Selecting instruments and setting units
The display can show a maximum of three instruments at the same time. Each instrument can be selected for each display area
→ Fig. 1 1 (left, middle, right).
1. To change instruments, swipe vertically over the display.
The currently selected instrument will then disappear and a new instrument will appear.
The units of measurement can be adjusted for some instruments in the Infotainment system (→ Vehicle settings menu).
The following instruments can be displayed:
—
the charge air pressure gauge → Fig. 1 1 shows the pressure in the charge air system between the
turbocharger and engine in bar. The further to the right the needle on the scale, the higher the engine power output.
the accelerometer (G-meter) → Fig. 1 1 (centre) shows the acceleration value in the centre in g. The red
—
marking in the grid-type area shows the acceleration level and the direction of the acting force. The force acts in the opposite
direction according to physical laws. If you drive to the left, for example, the red marking will move in the right area of the
instrument and vice versa. If you accelerate, the red marking will move down. If you brake, the red marking will move up. The level of
acceleration is indicated by the position of the red marking which moves outwards. If the acceleration increases, the red marking will
move away from the centre area.

the power display → Fig. 1 1 (right) shows the current engine power output as a digital value and on the
surrounding scale in kW.
the needle may move further in a clockwise direction under high engine loads and with high outside
temperatures. This is no cause for concern as long as the warning lamp in the instrument cluster display does not light up or flash
(→ Coolant).
—
the needle is in the middle area under normal driving conditions. If the needle is in the bottom left area, this
means that the engine has not yet reached its operating temperature. Avoid excessively high speeds and acceleration when the
engine has not yet reached its operating temperature. The needle may move further in a clockwise direction under high engine loads
and at high outside temperatures. This is no cause for concern as long as the
warning lamp in the instrument cluster display does
not light up or flash (→ Engine oil).
Adapting the display areas to the driving situation
Choose the three possible instruments corresponding to your individual driving style and the driving situation.
WARNING
If the driver is distracted, this can cause accidents and serious injuries. Operating the Infotainment system can distract you from the
road.
● Drive with your full attention and with responsibility.
● Adjust all settings in the Infotainment system only when the vehicle is stationary.
NOTICE
Heavy loads on the engine, particularly when the engine is cold, can cause engine damage.
● When the engine is cold, avoid high engine speeds, strong acceleration and high engine loads.
● The needle on the rev counter should only briefly point into the red area, as engine damage may otherwise be incurred.
Due to the principle of performance determination used in the vehicle, the physical accuracy of the displayed values is not
guaranteed.
You can switch individual functions and systems on and off and adjust the settings in the vehicle settings of the Infotainment
system.
