51 MFI
(multifunction display) menu The multifunction display (MFI) has two auto-
matic memories:
1 - Partial memory and 2 -
T ot
al memory . The selected memory will be shown in the upper right-hand corner of the
display.
With the ignition switched on, and memory 1 or
2 displayed, briefly press
OK to change from
one memory to another.
1
Trip
memory
(for a
single
jour-
ney).
The memory stores the values for the
journey and the consumption from the
moment the ignition is switched on until
it is switched off again.
If the journey is broken for more than 2
hours, the memory is automatically
erased. If the journey is continued in less
than 2 hours after the ignition is switch-
ed off, the new data is added to the data
already stored in the memory.
2
Total
memory
(for all
jour-
neys).
The memory records the values for a spe-
cific number of partial trips, up to a total
of 19 hours and 59 minutes or 99 hours
and 59 minutes, or 1999.9 km (or miles)
for 9999 km (or miles), depending on the
model of instrument panel. On reaching
either of these limits, the memory is au-
tomatically erased and starts to count
from 0 again. Possible displays

Current fuel
consumption
The current fuel consumption while
driving is displayed in l/100 km (or
miles per gallon, mpg); when the en-
gine is running but the vehicle is not
moving, in l/h (or gallons per hour).
Average fuel
consumption
When the ignition is switched on, the
average consumption (in l/100 km or in mpg) is displayed after the vehicle
has moved approximately 100 metres
(328 feet). Otherwise horizontal lines
are displayed. The value shown is up-
dated approximately every 5 seconds.
Operating
range
Approximate distance in km (or miles)
that can still be travelled with the fuel
remaining in the tank, assuming the
same style of driving is maintained.
This is calculated using the current fuel
consumption.
Distance cov-
eredDistance travelled, after ignition is
switched on, in km (or miles).
Average speed
After the ignition is switched on, the
average speed will be shown after a
distance of approximately 100 metres
(328 feet) has been travelled. Other-
wise horizontal lines are displayed. The
value shown is updated approximately
every 5 seconds.

Fuel consumption in litres per
100 km (mpg) at different outside tempera-
tures Fuel consumption, environmental impact and
engine, brake and tyre wear depend largely
on three factors:
● Personal driving style.
● Conditions of use (weather, road surface).
● Technical requirements.
Savings of up to 25% in fuel consumption
are possible with an appropriate driving style
and the adoption of certain simple tips.
Changing gear early
General instructions: The highest gear is al-
ways the most economical. As a guideline,
for the majority of vehicles: at a speed of
30 km/h (19 mph), drive in third gear, at 40 km/h (25 mph) in fourth gear and at
50 km/h (31 mph) in fifth gear.
In addition, “skipping” gears when shifting
up helps to save fuel, weather and traffic
conditions permitting.
Do not wait until the last moment before
changing gear. Only use first gear when you
move off and change to second gear quickly.
Avoid the kick-down function in vehicles with
automatic gearbox.
Vehicles with a gear display help to achieve
an economical driving style as the display in-
dicates the best moment to change gear.
Let the vehicle roll
If you take your foot off the accelerator, the
fuel supply is stopped and consumption is
reduced.
Allow the vehicle to roll without accelerating,
for example when approaching a red traffic
light. However, if the vehicle is rolling too
slowly or the distance is too long, the clutch
pedal should be pressed to declutch. The en-
gine will then operate at idle speed.
If the vehicle is going to be at a standstill for
a period of time, switch off the engine; for ex-
ample, while waiting at a level crossing. In
vehicles which have the Start-Stop function
on, the engine switches off automatically
when the vehicle is not moving.
