The multifunction display can only be operated when the ignition is switched
on. After the ignition is switched on, the function displayed is the one which
you last selected before switching off the ignition.
The multifunction display shown in the segment display » Fig. 21 on page 29
or in the MAXI DOT display depending on your vehicle model » page 33.
On vehicles with a MAXI DOT display » page 33, there is an option not to dis-
play some of the information.
WARNING■ Concentrate fully on your driving at all times. As the driver you are fully
responsible for the operation of your vehicle.■
Even at temperatures of around +4 °C, there may still be black ice on the
road surface. You should therefore not rely solely on the outside tempera-
ture display for accurate information as to whether there is ice on the road.
Note
■ In certain national versions the displays appear in the Imperial system of
measures.■
If the display of the second speed is activated in mph, the current speed is
not indicated in km/h on the display.
MemoryFig. 21
Multifunction display
Read and observe on page 29 first.
The multifunction display is equipped with two automatic memories. The se-
lected memory is shown in the Display » Fig. 21.
The data of the single-trip memory (memory 1) is shown if a 1 appears in the
display. A 2 shown in the display means that data relates to the total distance
memory (memory 2).
Switch memories using button
B
» Fig. 22 on page 30 on the windscreen
wiper stalk.
Single-trip memory (memory 1)
The single-trip memory collates the driving information from the moment the
ignition is switched on until it is switched off. New data will also flow into the
calculation 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 trip memory collates the data from any number of individual trips up
to a total of 19 hours and 59 minutes or 1999 km or, for vehicles with a MAXI
DOT display, 99 hours and 59 minutes, or 9999 km. The memory is deleted
when either of these limits is reached and the calculation starts all over again.
Unlike the single-trip memory, the total-trip memory is not deleted after a pe-
riod 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
disconnected.29Instruments and Indicator Lights

The display is updated regularly while you are driving.
Range
The estimated range is displayed in kilometres. It indicates the distance you can still drive with your vehicle based on the level of fuel in the tank and the
same style of driving.
The display is shown in steps of 10 km. The value is displayed in steps of 5 km
after the
warning light has come on.
The fuel consumption over the preceding 50 km is used to calculate the infor-
mation. The range will increase if you drive in a more economical manner.
If the memory is set to zero (after the battery has been disconnected), a fuel
consumption of 10 l/100 km is used initially, then the value is adapted accord-
ing to the style of driving.
Distance travelled
The distance travelled since the memory was last erased is displayed. Reset
the memory to zero if you want to measure the distance travelled from a par-
ticular moment » page 30, Operation .

WARNING■ If you have to stop for technical reasons, park the vehicle at a safe dis-
tance from the traffic, switch off the engine and activate the hazard warn-
ing light system » page 59.■
Carefully open the coolant expansion bottle. If the engine is hot, the cool-
ing system is pressurized - risk of scalding! It is therefore best to allow the
engine to cool down before removing the cap.
■
Do not touch the radiator fan. The radiator fan may switch itself on auto-
matically even if the ignition is off.
CAUTION
■ Additional headlights and other attached components in front of the air inlet
impair the cooling efficiency of the coolant.■
Never cover the radiator - there is a risk of the engine overheating.

Power steeringRead and observe
on page 35 first.
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
continuously, a fault exists in the electrohydraulic power steering. The power
steering operates with reduced steering assist or does not function at all.
Seek help from a specialist garage.
Note
■ If the yellow warning light goes out after the engine is restarted and a
short drive, it is not necessary to visit a specialist garage.■
If the vehicle battery has been disconnected and reconnected, the yellow
warning light
comes on after switching on the ignition. The warning light
should go out after driving a short distance.
■
There is no power-assisted steering support when the vehicle is being towed
without the engine running or when the power-assisted steering is defect.
The vehicle is fully steerable however. There is however increased force re-
quired to turn the steering wheel.
Electronic Stability Control (ESC)

on page 35 first.
The warning light flashes to show that the ESC is currently operating.
If the warning light comes on immediately after you start the engine, the
ESC might be switched off due to technical reasons. Switch the ignition off and
on again. The ESC is fully functional again if the warning light does not light
up after you switch the engine back on.
There is a fault in the ESC system if the warning light lights up.
The following message is shown in the MAXI DOT display. Error: Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
Seek help from a specialist garage.
The ESC system cannot be turned off, the
» page 115 button only switches
the TCS off, the warning light in the instrument cluster lights up.
As the ESC operates in conjunction with the ABS, the ESP indicator light will
also come on if the ABS system fails.
Further information » page 114, Stabilisation control (ESC) .
Note
The warning light comes on after the ignition is switched on if the vehicle's
battery has been disconnected and reconnected. The warning light should go
out after the vehicle has driven a short distance.
Traction Control System (ASR)
Read and observe
on page 35 first.
The warning light flashes to show that the ASR is currently operating.
If the warning light comes on immediately after starting the engine, the ASR
can be switched off for technical reasons. Switch the ignition off and on again.
The TCS is fully functional again if the warning light does not light up after
you switch the engine back on.
If the warning light lights up, there is a fault in the ASR.
The following message is shown in the MAXI DOT display. Error: Traction control (ASR)
Seek help from a specialist garage.
The fact that the TCS system operates together with the ABS means that the TCS warning light will also come on if the ABS system is not operating proper-
ly.
Further information » page 115, Traction Control System (ASR) .
Note
The warning light comes on after the ignition is switched on if the vehicle's
battery has been disconnected and reconnected. The warning light should go
