The essentials
Multifunction display (MFI) The multifunction display (MFI) has two auto-
matic
memorie
s: 1 - Partial memory and 2 -
Total memory . The selected memory will be
shown in the lower 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 memo-
ry (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
switched off, the new data is added to
the data already stored in the memo-
ry.
2Total mem-
ory (for all
journeys).
The memory stores the values of any
number of journeys, until it counts a
total of 19 hours and 59 minutes of
driving, or 1999.9 km or miles of driv-
ing, depending on the type of instru-
ment panel fitted. On reaching either
of these limits, the memory is auto-
matically erased and starts to count
from 0 again. Possible displays
