On-board computer display
The on-board computer display monitors the dif­
ferent memory levels :
- Short-term memory (on-board computer 1)
23

Driver information system
-Long-term memory (on-board computer 2)
- Efficiency program
The follow ing information can be displayed con­
secutively in the on-board computer:
- Time
- Date
- Estimated range based on current fue l level
- Travel time
- Average consumpt ion
- Average speed
- Distance
- Current fuel consumption
On-board computer
O (short-term memory)
The short-term memory collects driving informa­ tion from the time the ignition is switched on un­
til it is switched off. If you continue driving
with­
in two hours
after switching the ignition off, the
new values are included when calculating the cur­
rent tr ip informat ion. If stopped for more the
two hours, the short term memory is automati­
cally erased once you begin driving.
On-board computer
fl (long-term memory)
Unlike the short-term memory, the long-term
memory is not erased automatically. You can se­
lect the time period for evaluating trip informa­
tion yourself .
Efficiency program

The efficiency program can help you to use less
fuel

(D Tips
- For information on using the other button
fields, such as the audio, telephone* and
navigation* functions, see the MMI owner's
manual.
- Disconnecting the battery causes all the
memory data to be erased.

Operation
Applies to: vehicles wit h driver information system
The driver information system is controlled with
the multifunction steering wheel.

In add it ion to information about the on-board
computer (on-board computer 1 , 2 and the effi­
c iency p rogram), informa tion about other sys­
tems can also be shown in the display.
You can identify which level (on-board computer
1, 2 or the efficiency program) is shown in the
display based on the small

"'To access additional information below or

Lights and Vision
When switched on, adaptive light adjusts to
curves depending on the vehicle speed and steer­
ing wheel angle. This provides better lighting
through the curve. The system operates in a
speed range from approximately 6 mph (10 km/
h) to 68 mph (110 km/h) .
Static cornering light* -the cornering light
switches on automatically when the steering
wheel is turned at a ce rtain angle at speeds up to
approximately 44 mph (70 km/h) and when the
turn signal is activated at speeds up to approxi­
mately 25 mph (40 km/h) . The area to the side of
the vehicle is illuminated better when turning.
Speed dependent light distribution* -The speed
dependent light distribution adapts the light in
towns and on highways or expressways . Intersec­
tions can also be illuminated on vehicles with a
navigation system* .
Highway light function*
This function adapts the lighting for highway
driving based on vehicle speed .
A WARNING
-Automatic headlights* are only intended to
assist the driver. They do not relieve the
driver of responsibility to check the head­
lights and to turn them on manually accord­
ing to the current light and visibility condi­
tions. For example, fog cannot be detected by the light sensors . So always switch on the
low beam under these weather conditions
and when driving in the dark ~D.
- Accidents could occur if you can not see the road ahead of you well and if others on the
road cannot see you . Always switch your
headlights on so that you can see the road
ahead of you and others can see your vehicle
from behind.
- The rear fog lights should only be turned on
in accordance with traffic regulations, to
prevent glare for traffic behind your vehicle.
-If the battery has been discharging for a
while, the parking light may switch off auto­
matically. Always make sure your vehicle is
parked and adequately lit according to the
44
laws. Avoid using the parking lights for sev­
eral hours.
- Please observe legal regulations when using
the lighting systems described.
(D Tips
- The light sensor for the automatic head­
lights* is in the rearview mirror mount.
Therefore , do not place any stickers in this
area on the windshield.
- Some exterior lighting functions can be ad­
justed
Q page 45.
- If you turn off the ignition while the exterior lights are on and open the door, you will
hear a warning tone.
- In some market-specific versions, the tail
lights do not turn on when switching on the
daytime running lights .
- In cool or damp weather, the inside of the
headlights, turn signals and tail lights can
fog over due to the temperature difference between the inside and outside. They will
clear shortly after switching them on . This
does not affect the service life of the light­
ing.
-A message will appear in the instrument
cluster if there is a malfunction in the light
sensor
Q page 21 .
Emergency flasher
Fig. 41 Ins trumen t panel: e merge ncy flasher butto n
The emergency flashers makes other drivers
aware of your vehicle in dangerous situations.
.,. Press the~ button to switch the emergency
flashers on or off .

Airbag system
-Therefore, always wear your safety belts and
make sure that everybody in your vehicle is
properly restrained.
- Always hold the steering wheel with both
hands on the outside of the steering wheel
rim at the 9:00 o 'clock and 3 :00 o'clock po­
sitions to help reduce the risk of personal in ­
jury if the driver's airbag inflates .
- Never hold the steering wheel at the 12
o'clock position or with your hands any­
where inside the steering wheel or on the steering wheel hub. Holding the steering
wheel the wrong way increases the risk of
severe injury to the arms, hands, and head if
the driver airbag deploys.
A WARNING
Objects between you and the airbag will in­
crease the risk of injury in a crash by interfer­
ing with the way the airbag unfolds and/or by
being pushed into you as the airbag inflates.
- Always make sure nothing is in the front air-
-
bag deployment zone that could be struck
by the airbag when it inflates.
- Objects in the zone of a deploying airbag
can become projectiles when the airbag de­
ploys and cause serious personal injury.
- Never hold things in your hands or on your lap when the vehicle is in use .
- Never place accessories or other objects
(such as cup holders, telephone brackets,
note pads, navigation systems, or things
that are large, heavy, or bulky) on the doors;
never attach then to the doors or the wind­
shield; never place them over or near or at­
tach them to the area marked ,.AIRBAG" on
the steering wheel, instrument panel or the
seat backrests; never place them between
these areas and you or any other person in
the vehicle.
- Never attach objects to the windshield
above the passenger front airbag, such as
accessory GPS navigation units or music
players. Such objects could cause serious in­
jury in a collision, especially when the air­ bags inflate .
148
-Never recline the front passenger seat to
transport objects. Items can also move into
the deployment area of the side airbags or
the front airbag during breaking or in a sud­
den maneuver . Objects near the airbags can
fly dangerously through the passenger com­
partment and cause injury, particularly
when the seat is reclined and the airbags in­
flate.
A WARNING
A person on the front passenger seat, espe­
cially infants and small children, will receive
serious injuries and can even be killed by be­ ing too close to the airbag when it inflates .
- Although the Advanced Airbag System in
-
your vehicle is designed to turn off the front
passenger airbag if an infant or a small child
is on the front passenger seat, nobody can
absolutely guarantee that deployment un­
der these special conditions is impossible in
all conceivable situations that may happen
during the useful life of your vehicle.
- The Advanced Airbag System can deploy in
accordance with the .,low risk" option for 3-
and 6-year-old children under the U.S . Fed­
eral Standard if a child with electrical capac­
itance greater than the combined capaci­
tance of a typical one-year old infant re­
strained in one of the forward facing or rear­
ward-facing child seats with which your ve­
hicle was certified is on the front passenger
seat and the other conditions for airbag de­
ployment are met.
- Accident statistics have shown that children
are generally safer in the rear seat area than
in the front seating position.
- For their own safety, all children, especially
12 years and younger, should always ride in
the back properly restrained for their age and size.
Advanced front airbag system
Your vehicle is equipped with a front Advanced
Airbag System in compliance with United States
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 208, as
well as Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard ..,.
