by used 100 kilometers traveled), your figure may be different than
displayed for the following reasons:
• your vehicle was not perfectly level during fill-up
• differences in the automatic shut-off points on the fuel pumps at

service stations

• variations in top-off procedure from one fill-up to another
• rounding off the displayed values to the nearest 0.1 gallon (liter)
