Fuel Range: Notes

This message indicates the estimated distance that the vehicle can travel under the current fuel economy and fuel level conditions since the last battery connection to the IPC. Fuel Range is calculated using the equation: Fuel Range = Distance Sum/Fuel Sum.

The ECM sends the fuel range value to the instrument panel module (IPM). The instrument panel cluster (IPC) receives a GMLAN message from the instrument panel module (IPM) with fuel information. The fuel range value is retained during ignition OFF and can be changed between English and Metric units by pressing the English/Metric button on the driver information center (DIC) switch. The Fuel Range display cannot be reset. Whenever the calculated fuel range is less than 64 Km/h (39.8 miles) RANGE-LOW is displayed.
