Default Instantaneous Fuel Economy

Have a 09 XLT 1/2ton ScrewCab "Texas Edition". On page 90 of the owner's guide it mentions the capability to display Instantaneous Fuel Economy. I have tried everything but taking it back to the dealer to find this setting. Mine goes directly from Avg MPG to "Press Reset.....". Has anyone found and used this feature

I cant get it either in my XLT. I also read it in the manual but the option does not seem to actually exist.

Default Instant Fuel Economy

I can't find it either in my XLT . I have a sneaking suspicion that this is a typo & that the instant FE is only on the Optional Msg Center like found in a Lariat (p101)
Let us know!

I get the IFE on my 09 XLT. It is on the odometer behind the steering wheel. Just push the stick-like button a few times and it goes through different things, average mileage, IFE, actual mileage, trip A & B.

I can't find the IFE either, when I cycle through the option, I see Trip A, Trip B, Average Mileage, Reset, and System. No Instance Fuel
