The instrument cluster gives the driver basic information such as the current
speed, engine speed, the state of some vehicle systems and the like.
Fault display
If there is a fault in the instrument cluster, the Error message will appear in
the display.
Seek help from a specialist garage.

Vehicle condition
Certain functions of vehicle systems are checked continuously when the igni- tion is switched on.
Some error messages and other information are displayed in the MAXI DOT
display. The messages are displayed simultaneously with the icons in the MAXI
DOT display or with the warning lights in the instrument cluster » page 34,
Warning lights .
The menu item Vehicle status is shown in the main menu of the MAXI DOT
display whenever at least one fault message exists. After selecting this menu,

Several error messages are shown on the display under the message e.g. 1/3.
This indicates that the first of a total of three error messages is being dis-
played.

MemoryFig. 30
Multi-function display - memory display
Read and observe on page 44 first.
In memory the values of some of the multifunction display information (e.g.
average fuel consumption) are recorded.
The multifunction display is equipped with two memories, 1 and 2.

Press and hold to confirm the selected memory.
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.
If the trip is interrupted for more than 2 hours, the memory is automatically
erased.
Total-trip memory (memory 2)
The total-trip memory gathers data from any number of individual journeys up
to a total of 19 hours and 59 minutes or 1 999 kilometres driven (
), and up to a
total of 99 hours and 59 minutes or 9 999 kilometres driven (
).
The memory is deleted when either of these limits is reached and the calcula-
tion starts all over again.
Unlike the single-trip memory, the total-trip memory is not deleted after a pe-
riod of interruption of driving of 2 hours.
The following values of the selected memory are set to zero. › Average fuel consumption.
› Distance driven.
› Average speed.
› Driving time
Note
Disconnecting the vehicle battery will delete all memory data.
Information overview
Read and observe
on page 44 first.
The information overview of the Multifunction Display (the number of itemsdisplayed varies depending on equipment).
Outside temperature
The current outside temperature is displayed.
For vehicles with a MAXI DOT display this information is always shown.
Driving time
The time travelled since the memory was last erased is displayed.
If you want to measure the time 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 time indicated in both memories is 19 hours and 59 minutes ( )
and 99 hours and 59 minutes ( ). The indicator is set back to zero if this period
is exceeded.
45Information system
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,
.
symbols are displayed instead of the oil
temperature.

We recommend that you do not reset the service interval display yourself. In-
correctly setting the service interval display could cause problems to the vehi-
cle.
Variable service interval
For vehicles with variable service intervals, after resetting the oil change serv-
ice display, the values of a new service interval are displayed, which are based
on the previous operating conditions of the vehicle.
These values are then continuously matched according to the actual operating
conditions of the vehicle.1)
The kilometres remaining until the next service interval are displayed instead of the odometer.
