Hello and welcome to the forum!

Wait for the guys from Canada to log in and they 'll help you out with the measurements in metrics (km per liter) if that was your question.

ODO I'm pretty sure is the odometer. I don't use Trip A and B but I believe one is for the total mileage on the car and the other one is to measure just a short trip.

Wait for the guys who know the car inside out to log in, they'll help you out.

Greetings from San Francisco, California! :thumbsup:

Trip A is a reading from when you reset it until the next time it is reset. Trip B is the same, but just another trip meter. ODO is your odometer, showing you the total mileage of the car. It cannot be reset.

I have a 1.5l engine in mine, not sure what you have, but I can go up to 350 miles until I have 2 bars left on the fuel gauge. That equates to 563 kms. I usually fill up at a quarter since it's bad to go down to when the last bar blinks.

Welcome to yaris world! If you need to know stuff about your Yaris then this is the place to ask.:thumbup:

P.S I get about 620-640Kms with my Yaris.

The odometer tracks the total distance the car's travelled, and the two trip meters can be used to simultaneously track two distances. Let's say I go on a long trip that'll require several fillups and want to check the mileage (we use miles here) at each fillup and the overall average. I can zero both trip meters when I start out, let one keep running for the whole trip, but reset one each time I fill the tank. I can easily use the trip mileage on each tank to figure that tank's mileage, and total up all the fuel to divide into the total trip mileage for the average.

N.America gets the 1.5 liter engine/Metric calibrations in Canada and some old system in the USA:wink:, with easy driving habits 600 kilometers per tank is easily obtained during the summer,winter i'm looking for a gas station at 500kms,on a summer day doing 100kms nonstop driving i'm sure i could get 800kms out of a tank.
The 2 trip odometers? Normally i just reset them both when i fill up with gas but when i'm on a trip i leave one of them alone so as to record total trip distance.
Welcome.

I reset Trip A at each fuel fill-up and leave this display visible all the time.
I reset Trip B at each oil change.

Good idea if you are trying to remember odd mileage numbered oil change intervals:thumbsup:. i just change the oil every multiple of 10k so its easy to remember,just changed oil at 50k kms next one goes down at 60k kms.
