1. Driving distance on current fuel reserve
This function shows the approximate distance that can be driven on the f\
uel remaining in the tank. This
calculation is based on average fuel consumption during the last 12 mile\
s (20 km) of driving and the
amount of fuel remaining in the tank when the reading was taken.
When the driving distance on current fuel reserve is less than 12 miles \
(20 km), "----" will be displayed
in the text window.
2. Average fuel consumption

ter was reset (by pressing
RESET, button C). When the engine is switched off, information on fuel \
consumption is stored and
remains in system memory until the RESET (button C) is pressed again.
3. Current fuel consumption

en once per second. When the
vehicle is not moving, "----" will be displayed.
4. Average speed

was reset (by pressing RESET,
button C). When the engine is switched off, information on average spee\
d is stored and remains in

e vehicle's current speed from
km/h to mph.
NOTE: Trip computer readings may vary slightly depending on the circumference\
of the tires on the
vehicle.
* Five functions on Canadian models
