Current fuel consumption
The current fuel consumption level is displayed in litres/100 km 1)
. You can use
this information to adapt your driving style to the desired fuel consumption.
The display appears in litres/hour if the vehicle is stationary or driving at a low
speed 2)
.
Average fuel consumption
The average fuel consumption since the memory was last erased is displayed
in litres/100 km 1 )
.
If you wish to determine the average fuel consumption over a certain period of
time, you must set the memory at the start of the new measurement to
zero » page 45 , Memory . After erasing the memory, no value is displayed until
you have driven approx. 300 m.
The display is updated regularly while you are driving.
Range
The range indicates the distance you can still drive with your vehicle based on
the level of fuel in the tank and the same style of driving as before.
The display is shown in steps of 10 km. After lighting up of the indicator light
the display is shown in steps of 5 km.
The fuel consumption over the last 50 km is used to calculate the information.
The range will increase if you drive in a more economical manner.
If the memory is set to zero (after disconnecting the battery), a fuel consump-
tion of 10 l./100 km is calculated for the range; afterwards the value is updated
according to the style of driving.
Distance travelled
The distance travelled since the memory was last erased is displayed.
If you want to measure the distance travelled from a particular moment in time
on, at this moment, reset the memory by setting the button to zero » page 45,
Memory .
The maximum distance indicated in both memories is 1 999 km ( ) and
9 999 km ( ). The indicator is set back to zero if this period is exceeded.Average speed
The average speed since the memory was last erased is displayed in km/hour .
To determine the average speed over a certain period of time, set the memory
to zero at the start of the measurement » page 45, Memory .
After erasing the memory, no data will appear for the first 300 m driven.
The display is updated regularly while you are driving.
Current driving speed
The current speed displayed is identical to the display on the speedometer2
» Fig. 23 on page 30 .
Oil temperature 3)
If the engine oil temperature is in the range 80-110 °C, the engine operating
temperature is reached.
If the oil temperature is lower than 80 °C or above 110 °C, avoid high engine
revs, full throttle and high engine loads.
If the oil temperature is lower than 50 °C or if a there is fault in the system for
checking the oil temperature,

Your car is equipped with a central locking system.
The central locking system allows you to lock and unlock all doors, the fuel fill-
er flap and boot lid at the same time.
Depending on the equipment configuration, the following is true after
unlocking
› The turn signal lights flash twice as confirmation that the vehicle has been
unlocked.
› The doors, the boot lid and the fuel filler flap are unlocked.
› The interior light operated via the door contact illuminates.
› The SafeLock system is switched off.
› The indicator light in the driver door stops flashing.
› The anti-theft alarm system is deactivated.
If you unlock the vehicle and do not open a door or the boot lid within the next
30 seconds, the vehicle will lock again automatically and the SafeLock system
or anti-theft alarm system will be switched on. This function is intended to
prevent the car being unlocked unintentionally.
Depending on the equipment configuration, the following is true after
locking
› The turn signal lights flash once as confirmation that the vehicle has been
locked.
› The doors, the boot lid and the fuel filler flap are locked.
›The interior light operated via the door contact goes out.
› The SafeLock system is switched on.
› The indicator light in the driver door begins flashing.
› The anti-theft alarm system is activated.
If the doors or the boot lid remain open after the vehicle has been locked, the
turn signal lights do not flash until they have been closed.WARNING■ Never leave the key in the vehicle when you exit the vehicle. Unauthor-
ized persons, such as children, for example, could lock the car, turn on the
ignition or start the engine - there is a danger of injury and accidents!■
When leaving the vehicle, never leave persons who are not completely in-
dependent, such as children, unattended in the vehicle. The children might,
for example, release the handbrake or take the vehicle out of gear. The ve-
hicle could then start to move – risk of injury and accidents! These individu-
als might also not be able to leave the vehicle on their own or to help
themselves. Can be fatal at very high or very low temperatures!
CAUTION
■ Each key contains electronic components; therefore it must be protected
against moisture and severe shocks.■
Keep the groove of the keys absolutely clean. Impurities (textile fibres, dust,
etc.) have a negative effect on the functionality of the locking cylinder and ig-
nition lock.
■
The battery must be replaced if the central locking or anti-theft alarm system
does react to the remote control at less than approx. 3 metres
away » page 210 .
■
When leaving the vehicle, always check if it is locked.
■
If the driver's door has been opened, the vehicle cannot be locked.
Note
In the event of an accident in which the airbags are deployed, the locked doors
are automatically unlocked in order to enable rescuers to gain access to the
vehicle.51Unlocking and opening

You can set a lock delay » page 58.
CAUTION
■
The operation of the remote control may temporarily be affected by signal in-
terference from transmitters close to the car and which operate in the same
frequency range.■
Only operate the remote control when the doors and boot lid are closed and
the vehicle is in your line of sight.
■
The operating range of the remote control key is approx. 30 m. But this range
of the remote control can be reduced if the batteries are weak.
Note
For vehicles with anti-theft alarm the acoustic signals can also be activated/
deactivated by locking/unlocking » page 47.
