WARNING
Failure to heed warning lights and instrument cluster text messages can cause the vehicle to break down in traffic and result in a collision and serious personal injury.
x Never ignore warning lights or text WARNINGS.
x Always stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
x Park the vehicle at a safe distance from moving traffic and where no part of the hot cata-lytic converter and exhaust system can come into contact with flammable materials under the vehicle, such as dry grass, brush, spilled fuel, etc.
x A broken down vehicle presents a high accident risk for itself and others. Switch on emergency flashers and set up a warning triangle to warn oncoming traffic.
WARNING
Roads and bridges may be dangerously icy even if the outside air temperature is above freez-ing.
x If you use the outside temperature display to tell you about frost conditions, remember that roads can even ice over at temperatures above +39 °F (+4 °C). Always remember: even if the “snowflake symbol” (ice warning) is not displayed, there could still be black ice on the road.
x Never rely exclusively on the outside temperature display.
NOTICE
Failure to heed warning lights or text WARNINGS can result in vehicle damage.
The instrument cluster displays and their arrangement may vary depending on the vehicle model and engine. For displays without warning and information messages, malfunctions are only signaled with indicator lights.
If there are multiple warning messages, the symbols are displayed for several seconds in order of importance. The symbols are displayed until the cause has been corrected.

Emergency starting and starting the engine with a very weak vehicle battery or after the vehicle battery has been replaced may change or delete system settings (including time, date, personal con-venience settings and programming). Check the settings and correct as necessary once the vehicle battery has built up a sufficient charge.
Using the instrument cluster menus: Basic version

Fig. 16 Basic version (vehicles without menu control multi-function steering wheel): Control buttons 1 and 2 on the windshield wiper lever.

The MFI menu has 2 automatic trip memories: 1 – single trip memory and 2 – total trip memory. The number of the memory is shown at the upper right of the display. The trip memories are in addition to the trip odometer, which is displayed in the bottom part of the instrument cluster and
controlled using the 0.0/SET button on the right of the instrument panel ⇒ fig. 11 (4), ⇒ fig. 12 (4).
To display the distance driven on trips 1 and 2, select the Route item in the MFI menu (MFI >
Route). Press the OK button (⇒ fig. 17) to toggle between Route 1 and Route 2 (trip 1 and trip 2).
Push and hold the OK button to manually reset a trip memory to 0.

1 Single trip memory
The memory accumulates and stores information about distance driven and fuel used from the time the ignition was switched on until the time it was switched off. If the ignition stays off for 2 hours or more, stored information is automatically deleted. If the trip is continued within 2 hours after the ignition was switched off, the new values are added.
2 Total trip memory
The memory displays and stores the accumulated driving and fuel consumption data of any number of single trips up to a total driving time of 99 hours and 59 minutes, and up to a total distance of 9999 miles (9999 km), depending on the instrument cluster version. If one of the maximum values is exceeded, then the memory is automatically cleared and starts again from 0.

The following displays can be accessed in the MFI menu if enabled under Settings > MFI data. Displays that are not enabled will not appear.
