The display screen "since start" of "since reset" for the journey time can be activated the via the system selection button (S110s3) and scroll forwards and backwards button (S110s1) of the multifunction steering wheel.

The four wheel speed signals are analyzed for the mileages traveled. They are transmitted as a message on the engine compartment CAN from the ESP, SPS and BAS control module (N47-5) to the instrument cluster (A1). Counting the travel distance takes place in parallel with the counting of the odometer function of the instrument cluster (A1).

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