The multi-function display (MFD) shows you information on
the journey and fuel consumption.
The multi-function system uses two automatic memories: 1 - Actual
memory and 2 - Total memory. The selected memory will be shown in the upper right-hand corner of the display.
Selecting a memory
– When the ignition is on, briefly press button ⇒ fig. 39 on the
windscreen wiper lever to change from one memory to another or
press button on the steering wheel controls ⇒fig. 39.
Resetting a memory
– Select the memory that you would like to reset.
– Hold down button on the windscreen wiper lever or button on the steering wheel controls for at least 2 seconds.The trip memory 1 collects the travel and consumption rates from the
moment the ignition is switched on until it is switched off. If the journey is
continued within two hours of switching off the ignition, the new values will
be added to the existing trip recorder memory. The memory will automatically
be deleted if the journey is interrupted for more than two hours.
The journey memory 2 collects the journey data for any number of individual
journeys (even if the ignition is switched off for longer than two hours) up to
a total of 99 hours and 59 minutes trav el time, 9,999 km distance travelled
and 999 litres of fuel consumed. The me mory will automatically be deleted if
one of the named values is reached.

− If the ignition is switched on, the electric equipment could be acti-
vated with risk of injury, for example, in the electric windows.
− The doors can be locked using the remote control key. This could
make assistance difficult in an emergency situation.
− Always take the key with you when you leave the vehicle.
•
