The multifunction display only operates if the ignition is switched on.
After the ignition is switched on, the function that was last selected before
switching off the ignition is displayed.
Individual menu items can be shown or hidden in the Infotainment » Bedienung-
sanleitung Infotainment, chapter Vehicle settings (CAR button).
WARNINGConcentrate fully at all times on your driving! As the driver, you are fully re-
sponsible for the operation of your vehicle.
Note
In some national versions the displays appear in the Imperial system of measure-
ment.
Memory
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings
on page 29.
The multifunction display is equipped with three automatic memories.
The display of the selected memory varies depending on vehicle equipment.
Since start (MAXI DOT display) or “1” (segment display)The memory collates the driving information from the moment the ignition isswitched 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.
Long-term (MAXI DOT display) or “2” (segment display)
The memory gathers driving information from any number of individual journeys
up to a total of 99 hours and 59 minutes driving or 9999 kilometres driven.
The memory is deleted when either of these limits is reached and the calculation
starts all over again.
Since refuel (MAXI DOT display) or “3” (segment display)
The memory gathers driving information since the last refuelling.
The memory is erased automatically the next time you fill up.

Range
The range 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 as before.
The display is shown in steps of 10 km. After lighting up of the warning icon the
display is shown in steps of 5 km.
The fuel consumption over the last 50 km is used to calculate the range. The
range can increase if you drive in a more fuel-efficient manner.
Average fuel consumption
The average fuel consumption 1)
is calculated since the last time the memory was
erased.
If you wish to determine the average fuel consumption over a certain period of
time, you must set the memory at the start of the new measurement to zero » page 29 .
After erasing the memory, no fuel consumption data will appear for the first
100 m driven.
The indicated information is updated continuously while you are driving.
Current fuel consumption
You can use this information to adapt your driving style to the desired fuel con-
sumption 1)
.
The display appears in litres/hour if the vehicle is stationary or driving at a low
speed 2)
.
Oil temperature
If the engine oil temperature is in the range 80-110 °C, the engine operating tem-
perature is reached.
If the oil temperature is lower than 80 °C or above 110 °C, avoid high engine revs,
full throttle and high engine loads.
If the oil temperature is lower than 50 °C or if a fault in the system for checking the oil temperature is present,
are displayed instead of the oil temperature.
Warning against excessive speeds
Set the speed limit, for example, for the maximum permissible speed in
town » page 31 .Traffic sign recognition
The display can show up to three of the following traffic signs simultaneously.
› Speed limits (including additional signs).
› Overtaking prohibited.
Further information » page 166, Traffic sign recognition .
Current driving speed
The current speed displayed is identical to the display on the speedometer3
» Fig. 2 on page 11.
Average speed
The average speed since the memory was last erased is displayed in km/hour .
To determine the average speed over a certain period of time, set the memory to
zero at the start of the measurement » page 29.
After erasing the memory, no data will appear for the first 300 m driven. The indicated information is updated continuously while you are driving.
Distance travelled
The distance travelled since the memory was last erased is displayed.
If you want to measure the distance travelled from a particular moment in time on, at this moment, reset the memory by setting the button to zero » page 29.
The maximum distance indicated is 9999 km. The indicator is automatically set
back to zero if this period is exceeded.
Driving time
The time travelled since the memory was last erased is displayed.
If you want to measure the time travelled from a particular moment in time on, at this moment, reset the memory by setting the button to zero » page 29.
The maximum distance indicated is 99 hours and 59 minutes. The indicator is au- tomatically set back to zero if this period is exceeded.
