SELECTING A STATION


The external environment (hill, building, tunnel, underground car park...) may interfere with the reception, including in RDS station tracking mode. This
phenomenon is a normal result of the way in which radio waves are transmitted and does not in any way indicate a fault with the audio system.


PRESETTING A STATION


Press one of the buttons on the
numerical keypad for 2 seconds to
preset the current station.
An audible signal confi rms that the
station has been preset.
The quality of reception is represented
by this symbol.

08 TRIP COMPUTER


Each press of the button, located on the steering
wheel, displays the different trip computer information
in succession, depending on the screen.


- the "vehicle " tab with:


●
the range, the current fuel consumption or the
Stop & Start time counter,

- the "1" tab (trip 1) with:


●
the average speed, the average fuel
consumption and the distance travelled
calculated over trip " 1
",

- the "2" tab (trip 2) with the same information for a
second trip.

Zero reset
When the required trip is displayed, press the control
for more than two seconds.


Range:
displays the distance which can travelled with the remaining fuel
detected in the tank, based on the average fuel consumption over the last
few miles (kilometres).
This displayed value may vary signifi cantly following a change in the
vehicle speed or the relief of the route.
When the range falls below 20 miles (30 km), dashes are displayed.
After fi lling with at least 5 litres of fuel, the range is recalculated and is
displayed when it exceeds 60 miles (100 km).
If, whilst driving, dashes are displayed continuously in place of the digits,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer.

A FEW DEFINITIONS



Current fuel consumption:
only calculated and displayed above 20 mph (30 km/h).



Average fuel consumption:
this is the average fuel consumption since
the last trip computer zero reset.


Distance travelled:
calculated since the last trip computer zero reset.


Average speed:
this is the average speed calculated since the last trip
computer zero reset (ignition on).








Stop & Start time counter
(minutes/seconds or hours/minutes)
If your vehicle is fi tted with Stop & Start, a time counter calculates the
time spent in STOP mode during a journey.
It resets to zero every time the ignition is switched on with the key.
