Child safety
Child seats fastened with the “ISOFIX” and Top Tether*
system
Child seats with the ISOFIX or Top Tether* system can be se-
cured quickly, easily and safely on the rear outer seats.
Fig. 28 ISOFIX securing
rings
Fig. 29 Top Tether* se-
curing ring
When removing or fitting the child seat, please be sure to follow
the manufacturer's instructions.
– Move the rear seat as far to the rear as it will go. –
Press the child seat onto the ISOFIX retaining rings until the
child seat can be heard to engage securely. If the child seat is
equipped with Toptether* anchor points, secure it to the corre-
spondent ring. Observe the manufacturer's instructions.
– Pull on both sides of the child seat to ensure that it is secure.
Two ISOFIX retaining rings are fitted on each rear seat. In some vehicles, the
rings are secured to the seat frame and, in others, they are secured to the
rear floor. The access to the ISOFIX rings is between the rear seat backrest
and the seat cushioning. The Top Tether* anchors are located at the rear of
the rear seat backrests (behind the seat or in the luggage compartment).
Child seats with the “ISOFIX” and Top Tether* attachment system are availa-
ble from the Technical Services.
WARNING
● The securing rings are designed only for use with ISOFIX and Top
Tether* child seats.
● Never secure child seats that do not have the ISOFIX and Top Tether*
system, retaining belts or other objects to the securing rings – this could
result in potentially fatal injuries to the child!
● Ensure that the child seat is secured correctly using the “ISOFIX” and
Top Tether* securing rings.

Controls and displays
Multi-function display* (on board computer)
Introduction
The multifunction display can only be operated when the ignition is switch-
ed on. When the ignition is switched on the last function selected before it
was switched off is displayed.
The multifunction display data is shown on the screen ⇒ Fig. 33
⇒ page 59.
In vehicles fitted with an informative display ⇒ page 62 the system can be
adjusted so that certain data is not shown.
WARNING
● Always keep your attention on driving! As the driver, you have the full
responsibility for the safety of traffic.
● Do not rely only on the outside temperature indicator to verify wheth-
er the road surface is frozen. This is because with an outside temperature
of +4 °C (+39 °F) ice can generate on the road - Warning of frozen road
surface!
Note
● Models for certain countries can show the values in imperial units.
● If the second speed in mph (km/h) is displayed, the current speed in
km/h (mph) is not displayed on the screen. Memory
Fig. 33 Multifunction
display
The multifunction display has two automatic memories. The selected mem-
ory is displayed on the screen ⇒ Fig. 33.
The current journey data (memory 1) is always displayed when the number
1 appears on the display. When number 2 appears on the display, the total
distance travelled is shown (memory 2).
The memory is selected by pressing button B
⇒ Fig. 34 ⇒
page 60.
Current journey memory (memory 1)
The current journey memory collects 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 ex-
isting trip recorder memory. The memory will automatically be deleted if the
journey is interrupted for more than two hours.
Total distance travelled memory (memory 2)
The total distance travelled memory collects journey data from any number
of individual journeys up to a maximum of 19 hours and 59 minutes and
1999 km (miles) or until 99 hours and 59 minutes and 9999 km (miles) in
cars with an informative display. The memory will automatically be deleted
if one of the named values is reached, resetting the data collected.

Controls and displays
Current fuel consumption
The current fuel consumption is indicated on the display in litres/100km
(miles) 1)
. You can adapt your driving style to the required consumption with
the assistance of this indicator.
The consumption is displayed in litres per hour while the vehicle is stopped
or at idling speed 2)
.
Average fuel consumption
The display shows the average fuel consumption in litres/100km (miles) 1)
calculated since the memory was last reset ⇒ page 59.
If you wish to measure the average fuel consumption from a specific period,
the memory must first be deleted by pressing the button, B
⇒ Fig. 34
⇒ page 60. While driving the first 300 m after deleting the memory this val- ue is not shown on the display.
The value is updated regularly while the vehicle is in motion.
Operating range
The approximate operating range is indicated in kilometres (miles) on the
display. It shows how far the vehicle can travel with the available fuel using
the same driving conditions as a reference.
The operating range is calculated in sections of 10 kilometres (miles). When
the fuel gauge enters the reserve zone, the operating range is displayed in
sections of 5 kilometres (miles).
The operating range is calculated based on the fuel consumption during the
last 50 kilometres (miles). The operating range increases when driving in a
more economical manner. When the memory is reset (after disconnecting the battery), the operating
range is calculated with a 10 litres per 100 km (miles) consumption and ad-
justs to represent the current driving style.
Distance
The display shows the distance you have covered since the memory was last
reset
⇒ page 59. If you wish to measure the duration of a journey from a
specific moment, the memory must be deleted by pressing the button, B
⇒ Fig. 34 ⇒
page 60.
The maximum value for both memories is 1999 km (miles), or 9999 km
(miles) in vehicles fitted with an informative display. The memory is reset if
this value is exceeded.
Average speed
The display shows the average speed in km/h (mph) calculated from the
last time the memory was reset ⇒ page 59. If you wish to measure the aver-
age speed from a specific period, the memory must first be deleted by
pressing the button, B
⇒ Fig. 34 ⇒
page 60.
While driving the first 300 m after deleting the memory this value is not
shown on the display.
The value is updated regularly while the vehicle is in motion.
Driving speed
The current driving speed, the same as indicated on the speedometer, is
shown on the display 3
⇒ Fig. 31 ⇒
page 55.
Oil temperature
If the oil temperature is lower than 50 °C (+122 °F) or if a fault appears on
the oil temperature control, in place of the temperature indication, the sign -
-.- is shown.
1)
The indication of consumption is given in kms (miles)/litres in models for certain countries.
2) The indication of the consumption when the vehicle is stationary is given in - -.- kms
(miles)/litres. in models for certain countries.
