this higher fuel efficiency to the fuel remaining in the tank can actually result in more remaining distance.
If you drive slower than the average speed of the tank so far, the time to empty can increase.
To maintain accurate To Empty information, you must use the following FILLUP procedure shown under
Filling Up Your Tank to indicate the vehicle tank has been refilled. It is also necessary to fill the tank to
make the TO EMPTY information correct.
Filling Up Your Tank
To maintain accurate information in the Tank Trip and To Empty computers, you must tell your
ScanGauge that you have filled the tank each time you fuel up your vehicle. To maintain accurate To
Empty information, it is also important to fill that take to capacity each time you put fuel in the vehicle.
Once you have completed your second fill-up (page 21), subsequent fill-ups may not
require adjusting the gallons/liters before pressing DONE.
You should refill the vehicle when there is above 50 miles/km remaining. Pushing below
50 could result in running out of fuel.
When filling your tank, let the pump shut off automatically. Do not top off.
To maintain accurate TO EMPTY information in the ScanGauge’s trip computers, you
should always fill your tank to capacity.
The Fill-up Procedure
To access the Fillup Screen, follow the diagram to
the right.
From the Home Screen, press the lower right function
button next to MORE. Next, press the upper right
function button next to FILLUP.
If the tank is not full, the To Empty information will
not be accurate and you must be sure not to make
an adjustment before pressing DONE the next time
you fill-up.
The ScanGauge allows you to change the adjustment
factor directly if less than 1 gallon/liter has been used
since the previous fil-up sequence was done.
It is not necessary to make an adjustment each time
you refuel.
You can press HOME>MORE>FILLUP>DONE when
you refuel. This will restart the TANK TO EMPTY Trip
computer without changing the adjustment factor.
