Tr ip computer, a few definitions
Range
(miles or km)The distance which can still be
travelled with the fuel remainingin the tank. Related to theaverage fuel consumption over
the last few miles (kilometres)
travelled.
Current fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l) Calculated over the last few seconds.


Average fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
Calculated since the last trip
computer reset.
Average speed
(mph or km/h)Calculated since the last trip computer reset.

Distance travelled
(miles or km)
Calculated since the last tripcomputer reset.

When the ran
ge falls below 20 miles (30 km),
dashes are displayed. After filling with at least 5 litres of fuel, the range is recalculated and is
displayed when it exceeds 60 miles (10 0 km).


Distance remaining to destination
(miles or km)
This is the distance remaining to be
travelled to the final destination. Itcan be entered by the user.
If the distance is not entered, dashes
are displayed in place of the digits.

Stop & Start time counter
(minutes / seconds or hours /

ignition is switched on with the key.



If dashes are displayed continuously while driving in place of the digits, contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.


This value may vary following a changein the style of driving or the relief,resulting in a significant change in thecurrent fuel consumption.
