INST ECONOMY
[LG11700(ALL)01/93]
Your instantaneous fuel economy is the fuel economy you get at
any particular moment. For example, you can see what your
fuel economy is in heavy traffic or on the highway.
[LG11800(ALL)01/93]
Factors such as braking, acceleration, and road terrain affect
your fuel economy.
[LG11900(ALL)01/93]
To display instantaneous fuel economy, press the SELECT
button until the menu displays INST ECONOMY. Your vehicle
must be moving for the computer to calculate a fuel economy
greater than zero.
[LG12000(ALL)01/93]
AVG ECONOMY
[LG12100(ALL)01/93]
The average fuel economy is an overall average of your fuel
economy taken from the last time the reset button was pushed.
The computer takes an average of all the types of driving you
have done since the RESET button was pressed (highway, city,
heavy traffic), and figures out the average fuel economy. You
can calculate your average fuel economy as often as you like.
For example, you can calculate the average fuel economy for
each tank of fuel or for every day.
[LG12200(ALL)01/93]
To display the average fuel economy:
[LG12300(ALL)01/93]1.
Press the SELECT button until the menu displays AVG
ECONOMY.
[LG12400(ALL)03/91]2.
You will probably display the average fuel economy for each
tank of fuel or for each trip you take. Each time you want to
recalculate the average fuel economy, you need to press the
RESET button. The average fuel economy must be displayed
to reset the fuel computer.
[LG12500(ALL)01/93]
The best time to reset the AVG ECONOMY is when you fill
the fuel tank or at the beginning of a trip.
