Multi-function display - Display
example of the memory
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 13.
The multifunction display is equipped with two automatic memories, 1 and 2. The
selected memory is shown in the Display » Fig. 6 .
Exchange between memories is made with the
B
button on the wiper
stalk » Fig. 7 on page 14.
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.
Total-trip memory (memory 2)
The total distance driven memory gathers data from any number of individual
journeys up to a total of 19 hours and 59 minutes driving or 1,999 kilometres driv-
en. The memory is deleted when either of these limits is reached and the calcula-
tion 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.

engine oil under the prevailing conditions. This can cause serious engine damage.
Therefore, switch the engine off and seek help from a specialist garage.
Even if the oil level is correct,
do not drive any further if the warning light is
flashing. Also do not leave the engine running at an idling speed.
Seek help from a specialist garage.
WARNINGIf you have to stop for technical reasons, then park the vehicle at a safe dis-
tance from the traffic, switch off the engine and activate the hazard warning
light system » page 36, Hazard warning light system .17warning lights and instruments
Page 21 of 176
CAUTIONThe red oil pressure light is not an oil level indicator! One should therefore
check the oil level at regular intervals, preferably after every refuelling stop.
Coolant
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-ings
on page 16.
The warning light comes on for a few seconds when the ignition is switched
on.
If the warning light
lights up or flashes, either the coolant temperature is too
high or the coolant level is too low.
An audible signal sounds as a warning tone.
Stop the vehicle, switch off the engine, check the level of the coolant » page 132,
and refill the coolant if necessary » page 133.
Do not continue your journey if for some reason it is not possible to top up the
coolant under the prevailing conditions. This can cause serious engine damage.
Therefore, switch the engine off and seek help from a specialist garage.
If the coolant is within the specified range, the increased temperature may be
caused by an operating problem at the radiator fan. Check the fuse for the radia-
tor fan, replace if necessary » page 156, Fuses in the engine compartment .
Do not continue driving if the warning light
does not go off even though the
coolant level is correct and the fuse for the fan is in working order!
Seek help from a specialist garage.
WARNINGIf you have to stop for technical reasons, then park the vehicle at a safe dis- tance from the traffic, switch off the engine and activate the hazard warning
lights » page 36 .
Power steering
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings
on page 16.
The warning light comes on for a few seconds when the ignition is switched
on.
If the warning light after switching on the ignition or when driving lights up con-
tinuously, a fault exists in the electromechanical power steering.
› If the
yellow warning light lights up
, this indicates a partial failure of the
power steering and the steering forces can be greater.
› If the
red warning light lights up
, this indicates a complete failure of the pow-
er steering and the steering assist has failed (significantly higher steering forces).
Further information » page 66.
Note
■
If the yellow warning light goes out after starting the engine again and driv-
ing a short distance, it is not necessary to visit a specialist garage.■
If the vehicle battery has been disconnected and reconnected, the yellow warn-
ing light comes on after switching on the ignition. The warning light should go
out after driving a short distance.
Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings
on page 16.
The warning light flashes
to show that the ESC is currently operating.
If the warning light
lights up, there is a fault in the ESC.
As the ESC operates in conjunction with the ABS, the ESP warning light will also come on if the ABS system fails.
If the warning light
comes on immediately after starting the engine, the ESC
can be switched off for technical reasons. In this case, the ESC can be switched on again by switching the ignition on and off. If the warning light goes out, the ESC is fully functional again.
