To reset the trip mileage recorder,
the display must show the “trip

Automatic resetting will occur
when the maximum of any of the
memories is exceeded.3Display selection key
Press button3repeatedly to
scroll through the following
information:
a) total mileage recorder,
b) trip mileage recorder,
c) fuel used,
d) average consumption,
e) current consumption,
f) estimated range,
g) distance covered,
h) average speed,
i) recommended speed (speed
limiter/cruise control).
Refer to the chart on the following
page for display examples.
Interpreting certain values
displayed after a reset:
The values showing average fuel
consumption, range and average
speed will become more stable
and reliable the further you travel
since the last time the reset key
was pressed.In the first few miles after resetting,
you may notice:
• that the range increases as you
drive. This is normal as the
average consumption may reduce
when:
- the vehicle is no longer
accelerating,
- the engine reaches normal
operating temperature (reset
when engine was cold),
- you drive from a built up area to
the open road.
If average consumption is
decreased, the expected range
will therefore increase.
• average consumption increases
when the vehicle is stationary
and idling.
This is normal as the computer
takes into account the fuel used
during idling.
