Driving your vehicle

Distance to empty (km or MI)

This mode indicates the estimated dis-
tance to empty from the current fuel in
the fuel tank. When the remaining dis-
tance is below 50 km (30 miles), a blink-
ing “---” symbol will be displayed.
Trip computer recognizes only the
amount of fuel consumed to the engine.
Therefore if the vehicle happens to
abnormal oil leakage, the trip computer
fails to sense causing the amount of fuel
more than it really is.

If you press the “DOWN” switch for more
than 5 seconds, the distance unit would
transfer to “Km” from “Ml (mile) or “MI” from
“Km”.

NOTICE

• If the vehicle is not on level ground or

the battery power has been interrupt-
ed, the “DISTANCE TO EMPTY”
function may not operate correctly.
The trip computer may not register
additional fuel if less than 6 liters of
fuel are added to the vehicle.

• Trip computer provides a driver with

supplemental information about the
current operating status of your vehi-
cle. So the estimated distance to empty
can be changed according to operat-
ing status of your vehicle, average fuel
consumption and previously driving
style. Therefore the values approved
or displayed on LCD for the first time
can be different with your vehicles.

• The figure of distance to empty is esti-

mated driving distance, so it can be
different from the driving distance
really is.

Average vehicle speed
(km/h or MPH)

This mode indicates the average speed
from the starting of the vehicle to the igni-
tion key “OFF”. When the “MODE/SET”
switch is pushed (more than 1.5 sec-
onds), it will initialize to “---”.

If you press the “DOWN” switch for more
than 5 seconds, the speed unit would
transfer to “Km/h” from “MPH” or “MPH”
from “Km/h” .
