MODEL 203.0 /2 /7 as of 1.7.02 up to 23.4.04 

Statistical data can be interrogated and displayed in the "Trip Computer" menu. The trip computer (TRIP) is integrated in the instrument cluster (A1). The display appears on the multifunction display (A1p13) in the instrument cluster (A1).

There is the possibility of accessing 2 different data memories. The contents of the short-distance memory are shown in the "Since Start" screen, the contents of the long-distance memory are shown in the "Since reset" screen. The trip computer (TRIP) can be reset manually by pressing the instrument illumination rheostat (A1r1).

The following functions are provided by the trip computer (TRIP):

• Kilometers driven "since start" or "since reset"
• Time passed "since start" or "since reset"
• Average speed "since start" or "since reset"
• Average fuel consumption "since start" or "since reset"

The calculated range with the current fuel tank level and the current driving system can also be displayed on the multifunction display (A1p13).

Operation 

The driver operates the trip computer (TRIP) using the left multifunction steering wheel button group (S110).

The instrument cluster (A1) receives all the information for the trip computer functions via the class B (interior) controller area network bus (CAN-B) and class C (engine compartment) controller area network bus (CAN-C).
