The distance which can still be
travelled with the fuel remaining in
the tank (related to the average fuel
consumption over the last few miles
(kilometres) travelled).

This value may vary following a change
in the style of driving or the relief,

5 litres of fuel, the range is recalculated and is
displayed when it exceeds 60 miles (100 km).

If dashes are displayed continuously
while driving in place of the digits,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.

This function is only displayed from
20 mph (30 km/h).
