dashes are displayed. After filling with at least 5 litres of fuel, the range is recalculated and is
displayed when it exceeds 60 miles (10 0 km).
This function is only displayed from20 mph (30 km/h).
Current fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)This is the average fuel consumption
during the last few seconds.
Average fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
This is the average fuel
