Vehicles with steering-wheel buttons:

In vehicles with Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC, there are illuminated segments on the speedometer dial.

These segments show you what speed range is available:

  • Variable limiter activated More

    The segments light up from the start of the scale to the selected limit speed.

  • Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC switched on More

    One or two segments light up in the saved speed range.

  • Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC detects a vehicle in front.

    The segments light up from the speed of the vehicle in front up to the saved speed.

You can show the speed as a digital speedometer on the display as well.

If you change your vehicle's wheel size, check its assignment to the wheel size group More. If the assignment changes without recoding the control units in the vehicle, the speedometer will not display the speed accurately. The current vehicle speed may then be higher than the speed shown by the speedometer. Driving and driving safety systems may then be operationally impaired or may detect a malfunction and switch themselves off.

In some countries, an audible signal will sound and/or a message will appear on the display when the vehicle reaches the maximum speed permitted by law, e.g. at 120 km/h.

NOTE Engine damage due to maximum engine speed being exceeded

If the maximum permissible engine speed is exceeded, the engine may be damaged.

Avoid driving in the red speed range (danger zone).
Outside temperature display

You should pay special attention to road conditions when temperatures are around freezing point.

The outside temperature is displayed on the multifunction display More.

Changes in the outside temperature will be displayed after a short delay.

Coolant temperature display
WARNING Risk of burns when opening the bonnet
If you open the bonnet when the engine has overheated or when there is a fire in the engine compartment, the following situations may occur:

  • You could come into contact with hot gases.

  • You could come into contact with other hot, escaping operating fluids.

Before opening the bonnet, allow the engine to cool down.
In the event of a fire in the engine compartment, keep the bonnet closed and call the fire service.

In vehicles without steering-wheel buttons, you can show the coolant temperature on the display More.

In vehicles with steering-wheel buttons, there is an analogue coolant temperature display on the instrument cluster's rev counter.

During normal driving and if the coolant level is correct, the display is permitted to rise to the following temperature:

  • Vehicles with front-wheel drive: up to 110°C

  • Vehicles with rear-wheel drive: up to 120°C
