Distance to empty tank
The trip computer calculates the dis-
tance that can be driven on the fuel
remaining in the tank.
This calculation is based on average fuel con-
sumption during the last 30 km (20 miles)
and the amount of fuel remaining in the tank.
When the gauge displays "----", there is not
enough fuel remaining to calculate the remain-
ing mileage. Refuel as soon as possible.
NOTE
The information will change based on your
driving style.
An economical driving style will generally
increase how far you can drive on a certain
amount of fuel.
Distance to discharged battery
This gauge shows the approximate
distance that can be driven with the
remaining current in the hybrid bat-
tery.
This calculation is based on average consump-
tion with a normally loaded vehicle in normal
driving conditions, and takes into account
whether the air conditioning is on or off.
Changing drive modes from
may increase the calculated distance because

Pure
mode has reduced climate control set-
tings (ECO Climate).
When the gauge displays "----", there is little
charge remaining in the battery and electric
motor range cannot be reliably calculated.
NOTE
The information will change based on your
driving style.
An economical driving style will generally
increase how far you can drive on a certain
amount of fuel.
Starting values for fully charged hybrid
battery
Because it is difficult to predict driving style
and other factors that affect the range of elec-
tric motors, Volvo uses a starting value when
the vehicle is fully charged. This starting value
provides an "up to" amount instead of a pre-
diction on the range of the electric current in
the motor. The difference in starting value
between
vehicle is permitted to use more current from
the hybrid battery in
the vehicle switches to ECO Climate.
Mileage when using electric motor
To achieve the longest possible mileage when
using the electric motor, the driver of an elec-
Hybrid

Pure
tric vehicle also needs to think about conserv-

ing electricity. The more electricity consumers
(stereo, heated windows/mirrors/seats, very
cold air from climate control system, etc.) that
are active, the shorter the potential mileage.
NOTE
In addition to high electrical consumption
in the passenger compartment, rapid
acceleration, sudden braking, high speeds,
heavy loads, low ambient temperatures
and driving up hills can reduce possible
driving distance.
Tourist - alternative speedometer
The alternative digital speedometer makes it
easier to drive in countries where speed limit
signs are shown in a different measurement
unit than the one shown in the vehicle's
gauges.
When used, the digital speed is displayed in
the opposite unit to that shown in the analog
speedometer. If mph is used in the analog
speedometer, the equivalent speed in km/h
will be shown in the digital speedometer.
