Average fuel consumption

Average fuel consumption

1) U.S.-spec. models
2) Except U.S.-spec. models

This indication shows the average rate of fuel consumption since the trip meter was last reset.

When either of the trip meter indications is reset, the corresponding average fuel consumption value is also reset.

NOTE
- The indicated values vary in accordance with changes in the vehicle’s running conditions. Also, the indicated values may differ slightly from the actual values and should thus be treated only as a guide.

- When either trip meter indication is reset, the average fuel consumption corresponding to that trip meter indication is not shown until the vehicle has subsequently covered a distance of 1 mile (or 1 km).
