Values Displayed
Range
This indicates the distance which may be travelled with
the fuel in the tank assuming that driving conditions will
not change. The message “----” will appear on the display
in the following cases:
•
Value lower than 30 miles (or 50 km)
•
The car is parked with the engine running for a long
time.
NOTE:
The range depends on several factors: driving
style, type of route (freeway, residential, mountain roads,
etc…), conditions of use of the car (load, tire pressure,
etc…). Trip planning must take into account the above
