Values displayed
Average consumption
Represents the indicative average of con-
sumptions from the beginning of the
new mission.
Current consumption
This value shows instant fuel consump-
tion (this value is updated second by
second). If parking the car with engine
on, the display will show "- - - -".
Average speed
This value shows the car average speed
as a function of the overall time elapsed
since the start of the new mission.
Travel time
This value shows the time elapsed since
the start of the new mission (driving
time).
Range
This value shows the distance in km (or
mi) that the car can still cover before
needing fuel, assuming that driving con-
ditions are kept unvaried.
The display will show "- - - -" in the fol-
lowing cases:
❒ value lower than 50 km (30mi);
❒ car left parked with engine running
for long.
IMPORTANT The variation of the au-
tonomy value can be influenced by dif-
ferent factors: driving style (see what is
described in paragraph "Driving style"
in the chapter "Correct use of the car"),
type of route (highways, urban, moun-
tain, etc...), use conditions of the car
(load transported, tire pressure, etc...).
What was described previously must be
taken in consideration when planning
a trip.
Travel Distance
This value shows the distance covered
from the start of the new mission.
Each time the battery is connected and
each time a new mission is started (re-
set), the display will show "0.0".
