Trip computer – Supplementary information
General information for both Analog and Digi- tal trip computer functions.
Average fuel consumptionFuel consumption since the last time thisfunction was reset.
Average speedThe vehicle's average speed since the lasttime this function was reset.
Current fuel consumptionCurrent fuel consumption is calculatedapproximately once a second. When the vehi-cle is moving at low speed, fuel consumptionis displayed per unit of time. At higherspeeds, it is displayed in terms of distance. Miles or kilometers can be displayed, see the heading "Changing units".
Distance to emptyThis function shows the approximate dis-tance that can be driven on the fuel remaining in the tank. When
Distance to empty shows
"----", there is very little useable fuel remain- ing in that tank; refuel as soon as possible.The calculation is based on average fuel con-sumption during the last 20 miles (30 km) ofdriving and the amount of fuel remaining inthe tank (the accuracy of this figure may varyif your driving style changes). An economical driving style will generally increase this dis-tance. See Economical driving (p. 279) for informa- tion about driving economically.
Digital speed display*Speed is expressed in the unit not used bythe instrument panel's speedometer e.g., ifthe normal speedometer is in mph, the tripcomputer will display in the speed in km/hand vice versa.
