The display shows the time you have covered since the memory was last re-
set. If you wish to measure the duration of a journey from a specific mo-
ment, the memory must be deleted ⇒ page 62.
The maximum time indicated by the two memories is 19 hours 59 minutes
or 99 hours and 59 minutes for vehicles fitted with an informative display.
The memory is reset if this value is exceeded.
Current fuel consumption
The current fuel consumption is indicated on the display in litres/100km
(miles) 1)
. You can adapt your driving style to the required consumption with
the assistance of this indicator.

Operating range
The approximate operating range is indicated in kilometres (miles) on the
display. It shows how far the vehicle can travel with the available fuel using
the same driving conditions as a reference.
The operating range is calculated in sections of 10 kilometres (miles). When
the fuel gauge enters the reserve zone, the operating range is displayed in
sections of 5 kilometres (miles).
The operating range is calculated based on the fuel consumption during the
last 50 kilometres (miles). The operating range increases when driving in a
more economical manner.
When the memory is reset (after disconnecting the battery), the operating
range is calculated with a 10 litres per 100 km (miles) consumption and ad-
justs to represent the current driving style.
Distance
The display shows the distance you have covered since the memory was last
reset ⇒ page 61. If you wish to measure the duration of a journey from a
specific moment, the memory must be deleted ⇒ page 62.
The maximum value for both memories is 1999 km (miles), or 9999 km
(miles) in vehicles fitted with an informative display. The memory is reset if
this value is exceeded.
Average speed
The display shows the average speed in km/h (mph) calculated from the
last time the memory was reset ⇒ page 61. If you wish to measure the aver-
age speed from a specific period, the memory must first be deleted
⇒  page 62.
While driving the first 300 m after deleting the memory this value is not
shown on the display.
The value is updated regularly while the vehicle is in motion. Driving speed
