Opening the performance monitor
Press the MENU button or function button on the Infotainment system.
Touch the Vehicle function button.

If you would like to switch between the performance monitor and the lap timer ⇒ Lap timer , touch
one of the arrow buttons on the left and right above the instruments ⇒ Fig. 23 ②.
Selecting instruments and setting units
The display can show a maximum of three instruments at the same time. Each instrument can be
selected for each display area ⇒ Fig. 23 ① (left, middle, right).
To change between instruments, swipe vertically over the display. The currently selected instrument
will then disappear and a new instrument will appear.
The units can be adjusted for some instruments in the Infotainment system ⇒ Vehicle settings
menu .
The following instruments can be displayed:
Charge pressure display: the charge pressure display ⇒ Fig. 23 ① (left) shows the pressure in the
charge air system between the turbocharger and engine (in the unit bar). The further to the right the
needle on the scale, the higher the engine power output.
Accelerometer (G-meter): the accelerometer (G-meter) ⇒ Fig. 23 ① (centre) shows the
acceleration value in the centre (in the unit g). The red marking in the grid-type area shows the
acceleration level and the direction of the acting force (in the opposite direction according to
physical laws). If you drive to the left, for example, the red marking will move in the right area of the
instrument (and vice versa). If you accelerate, the red marking will move down. If you brake, the red
marking will move up. The level of acceleration is indicated by the position of the red marking which
moves outwards. If the acceleration increases, the red marking will move away from the centre area.
Power display: the power display ⇒ Fig. 23 ① (right) shows the current engine power output as a
digital value and on the surrounding scale (in kW).
Coolant temperature display: the needle may move further in a clockwise direction under high
engine loads and with high outside temperatures. This is no cause for concern unless the
indicator lamp in the instrument cluster display is lit up or flashing ⇒ Coolant temperature display .
Oil temperature display: the needle is in the middle area under normal driving conditions. If the
needle is in the bottom left area, this means that the engine has not yet reached its operating
temperature. Avoid excessively high speeds and acceleration when the engine has not yet reached

Adjust the steering wheel position before setting off and only when the vehicle is stationary ⇒ .
Push down the lever ⇒ Fig. 67① .
Adjust the steering wheel so that you can hold it with both hands at its circumference at the 9
o'clock and 3 o'clock positions with your arms slightly bent ⇒ Fig. 68 .
Push the lever up firmly until it is flush with the steering column trim ⇒ .
WARNING
Incorrect use of the steering column position adjustment and incorrect adjustment of the steering
wheel can cause serious or fatal injuries.
After adjusting the steering column, always move lever ⇒ Fig. 67① up so that it engages securely.
This prevents the steering column from moving spontaneously while the vehicle is in motion.
Never adjust the steering wheel when the vehicle is in motion. If you determine that a readjustment
is necessary when driving, stop the vehicle safely and adjust the steering wheel to the correct
position.
The steering wheel must always point towards the chest and not towards the face. This ensures that
the driver front airbag provides maximum protection in the event of an accident.
While driving, always keep both hands on the outside of the steering wheel at the 9 o'clock and 3
o'clock positions⇒ Fig. 68 . This reduces the risk of injury if the driver front airbag is triggered.
Never hold the steering wheel at the 12 o'clock position, or in any other manner, e.g. at the hub of
the steering wheel. If the driver front airbag is triggered, you could sustain serious injuries to the
arms, hands and head.
