warmed up to operating temperature . Before

On-board computer
F ig . 8 Instrument cluster: fuel co nsumption display

You can call up the fo llowing information in the
on-board computer:
- Da te
- Dr iv ing time from the short-te rm memory
-Average consumption from the short -term
memory
- Average speed from the short-term memory
- Distance driven from the short-term memory
- Current fuel consumption
- Short-term memory overv iew
- Long-te rm memory overview
The short-term memory collects driv ing inf orma
tion from the time the ign ition is switched on un
til it is switched off. If you continue driving with
i n two hours after switch ing the ignit ion off, the
new values are included when ca lculating the cur
rent trip information.
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 .
Fuel consumption
The current fu el consumption can be shown us
in g a bar graph ¢
fig. 8. The average consump
tion stored in the short-term memory is also dis
played . If the bar is green, your vehicle is saving
fuel through one of the fo llowing functions :
-Recuperation : electrical energy can be stored in
the vehicle battery when the vehicle is coast ing
or dr iving down hill. The bar will move towa rd
0 .
-Cylinder on demand system*: the engine auto
matically switches four cylinders (4 .0L TFSI) or
six cylinders (6.3L FSI) off when lower power
output is required and other conditions are
met. This change is not noticeable to the pas
sengers . The cylinders w ill switch on again
when higher power output is needed .
