When the ignition switch has been set to the “ACC” or
“LOCK” position for about 4 hours or more, the average
fuel consumption display will automatically reset.
NOTE

The average speed display and the average fuel consump-
tion display can be reset separately in both auto reset
mode and manual reset mode.


“---” is displayed when the average fuel consumption can-
not be measured.


The initial (default) setting is “Auto reset mode”.


Average fuel consumption may vary depend on the driv-
ing conditions (road conditions, how you drive, etc.) The
actual fuel consumption may differ from the fuel con-
sumption displayed, so treat the fuel consumption dis-
played as just a rough guideline.


Disconnecting the battery cable will erase from memory
the manual reset mode or auto reset mode setting for the
average fuel consumption display.


The display setting can be changed to the preferred units
{mpg(US), mpg(UK), L/100km or km/L}.
Refer to “Changing the function settings (With ignition
switch in the “ON” position)” on page 3-180.
Momentary fuel consumption displayWhile driving, the momentary fuel consumption is shown with
a bar graph.
When the momentary fuel consumption surpasses the average
fuel consumption, the momentary fuel consumption is dis-
played with a green bar graph. (Type 2)
Be conscious of maintaining the momentary fuel consumption
above the average fuel consumption, it can help you drive with
the better fuel consumption.
