Fuel consumption
The cu rrent fue l consumption can be shown us-
ing a ba r graph
¢ fig . 8. The average consump-
tion stored in the short-term memory is also dis-
played. If the bar is green, your vehicle is saving
fuel through one of the following functions:
- Recuperation : electrical energy can be stored in
the vehicle battery when the vehicle is coasting
or driving downhill . The bar will move toward
0 .
- Cylinder on demand system*: the engine auto-
matically switches four cylinders
off when low-
er power output is required and other condi-
tions are met. This change is not noticeable to
the passengers.
