Total/trip distance recorder

When you switch on the ignition, the instrument panel shows the distance recorder that was selected when you last switched off the engine. You can switch between the two displays with button 1.

  • ODO: the total distance (odometer).
  • TRIP: the trip recorder.
  1. Change display: press button 1 to alternate between ODO and TRIP.
  2. Reset the trip: while the trip recorder is displayed, press one of the two buttons 1 to reset it to zero.

Fuel level indicator

The fuel level indicator shows how much fuel is in the tank.

  • 1/1 and six bars: the tank is full.
  • R and one bar: the fuel in the tank is at the reserve level.

Low fuel level: when the fuel in the tank reaches a low level, a warning lamp comes on in the instrument panel and you hear an audible warning. You have about 5 litres of fuel left.

If you run out of fuel, you must add at least 5 litres of fuel to the tank.
