Cruising range
Displays the estimated cruising range available
with the remaining fuel. It is projected by taking
into account the driving style over the last
20 miles/30 km.
When your cruising range falls below
30 miles/50 km, be sure to refuel. Other-
wise, engine functions are not ensured and
damage can occur.
<
Refueling is only registered by the computer for
fuel amounts above approx. 1.3 gallons/5 liters.
Distance to destination
When you enter a destination into the naviga-
tion system or manually enter a distance in the
computer prior to departure, the system can
also display the distance remaining to your des-
tination, refer to page
76 or 131 .
The system automatically applies the distance
to your destination using the route recom-
mended by the navigation system.
When you enter a destination into the
navigation system, any manual entries
will be overwritten once the vehicle has traveled
approx. 1,640 ft/500 m of the calculated dis-
tance.
