Average Fuel Economy

Driver Information Center (DIC) Description And Operation:




AFE is calculated using AFE=Distance/Fuel:
^ Distance=The accumulated distance since the last AFE reset
^ Fuel=The accumulated fuel consumption since the last AFE reset

The IPC receives a class 2 message from the PCM regarding fuel usage information. The distance information is calculated by the IPC. The value of this mode is retained during ignition OFF and can be changed between English and metric by using the English/Metric DIC switch. The AFE mode can be reset by pressing and holding the Reset button on the DIC switch for one second.
