TRIP COMPUTER
General features
The “Trip computer” is used to display in-
formation on car operation when the key
is turned to MAR. This function allows to
define two separate trips called “Trip A”
and “Trip B” for monitoring the car’s
“complete mission” in a reciprocally in-
dependent manner.
Both functions are resettable (reset - start
of new mission).
“Trip A” may be used to display the fig-
ures relating to:
– Range
– Distance travelled
– Average consumption
– Instant consumption
– Average speed
– Travel time (driving time).“Trip B”, available on multifunctional dis-
play only, shall be used to display the fig-
ures relating to:
– Trip distance B
– Average consumption B
– Average speed B
– Travel time B (driving time).
Note“Trip B” functions may be exclud-
ed (see “Trip B on”). “Range” and “In-
stantaneous consumption” cannot be re-
set.Values displayed
Range
This indicates the distance which may be
travelled with the fuel in the tank
assuming that driving conditions will not
change. The message “——” will appear
on the display in the following cases:
– range shorter than 50 km (or 30 mi)
– car left parked with engine running for
long.
Distance travelled
This indicates the distance covered from
the start of the new mission.

Average consumption
This indicates the average consumption
from the start of the new mission.
Instant consumption
This indicates the fuel consumption. The
value is constantly updated. The message
“----” will appear on the display
if the car is parked with the engine run-
ning.
Average speed
This 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.
IMPORTANT If information is not avail-
able, the message “----” will appear instead
of the Trip Computer values. Displaying
of the values will be resumed when nor-
mal operation is restored without reset-
ting the values displayed before the prob-
lem nor starting a new mission. TRIP button fig. 26
Button TRIP, set on the top of the right
steering column stalk, shall be used (with
ignition key at MAR) to display and to re-
set the previously described values to start
a new mission:

ues
– hold pressed to reset and then start a
new mission.
New mission
Reset can be:
– “manual” resetting by the user, by press-
ing the relevant button;
– “automatic” resetting, when the “Trip dis-
tance” reaches 3999.9 km or 9999.9 km
(according to the type of display) or when
the “Travel time” reaches 99.59 (99 hours
and 59 minutes);– after disconnecting/reconnecting the
battery.
IMPORTANT The reset operation in the
presence of the screens concerning the
“Trip A” makes it possible to reset only
the information associated with this func-
tion.

presence of the screens concerning the
“Trip B” makes it possible to reset only

tion.
