Trip computer (option)
The trip computer stores information gathered from several systems in your car and has four menus (five
on Canadian models) that can be shown in the information display.
●
Driving distance on current fuel reserve
●
Average fuel consumption
●
Current fuel consumption
●
Average speed
NOTE: Current speed in m.p.h. (Canadian models only)
NOTE: Warning messages from the car's monitoring systems will override the trip computer function.
If a warning message is shown in the information display while you are using the trip computer, you
must acknowledge the message by pressing the READ button (A). Press button A again to return to the
trip computer function.
Controls
The four trip computer functions (five on Canadian models) can be accessed by twisting INFO (B) one
step at a time in either direction. Twisting a fifth time (sixth time on Canadian models) returns you to the
original function.
The trip computer can be reset (average fuel consumption and average speed will be erased from system
memory) by pressing RESET (C) for at least five seconds.
Driving distance on current fuel reserve
This function shows the approximate distance that can be driven on the fuel remaining in the tank. This
calculation is based on average fuel consumption during the last 20 miles (30 km) of driving and the
amount of fuel remaining in the tank when the reading was taken. When the driving distance on current
fuel reserve is less than 12 miles (20 km), "---" will be displayed in the information display.
