Fuel Cost Screen
The Fuel Cost screen allows ScanGauge to track accurate trip fuel costs. Use the upper left and right
function buttons to adjust the fuel cost. When you’re done, press SAVE
There will be variations in the agreement of the pump fuel used and the ScanGauge indicated fuel use
from tank to tank due to:
•
Different shutoff levels of the fuel pumps
•
Different tilt of the vehicle at the fuel pump due to ground slope or vehicle loading
•
Different temperature of the fuel (changes density – best to refill in the morning when the fuel is
colder)
•
Variations in vehicle sensors due to temperature and time
•
Pump accuracy limits
These are just some of the variables that limit absolute accuracy and show why you should never trust
a low reading of DISTANCE in the Tank to Empty Trip to believe you will be able to make it to the next
gas station.
Important Considerations
You should refill the vehicle when there is above 50 miles/km remaining. Pushing below 50 could
result in running out of fuel.
When filling your tank, let the pump shut off automatically. Do not top off.
To maintain the most accurate TO EMPTY information in the ScanGauge’s trip computers, you
should fill your tank to capacity.
