switched on.At temperatures be tween +6° C to -7°C , in addition to the outside tempe ra-
ture, an ice crystal is displayed and if travel speed is over 10 km/h an acoustic
buzzer is heard.
The illumination of the crystal symbol ai ms to warn the driver of the risk of
ice, so that he/she proceeds with due care.
When the vehicle is stationary or travelling at very low speeds, the tempera-
ture displayed may be slightly higher than the actual outside temperature as
a result of heat coming from the engine.

The multi-function display is eq uipped with two automatic memo-
ries: 1 - Trip memory and 2 - Total journey memory . The selected
memory will be shown in the upper right-hand corner of the display.
Selecting memory
– With the ignition switched on, briefly press the button ⇒page 55, fig. 35 on the windscreen wiper lever to move
between the two memories.
Resetting the memory
– Select the memory that you would like to reset.
– Press and hold button on the windscreen wiper lever for at least 2 seconds.The trip memory 1 collects the travel and consumption data from the moment
the ignition is switched on until it is switched off. If the journey is continued
within two hours of switching off the i gnition, the new values will be added to
the existing trip recorder memory. The memory will automatically be deleted
if the journey is interrupted for more than two hours.
The total journey memory 2 collects the journey data for any number of indi-
vidual journeys (even if the ignition is switched off for longer than two hours)
up to a total of 99 hours and 59 minute s travel time, 9999 miles distance trav-
elled and 999 litres of fuel consumed. The memory will automatically be
deleted if one of the named values is reached.
Displays in the multi-function display (MFD)* You can switch between the following displays in the multi-function display
(MFD) by operating the rocker switch ⇒ fig. 37 on the windscreen wiper

Time
The time is also displayed when the ignition is switched off. The clock can be
set with the right-hand rotating button below the rev counter “digital clock”.
min - Journey duration
The display shows the amount of time which has elapsed since the ignition
was switched on.
The maximum display value in both me mories is 99 hours and 59 minutes.
The memory will automatically be deleted once this value has been reached.
Ø mph - Average speed
The average speed will be shown after a distance of approximately 100
metres has been travelled. Dashes will appear in the display until that time.
The display will be updated every 5 seconds whilst the vehicle is in motion.
Miles - Distance travelled
The display shows the distance travelled since the ignition was switched on.
The maximum display value in both memories is 9999 miles. The memory will
automatically be deleted once this value has been reached.
Miles - Fuel range
The fuel range is calculated using the fi gures for tank content and current fuel
consumption. It shows how far the vehicle can travel using the same condi-
tions as a reference. Ø litre/100km - Average fuel consumption
The average fuel consumption will be shown
⇒page 56, fig. 38 after a
distance of approximately 100 metres has been travelled. Dashes will appear
in the display until that time. The display will be updated every 5 seconds
whilst the vehicle is in motion. The amount of fuel used will not be shown.
ltr/100km or ltr/hr - Current fuel consumption
The display will show the current fuel consumption in litre/km whilst the
vehicle is in motion or in litre/hour when the vehicle is in a stationary position
with the engine running.
Using this display you can see how your driving style affects fuel consump-
tion ⇒page 151.
Ambient temperature display
The measurement margin extends from -45° C to +58° C. At temperatures
lower than +4° C, an “ice crystal symbol” is displayed and a “warning”
sounds if the vehicle is moving at more than 20 km/h (ice warning). This
symbol will flash for about 10 seconds and remains lit until the exterior
temperature rises above +4° C or 6° C if it was already lit.
WARNING
There could be black ice on the road surface even if the “snowflake symbol”
is not shown. You should, for this reason, not rely exclusively on this
display - Risk of accident!
Note
When the vehicle is stationary or travelling at very low speeds, the tempera-
ture displayed may be slightly higher than the actual ambient temperature as
a result of the heat radiated from the engine.

WARNING
•
Failure to observe warning lamps and warning messages can result in
serious personal injury or damage to your vehicle.
•
The risk of an accident increases if your vehicle breaks down. Use a
warning triangle to draw the attention of other road users to your
stationary vehicle so that it does not represent a danger.
•
The engine compartment of any motor vehicle is a dangerous area!
Before you open the bonnet to work on the engine or in the engine compart-
ment, you must switch off the engine and allow it to cool to reduce the risk
of scalding or other injuries. Read and observe the relevant warnings
⇒ page 169.Note
•
The appropriate warning lamp for a fa ult will light up in vehicles without
warning or information texts in the display.
•
In vehicles with warning or information texts in the display, the appro-
priate warning lamp for a fault will ligh t up and a warning or information text
will also appear in the display.
Alternator
This warning lamp signals a fault in the alternator.The warning lamp
lights up when the ignition is switched on. It should go
out when the engine has started running.
If the warning lamp lights up while driving, the alternator is no longer
charging the battery. You should immediately drive to the nearest qualified
workshop.
You should avoid using electrical equipment that is not absolutely necessary
because this will drain the battery.
If the indicator flashes the voltage is insufficient for normal vehicle
operation.
Parking and dipped/side lights
Optical display (green) of dipped, side or park lights switched on. The park
lights are activated with the ignition switched off.
