Display Guidance

I have gone through the manual and not sure where to find this info if it’s even available. I have on my dash the fuel economy and it seems to switch from trip fuel economy and gals per hour. I’m trying to figure out how to get the total estimated fuel economy for the tank but don’t see how to find it or set it in the display.

The top button on the end of the indicator stalk will scroll through the 4 different fuel consumption modes (since trip reset, for the current trip, since refuel and lifetime). When the car is stationary it will show idling fuel consumption in litres/hour or gallons/hour, while moving it will show mpg, l/100km or km/l. The "since refuel" will be the average consumption since the tank was filled.

Yes, I did that too but didn’t realize at the time it was the button press. I was also trying to change it while stopped which the mpg since refueling changes to gallons per hour. Not sure why it changes but it does. Once you start moving again, the mpgs show up. That’s why I couldn’t figure it out. I didn’t want to fiddle with settings while driving.
