measurement used differs.
In the absence of speed information or in the event of speed sensor or fuel level sensor failure, all TRIP
parameters will be displayed simply as dashes "----" together with the relative unit of measurement.
"Average speed"
Average speed since the last reset, calculated by dividing the distance travelled by the elapsed time.
The parameter is calculated only when the engine is running.
After each battery reconnect and after each reset, the display shows "------" for a distance of 500 metres
since reset, after which the calculated value is displayed.
At each Key-on, the value memorised at the previous Key-off is displayed.
The average speed parameter appears as "----" after resetting the parameter with the specific reset button or
after resetting any other of the TRIP parameters.
The parameter is displayed with a resolution of 1 Km/h (or mph).
Distance travelled
The count starts from zero after resetting.
The count advances at the same rate as the value on the total odometer
After each battery reconnect and after each reset, the value is shown as "0.0", after which the count begins.
At each Key-on, the value memorised at the previous Key-off is displayed.
Upon reaching the maximum trip distance displayable, the TRIP counter resets automatically to zero and all
TRIP information is reset, with the exception of the Range parameter.
The trip counter has a range from 0 to 999.9 Km (or mi) with a resolution of 0.1 Km (o mi).
Journey time
Indicates time elapsed since last reset.
After each battery reconnect and after each reset, the value is shown as "00:00", after which the count begins.
At each Key-on, the value memorised at the previous Key-off is displayed.
When the vehicle stops and the engine is switched off (key-off), the accumulated time counter is paused but
not reset. The count resumes when the vehicle is driven again (next key-on - engine running).
The elapsed trip time counter starts whenever the engine is started.
After Key-on, the parameter is displayed in hh:mm and with a range from 00:00 and 99:59, with a resolution
of 1 minute.
The two dots between the hh and mm values flash during normal operation (frequency 1 Hz – D.c. 50%).
Upon reaching the maximum value displayable (99:59), the elapsed time counter resets automatically to zero
and all TRIP information is reset, with the exception of the "Range" parameter.
Range:
Indicates the estimated remaining range (in Km or miles) with the current amount of fuel in the tank and
maintaining a similar driving style (same fuel consumption conditions).
The range is calculated using the following data:
current odometer count;
fuel level (as a percentage of a full tank);
instantaneous fuel consumption (in litres/hour);
fuel tank capacity (in litres).
The range is calculated on the basis of the reference average fuel consumption value and the litres of fuel
remaining in the tank.
The reference average consumption value used for range calculation is the average consumption over the
last 5 minutes of the journey.
After each battery reconnect, the display shows "------" for 30 seconds and for a distance of 500 metres, after
which the calculated value is displayed.
At each Key-on, the value memorised at the previous Key-off is displayed.
To prevent excessive fluctuation, the range value displayed is updated in increments proportional to the
difference between the value currently displayed and the calculated value.
If the difference between the calculated value and the value currently displayed exceeds 40 km, the range
value displayed is altered by a sixth of the difference.
If the difference between the calculated value and the value currently displayed is between 6 Km and 39 Km,
the range value displayed is altered by 3 Km.
