On Board Computer

On Board Computer (540)







The on board computer functions of the E38 are carried over to the 540. The BC processing is a function of the IKE and can be displayed in the cluster matrix or on the MID.

The following BC functions are available for display:

- Time/Date - Distance - Limit
- Arrival Time - Stop Watch - Average Speed
- Code - Range - Average fuel consumption
- Two Timers for programming parked car ventilation

Operation and programming of the BC is carried out with the MID as on the E38.

The menu displays change as each function is called up for programming/resetting purposes. This includes the changeover functions for the clock, mileage and MPG displays.

BC functions can be displayed in the cluster matrix by pressing the turn signal lever as in the past.

The cluster displays can be programmed for number of displays and order of appearance. This procedure is the same as on the E338 system.

The CODE function is the same as on the E38 with EWS. Setting a code with the BC will override the EWS cancellation of the drive away protection when the correct key is used.

The emergency deactivation is also the same as on the E38. A 10 minute wait time is required after disconnect/re-connection of the battery before the code is canceled.
