Gauges
The context: Please show them the switch for toggling through the trip odometer and range to empty.
Should be read: [trip odometer and range] [to empty] or else? Yet, isn't odometer for gauging range?
But, however it should be read, I have absolutely no idea what to empty> means. A kind of resetting the gauge?
Thanks a lot for your help.

: Yes, of course, I used to have this function on my Audi: how much fuel is left in your tank, expressed in terms of a range in miles or kilometres.
