TRIP COMPUTER
General information
The Trip computer is used to display
information on vehicle operation when
the ignition key is turned to MAR.
This function allows you to define two
separate trips, called "Trip A" and
"Trip B", for monitoring the "complete
mission" (journey) of the vehicle in a
reciprocally independent manner. Both
functions can be reset (reset means
start of a new journey).
"Trip A" can be used to display the
values relating to:
External temperature
Range
Travel Distance
Average fuel consumption
Current Consumption
Average Speed
Trip time (driving time).
"Trip B", available on multifunction
display only, is used to display the
values relating to:
Travel Distance B
Average Fuel Consumption B
Average Speed B
Trip time B (driving time).
11)
Values displayed
Range (for versions/markets, where
provided)
This indicates the distance that can still
be travelled with the fuel in the tank,
assuming that driving style remains
unvaried. The display will show the
reading '-----' when the following
events take place:
range is lower than 50 km (or 30 mi)
vehicle is left parked with the engine
running for a long time.
WARNING The range can be affected
by several factors: driving style
(see “Driving style” in the “Starting
and driving” section), type of route
(motorway, towns and cities, mountain
roads, etc.), conditions of use (load,
tyre pressures, etc.). Trip planning must
therefore take the above into account.
Travel Distance
This value shows the distance travelled
from the start of the new journey.
Average fuel consumption
This value shows the approximate
average fuel consumption from the
start of the new journey.
Current Consumption
This value shows the fuel consumption.
The value is constantly updated. The
message “----” will appear on the
display if the vehicle is parked with the
engine running.
Average Speed
Represents the vehicle average speed
as a function of the overall time elapsed
since the start of a new mission.
Travel Time
Time elapsed since the start of the new
journey.
WARNING If there is no information,
the Trip computer displays "----"
in place of the value. When normal
operating conditions are restored,
the counting of the various values is
resumed, without either zeroing the
values displayed prior to the problem,
or starting a new mission.
TRIP control button
The TRIP button is located on the right
stalk fig. 134. With the ignition key
turned to MAR-ON, this button allows
you to view the previously described
values and also zero them to begin a
new journey:
brief press to access the various
values displays;
long press to reset and then start a
new mission.
