The average speed will be shown after a distance of approximately 100
metres has been travelled. Dashes will appear in the display until that time.
The display will be updated every 5 seconds whilst the vehicle is in motion.
km - Trip
The display shows the distance travelled since the ignition was switched on.
The maximum display value in both memories is 9999 miles. The memory will
automatically be deleted once this value has been reached.
km - Distance to empty
The fuel range is calculated using the fi gures for tank content and current fuel
consumption. It shows how far the vehicle can travel using the same condi-

Ø litres/100km - Average fuel consumption
The average fuel consumption will be shown ⇒page 62, fig. 42 after a
distance of approximately 100 metres has been travelled. Dashes will appear

high if the needle is over the warning area on the dial. Stop the vehicle,
switch off the engine and wa it for it to cool down. Check the coolant level.
