it displays the last function called up.
The units of the statistical information
displayed are set permanently for each

Using the steering wheel buttons
X Press the 0010or0007 button to select
After start .
Or
X Press the 0001or0009 button to select
After reset .
The values in the After start submenu
refer to the start of the journey. The values in
the After reset submenu are calculated
from the last time the trip computer was
reset.
The After start trip computer function is
automatically reset if:
R the ignition has been switched off for more
than four hours.
R 999 hours have been exceeded.
R 9,999 miles have been exceeded.
The After reset trip computer is
automatically reset if the value exceeds
9,999 hours or 99,999 miles. i
If you turn the key to position 0in the
ignition lock or remove it, all the values are
reset after approximately four hours.
The values will not be reset if you turn the
key back to position 1or 2during this time.
Calling up the range Using the steering wheel buttons

X Select Range using the
0001or0009
button.
The approximate distance which can be
covered with the tank's current contents
and your current style of driving is shown.
i If there is only a small amount of fuel left
in the fuel tank, the 0016Please refuel message is shown instead of the range.

WARNING
If you operate information systems and
communication equipment integrated in the
vehicle while driving, you will be distracted
from traffic conditions. You could also lose
control of the vehicle. There is a risk of an
accident.
Only operate the equipment when the traffic
situation permits. If you are not sure that this
is possible, park the vehicle paying attention 190

This can result in damage to the fuel
injection system, for example.
Flow improvers are fuel additives used to
improve the flow characteristics of diesel
fuels.
The effectiveness of flow improvers cannot be
guaranteed with all fuels. Observe the
manufacturer's recommendations.
Information about approved flow improvers is
available from any authorized Sprinter Dealer.
At outside temperatures below 14 ‡(002710 †),
and if using diesel with less resistance to low
temperatures, add flow improver, basing the
mixing ratio on the outside temperature.
Mix this fuel additive with the diesel in good
time before the flow properties of the diesel
are affected by paraffi nseparation.
Malfunctions resulting from paraffin
separation can only be rectified by heating
the entire fuel system. Park the vehicle in a
heated garage, for example.
Information on fuel consumption H
Environmental note
CO 2(carbon dioxide) is the gas which
scientists believe to be principally responsible
for global warming (the greenhouse effect).
Your vehicle's CO 2emissions are directly
related to fuel consumption and therefore
depend on:
R efficien tuse of the fuel by the engine
R driving style
R other non-technical factors, such as
environmental influences or road
conditions
You can minimize your vehicle's CO 2
emissions by driving carefully and having it
serviced regularly.
i Only for certain countries: the respective
current consumption and emission values
of your vehicle can be found in the COC
papers (EC CERTIFICATE OF
CONFORMITY). These documents are
supplied when the vehicle is delivered. Consumption figures were found in the
currently valid respective version:
R
for vehicles up to and including the
Euro 4 standard according to EU
Directive 80/1268/EEC
R for vehicles from the Euro 5 standard
according to regulation (EC) no.
715/2007
Fuel consumption depends on:
R the vehicle version
R the style of driving
R the operating conditions
R the type or quality of the fuel used
The vehicle will use more fuel than usual in
the following situations:
R at very low outside temperatures
R in city traffic
R during short journeys
R in mountainous terrain
R when towing a trailer
To keep fuel consumption low, observe the
advice in the "Protection of the environment"
section (Y page 22).
The following components of the different
vehicle versions influence fuel consumption:
R tire sizes, tire tread, tire pressure, tire
condition
R body
R transmission ratios for the drive
assemblies
R additional equipment (e.g. air-conditioning
system, auxiliary heating system).
For these reasons, the actual consumption
figures for your vehicle may deviate from the
consumption figures determined according
to EU Directive 80/1268/EEC.
Data concerning fuel consumption are
recorded in the on-board computer; use the
steering wheel buttons to call up the Trip
computer menu (Ypage 190). Service products and capacities
