Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Memory 12
Operation 13
Multifunction display details 13
Warning against excessive speeds 14
The multifunction display can only be operated when the ignition is switched on.
After the ignition is switched on, the function displayed is the one which you last
selected before switching off the ignition.
The multi-functional indicator appears in the display » Fig. 5
on page 12 or in the
information display » page 15 depending on the equipment fitted to your vehi-
cle.
On vehicles with an information display, there is an option to fade out some of
the information. WARNING
■ Concentrate fully at all times on your driving! As the driver you are fully re-
sponsible for the operation of your vehicle.
■ Do not only rely upon the information given on the outside temperature dis-
play that there is no ice on the road. Even at temperatures around +4 °C, black
ice may still be on the road surface – warning, drive with care! CAUTION
Pull out the ignition key if coming in contact with the display (e.g. when cleaning)
to prevent any possible damage. Note
■ In certain national versions the displays appear in the Imperial system of meas-
ures. ■ If the display of the second speed is activated in mph, the current speed is not
indicated in km/h on the display.
■ The amount of fuel consumed will not be indicated. Ð Memory
Fig. 5
Multifunction display
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 12.
The multifunction display is equipped with two automatic memories. The selected
memory is shown in the Display » Fig. 5.
The data of the single-trip memory (memory 1) is shown if a 1 appears in the dis-
play. A 2 shown in the display means that data relates to the total distance mem-
ory (memory
2).
Switching over the memory with the help of the button B
» Fig. 6 on page 13
on the windscreen wiper lever or with the help of the adjustment wheel D
» Fig. 6 on page 13 on the multifunction steering wheel.
Single-trip memory (memory 1)
The single-trip memory collates the driving information from the moment the ig-
nition is switched on until it is switched off. New data will also flow into the cal-
culation of the current driving information if the trip is continued within 2 hours
after switching off the ignition. If the trip is interrupted for more than 2 hours,
the memory is automatically erased. £
ä
12 Using the system
Page 15 of 225
Total-trip memory (memory 2)
The total-trip memory gathers data from any number of individual journeys up to
a total of 19
hours and 59 minutes driving or 1 999 kilometres driven, and on vehi-
cles which are fitted with an information display up to a total of 99 hours and
59 minutes driving or 9 999 kilometres driven. The memory is deleted when ei-
ther of these limits is reached and the calculation starts all over again.
Unlike the single-trip memory, the total-trip memory is not deleted after a period
of interruption of driving of 2 hours. Note
All information in the memory 1 and 2 is erased if the battery of the vehicle is dis-
connected. ÐOperation

ings on page 12.
Outside temperature
The current outside temperature is shown in the display.
If the outside temperature drops below +4
°C, a snow flake symbol (warning sig-
nal for ice on the road) appears before the temperature indicator and an audible
signal will sound. After pressing the rocker switch A
» Fig. 6 on page 13 or the
button C
, the function shown last is indicated.
Driving time
The driving time which has elapsed since the memory was last erased, appears in
the display. If you wish to measure the driving time from a particular time, you
need to set the memory to zero at this point in time by pressing the button B
» Fig. 6 on page 13 or the adjustment wheel D
for more than 1 second.
The maximum time indicated in both memories is 19 hours and 59
minutes and on
vehicles which are fitted with an information display, it is 99 hours and 59 mi-
nutes. The indicator is set back to zero if this period is exceeded. £
