Tr ip reset
If dashes are displayed continuously while driving in place of the digits,contact a PEUGEOT dealer or aqualified workshop.

This function is only displayed from20 mph (30 km/h).
This value may vary following a change in the style of driving or the relief, resulting in a significant change in the current fuel consumption.
A few definitions…

Range
(miles or km)
This indicates the distance whichcan still be travelled with the fuel
remaining in the tank in relation
to the average fuel consumptionover the last few miles (kilometres) travelled.
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).
Current fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)This is the average fuel consumption
during the last few seconds.

Average fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
This is the average fuelconsumption since the last tripcomputer zero reset.
Average speed
(mph or km/h)
This is the average speed calculated
since the last trip computer zero reset
(ignition on).
)When the trip required is displayed, press
the control for more than two seconds or make a long press on the left hand thumb
wheel of the steering mounted controls.
Trips "1"
and "2"are independent but their useis identical.
For example, trip "1"
can be used for daily figures, and trip "2"
for monthly figures.
