Trip computer - functions
The car's trip computer can record, calculate
and show information. It describes informa-
tion such as average consumption and aver-
age speed.
Average
Average fuel consumption is calculated from
the last resetting.
NOTE
There may be a slight error in the reading if
a fuel-driven heater* has been used.
Average speed
The average speed is calculated for the driv-
ing distance driven since the last reset to
zero.
Instantaneous.
The information for current fuel consumption
is updated continuously - approximately once
per second. When the car is driven at low
speed the consumption is shown per time
unit - at a higher speed it is shown related to
mileage.
Different units (km/miles) can be selected for
the display - see the heading "Change unit"
further down.
Range - distance to empty tank
The trip computer shows the approximate
distance that can be driven with the fuel
quantity remaining in the tank.
No guaranteed range remains when the head-
ing
Distance to empty shows "----".
In which case, refuel as soon as possible.
The calculation is based on the average fuel
consumption over the last 30 km and the
remaining driveable fuel quantity.
NOTE
There may be a slight error in the reading if
the driving style has been changed.
An economic driving style generally results in
a longer driving distance. For more informa-
tion on how fuel consumption can be influ-
enced, see Volvo Cars' environmental philos-
ophy (p. 20).
Digital speed display
31
The speed is shown in the opposite unit
(kmh/mph) of the main instrument panel. If it
is calibrated in mph then the trip computer
shows the corresponding speed in km/h and
vice versa.
Change unit
To change unit (metric/imperial) for distance
and speed - go to
MY CAR Settings
System options Distance and fuel units,
see MY CAR - System options (p. 111).
NOTE
In addition to in the trip computer, these
units are also changed in Volvo's naviga-
tion system*.
