5-14 Instruments and Controls
English
The gauge shows the fuel usage
that the vehicle is currently
achieving in MPG and in liters
per 100 kilometers (¹/100 km).
MIN/20: Is when the least efficient
fuel economy usually occurs during
acceleration or when idling.
MAX/¹/100: Is when the best fuel
economy is being achieved.
This gauge moves often as it is an
instantaneous calculation based on
current driving conditions.
Turbo Gauge (2.8L Only)
For vehicles with a turbo gauge, it
indicates when the vehicle is using
turbo power. When the needle is at rest at
the left of the gauge, turbo is not
being used.
As the accelerator peddle is
pressed the needle may move
to the right. This is normal and
means that the vehicle is using
turbo power. Under normal
conditions the needle will not
display a reading in the red.
Once the driver eases off
the accelerator pedal or the
transmission shifts, the needle
moves back into the left area
of the gauge.
