Instruments and controls

Tr i p r e s e t

If dashes are displayed continuously
while driving in place of the digits,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop. This function is only displayed from
20 mph (30 km/h).
This value may vary following a change
in the style of driving or the relief,
resulting in a significant change in the
current fuel consumption.






A few definitions…


Range

(miles or km)
This indicates the distance
which can still be travelled with
the fuel remaining in the tank
in relation to the average fuel
consumption over the last few
miles (kilometres) travelled.
When the range falls below 20 miles (30 km),
dashes are displayed. After filling with at least
5 litres of fuel, the range is recalculated and is
displayed when it exceeds 60 miles (100 km).

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
consumption since the last trip
computer zero reset.


Average speed

(mph or km/h)
This is the average speed calculated
since the last trip computer zero reset
(ignition on).



)
When the trip required is displayed, press
the control for more than two seconds
or use the left hand thumbwheel of the
steering mounted controls.
Trips "1"
and "2"
are independent but their use
is identical.
For example, trip "1"
can be used for daily
figures, and trip "2"
for monthly figures.
