ner. Both functions can be reset (reset - start of new mission).
“Trip A” can be used to display figures relating to:

– Average fuel consumption
– Instantaneous fuel consumption
– Average speed
– Travel time (driving time).
The “Trip B” function is used to display information relating to:

– Average speed B
– Travel time B (driving time).
“Trip B” functions may be excluded (see paragraph on “Trip B on”).
“Range” and “Instantaneous fuel consumption” cannot be reset.
