Subject: fuel consumption on SID


I bought a 2003 Saab 9-5 four months ago and, apparently, havent's discovered all the small details yet. Until today, when I switched SID to fuel consumption it showed "average consumption" which was easy to tell cuz the figures remained pretty stable throughout a trip. However, as of today the SID's showing "real-time consumption" and figures change virtually every couple of seconds from 20 liters per 100 km at the start to 6 liters fifteen minutes later, back to 10 liters etc, which I find pretty confusing. My manual is in German, which I don't speak. The one I downloaded from the Internet is for the US version and doesn't mention the possibility of switching between average and real-time consumption modes. Any help greatly appreciated. Best regards TW
