2006 Ford Taurus Owners Manual

Driver Controls
The DTE function  will display LOW  FUEL LEVEL and sound  a tone for
one second when  you have approximately  50 miles (80 km)  to empty. If
you RESET this  warning message, this  display and tone will  return
within 10 minutes.
DTE is calculated  using a running  average fuel economy, which  is based
on your recent  driving history of  500 miles (800 km).  This value is  not
the same as  the average fuel  economy display. The running  average fuel
economy is reinitialized  to a factory  default value if the  battery is
disconnected.
Averagefueleconomy(AFE)
Select this function  from the INFO
menu to display  your average fuel
economy in liters/100  km or
miles/U.S. gallon.
If you calculate  your average fuel
economy by dividing  gallons of fuel
used by 100  miles traveled (kilometers  traveled by liters used),  your
figure may be  different than displayed  for the following reasons:
Your vehicle was  not perfectly level  during fill-up
Differences in the  automatic shut-off points  on the fuel pumps  at
service stations
1.
Variations in top-off  procedure from one  fill-up to another
Rounding of the  displayed values to  the nearest 0.1 gallon  (liter)
Drive the vehicle  at least 8  km (5 miles) with  the speed control
system engaged to  display a stabilized  average.
2.
Record the highway  fuel economy for  future reference.
It is important  to press the  RESET control after setting  the speed
control to get  accurate highway fuel  economy readings.

vehicles
Upon refueling, your  vehicle must determine  the percentage of Ethanol
in the fuel.  Until the percent  of Ethanol is determined,  DTE/AFE may
not display the  current values. The  correct DTE/AFE will appear  after
driving a few  miles.
