TRIP COMPUTER - DESCRIPTION

1.4 8v, 1.6 16v, 1.3 JTD 16V, 1.9 JTD 8V · from 12/03 · MY 2005

The Trip Computer shows vehicle trip, consumption and mileage details on the control panel display.

On versions with a COMFORT panel, two types of fully independent Trip Computer modes (A and B) are available for the Comfort panel. The displays can be activated by pressing the TRIP button on the right steering wheel stalk switch.

Only the Trip A mode is available for the MODAL and STRIP panels.

Instantaneous consumption cannot be displayed on the STRIP panel.

On these last two versions, the display can be activated by pressing the key on the right steering wheel stalk (MODALE) or directly on the control panel (STRIP).

For the STRIP panel, used only for the Natural Power - 1596 16V BPW version, mean fuel consumption is calculated only for petrol fuel consumption.

The data display mode follows a preset order:

TRIP A:

- Range [km] or [miles]:

- Distance travelled [km] or [miles]:

- Average fuel consumption [Km/l]

- Instant consumption [l/100 km] or [mpg]:

- Average speed [km/h] or [mph]:

- Journey time [hh:mm]:

TRIP B (COMFORT version only)

- Distance travelled [km] or [miles]:

- Average fuel consumption [Km/l]

- Average speed [km/h] or [mph]:

- Journey time [hh:mm]:

These values are available due to instantaneous mileage, fuel level and fuel tank capacity information received and managed by the body computepr, instantaneous fuel consumption information received by the engine management control unit and, lastly, the journey time managed by an internal clock.

All information appears individually in the display

The TRIP key (stalk or instrument panel) can be used to zero the parameter on view at that time and also to move on to the next parameter.

The two keys to the right of the panel can also be used to adjsut the time shown on the display. The STRIP version includes only one adjustment key.

The wiring diagram describes the operation of the signals used to display the Trip Computer data.
