1. Trip computer controls and functions
The trip computer functions can be accessed
by twisting INFO (B) one step at a time in
either direction. Twisting a final time returns
you to the original function.
The trip computer can be reset (current data
will be erased from system memory) by
pressing RESET (button C).
2. Driving distance on current fuel
reserve
This function shows the approximate dis-
tance that can be driven on the fuel remaining
in the tank. The calculation is based on aver-
age fuel consumption during the last 20 miles
(30 km) of driving and the amount of fuel
remaining in the tank when the reading was
taken.
When "----" is displayed in the text window,
refuel as soon as possible.
3. Average fuel consumption
This value indicates fuel consumption since
the last time the trip computer was reset (by
pressing RESET, button C). When the engine
is switched off, information on fuel consump-
tion is stored and remains in system memory
until the RESET (button C) is pressed again.
4. Current fuel consumption
This value indicates the current fuel con-
sumption, based on readings taken once per
second. When the vehicle is not moving,
"----" will be displayed.
5. Average speed
This value indicates average speed since the
last time the trip computer was reset (by
pressing RESET, button C). When the engine
is switched off, information on average speed
is stored and remains in system memory until
the RESET (button C) is pressed again.
