Driver information system
Fig. 10 Instrument cluster: economy tip

The efficiency program can help you to use less fuel. It shows other consumers that are using fuel and economy tips give advice on how to drive efficiently. The efficiency program receives distance and consumption data from the on-board computer.

To display the efficiency program, open the Vehicle functions menu and select the Efficiency program menu item.

Other consumers

The Energy consumers view lists other equipment that is currently affecting fuel consumption.

The display shows up to three other equipment items (B) fig. 9. The equipment using the most power is listed first. If more than three items using power are switched on, the equipment that is currently using the most power is displayed.

A gauge (A) also shows the current total consumption of all other consumers.

Economy tips

In certain situations, economy tips appear automatically for a short time in the efficiency program fig. 10. If you follow these economy tips, you can reduce your vehicle's fuel consumption.

To turn an economy tip off immediately after it appears, press any button on the multifunction steering wheel.

Tips

  • If you erase the data in the efficiency program, the values in the on-board computer will also be reset.
  • Once you have turned an economy tip off, it will only appear again after you turn the ignition on again.
  • The economy tips are not displayed in every instance, but rather in intervals over a period of time.
