Vehicle equipment
This chapter describes all standard, country-specific and optional equipment available for the model range. It may therefore describe equipment and functions which are not avail-able in a vehicle, for example on account of the optional equipment selected or the national-market version. This also applies to safety-rel-evant functions and systems. Please comply with the relevant laws and regulations when using the corresponding functions and sys-tems.
Instrument cluster
General
Depending on the equipment, the switching of displays in the instrument cluster can be deac-tivated via iDrive.
The displays in the instrument cluster can sometimes differ from the illustrations in the Owner’s Handbook.
Safety information
WARNING
If the displays in the instrument cluster fail, the vehicle must not be used. There is a risk of accident or material damage. Immediately park the vehicle safely. By switching drive-ready state off and on again, it may be pos-sible to rectify the malfunction and continue driving. If the malfunction cannot be rectified, have the system checked by an authorised Service Partner or another qualified Service Partner or a specialist workshop.

G-Meter
The G-Meter shows the longitudinal and lat-eral forces acting on the vehicle occupants during a journey.
Efficiency display
Principle
Information on the driving style and consump-tion can be shown as a widget in the instru-ment cluster, taking the form of a consumption display, for example.
General
The information shown varies depending on the activated drive mode:
Drive mode |
Display |
COMFORT SPORT |
Average consumption. Current consumption. Energy recuperation. |
ECO PRO |
ECO PRO bonus range. |
Average consumption
Average consumption indicates the fuel con-sumption over a specific distance.
Current consumption
The display of the current consumption allows you to check the current fuel consumption, e.g. for driving economically and in an environmen-tally friendly manner.
Energy recuperation
Energy recuperation involves converting the ki-netic energy of the vehicle into electrical en-ergy in coasting overrun mode. The vehicle battery is partially charged and fuel consump-tion can be lowered.
ECO PRO bonus range
In ECO PRO drive mode, the ECO PRO bonus range shows how the range is increased by adopting a fuel-efficient driving style.
Check Control
Principle
Check Control monitors vehicle functions and alerts you to any faults in the monitored sys-tems.
General
A Check Control message is displayed as a combination of indicator or warning lights and text messages in the instrument cluster and, if applicable, in the Head-up display.
An acoustic signal may also be output and a text message shown on the control display.
