fuel consumption may decrease
when:
- The car stops accelerating.
- The engine reaches its operating

- When you drive from a built up
area on to the open road.
Therefore, if the average fuel
consumption decreases, the range
will increase.

average fuel consumption
increases when the vehicle is
stationary and the engine idling.
This is normal since the module
takes account of fuel used during
idling.
