The range can be called up on the multifunction steering wheel using the system selection button (S110s3) in the first function of the multifunction display (A1p13). The scroll forward/back button (S110s1) displays the range.

To determine the corresponding range the trip computer in the instrument cluster (A1) needs the fill level of the fuel tank. The left tank half fuel level sensor (B4/1) and right tank half fuel level sensor (B4/2) is read in by the rear SAM control unit (N10/8) and the corresponding message placed on the interior CAN. The instrument cluster receives this message, evaluates it and displays the corresponding value as the tank contents.

IMPORTANT As the time is only counted for "circuit 15 ON", the instrument cluster needs the information about the condition of "circuit 15". This information is placed on the interior CAN by the EIS [EZS] control unit (N73) and read by the instrument cluster. The time is calculated internally in the instrument cluster.

IMPORTANT If the display of travel time ot travel distance exceeds the maximum display value (99:59 hours or 40959 miles (65535 km)), then the travel time and the travel distance of the respective memory are reset automatically. This preserves the relationship between travel time and mileage.
