Trip Computer

2
When a trip computer feature is selected, it will be displayed
until switched off or until another trip computer feature is
selected. However, note that the message centre is also used
to display warning messages and these will automatically
override the trip computer display (see ‘Warning messages’ later
in this section).
Trip distance
The trip computer has a second trip recorder ‘trip distance 2’,
that provides an additional distance record to the standard trip
recorder.
Distance to tank empty (‘range’)
NOTE: The distance to tank
empty cannot be reset manually.
This function is automatic and displays the remaining distance
you can travel before the fuel gauge reads empty. The
distance will change when the car is refuelled.
The ‘range’ calculation is based on a combination of current
driving style, and the fuel consumption recorded by the
computer during the previous few minutes.
Average fuel consumption
This function is automatic and indicates the average fuel
consumption since the last time the trip computer was reset
(average fuel consumption is calculated by dividing the
distance travelled by the amount of fuel used). The
consumption value can be reset at any time to begin
calculating new consumption values for a particular journey
or driving conditions.
Average speed
This function is automatic and indicates the average speed
since the last time it was reset (average speed is calculated by
dividing the actual distance travelled by the accumulated time
in which the starter switch has been turned on).
The average speed can be reset at any time to begin
calculating a new average speed value for a particular journey
or driving condition.
