Wow I have not ever noticed that function on my overhead console just temp and direction like on a compass. Mine is 7 years older than yours, maybe that was added to the later models.

Look like fuel economy and a clock and looks like you average 19.4 kilometers to the liter. There is a button you can press and hold for a few seconds to reset the fuel economy.

With the odometer displayed, push and hold both buttons at the same time. This will reset the odometer, DTE displays.

Read it again, that is 19.4 L/100 KM. The lower the number, the better the economy. If we had one here, it would be mi/gal. The higher the number the better the economy.

BlueXJ: After spending over a year looking for a replacement module for mine. (1991) I can tell 90, 91, 92, didn't have that function. It was updated in 1993. (You can still get replacement modules from Mopar. But it's $696.00 At that price I would of rather custom fit a touch screen GPS Unit, Into the console.)
