A
» Fig. 30 .
Since start ( ) Or “1” (
)
The 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.
Long-term ( ) And “2” (
)
The memory gathers driving information from any number of individual jour-
neys up to a total of 99 hours and 59 minutes driving or 9999 kilometres driv-
en.
The memory is deleted when either of these limits is reached and the calcula-
tion starts all over again.
Since refuel ( ) or “3” (
)
The memory gathers driving information since the last refuelling.
The memory is erased automatically the next time you fill up.
