Average speed, function - GF54.50-P-2009R

MODELS 203 up to 30.6.02, 208 as of 1.8.99, 210 as of 1.7.99, 215, 220 with CODE (494a) USA version

The trip computer allows the average vehicle speed to be displayed:

"SINCE START" (short-distance memory) and
"SINCE RESET" (long-distance memory)

Figure 1

The average speed is displayed in miles per hour (picture 1) or kilometers per hour (picture 2)

The display resolution is one mile per hour or one kilometer per hour.
The display range extends from 0 to 160 mph or 0 to 260 km/h.
The value is updated once per second.

To calculate the average speed, the ratio is formed from the distance traveled and the travel time since the last time the short-distance memory or long-distance memory was reset.

Average speed "SINCE START" (short-distance memory), function

Activate the "SINCE START" (short-distance memory) via the system selection button (S110s3) and scroll forward/back button (S110s1) of the multifunction steering wheel.
The display shows the average speed calculated since the last reset of the short-distance memory, as well as the travel distance, the fuel consumption figure and travel time.

Average speed "SINCE RESET" (long-distance memory), function

Activate the "SINCE RESET" (long-distance memory) via the system selection button (S110s3) and scroll forward/back button (S110s1) of the multifunction steering wheel.
The display shows the average speed calculated since the last reset of the long-distance memory, as well as the mileage traveled, the average fuel consumption and travel time.

The following information is required:

Travel time: is calculated internally in the instrument cluster (A1).
Travel distance: is determined from the 4 wheel speeds. The wheel speeds are sent in the form of a message of the CAN engine compartment from the control unit for traction system (N47) to the instrument cluster (A1).

It is completely normal for the "SINCE START" display (short-distance memory) and "SINCE RESET" display (long-distance memory) to show different values since the two displays are based on different sets of data. The "since start" display (short-distance memory) reacts much more sensitively to the current driving situation than the "since reset" display (long-distance memory). If initial values are defective the following appears in the display field: "- - -".
