Driver information systemGeneral notes
The driver information system in the instrument panel shows
the status of various on-board systems at a glance.The display for the driver information system is in the centre of the instrument
panel.
The system runs a check on certain components and functions when the igni-
tion is switched on and while the vehicle is moving. The DIS system gives an
audible warning if a fault should occur or if servicing is required, and a red or
yellow warning symbol (in some cases with a corresponding driver message)
appears in the dashboard display.
The driver is informed on the audio system.
The driver information system includes the following functions:
Note
•If a fault should occur, the display will show a red or yellow warning
symbol. A red warning symbol indicates a serious malfunction ⇒ page 77. A
yellow warning symbol indicates a less serious malfunction ⇒ page 79.

or frequency of the selected radio station and various other information,
depending on the type of radio fitted.
When in CD mode*, the display will show the current track.
If you have a compatible telephone*, the phone book or telephone dialled
can also be seen on this display.
These displays appear in addition to the display on the radio itself.
Ambient temperature displayThe ambient temperature is shown in the display when the ignition is
switched on ⇒fig. 49 . On vehicles with an automatic gearbox, the display
does not appear until the driver has engaged a gear.
At temperatures below +5°C a snowflak e symbol appears next to the temper-
ature display. This is to warn the driver to take extra care when there is a risk
of ice on the road. 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 heat coming from the engine.
If the vehicle has an air conditioning and the display is changed over to °F
(degrees Fahrenheit), the ambient temperature display automatically
changes over to °F ⇒page 165.
WARNING
Do not rely on the ambient temperature display as an ice warning. Please
bear in mind that there may be ice on the roads even at ambient tempera-
tures of +5°C – beware of ice patches.
