined by a weighted average of the instantaneous and average fuel economy, according to the current fuel tank level. DTE cannot be reset.

• Elapsed Time

Shows the total elapsed time of travel since the last reset.

Elapsed time will increment when the ignition switch is in the RUN or START positions. The elapsed timer displays minutes:seconds. After 59minutes:59seconds, it displays hours:minutes:seconds.
