» Fig. 2 on page 10 works only when the igni-
tion is switched on.
In vehicles with a segment display, the coolant temperature is indicated only by
one of the warning lights » page 22,   Coolant coming on or going off.
Cold range
The pointer in the left of the scale indicates that the engine has not yet reached
its operating temperature. Avoid high speeds, full throttle and high engine loads.
This prevents possible damage to the engine.
The operating range
The engine has reached its operating temperature as soon as the pointer moves into the middle of the scale. At very high ambient temperatures or under heavy
engine loads, the pointer may move even further to the right.
High temperature range
The coolant temperature is too high if the pointer reaches the red area of the
scale. Further information » page 22.
CAUTION
Additional headlights and other components mounted in front of the air inlet im-
pair the cooling efficiency of the coolant.

MemoryFig. 4
Multifunction display
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 13.
The multifunction display is equipped with two automatic memories. The selected
memory is shown in the Display » Fig. 4.
The data of the single-trip memory (memory 1) is shown if a 1 appears in the dis-
play. A 2 shown in the display means that data relates to the total distance mem-
ory (memory 2).
Switch memories using button
B
» Fig. 5 on page 14 on the windscreen wiper
stalk.
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 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 ei-
ther 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 period of interruption of driving of 2 hours.
NoteAll information in the memory 1 and 2 is erased if the battery of the vehicle is dis-
connected.

Outside temperature
The current outside temperature is displayed 1)
.
The temperature is shown with the snowflake symbol  (ice warning) if the out-
door temperature is below +4 °C.
This display flashes for a few seconds, then shows the most recently displayed
function 2)
.
If the temperature drops below +4 °C while the car is driving at a speed faster than 10 km / h, a beep is also heard.
Driving time
The driving time elapsed since the memory was last erased appears in the display.
Reset the memory to zero by pressing the button » page 14, Operation to meas-
ure the driving time from a particular moment.
The maximum time indicated in both memories is 19 hours and 59 minutes and on
vehicles which are fitted with a MAXI DOT display, it is 99 hours and 59 minutes.
The indicator is set back to zero when this period is exceeded.
Current fuel consumption
The current fuel consumption level is displayed in litres/100 km 3)
. You can use this
information to adapt your driving style to the desired fuel consumption.
The display appears in litres/hour if the vehicle is stationary or driving at a lowspeed 4)
.
Average fuel consumption
The average fuel consumption since the memory was last erased is displayed in
litres/100 km 3)
.
Set the memory to zero at the start of a new measurement if you wish to deter-
mine the average fuel consumption over a certain period » page 14, Operation . No
value will appear in the display after it has been erased until you have driven ap-
proximately 300 m.
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  has come on.
The fuel consumption over the preceding 50 km is used to calculate the informa-
tion. 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 con- sumption of 10 l/100 km is used initially, then the value is adapted according 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 particular
moment » page 14 , Operation .
The maximum distance indicated in both memories is 1999 km or 9999 km on ve- hicles with a MAXI DOT display. The indicator is set back to zero when this period
is exceeded.
Average speed
The average speed since the memory was last erased is displayed in km/hour . Set the memory to zero at the start of measurement to determine the average
speed over a certain period » page 14, Operation .
No value will appear in the display until you have driven approximately 300 m af- ter this information has been deleted.
