Information displays

TRIP COMPUTER
The computer memory stores data for a
journey or series of journeys until it is reset to
zero.
The displayed information is for guidance only,
as it can be affected by traffic, road and
weather conditions.
Three independent memories are available, A,
B and Auto. A and B me mories can be set
independently, while the Auto trip will reset
after every ignition cycle as the vehicle moves.
Full trip computer information for the trip
memories can be displayed on the vehicle
touch-screen located in the centre console,
while current selected trip computer
information is displayed on the instrument
panel message centre.
To access the trip computer touch-screen
settings:
• From the touch-screen Home menu, select
Vehicle .
• Select Trip computer .
• Select requirement s from the menu.
Trip computer information centre display
Vehicle total distance travelled ( 1) and trip
distance ( 2) are displayed, as well as average
fuel economy and average speed if selected via
the touch-screen. Also A, B or Auto will be
displayed, depending on the current memory
selected.
Odometer
The odometer shows the total vehicle distance
travelled since the vehicle was new.
The odometer and trip distance reading is
displayed in either miles or kilometres,
depending on the settings selected via the
touch-screen.
Changing the display
Press the TRIP button on the end of the left
column stalk switch repeatedly to display the
message centre data in the following order:
• Trip distance
• Average speed
• Average fuel consumption
• Range.
Trip distance (A, B and Auto)
Distance travelled since the last memory reset.
The maximum trip reading is 16 090 kilometres
(9 999.9 miles). The computer will
automatically reset to zero if this distance is
exceeded.
Average speed (A, B and Auto)
The average speed since the last press of the
reset button.

Average fuel consumption (A, B and
Auto)
The average fuel consumption, stated as litres
per 100 kilometres (except Japan, kilometres
per litre), miles per litre or miles per gallon (UK
only), based on the accumulated distance
travelled and the accumulated fuel used.
Range
This shows the predicte d distance, miles or
kilometres, that the vehi cle should travel on the
remaining fuel, assuming average fuel
economy and fuel consum ption stay constant.
Electronic dipstick (diesel and V8 petrol
engines only)
This shows the current engine oil level and any
associated warnings. SeeENGINE OIL CHECK -
V8 Petrol engines (page 199).
ML-km (also Miles-litre)
The display of metric or imperial units is
selected via the touch-screen.
Display language
The display language is selected via the
touch-screen.
Reset
Resetting of the trip memo ries is carried out via
the touch-screen.
Service interval indicator
The service interval message will only be
displayed when the vehicle has less than
3400 km (2000 miles) before the service is
due.
When the ignition is switched on, and the
vehicle has started it s service countdown,
SERVICE REQ'D XXXX km (XXXX MLS) is
displayed in the message centre. At the same
time the display will glow Amber.
After approximat ely five seconds, the display
reverts to show the preset requirements.
When the service distance has been reached,
SERVICE REQUIRED is displayed in the
message centre and the display will glow Red.
After approximat ely five seconds, the display
reverts to show the preset requirements.
The distance countdown re duces in increments
of 50 km or 50 miles, depending on which
display units have been selected.
The distance countdown is controlled by the
engine management system and is
automatically adjusted to allow for driving style
and conditions. This ga uges when the service
becomes necessary.
Note: After the completion of each service, the
Dealer/Authorised Repairer will reset the
distance display to commence the countdown
to the next service.
CAUTION
If no service interv al indicator is
displayed during the vehicle service
cycle, make sure that your vehicle is serviced
in accordance with the intervals, as stated in
the Service Portfolio.

Fuel and refuelling

FUEL CONSUMPTION
The fuel consumption figures shown below have been calculated using a standard testing
procedure (the new EC test proc edure from Directive 99/100/EC), and produced in accordance with
The Passenger Car Fuel Cons umption (Amendment) Order 1996.
Under normal use, a vehicle's actu al fuel consumption figures may differ from those achieved
through the test procedure, de pending on driving technique, ro ad and traffic conditions,
environmental factors, ve hicle load and condition.
Urban cycle
The urban test cycle is carried out from a cold start and cons ists of a series of accelerations,
decelerations and periods of stea dy speed driving and engine idling. The maximum speed attained
during the test is 50 km/h (30 mph) with an average speed of 19 km/h (12 mph).
Extra-urban cycle
The extra-urban test cycle is carried out immediatel y after the urban test. Approximately half of the
test comprises steady-speed driving, while the re mainder consists of a series of accelerations,
decelerations and engine idling . The maximum test speed is 120 km/h (75 mph) and the average
speed 63 km/h (39 mph). The test is carried out over a distance of 7 km (4.3 miles).
Combined
The combined figure is an average of the urban an d extra-urban test cycle results, which has been
weighted to take account of the differ ent distances covered during the two tests.
For additional information on fuel consumption figures and exhaust emissions, visit the Vehicle
Certification Agency (VCA) website at http://www.vcacarfueldata.org.uk/.

Maintenance

Weekly checks
•Engine oil level (non- electronic dipstick
vehicles). See ENGINE OIL CHECK - V6
Petrol engines (page 197).
• Engine coolant check. See ENGINE
COOLANT CHECK (page 204).
• Brake fluid level. See BRAKE FLUID
CHECK (page 206).
• Power steering fluid level. See POWER
STEERING FLUID CHECK (page 208).
• Screen washer fluid level. See WASHER
FLUID CHECK (page 209).
• Tyre pressures and condition. See TYRE
CARE (page 217).
• Operate air conditioning. See AUTOMATIC
CLIMATE CONTROL (page 116).
Note: The engine oil level on V6 petrol engines,
should be checked more frequently if the
vehicle is driven for prolonged periods at high
speeds. The engine oil level on diesel and V8
petrol engines is checked automatically at all
times by the electronic dipstick.
Severe driving conditions
When a vehicle is operated in severe
conditions, more frequent attention must be
paid to servicing requirements.
Severe driving conditions include:
• Driving in dusty and/or sandy conditions.
• Driving on rough and/or muddy roads
and/or wading. •
Driving in extremely hot or cold
conditions.
• Driving in areas using road salt or other
corrosive materials.
• Towing a trailer or driving in mountainous
conditions.
Contact your Dealer/Authorised Repairer for
advice.
Emission control
Your vehicle is fitted with various items of
emission and evaporati ve control equipment,
designed to meet specific territorial
requirements. You should be aware that
unauthorised replacemen t, modification or
tampering with this equipment by an owner or
repair shop, may be unlawful and subject to
legal penalties.
In addition, engine se ttings must not be
tampered with. These have been established to
ensure that your vehicle complies with
stringent exhaust em ission regulations.
Incorrect engine settings may adversely affect
exhaust emissi ons, engine performance and
fuel consumption. The y may also cause high
temperatures, which will result in damage to
the catalytic converter and the vehicle.
Road testing dynamometers (rolling
roads)
Because your vehicle is equipped with anti-lock
brakes, it is essential that any dynamometer
testing is carried out only by a qualified person,
familiar with the dynamometer testing and
safety procedures practised by
Dealers/Authorised Repairers.
CAUTION
Ensure that you take notice of any
message centre information and
warnings relating to engi ne oil level (V8 petrol
and diesel engines only). Top-up the level
when advised to do so. See ENGINE OIL
CHECK - V8 Petrol engines (page 199).
