the multifunction* steering wheel for at least 2 seconds.
The journey 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 ignition, 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 minutes travel time or 9999 miles distance
travelled. The memory will automatically be deleted if one of the named
values is reached.

The memory will automatically be deleted once this value has been reached.
Current fuel consumption in l/100km or l/h
The display will show the current fuel consumption in mpg whilst the vehicle
is in motion or in litres/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 192.
Average consumption in l/100km
The average fuel consumption 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 while the vehicle is in
motion. The amount of fuel used will not be shown.
Fuel range in km
The fuel range is calculated using the figures for tank content and current fuel
consumption. It shows how far the vehicle can travel using the same condi-
tions as a reference.

Distance travelled in km
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.
Average speed in km/h
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.

Speed warning to --- km/h
This function may help you to keep within the speed limits. Press the
button on the windscreen wiper lever or the multifunction steering wheel*
to select the current speed. The instrument panel display gives the selected
speed, for example, Speed warning 120 km/h . You have five seconds to reset
the speed between 30 km/hand 250 km/h using rocker switch or buttons or on the multifunction steering wheel*. Press the button or wait
five seconds until the speed is stored and the warning is activated. If the set
speed is exceeded, an acoustic signal is heard and a warning message is

warning --- km/h is now displayed on the instrument panel.
Ambient temperature display
The measurement margin ranges from -40°C (-40°F) to +50°C (+125°F). At
outside temperatures below +4°C (+39.2°F), “a snowflake symbol” (ice
warning) appears in addition to the outside temperature display. This symbol
flashes for a few seconds and remains lit until the outside temperature rises
above +6°C (+42.8°F).
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
•
There are different instrument panels ; therefore the multifunction display
may vary.
•
When the vehicle is stationary or travelling at very low speeds, the
temperature displayed may be slightly higher than the actual ambient
temperature as a result of the heat radiated from the engine.
•
Vehicles with a multifunction steering wheel* do not have buttons on the
windscreen wiper lever. The multifunctio n display can only be controlled from
the buttons on the multifunction steering wheel*.

The engine compartment is a dangerous area! Before you open the
bonnet to work on the engine or in the engine compartment, you must
switch the engine off and allo w it to cool to reduce the risk of scalding or
other kind of injuries. Read and observe the relevant warnings
⇒ page 213.Note
•
The appropriate warning lamp for a fault will light up in vehicles without

Coolant Level* / temperature

The warning lamp lights up if the coolant temperature is too
high or if the coolant level is too low.There is a fault if:•
The warning symbol does not go out again after a few seconds.
•
The warning lamp lights up or flashes while the vehicle is moving, while
three acoustic warning signals ⇒ are emitted.
This means that either the coolant level is too low or the coolant temperature
is too high.
Coolant temperature too high
The instrument panel disp lays the following message
9): CHECK COOLANT
INSTRUCTIONS MANUAL ⇒ page 220.
First look at the coolant temperature gauge. The coolant temperature is too
high if the needle is over the warning area on the dial. Stop the vehicle,
switch the engine off and wait for it to cool down. Check the coolant level.
If the coolant level is correct, the over heating may be caused by a malfunction
of the radiator fan. Check the radiator fan fuse and have it replaced if neces-
sary ⇒page 248.
If the warning lamp lights up again after driving on for a short distance, stop
the vehicle and switch the engine off . Contact an Authorised Service Centre
or a qualified workshop.

Tyre p ressu
re*

The tyre pressure control system controls the tyre speed and
the frequency spectrum of each tyre.The tyre monitor
12) compares wheel revolutions and with this information,
the diameter of each wheel using the ESP sensors. If the diameter of a wheel
changes, the tyre monitor indicator lights . The wheel diameter changes
when:
•
Tyre pressure is insufficient.
•
The tyre structure is damaged.
•
The vehicle is unbalanc ed because of a load.
•
The wheels of one axle are under more pressure (for example, driving with
a trailer or on extreme slopes).

for a full load (see the sticker on the inside of the fuel flap). If the tyre monitor
system button is pressed down, the new tyre pressures are confirmed.
The tyre pressure monitor indicator
 lights up
If the tyre pressure of one or more wheels is much lower than the value set by
the driver, then the tyre co ntrol warning lamp lights up ⇒.
