Method and apparatus for displaying a critical range of values of a first vehicle-specific parameter in a vehicle

The invention relates to a method for displaying a critical range of values ​​of a first vehicle-specific parameter in a vehicle (1), in which the instantaneous value of the first parameter is determined. In a region (26) on a display surface (7) at least one scale (27) which displays possible values ​​of the first parameter and which is divided into a plurality of divisions of the scale (1.27 to 8.27), and a graphic element (28), which is the indicating instantaneous value of the first parameter on the scale (27) displayed. Furthermore, the area (26) of the display surface (7) when the first parameter has reached a predetermined critical value, controlled such that at least one scale division (27.1) is changed to the scale such that the scale member (27.1) at least partially as a critical range of values ​​of the first parameter is highlighted. Furthermore, the invention relates to a device (3) for displaying a critical range of values ​​of a first vehicle-specific parameter in a vehicle (1).
