Average fuel consumption
The average fuel consumption since the last reset. Reset using RESET.
Driving distance on current fuel reserve
This function shows the approximate distance that can be driven on the fuel remaining in the tank. The calculation is based on average fuel consumption during the last 20 miles (30 km) of driving and the amount of fuel remaining in the tank when the reading was taken. When the message ---- miles to empty tank appears in the display, refuel as soon as possible.
NOTE
The actual distance that can be driven on the usable fuel remaining in the tank may be influenced by a change in driving style.
