Multi-functional indicator*
Introduction
The multi-functional indicator appears in the display of the revolutions
counter ⇒fig. 6 or in the information display ⇒page 21, fig. 9 depending
on the equipment fitted to your vehicle.
The multi-functional indicator offers you a range of useful information.
Note
In certain national versions the displays appear in the Imperial system of
measures.
Memory
The multi-functional indicator is equipped with two automatic memories.
You can see the memory which is currently being shown in the display
from the negatively displayed number ⇒fig. 6 . 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).
Switching of the memory takes place when the button ⇒page 18,
fig. 7 .
WARNING
The clock should not be adjusted while driving for safety reasons
but only when the vehicle is stationary.

The following readouts will be set to zero by button :
•Average fuel consumption
•distance driven
•Average speed
•Driving time
You can only operate the multi-functional indicator 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 outside temperature indicator will appear with a snowflake symbol
when the outside temperature lies between +5°C and -5°C. The symbol
warns the driver of the possible danger of ice on the road. After the rocker
switch is actuated, the function displays the one which you last
selected before switching off the ignition.
The outside temperature
The outside temperature appears in the display when the ignition is
switched on.
The correct outside temperature will be indicated with a delay of 5
minutes. If the vehicle is stationary (or driven at a very low speed) the
temperature indicated may be slightly higher than the actual outside
temperature because of heat radiated by the engine.
An ice crystal symbol appears in the temperature display if the outside
temperature is between about +5°C and -5°C ⇒fig. 8.
Note
The outside temperature is not indicating when showing navigation data
(guidance to the destination). It must be called up over the menu (valid for
vehicles which have a navigation and information display).
Range
The estimated range in kilometres is shown on the display. It indicates the
distance you can still drive with your vehicle based on the present level of
fuel in the tank for the same style of driving. The readout is shown in steps
of 5 km.
The fuel consumption for the last 50 km is taken as a basis for calculating
the range. If you drive in a more economical manner from this moment on,
the range will be increased accordingly.
You first drive 50 km if the readout is reset (after disconnecting and recon-
necting the battery) before a new readout for the range is displayed.
