PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To bring an indication value of a fuel gage close to a detection value of a fuel residual amount detection part quickly in a case where the indication value is larger than the detection value.SOLUTION: A display apparatus includes: a fuel gage for displaying a fuel residual amount in a fuel tank; a fuel residual amount detection part for detecting the fuel residual amount; a fuel residual amount indication value calculation part for sequentially calculating an indication value of the fuel residual amount on the basis of the fuel residual amount; a display control part for causing a display of the fuel gage to update with the sequentially calculated indication value; and a fuel consumption amount calculation part for calculating a fuel consumption amount in an engine, the fuel consumption amount within a period for which the indication value is calculated by the fuel residual amount indication value calculation part. In a case where a previous indication value calculated previously is larger than the detection value of the fuel residual amount detected by the fuel residual amount detection part, the fuel residual amount indication value calculation part calculates an indication value by subtracting a subtraction value from the previous indication value, where the subtraction value is equal to or less than a sum of a difference between the previous indication value and the detection value and a most recent fuel consumption amount that is calculated by the fuel consumption amount calculation part and is larger than the aforementioned fuel consumption amount, and where the subtraction value increases with the difference between the previous indication and the detection value.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2
【課題】燃料計の指示値が燃料残量検出部の検出値より大きい場合に、指示値を速やかに検出値に近づける。【解決手段】燃料タンクの燃料残量を表示する燃料計と、燃料残量を検出する燃料残量検出部と、燃料残量に基づき、燃料残量の指示値を逐次算出する燃料残量指示値算出部と、逐次算出される指示値で燃料計の表示を更新させる表示制御部と、エンジンにおける燃料消費量であって、燃料残量指示値算出部により指示値が算出される間隔内での燃料消費量を算出する燃料消費量算出部と、を備え、燃料残量指示値算出部は、前回算出した前回指示値が燃料残量検出部により検出された燃料残量の検出値よりも大きい場合、燃料消費量算出部により算出された直近の燃料消費量よりも大きく且つ当該燃料消費量と、前回指示値と検出値との差との和以下である減算値であって、前回指示値と検出値との差が大きい程大きくなる減算値を前回指示値から減じて、指示値を算出する。【選択図】図2
