Information button
All functions of the multifunction display can be called up one by one by pressing the INFO button. At the same time, an audible control signal of the central timer module is heard (CTM).
Multifunction display
The multifunction display provides the driver with the following information:
- Outdoor temperature
- Instant fuel consumption
- Average fuel consumption
- Remaining distance to refuel
- average speed
Outdoor temperature
This function shows the outside temperature in degrees C or degrees F. When the temperature drops to + 4°C or (40°F) and with a subsequent increase in temperature to 0°C or (32°F) the warning tone of the central timer module sounds. This signal warns the driver about the possibility of ice on the roads. The driver can select the temperature display mode in degrees C or degrees F by pressing the function button to switch the mode.
Instant fuel consumption
This function shows the instantaneous fuel consumption. Measurements are taken at high frequency by the powertrain control module, which reacts very quickly to any changes in driving technique. Under certain conditions, this can lead to significant fluctuations in the displayed value.
Average fuel consumption
This function shows the average fuel consumption of the vehicle since the last reset of the function. To reset to the default value of 35 mpg, press the reset button at any time.
Remaining distance to refuel
This function shows the approximate distance that the vehicle can cover using the remaining fuel in the fuel tank. Changing driving technique can change this value up or down. A short warning tone sounds when the remaining distance is 80 km (50 miles), 40 km (25 miles), 20 km (12 miles), 0 km (0 miles).
Average speed
This function shows the average vehicle speed calculated over the last 1000 km (600 miles) or since the last reset. To reset the function, press the reset button at any time
Ice warning warning light
The ice warning warning light is controlled by a signal sent to the information and message center by the ice warning sensor. When the outside temperature drops to + 4°C or (40°F), the information and message center turns on the ice warning warning light.
A control lamp of low level of working liquid in a windshield washer reservoir
The washer reservoir low warning light is controlled by a signal sent to the information and message center by the washer fluid level sensor. The information and message center activates a warning light when the fluid level in the reservoir is low.
Work principles
The warning lamps described below are integrated in the information and message center:
Ice Warning Warning Light
The ice warning warning light is controlled by the information and message center and the outside temperature sensor. When the outdoor temperature drops below 5°C (41°F), the information and message center turns on the ice warning indicator light.
The control lamp of the level of the working fluid of the screen washer
The washer fluid level warning light is controlled by a washer fluid level switch that is directly connected to the information and message center. The information and message center turns on a warning light when the fluid level in the reservoir is low.
- Ice (amber color lamp)
- Low washer fluid level (amber color lamp)
The following information and message center functions are available in position II of the ignition switch:
- Outside temperature
- Average vehicle speed
- Instant fuel consumption
- Average fuel consumption
- Remaining distance to refuel
