Ambient temperature
Shows the ambient temperature just above the road
surface while driving. When the temperature is in the
range 2336° F (5 - +2° C), the ambient temperature
sensor activates an indicator light in the "snowflake"
symbol to help alert the driver of possible slippery
driving conditions. Please note that this light does not
indicate a fault with your car.
At low speeds or when the car is not moving, the
temperature readings may be slightly higher than the
actual ambient temperature due to the heat generated by
the engine.
Tripmeter in miles (Canada: km)
Shows the distance driven since the function was last
reset. This value is stored in memory until it is reset
using the reset button on the trip computer control.
Driving distance on current fuel
reserve mile 0 (Canada: km)
Shows the approximate distance which can be driven on
the fuel remaining in the tank, calculated on the basis of
the average fuel consumption during the last 12 miles
(20 km) driven and the amount of fuel remaining in the
tank at the time of the reading.
When the quantity of fuel drops to below approximately
1.8 US gals. (8 liters), a warning light in the instrument
panel comes on. When the driving distance on the
current fuel reserve is less than 12 miles (20 km), the
display shows "—".
