second. The information on the display is
updated every couple of seconds. When the
car is stationary, "
----" appears on the display.
AverageAverage fuel consumption is calculated from
the last resetting. Reset using RESET.
NOTE
There may be a slight error in the reading if
a fuel-driven supplementary and/or parking
heater* has been used.
Km to empty tankThe calculation is based on the average fuel
consumption over the last 30 km and the
remaining driveable fuel quantity. The display
shows the approximate distance that can be
driven with the fuel quantity remaining in the
tank.
An economic driving style generally results in a
longer driving distance. For more information
on how you can influence fuel consumption,
see page 12.
No guaranteed range remains when the display
shows "
---- km to empty tank". Refuel as
soon as possible.
NOTE
There may be a slight error in the reading if
the driving style has been changed.

Operation
Some settings are made from the centre con-
sole display screen and its menu system. For
information on how the menu system is used,
see page 142.
The current status can be checked on the trip
computer display with the left-hand stalk
switch.

Driver Alert. Select the On
option. For information on how the menu sys-
tem is used - see page 142.
The function is activated when speed
exceeds 65 km/h and remains active
as long as the speed is over
60 km/h.
The display shows a level mark with 1-5 bars,
where a low number of bars indicates incon-
sistent driving style. A high number of bars
indicates stable driving.
If the vehicle is driven inconsistently then the
driver is alerted by an acoustic signal as well as
the text message
Driver Alert Time for a
break. The warning is repeated after a time if
driving ability does not improve.
WARNING
An alarm should be taken very seriously, as
a sleepy driver is often not aware of his/her
own condition.
In the event of an alarm or a feeling of tired-
ness; stop the car in a safe manner as soon
as possible and rest.
Studies have shown that it is equally as dan-
gerous to drive while tired as it is under the
influence of alcohol.
