Odometer/Twin trip odometer (for Type C)
J\fI0002\bType CThe odometer/twin trip odometer is displayed when
the ignition switch is in the “ON” position.
The odometer
*1displays the total distance the
vehicle has been driven. When the odometer displays,
the display of TRIP A and B disappears.
The twin trip odometer
*2displays the distance of
individual trips.
Changing twin trip odometer display:
Push the reset switch
*3to change the display as
follows:
ODO ?TRIP A ?TRIP B ?ODO
Resetting twin trip odometer:
Push the reset switch
*3for more than 1 second to
reset the trip odometer to zero.
For trip computer information, see “Trip computer (for
Type C)” (P.2-25) .
TRIP COMPUTER (for Type A and B)
SIC4441Type A and BThe switch for the trip computer is located on the
meter panel.
When the ignition switch is placed in the “ON”
position, modes of the trip computer can be selected
by pushing the trip computer mode switch
*A.
Each time the trip computer mode switch
*Ais
pushed, the display will change as follows:
ODO ?(TRIP A ?TRIP B) ?Current fuel
consumption ?Average fuel consumption ?Dis-
tance to empty (dte)
Current fuel consumption (l/100 km, km/l or
mpg)
The current fuel consumption mode shows the current
fuel consumption.
Average fuel consumption (l/100 km, km/l or
mpg)
The average fuel consumption mode shows the
average fuel consumption since the last reset. Reset-
ting is done by pushing the trip computer mode switch
*Afor longer than 1 second.
The display is updated every 30 seconds. At about the
first 500 m after a reset, the display shows “----”.
Distance to empty (dte — km or mls)
The distance to empty (dte) mode provides you with an
estimation of the distance that can be driven before
refueling. The dte is constantly being calculated, based
on the amount of fuel in the fuel tank and the actual fuel
consumption.
The display is updated every 30 seconds.
The dte mode includes a low range warning feature:
when the fuel level is low, the dte mode is automatically
selected and the digits blink in order to draw the
driver’s attention. Push the trip computer mode switch
*Ato return to the mode that was selected before the
warning occurred.
When the fuel level drops even lower, the dte display
will change to “----”.
. If the amount of fuel added is small, the
display just before the ignition switch is
turned off may continue to be displayed.
. When driving uphill or rounding curves, the
fuel in the tank shifts, which may momenta-
rily change the display.

F\b\f Type C: The fuel gauge
*Bindicates the app\f\bximate fuel level in the tank when the igniti\bn
