consumption and speed → Elapsed time and
trip odometer → Stopwatch → Tire pressure
indicator (PSI) → Up-shift indicator setting (for
M/T models) → Speed indicator
Speed indicator (mph or km/h)
The vehicle speed is displayed in MPH or km/h
while driving.
The speed indicator in the trip computer
indicates the reference speed. The actual
speed indicated by the speedometer (com-
bination meter) may differ from the one in
the trip computer.
Outside air temperature
(ICY—°For°C)
The outside air temperature is displayed in °F or
°C in the range of −22 to 131°F (−30 to 55°C).
The outside air temperature mode includes a low
temperature warning feature: below 37°F (3°C),
the outside air temperature mode is automati-
cally selected and the ICY indicator will illumi-
nate in order to draw the driver’s attention. Push
the mode switch

if you wish to return to the
mode that was selected before the warning
occurred. The ICY indicator will continue blink-
ing as long as the temperature remains below
39°F (4°C).
The ambient temperature sensor is located in
front of the radiator. The sensor may be affected
by road or engine heat, wind directions and
other driving conditions. The display may differ
from the actual ambient temperature or the
temperature displayed on various signs or bill-
boards.
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.
The dte mode includes a low range warning
feature: when the fuel level is low, the dte mode
is automatically selected and the digits blink in
order to draw the driver’s attention. Press the
mode switch
k
A
if you wish to return to the mode
that was selected before the warning occurred.
The dte indicator will remain blinking until the
vehicle is refuelled.
When the fuel level drops even lower, the dte
display will change to (----).
