Rendezvous V6-3.5L (2007)
The ambient air temperature sensor is mounted in the forward engine area of the vehicle. In this position, it is exposed to the airflow through the grill
before it reaches the radiators.
The DIC displays the ambient air temperature value that it receives from the instrument panel cluster (IPC). The ambient air temperature is updated or
displayed under the following conditions:
Personalization
For personalization features refer to Personalization Description and Operation.
Average Fuel Economy (AFE)
AFE is calculated as the ratio between the following values:
*
AFE = Distance/Fuel
*
Distance = The accumulated distance since the last AFE reset
*
Fuel = The accumulated fuel consumption since the last AFE reset
You can reset the AFE mode by depressing and holding the Set button for more than 3 seconds. The value of this mode is retained during ignition OFF.
Instantaneous Fuel Economy (IFE)
Instantaneous fuel economy is calculated as the ratio between the following values:
*
IFE = Distance/Fuel
*
Distance = The accumulated distance since last update
*
Fuel = The accumulated fuel delivered since last update
You cannot reset the IFE mode. The value of this mode is not retained during ignition OFF.
Fuel Range
Fuel Range is calculated between the following values:
*
Fuel Range = AFE x Fuel Remaining
*
Fuel Remaining = Fuel sender value of available fuel
When a low fuel condition exists, the DIC displays FUEL RANGE LOW.
You can not reset the Fuel Range mode. The value of this mode is retained during ignition OFF.
Fuel Used
The DIC calculates and displays the total amount of fuel used since the last reset operation.
You can reset the Fuel Used mode by depressing and holding the Set button for more than 3 seconds. The value of this mode is retained during ignition
OFF.
Average Speed
Average speed is calculated as the ratio between the following values:
*
Average Speed = Distance/Ignition On
*
Distance = Accumulated distance since last reset
*
Ignition On = Accumulated ignition on time since last reset, ignition on is defined as run power mode with engine RPM greater than 100.
Ignition On time is measured from the time that the ignition is turned ON to the time when the ignition is turned OFF.
