Subaru Forester: Meters and gauges / ECO gauge (if equipped)
![Subaru Forester. ECO gauge (if equipped)](images/eco_gauge_if_equipped_-1669/1480/subaru_forester_eco_gauge_if_equipped__311.gif)
The ECO gauge shows the difference
between the current rate of fuel consumption
and the average rate of fuel consumption
since the trip meter was last reset.
If the ECO gauge moves towards the +
side, this indicates better fuel efficiency.
NOTE
- The ECO gauge shows only an
approximate indication of fuel efficiency.
- After resetting the trip meter, the
average rate of fuel consumption is not
shown until you have driven for 1 mile
(or 1 km). Before that time, the ECO
gauge does not operate.
Meter and vehicle settings can be set on
the combination meter...
