Technical Data
In order to minimise the fuel consumptio
n, a recommendation for shifting into
another gear is indicated in the display. If the control unit recognises that it is a
ppropriate to change the gear, an arrow is
shown in the display. The arrow points up or down, depending on whether it is recom- mended to shift into a higher or lower gear. At the same time, the recommended gear is indicated instead of the currently engaged gear .Multi-functional indicator (onboard computer)*IntroductionThe multi-functional indicator appears in the display
fig. 18
or in the information
display
page 22 depending on the equipm
ent fitted to your vehicle.
The multi-functional indicator offers
you a range of us
eful information:
On vehicles which are fitted out with information display*, it is possible to switch off the display of some information.
Note
In certain national versions th
e displays appear in the Imperial system of measures.
If the display of the second speed is acti
vated in mph, the current speed* is not
indicated in km/h on the display.MemoryThe multi-functional indicator is equi
pped with two automatic memories. The
selected memory is displayed in
the middle of the display field
fig. 18
.
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 over the memory takes place with the button
page 20, fig. 19
on the
windshield wiper lever. Single-trip memory (memory 1) The single-trip memory collates the driving information from the moment the ignition is switched on until it is switched off. New data will also flow into the calculation of the current driving information if the trip is continued
within 2 hours
after switching off
the ignition. The memory will be is automatica
lly erased, on the other hand, if the trip
is interrupted for
more than 2 hours
.
Total-trip memory (memory 2) The total distance driven memory gathers
data from any number of individual jour-
neys up to a total of 19 hours and 59 minutes driving or 1.999 kilometres driven and on vehicles which are fitted with informatio
n display* up to a total of 99 hours and 59
minutes driving or 9.999 kilometres driven. The memory is deleted when either of these limits is reached and the calculation starts from anew.
