Press button on end of wiper lever
repeatedly until the 'AdBlue

displayed.
Level warnings
If the AdBlue level falls below a
certain value, a level warning will be displayed in the Driver Information
Centre 3 102. Additionally, control
indicator Y 3 100 illuminates
continuously together with a warning
chime.
Refill the AdBlue tank as soon as
possible.
AdBlue 3 139.
Fuel economy gauge
Depending on version, the fuel
economy gauge (or 'driving style
indicator') provides an instantaneous
calculation of fuel efficiency based on
current driving style.
The gauge uses colours to indicate
current fuel efficiency:
Green:best fuel economy is being achievedYellow:driving style too
aggressiveOrange:least efficient fuel
economyThe fuel economy gauge is enabled
by default.
Depending on version, the fuel
economy gauge (or 'driving style
indicator') can be disabled via the
Infotainment system. Refer to
Infotainment manual for further
information.
Service display When the ignition is switched on, theremaining distance before the next
service is due may be shown briefly in the Driver Information Centre. Based
on driving conditions, the interval at
which a service will be indicated can
vary considerably.
The 'distance before service' display
can also be shown by pressing button on end of wiper lever for approx.
five seconds.
When the remaining distance before
the next service is less than
1500 km or one month, a message
appears in the Driver Information
Centre.
94Instruments and controlsWhen the distance reaches 0 km or
the service date is due, control
indicator F illuminates in the
instrument cluster and the Driver
Information Centre respectively, and
a corresponding message appears in the Driver Information Centre.
The vehicle needs a service. Seek the
assistance of a workshop.
Resetting the service display
After a service, the service display must be reset:
Select the 'distance before service' display in the Driver Information
Centre by pressing button repeatedly
on the end of the wiper lever, then
press and hold button for approx.
ten seconds until the 'distance before
service' is displayed continuously, i.e. the display no longer flashes.
On some vehicles, it may be
necessary to press and hold the
button twice. In this event, proceed as follows:
After selecting the 'distance before
service' display, press and hold
button for approx. ten seconds until
the 'distance before service' flashes inthe display. Then press and hold
button again for approx. ten seconds
to reset the service interval.
If control indicator F does not
extinguish from the instrument
cluster, drive a minimum of 15 km then switch off ignition for at least
one minute before repeating
procedure.

Several minutes of driving at a speed above 40 km/h may be required to
complete the relearn process. The system can only provide limited
information during this time.
If problems occur during the relearn
process, control indicator w remains
illuminated and a warning message is displayed in the Driver Information
Centre.

General information The use of tyre chains or
commercially available liquid tyre
repair kits can impair the function of
the system. Factory-approved tyre
repair kits can be used.
