current fuel consumption.
If there are less than 3 litres of fuel in
the tank, only three segments will be
displayed. Average consumption
This is the ratio between the amount
of fuel consumed and the distance
travelled since the computer was last
reset to zero.

ignition on), since the computer was
last reset to zero.Distance travelled
This shows the distance travelled
since the computer was last reset to
zero.
After the trip computer has been
