theoretical value determined from vehicle speed and position information from the navigation system. The fuel mileage dis played is only a reference value, and does not guarantee the mileage displayed can be obtained.

! The eco friendly driving functions are an es

timate of the real time fuel consumption to average fuel consumption ratio and is not an actual value.

! The eco friendly driving functions and cal

culations take into consideration the loca tion of the GPS position and speed of the vehicle in determining a value.
