Fuel and Refueling
•

•
Turn the ignition off before fueling; an
inaccurate reading results if the engine
is left running.
Use the same fill rate
(low-medium-high) each time the tank
is filled.
The maximum tank capacity, during
fueling, is reached when the pump is
automatically cut off for the second
time.
Results are most accurate when the filling
method is consistent.

Your vehicle calculates fuel economy
figures through the trip computer average
fuel function. See Trip Computer (page
96).
The first 1,000 mi (1,500 km) of driving is
the break-in period of the engine. A more
accurate measurement is obtained after
2,000 mi (3,000 km).
