Fuel gauge

The fuel gauge in the instrument panel shows
the fuel level in the tank.

Fuel gauge in 12" instrument panel:

The beige area in the fuel gauge indicates the
amount of fuel left in the tank.

Fuel gauge in 8" instrument panel:

The bars in the fuel gauge indicate the amount of
fuel left in the tank.

When the fuel level is low and it is time to refuel,
the fuel pump symbol will illuminate with an
amber-colored light. The trip computer also indi-
cates the approximate distance driven on the fuel
remaining in the tank. When the fuel level is criti-
cally low, only an amber bar will be displayed.
Refuel as soon as possible.

Trip computer

The vehicle's trip computer registers data while
driving such as mileage, fuel consumption and
average speed.

To help promote fuel-efficient driving, data is
recorded on both current and average fuel con-
sumption. Data from the trip computer can be
displayed in the instrument panel.

DISPLAYS AND VOICE CONTROL

* Option/accessory.

12" instrument panel*.

8-inch instrument panel.

The trip computer includes the following gauges:

•

Trip odometer

•

Odometer

•

Current fuel consumption

•

Distance to empty tank

•

Tourist - alternative speedometer

Unit standards for distance, speed, etc. can be
changed via system settings in the center display.

Trip odometer

There are two trip odometers: TM and TA.

TM can be reset manually and TA is reset auto-
matically if the vehicle is not used for four hours.

During a drive, the trip odometer registers data
on:

•

Mileage

•

Driving time

•

Average speed

•

Average fuel consumption

The readings since the trip odometer's last reset
are displayed.

Odometer

The odometer records the vehicle's total mileage.
This reading cannot be reset.

Current fuel consumption

This gauge shows the vehicle's fuel consumption
at that moment. The reading is updated about
once a second.

Distance to empty tank

The trip computer calculates the distance that
can be driven on the fuel remaining in the tank.

This calculation is based on average fuel con-
sumption during the last 30 km (20 miles) and
the amount of fuel remaining in the tank.

When the gauge displays "----", there is not
enough fuel remaining to calculate the remaining
mileage. Refuel as soon as possible.

NOTE

This may vary if your driving style changes.

An economical driving style will generally
increase how far you can drive on a certain
amount of fuel.

Tourist - alternative speedometer

The alternative digital speedometer makes it eas-
ier to drive in countries where speed limit signs
are shown in a different measurement unit than
the one shown in the vehicle's gauges.

When used, the digital speed is displayed in the
opposite unit to that shown in the analog speed-
ometer. If mph is used in the analog speedome-
ter, the equivalent speed in km/h will be shown
in the digital speedometer.
