Travel time, function - GF54.50-P-2004R

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 travel time to be displayed

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

The function is similar to that of a stopwatch.

Travel time "SINCE START" (short-distance memory), function 

• Activate the "SINCE START" display screen via the system selection button (S110s3) and scroll forward/back button (S110s1) of the multifunction steering wheel.
• The driving time elapsed since the last reset of the short-distance memory (circuit 15 ON), as well as the distance traveled, the average journey speed and fuel consumption.

Travel time "SINCE RESET" (long-distance memory), function 

• Activate the "SINCE RESET" display screen via the system selection button (S110s3) and scroll forward/back button (S110s1) of the multifunction steering wheel.
• The display shows the travel time elapsed (circuit 15 ON) since the last reset of the long-distance memory, as well as the mileage traveled, the average speed and fuel consumption.

As the travel time is only counted with terminal 15 ON, the instrument cluster (A1) needs the information about the status of circuit 15. This information is placed on the CAN interior by the electronic ignition switch control unit (N73) and read by the instrument cluster (A1). The travel time is calculated internally in the instrument cluster (A1).

If the display of travel time or travel distance exceeds the maximum display value (99:59 h or 65.535 km (40.959 miles), the travel time and travel distance of the respective memory are automatically reset This preserves the relationship between travel time and mileage.
