2 Total trip memory
The memory displays and stores the accumulated driving and fuel con-
sumption data of any number of single trips up to a total driving time of
99 hours and 59 minutes, and up to a total distance of 9,999 miles
(9,999 km). If one of the maximum values is exceeded, then the memory
is automatically cleared and starts again from 0.

Possible MFI menu displays
The following displays can be accessed in the MFI menu if enabled under Settings > MFI data.
Displays that are not enabled will not appear.

Display Function
Travel time Driving time in hours (h) and minutes (min) corresponding to trip memo-
ries 1 and 2 (toggle).
Consumption
--.- mpg
Current fuel consumption in miles per gallon (l/100 km) while driving.
When units are set to miles, dashes appear instead of a number when
the engine is running and the vehicle is standing still.
When units are set to kilometers, the display shows liters consumed per
hour when the engine is running and the vehicle is standing still.
Consumption
--.- l/100 km
Av. consumption
--.- mpg Average fuel consumption in miles per gallon (l/100 km) on trips per trip
memories 1 and 2 (toggle) is displayed once the vehicle has been driven
about 330 feet (100 m). Until then, dashes appear instead of a number.
The value displayed is updated every 5 seconds. Av. consumption
--.- l/100 km
Range  -- mi Estimated distance in miles (km) that the vehicle can go with the fuel left
in the tank the way you are currently driving. Takes account of the cur-
rent fuel consumption, among other things. Range-- km
Route -- mi Distance driven in miles (km) per trip memories 1 and 2 (toggle). Route -- km
Average speed
-- mph Average speed on trips per trip memories 1 and 2 (toggle). Displayed
once the vehicle has been driven about 300 feet (100 m). Until then,
dashes may appear instead of a number. The value displayed is updated
every 5 seconds. Average speed

Speed warning
--- mph When the set speed (from 20–155 mph or 30–250 km/h) is exceeded, an
acoustic warning sounds and a visual message may also appear in the
instrument cluster display. Speed warning
--- km/h

Switching between the displays
x Use the arrow up and down buttons *and + on the multi-function steering wheel.

x If you smell an odor, immediately shut off seat heating and have it checked by an
authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.
x Never install leather upholstery on a vehicle with seat heating that originally had cloth
upholstery. The seat heating elements for seats with cloth seats will overheat if the cloth
upholstery is replaced with leather upholstery.
Switch off seat heating when it is not needed to help reduce unnecessary fuel consumption.

WARNING
Incorrectly estimating distances with the right outside mirror can cause collisions and
serious injury.
x The right outside mirror has a convex (curved) surface. This widens your field of vision.
But vehicles or other objects seen in a convex mirror will look smaller and farther away than
they really are.
x If you use the right outside mirror to judge distances from vehicles behind you when
changing lanes, you could estimate incorrectly and cause a crash and serious injuries.
x Whenever possible, use the inside mirror to more accurately judge distance and size of
vehicles or other objects seen in the convex mirror.
x Always make sure you have a clear view to the rear of the vehicle.
NOTICE
Always fold in the outside mirrors when taking the vehicle through an automatic car wash.
To reduce fuel consumption, use outside mirror heating only when needed.
When first switched on, outside mirror heating works with maximum heat for about 2 minutes.
If power mirror adjustment does not work, the outside mirrors can be adjusted by hand by
pressing on the edges of the mirror surface.

Moderate use of extra electrical loads
Comfort inside the vehicle is nice and important, but it is important to use them in an environmentally
conscious manner.
Some devices can increase fuel consumption when activated (examples):
x Climate control system (air conditioner): If the air conditioner has to produce starkly contrasting
temperatures, it requires a large amount of energy, which is generated by the engine. The temperature
in the vehicle should therefore not be extremely different from that of the outside temperature. It may
be helpful to ventilate the vehicle before driving and then to drive a short distance with the windows
open. After that, switch on the air conditioner with the windows closed. Keep the windows closed when
driving at high speeds. Open windows increase fuel consumption.
x Switch off seat heating once it has served its purpose.
x Switch off the rear window defroster as soon as the windows are free of fog and ice.
Additional factors that increase fuel consumption (examples):
x Malfunctioning engine control.
x Driving in the mountains.
NOTICE
Never let the vehicle coast or roll down a hill in Neutral (N), especially when the engine is not
running. The transmission will not be lubricated and will be damaged.

Remove all unnecessary items and unnecessary dead weight from the vehicle.
Remove unnecessary aftermarket components
The more aerodynamic the vehicle, the less fuel it will consume. Aftermarket components such as
bicycle racks reduce its aerodynamic performance.
Therefore, remove unnecessary structures and unused rack systems, particularly if planning to drive at
higher speeds.

Driving situations Requirements and
conditions Vehicle behavior
Driving in city traffic. – Select a moderate speed. Driving in fully electric mode at this level is
possible with a constant speed of up to
about 37 mph (60 km/h) on a flat road
surface .
– Avoid full acceleration. The fuel consumption is reduced with
moderate acceleration due to higher
efficiency of the combustion engine and
driving in fully electric mode is possible.
– Careful use of the %
