Trip computer & overspeed warning
114
Average fuel consumption
This function is automatic and indicates the
average fuel consumption since the last time
the trip computer was reset (average fuel
consumption is calculated by dividing the
distance travelled by the amount of fuel used).
While the system is calculating the average
fuel consumption, the display shows
’COMPUTING MPG’. Once the fuel
consumption value is calculated, ’AVERAGE
MPG’ will be displayed, and a 3 digit fuel
consumption value (shown in tens, units and
tenths of a gallon) also appears in the display.
NOTE: The displayed value will not change at
a rate greater than 0.1 mpg per 3 seconds
(0.1 litres/100 km per 6 seconds), and will be
between 0 and 99.9 mpg (0 and 99.9
litres/100 km).
Average speed
This function is automatic and indicates the
average speed since the last time the trip
computer was reset (average speed is
calculated by dividing the actual distance
travelled by the accumulated time in which the
starter switch has been turned on).
While the system is calculating the average
speed, the display will show ’COMPUTING
MPH’. Once the calculation has been made,
the display changes to ’AVG. SPEED’ followed
by 3 digits indicating the average speed in
hundreds, tens and units.
NOTE: The Average Speed display will change
at a maximum rate of 1 mph per 2 seconds.
Trip distance two
This function records the distance over which
the average fuel consumption and speed have
been calculated, and will always be the
distance the vehicle has travelled since the
computer was last reset. The message centre
displays ’TRIP2---’.
Trip distance one
This is a standard trip recorder of the type
fitted to most motor vehicles and records the
distance travelled since the reset button (on
the right of the instrument pack) was last
pressed. Press the reset button to zero the trip
recorder. If the message display shows an
internal or trip computer message, it can be
changed to display the Trip Distance One
function by operating the trip recorder reset
button. The message centre displays the
distance only (without ’TRIP1---’).
