It means you are nearly out of fuel. The DTE is Distance To Empty, and when the car gets below 10 litres or a range of 80, then 60, then 40km, it beeps at you. Only way to solve this is by putting fuel in.
I had not seen this post when I sent you the PM, so the wheels off my XR8 would fit your car. Follow the link to see what they look like. http://www.fordforums.com.au/photos/...Side_1_med.JPG

Press the little "stick" that comes out of the instrument cluster to switch between DTE and the odometre. The large numbers are the total distance travelled but by pressing and holing down the stick resets the little odometer to 0km, so you can measure the distance of a journey.
