Subaru Forester. ECO gauge (if equipped)

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.
