TRIP COMPUTER - DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
The Trip Computer shows vehicle trip, fuel consumption and mileage details on the control panel display.
There are two fully independent Trip Computer modes (A and B); the displays can be activated by pressing the TRIP button on the right-hand lever of the steering wheel interface.
The data display mode follows a preset order:
TRIP A:
- Range - Distance travelled - Average fuel consumption - Instantaneous fuel consumption - Average speed - Trip time.
TRIP B:
- Distance travelled - Average fuel consumption - Average speed - Trip time.
Both functions can be zeroed (reset - start of a new journey).
Trip B is a function that can be excluded via the instrument panel Set-up menu, by operating the buttons on the right-hand side of the panel.

Trip Computer data is calculated inside the instrument panel.
The instrument panel is a CAN node through which information is exchanged with the Body Computer and with the other electronic units.
This diagram shows the operation of instrument panel functions that also affect the Trip Counter.
