ro)
a time tripmeter (which shows the
elapsed riding time since last set
to zero)
a fuel reserve tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled since
the fuel level warning light came
on)
an oil change tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled since
the last engine oil change)a V-belt replacement tripmeter
(which shows the distance trav-
eled since the last V-belt replace-
ment)
Pushing the “TRIP” button switches
the display between the odometer
mode and the various tripmeter modes
in the following order:
Odo (odometer) → Trip (tripmeter) →
Trip Time (time tripmeter) → Oil (oil
change tripmeter) → V-Belt (v-belt re-
placement tripmeter) → Odo (odome-
ter)
When approximately 2.5 L (0.66 US
gal, 0.55 Imp.gal) of fuel remains in the
fuel tank, the display will automatically
change to the fuel reserve tripmeter
mode “F Trip” and start counting the
distance traveled from that point. In
that case, pushing the “TRIP” button
switches the display between the vari-
ous tripmeter and odometer modes in
the following order:
Odo → Trip → Trip Time → F Trip (fuel
reserve tripmeter) → Oil Trip → V-Belt

can be traveled on 1.0 Imp.gal of
fuel under the current riding condi-
tions is shown.
