Range
This is the distance that can still be travelled on the amount of fuel remaining in the tank.
When the distance remaining to be travelled is l e s s t h a n a p p r o x . 2 5 k m ( 1 6 m i l e s ) , o n l y t h r e e dashes will be displayed.
Average consumption
This is the relationship between the fuel con-sumed and the distance travelled since the last reset to zero of the trip computer.
Instantaneous consumption
This is the result from the consumption r e c o r d e d w i t h i n t h e l a s t 2 s e c o n d s . T h i s f u n c -tion is only available when travelling at over 3 0 k m / h ( a p p r o x . 2 0 m p h ) .
Average speed
This is obtained, from the last reset to zero of the trip computer, by dividing the distance travelled by the time taken (with ignition switched on).
Distance travelled
This is the distance that has been travelled s i n c e t h e l a s t r e s e t t o z e r o o f t h e J o u r n e y selected.
