1 Single trip
memory
The memory accumulates and stores infor-
mation about distance driven and fuel used from
the time the ignition was switched on until the
time it was switched off.
If the ignition stays off for 2 hours or more,
stored information is automatically deleted. If the
trip is continued within 2 hours after the ignition
was switched off, the new values are added.
2 Total trip
memory
The memory displays and stores the accumulat-
ed driving and fuel consumption data of any
number of single trips up to a total driving time
of 99 hours and 59 minutes, and up to a total
distance of 9,999 miles (9,999 km). If one of the
maximum values is exceeded, then the memory
is automatically cleared and starts again from 0.
Possible MFI menu displays
The following displays can be accessed in the MFI menu if enabled
under Settings > MFI data. Displays that are not enabled will not
appear.
Display Function
Travel time Driving time in hours (h) and minutes (min) cor-
responding to trip memories 1 and 2 (toggle).
Consumption
--.- mpg
Current fuel consumption in miles per gallon
(l/100 km) while driving.
When units are set to miles, dashes appear in-
stead of a number when the engine is running
and the vehicle is standing still.
When units are set to kilometers, the display
shows liters consumed per hour when the en-
gine is running and the vehicle is standing still.

outside temperature. It may be helpful to ventilate the vehicle before
driving and then to drive a short distance with the windows open. Af-
ter that, switch on the air conditioner with the windows closed. Keep
the windows closed when driving at high speeds. Open windows in-
crease fuel consumption.
Switch off seat heating once it has served its purpose.
Switch off the rear window defroster as soon as the windows are
free of fog and ice.
Additional factors that increase fuel consumption (examples):
Malfunctioning engine control.
Driving in the mountains.
Towing a trailer.
NOTICE
Never let the vehicle coast or roll down a hill in Neutral (N), es-
pecially when the engine is not running. The transmission will
not be lubricated and will be damaged.
