Average fuel consumption
This mode calculates the average fuel
consumption from the total fuel used and
the distance since the last average con-
sumption reset. The total fuel used is cal-
culated from the fuel consumption input.
For an accurate calculation, drive more
than 50 m.
Pressing the TRIP button for more than 1
second, when the average fuel consump-
tion is being displayed, clears the aver-
age fuel consumption to zero (----).Distance to empty
This mode indicates the estimated dis-
tance to empty based on the current fuel
in the fuel tank and the amount of fuel
delivered to the engine.
When the remaining distance is below 50
km, “----” will be displayed and the dis-
tance to empty indicator will blink.
The meter’s working range is from 50 to
999 km.ECO ON/OFF mode (if equipped)
You can turn the ECOMINDERTMindica-
tor on/off on the instrument cluster in this
mode.
If you push the TRIP button more than 1
second in the ECO ON mode, ECO OFF
is displayed and the ECOMINDER
TMindi-
cator turns off.
If you want to display the ECOMINDER
TM
indicator again, press the TRIP button
more than 1 second in the ECO OFF
mode and then ECO ON mode is dis-
played.
