The ECO display consist
softhree sections, with
an inner and outer area. The section scorre-
spond to the following three categories: :
Acceleration
(evaluation of all accel-
eration processes):
R the outer area fills up and the inner
area lights up green: moderate
acceleration ,especially at higher
speeds.
R the outer area empties and the
inner area is grey: sporty acceler-
ation. ;
Coasting
(evaluation of all decelera-
tion processes):
R the outer area fills up and the inner
area lights up green: anticipatory
driving, keeping your distance and
early release of the accelerator.
The vehicle can coast without use
of the brakes.
R the outer area empties and the
inner area is grey: frequent heavy
braking. =
Constant
(continuous evaluation
over the entir ejourney):
R the outer area fills up and the inner
area lights up green: constant
speed and avoidance of unneces-
sary acceleration and decelera-
tion.
R the outer area empties and the
inner area is grey: fluctuations in
speed. The three inner areas display the current driving
style and light up green as aresult of aparticu-
larly economical driving style. Dependin gonthe
driving situation, up to two areas may light up
simultaneously.
At the beginning of the journey, the three outer
areas are empty and fill up as aresult of eco-
nomical driving. Ahigher level indicates amore
economical driving style. If the three outer areas
are completely filled at the same time, the driver
has adopted the most economical driving style
for the selected settings and prevailing condi-
tions. The ECO display border lights up.
The ECO display does not indicate the actual fuel consumption. The additionally achieved range displayed under
Bonus fr. start Bonus fr. start does not
indicate afixed consumption reduction.
In addition to driving style, the actual consump- tion is affected by other factors, such as:
R load
R tyre pressure
R cold start
R choice of route
R the use of electrical consumers
These factor sare not included in the ECO dis-
play.
An economical driving style involves driving at a
moderate engine speed.
To achieve ahigher value in the categories
"Acceleration" and "Constant":
R observe the gearshift recommendation
R drive the vehicle in drive program E(vehicles
with DYNAMIC SELECT switch)
On long journeys at aconstant speed, e.g. on the
motorway, only the outer area for "Constant"
will change.
The ECO display summarises the driving style
from the start of the journey to its completion.
Therefore, there are more marked changes in
the outer areas at the start of ajourney. During
ap rolonged driving time, these changes are
smaller. For more marked changes, perform a
manual reset (Y page 238).
