Range
(miles or km) This indicates the distance which can still be travelled with the fuel remaining in the tank in relation to the average fuel consumption over the last few miles (kilometres) travelled.
Current fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
This is the average fuel consumption duringthe last few seconds.
Average fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l) This is the average fuel consumption sincethe last trip computer zero reset.
Average speed

If dashes are displayed continuously while driving in place of the digits, contact a CITROËN dealer.
This function is only displayed from 20 mph (30 km/h).
When the range 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 (100 km).
