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 instrument cluster. Fuel Range is calculated using the equation: Fuel Range = Range Distance/Range Fuel Used.
- Range Distance = The accumulated distance travelled since the last reset of this value.
- Fuel Used = The accumulated fuel delivered since the last reset of this value.
The engine control module (ECM) sends the fuel range value to the instrument cluster. The instrument cluster receives a GMLAN message with fuel information. The fuel range value is retained during ignition OFF and can be changed between Europe-SI, USA and GB units by accessing the driver information center Units menu. The Fuel Range display cannot be reset. LOW is displayed when fuel range is below a predetermined value.
