Setting up the fuel manager

To start using the fuel manager you must first specify the total capacity of your fuel tanks, and then fill the tanks to set a reference level for the fuel manager.

From the Fuel set-up page: Homescreen > My Data > Fuel/Trip > Fuel set-up:
  1. Select the box next to Total fuel capacity: and enter the total capacity of all of your fuel tanks.

    Use the Up and Down arrows to adjust the fuel capacity, alternatively select the keypad icon located on the bottom right to open the onscreen keypad and enter the capacity.

  2. Select the box next to Economy units: and select either: Distance per volume, Volume per distance, or Litres per 100km.
  3. Select Detect fuel messages to detect which messages are available to your display.
  4. If detected, select your preferred measurement option:
    • Fuel used (PGN 127497) — Use this option if your engine(s) supplies fuel used data, for more accurate readings. Fuel manager can operate even when this display is switched off.

    • Fuel flow rate (PGN 127489) — Using flow rate, Fuel manager calculations will be estimated based on fuel flow data sent from your engine(s). This display must be switched on while engine(s) are running.

  5. Select the Fuel manager toggle switch to enable the fuel manager.
  6. Fill up your fuel tanks.
  7. Once the tanks are full, select Set all tanks full from the Fuel Trip menu.
  8. Log each subsequent fuel fill whether partial or full.
