Fuel

Set current fuel price, and adjust consumption estimates according to vehicle.

Fuel Price

Fuel prices fluctuate throughout the year.

This setting allows you to adjust the fuel

prices according to current prices.
Currency options include Dollar ($), Euro

(€), British Pound (₤), Swiss Franc (₣),

and Danish Krone (kr).

Pricing for fuel volumes can be set as either ‘per gallon (US)’ or ‘per liter’.

Consumption

The consumption section allows you to set your vehicle’s fuel consumption. This fuel

consumption will then be used in the cost estimate for your trip.

Most modern vehicles include a fuel economy label which describes the vehicle’s

fuel economy ratings. Alternatively, to find out your vehicle’s fuel consumption, please see

the ‘Fuel Economy Guide’ at

www.fueleconomy.gov

. This guide is published by the U.S.

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). It contains

an extensive listing of most vehicle makes and models.

Vehicle consumption is typically expressed as two fuel economy estimates:

• City: represents urban driving and driving in stop and-go rush hour traffic. City

driving typically consumes more fuel than highway driving.

• Highway: represents driving on a mixture of rural and interstate highway driving,

typical of longer trips in free-flowing traffic.

Note

Please be aware that the actual fuel cost may vary according to other factors which affect

the fuel consumption; for example, driver behavior, driving conditions, vehicle maintenance,

fuel characteristics, and weather. The cost estimate is an estimate of fuel costs only. Other

costs, such as Toll charges are not included in the calculation.

Your journey’s fuel cost estimate will appear on the ‘Route Summary’ page.
You can access this screen via [Menu] > [My Route] > [Route Summary].
