You can call up the following information in the
on-board computer:
- Date
- Driving time from the short-term memory
- Average consumpt ion 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 overview
- Long-term memory overview
The short-term memory collects driving informa-
tion from the t ime the ignition is sw itched on un-
til it is switched off.
If you continue driving with-
in two hours aft er switching the ignition off, the
new values are included when calculat ing the cur-
rent trip information .
Unlike the short-term memory, the long-term
memory is not erased automat ically. You can se-
lect the time period for evaluating trip informa-
tion yourself.
For some veh icle functions, you can access the
driving info rmation from the short-term memory
in the
line @ c:>page21, fig. 5.
Fuel consumption
The current fue l consumption can be shown us-
ing a bar graph c:>
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 following functions:
- Recuperation : electrical ene rgy can be stored in
the vehicle battery when the vehicle is coasting
or driving downhill. The bar will move toward
0 .
- Cylinder on demand system*: the engine auto-
matically switches four cylinders off when low-
er power output is required and other condi-
tions are met . This change is not noticeable to
the passengers.
@ Tips
The date, time of day and time and date for-
mat can be set in the Infotainment system

The eff iciency program can help you to use less
fuel.
It shows other consumers that are using
fuel and eco no my tips give advice on how to dr ive
efficiently. The efficiency program receives dis -
tance and consumption data from the on-board
computer.
To display the efficien cy program, open the
Vehi-

menu and select the Efficiency pro·

menu item.
Other consumers
The Energy consumers view lists other equip-
ment that is currently affecting fue l cons ump-
tion. The display shows up to t hree ot her equ ip-
ment items @ c:>
fig. 9. The equipment using the
most power is listed first. If more than three
items using power are switched on, the equip-
ment that is current ly using the most power is
displayed.
A gauge @ also shows the current tota l con-
sumption of all other consumers.
