A few definitions…
Range
(miles or km)
This indicates the distance which
can still be travelled with the fuel remaining in the tank in relation to the
average fuel consumption over the
last few miles (kilometres) travelled.
This value may vary following a
change in the style of driving or
the relief, resulting in a signifi cant
change in the current fuel consumption.
When the range falls below 20 miles
(30 km), dashes are displayed. After
fi lling with at least 5 litres of fuel,
the range is recalculated and is dis-
played when it exceeds 60 miles
(100 km).
If dashes are displayed continuously while driving in place of the
digits, contact a CITROËN dealer.
Current fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
This is the average fuel consumption
during the last few seconds.
This function is only displayed from
20 mph (30 km/h).
Average fuel
consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
This is the average fuel consump-
tion since the last trip computer zero
reset.
Distance travelled
(miles or km)
This indicates the distance travelled
since the last trip computer zero reset.
Average speed
(mph or km/h)
This is the average speed calculated
since the last trip computer zero reset
(ignition on).
