TRIP COMPUTER
General features
The Trip computer is used to display information on
vehicle operation when the ignition key is turned
to MAR. This function allows you to define two
separate trips, called "Trip A" and "Trip B", for
monitoring the "complete mission" (journey) of the
vehicle in a reciprocally independent manner. Both
functions can be reset (start of a new journey).
“Trip A” is used to display the values relating to:
❒Outside temperature (for versions with outside
temperature sensor and methane-powered
vehicles)
❒Range
❒Distance travelled
❒Average consumption
❒Current consumption
❒Average speed
❒Travel time (driving time).
"Trip B", available on multifunction display only, is
used to display the values relating to:
❒Distance travelled B
❒Average consumption B
❒Average speed B
❒Travel time B (driving time).
“Trip B” may be disabled (see “Activating
Trip B”). “Range” and “Instant
consumption" parameters cannot be
reset .
Values displayed
Range
This indicates the distance which may be travelled
with the fuel in the tank assuming that driving style
does not change. The display will show the reading
“----“ when the following events take place:
❒range is lower than 50 km (or 30 mi)
❒vehicle is left parked with the engine running for a
long time.
IMPORTANT The range can be affected by several
factors: driving style (see “Driving style” in the
“Starting and driving” section), type of route
(motorway, towns and cities, mountain roads, etc.),
conditions of use (load, tyre pressures, etc.). Trip
planning must therefore take the above into account.
Distance travelled
This value shows the distance covered from the start
of the new journey.
