- Before you start the engine, hold the CD and AM/FM buttons.
- Start the engine (keep holding the CD and AM/FM buttons).
- After a few seconds, you should see the display read "DIS ON" (driver information system)
- Stop the engine.
- Start the engine again.
- Touch the SET button to see the trip computer.
- Touch the TIME button to see the time.
theres a sticky on this somewhere.
but pretty much, this will unlock:
-km's remaining
-average speed
-mpg
-average mpg
my fuel light comes on when i have 35 kms remaining on the tank... ish

That number comes from what it expects your milage to be based on your average MPG.
Meaning you should get 9 or more driving like a granpa, or much less if you hammer it through every turn.

hahaha wow that's kinda scary, the lowest i've ever gone on mine is about 3m... isn't it a bit risky to the engine to be draining your fuel? i've heard that small deposits in your fuel tank can ruin your filter... i've never dared experiment, hehehe i did use those fuel injector cleaners on my older '97 Toyota T-100 every now and then... but not sure about my '06 Mazda3.
