Information Displays
The following is the list of all possible information displays and their locations. Some of the information displays may not be available for your particular vehicle.
Left Zone
Trip Information
The Trip 1 or 2 display shows the current distance traveled, in either kilometers (km) or miles (mi), since the trip odometer was last reset. To reset the trip, touch and hold the touchscreen display when trip odometer is displayed on the vehicle status screen. The Average Fuel Economy display shows the approximate average liters per 100 kilometers (L/100 km), kilometers per liter (km/L), or miles per gallon (mpg). This number is calculated based on the number of L/100 km (mpg) or km/L recorded since the last time this menu item was reset. This number reflects only the approximate average fuel economy that the vehicle has right now, and will change as driving conditions change. The Average Fuel Economy can be reset along with the trip odometer by touching and holding the touchscreen display when trip odometer is displayed on the vehicle status screen.
Current Trip
Displays distance driven, fuel economy, and time elapsed since vehicle startup. It resets when you turn your vehicle off.
Time/Date
Displays current date, time, and temperature information.
Engine Hours
Displays the total number of hours the engine has run. This display also shows the engine idle hours.
Battery Voltage
Displays the current battery voltage.
Oil Life
Displays an estimate of the remaining oil life. If REMAINING OIL LIFE 99% is displayed, that means 99% of the current oil life remains.
When the remaining oil life is low, the CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON message will appear on the display. The oil should be changed as soon as possible. See Engine Oil 3 269. In addition to the engine oil life system monitoring the oil life, additional maintenance is recommended. See Maintenance Schedule 3 333.
The Oil Life display must be reset after each oil change. It will not reset itself. Do not reset the Oil Life display at any time other than when the oil has just been changed. It cannot be reset accurately until the next oil change. To reset, see Engine Oil Life System 3 271.
