ABABInformation overview
Overview of driving data (depending on the vehicle equipment).
Clock - current time is displayed.
Outside temperature - If the outside temperature drops below +4 °C, the tem-
perature indicator appears and a snowflake symbol 
(display for low temper-
ature) flashes for a few seconds, then remains displayed together with the
outside temperature.
Driving time - Driving time since last clearing the memory.
Current fuel consumption - When the vehicle is stationary or moving slowly,
the fuel consumption is displayed in l/h (in models in some countries the fol-
lowing appears --,- km/l). With G-TEC vehicles the current consumption of the
fuel currently being used is displayed ( with regards to a stationary or slow
moving vehicle, the natural gas consumption is displayed in kg/h).
Average fuel consumption - Is calculated continuously since the last clearing
of the memory. After erasing the memory, no data will appear for the first 300
m driven. With G-TEC vehicles, the average consumption of fuel currently being
used is displayed.
Natural gas quality The details of the quality of natural gas are displayed as a
percentage of between 70% to 100%. The higher the value of natural gas, the
lower is the consumption.
Range - Drive distance in km which can be covered with the existing tank ca-
pacity and with the same driving style. If you drive more efficiently this value
can increase. With G-TEC vehicles the following details are displayed - Range
with natural gas / petrol.
Distance driven - Distance driven since the memory was last cleared.
Total distance travelled - Odometer
Average speed - Value constantly recalculated, for distance since last clearing
the memory. After erasing the memory, no data will appear for the first 300 m
driven.
Current Speed - Digital speedometer.
Coolant temperature - If the coolant temperature is in the range 70-120 °C,
the engine operating temperature has been reached. If the temperature is be-
low 70 ° C, high engine speeds and straining the engine should be avoided. If
the temperature is over 120 ° C, the warning light lights up the instrument
cluster 

Oil temperature - if the temperature is lower than 50 °C or if there is a fault in
the system for checking the oil temperature, the  symbols are displayed.
Warning of excessive speed - It is possible to set a speed limit.WARNINGEven at temperatures of around +4 °C, black ice may still be on the road
surface! You should therefore not only rely on the outside temperature dis- play for accurate information as to whether there is ice on the road.
Warning at excessive speeds
The system offers the possibility to set a speed limit beyond which an acoustic
warning signal will sound and the following warning message (MAXI DOT Dis-
play) and the symbol appears in the display of the instrument cluster.

By confirming the speed stored in the memory, the speed limit is reset.
The set driving mode remains stored even after switching the ignition on and
off. If the break in a journey exceeds 2 hours, the pre-set speed limit is deacti-
vated.
MemoryFig. 25
Memory display: MAXI DOT display / Segment Display
The system stores data from the two memories described below, which are
then displayed at position
A
» Fig. 25 .
“1” - Single-trip memory
Drive data is stored from when the ignition is switched on to when it is switch-
ed off. If the trip is continued within 2 hours after switching off the ignition,
new data will also flow into the calculation of the current driving information.
If the trip is interrupted for more than 2 hours, the memory is automatically
erased.
“2” - Long-term memory
The memory gathers driving information from any number of individual jour-
neys up to a total of 19 hours and 59 minutes driving or 1,999 kilometres driv-
en.
The indicator is automatically set back to zero if one of these two values is ex-
ceeded.

To select the preferred memory bank choose the desired specification of the
multi-function display and select by repeatedly confirming the preferred
memory bank.

The vehicle may be equipped with a central locking system which makes it
possible to unlock/lock all doors and the boot lid simultaneously.
The turn signal lights flash twice as confirmation that the vehicle has been un-
locked .
If you unlock the vehicle and do not open a door or the boot lid within the next
30 seconds, the vehicle will lock again automatically.
The turn signal lights flash once as confirmation that the vehicle has been
locked .
If the driver's door has been opened, the vehicle cannot be locked.
If the doors or the luggage compartment lid remain open after the vehicle has
been locked, the turn signal lights do not flash until they have been closed.
Automatic locking / unlocking of a vehicle with central locking system
This function enables the locking of all doors and the boot lid from a speed of
15 km / h. Opening the doors and the boot lid from the outside is not possible.

The following applies after locking.
▶ Opening the doors and the boot lid from the outside is not possible.
▶ The doors can be unlocked and opened from the inside by a single pull on the
opening lever of the respective door.WARNINGDoors locked from the inside make it difficult for rescuers to get into the
vehicle in an emergency – risk to life!
SafeLock
Read and observe
and on page 43 first.
SafeLock prevents the door from being opened from the inside. This makes an
attempted break-in to the vehicle more difficult.
Activating
SafeLock is activated when the vehicle is locked from the outside.
This function is pointed out by the following message 
 on the display of
the instrument cluster after switching out the ignition.
Activation display
When SafeLock is activated the warning light in the driver's door flashes for 2
seconds in rapid succession, then starts to flash at longer intervals.
Deactivating
The safelock can be switched off by locking twice within 2 seconds.
The warning light in the driver door flashes rapidly for about 2 seconds, then
goes out and starts to flash at longer intervals after about 30 seconds.
If the vehicle is locked and the safe securing system is switched off, the door
can be opened separately from the inside by a single pull on opening lever.
The Safelock system switches back on when the vehicle is locked.
WARNINGIf the car is locked and the safe securing system activated, no people must
remain in the car as it will then not be possible to either unlock a door or
open a window from the inside. The locked doors make it more difficult for
rescuers to get into the vehicle in an emergency – risk to life!44Using the system
