Instrumen ts and ind icator ligh ts
You can call up the following information in the
on-board computer :
-Date
- Driving time from the short-term memory
- Average consumpt ion from the short -term
memory
- Average speed from the short -term memory
- Distance driven from the shor t-term memory
- Current fuel consumption
- Short-term memory overview
- Long-term memory overview
The short-term memory collects driving informa­
tion from the t ime the ignition is switched on un­
til it is switched off.
If you cont inue driv ing with­
in two ho urs after switching the ignition off , the
new values are included when calculating the cur­
rent trip information .
Unlike the short-term memory , the long -term
memory is not erased automat ica lly . Yo u can se­
lect the time period for evaluat ing trip informa­
tion yourself.
For some veh icle functions , you can access the
driving information from the short-term memory
in the line
(D c:> page 22, fig . 5.
Fuel consumpti on
The current fuel consumption can be shown us­
ing a bar g raph
c:> fig. 8. The average consump­
tion stored in the short-term memory is also dis­
p layed . If the bar is green, your vehicle is saving
fue l through one of t he following functions :
-Re cuperation : electrical ene rgy can be stored in
the battery when the vehicle is coasting or driv ­
ing downh ill. The bar will
move toward D.
-Cylinder on d emand sy stem* : the engine auto­
matically switches 4 cylinders off when lower
power output is required and other conditions
are met. This change is not noticeable to the
passengers . The cy linders will switch on aga in
when higher power output is needed.
@ Tips
- If the vehicle battery is disconnected, all
memory va lues are erased.

most fue l is listed first . If mo re than th ree items
u sing fuel are switched on, the equipment that is
current ly using the most fuel is d isplayed .
A scale @also shows the current total consump-
tion of all other cons umers. .,..

Economy tips
In certain situations, economy tips appear auto­
matica lly for a short time in the efficiency pro­
