Driving Coach Setup
The Driving Coach is a special feature designed to be your fuel economy dashboard and information center. It provides real-time visual and audio
feedback about driving efficiency and where energy is being lost. The driving coach will help you understand the optimal conditions for your
particular vehicle through real-time observation, giving you the power to maximize your vehicle’s fuel economy.
Two hidden bonuses of driving more efficiently are: saving money on fuel and helping the environment!
Before the Driving Coach can give you accurate information, it is important to make sure that the GT is showing the correct speed. In the
sections below, you will find specific instructions for using the Driving Coach to become the best driver you can be.
Set Economy Goal
This option will allow you to select a fuel economy goal. The Driving Coach will use the economy goal to calculate your driving grade.
It is very important to select an economy goal that is realistic for both your vehicle and the kind of driving you will be doing. If you will be driving mainly
in the city or on the highway, choose a goal that is very close to the advertised fuel efficiency for your vehicle in that type of environment. If you will be
doing a mixture, choose an economy goal between the advertised city and highway mileage for your car.
Reset Average Economy
This option will clear the values stored in the GT for the average fuel economy, the number of gallons used, and the grade in the Driving Coach.
Adjust Acceleration
This option will allow you to select the GT sensitivity for the acceleration and deceleration for your vehicle.
Coach Sound Setup
This option will allow you to turn the Driving Coach sounds on or off.
Showing/Hiding the Driving Coach
The driving coach is always running, even if you choose not to have the information displayed. You can show or hide the driving coach on the Main
Display by holding one of the four bottom left buttons until the display cycles through to the gauge style that you want.
