Function of trip computer (TRIP) - GF54.50-P-0001R
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 is integrated in the instrument cluster (A1). The display takes place via the multifunction display (A1p13) of the instrument cluster (A1).
On 2 different data memories it is possible to access:
The contents of the short-distance memory are shown in the display "since start", the contents of the long-distance memory are shown in the display "since reset".
The following functions are provided by the trip computer:
- Display and calculation of the estimated range
- Display of the tank content
- Display and calculation of average fuel consumption
- Display of distance traveled
- Display of trip time
The data for average fuel consumption, travel time and mileage are stored separately in the short-distance memory and long-distance memory.
In a further display screen the tank contents and the provisional range are displayed together.
When the trip computer is called up, the most recent display appears.
Operation
The trip computer functions are operated via the multifunction steering wheel and the button for resetting (Reset) the instrument cluster (A1).
In models 203, 215 and 220, the instrument cluster (A1) receives all the information required for the trip computer functions over CAN.
In models 208 and 210, the fuel gauge sensor (B4/1, B4/2 or B4) is polled directly by the instrument cluster (A1).
Further details can be found in the documents listed in the table below.
Most of the documents on the sub-functions include illustrations of the displays on the multifunction display (A1p13). In the process the presentation always takes place for models 208, 210, 215 and 220. The displays of model 203 differ slightly from this.
