? Additional range achieved
Range ? is shown under Bonus fr. Start and
represents the additional range achieved since
the beginning of the journey as a result of an
adapted driving style.
If the fuel level has dropped into the reserve
range, the Reserve Fuel display message is
shown instead of range ? in the multifunction
display. The 8 warning lamp in the instru-
ment cluster also lights up (

page 274).
The ECO display consists of three sections, with
an inner and outer area. The sections corre-
spond to the following three categories:
: Acceleration (evaluation of all accel-
eration processes):
R
the outer area fills up and the inner
area lights up green: moderate
acceleration, especially at higher
speeds
R
the outer area empties and the
inner area is gray: sporty acceler-
ation
; Coasting (evaluation of all decelera-
tion processes):
R
the outer area fills up and the inner
area lights up green: anticipatory
driving, keeping your distance and
early release of the accelerator.
The vehicle can coast without use
of the brakes.
R
the outer area empties and the
inner area is gray: frequent heavy
braking
= Constant (continuous evaluation
over the entire journey):
R
the outer area fills up and the inner
area lights up green: constant
speed and avoidance of unneces-
sary acceleration and deceleration
R
the outer area empties and the
inner area is gray: fluctuations in
speed
The three inner areas display the current driving
style and light up green as a result of a particu-
larly economical driving style. Depending on the
driving situation, up to two areas may light up
simultaneously.
At the beginning of the journey, the three outer
areas are empty and fill up as a result of eco-
nomical driving. A higher level indicates a more
economical driving style. If the three outer areas
are completely filled at the same time, the driver
has adopted the most economical driving style
for the selected settings and prevailing condi-
tions. The ECO display border lights up.
The ECO display does not indicate the actual fuel
consumption. The additionally achieved range
displayed under Bonus fr. Start does not
indicate a fixed consumption reduction.
