Abstract: A method controls a user interface and an air-conditioning unit of a vehicle. The user interface includes display and operating elements. The method displays a plurality of the elements on the user interface, receives at least two operation parameters of the air-conditioning unit, determines one or more display parameters for a first element from the plurality of elements on the basis of the at least two operation parameters, and displays the first element on the basis of the one or more display parameters.

Abstract: Embodiments generally relate to a method, an apparatus, and a machine-readable medium for displaying information. In particular, embodiments relate to a method comprising generating an interface object in a virtual space, and displaying the information by changing a shape and an orientation of the interface object.

Abstract: Embodiments generally relate to a method, an apparatus, and a machine-readable medium for communicating product information, particularly where the product is a vehicle. Embodiments relate to a method comprising receiving usage information relating to an at least one feature of a product, analyzing the usage information to determine if the received information exceeds a usage threshold, and selecting educational information based on the usage information. The educational information comprises information relating to the at least one feature. The method further comprises selecting an at least one communication channel, and communicating the educational information through the at least one communication channel.

Abstract: A method for determining a route and time frame for the travel of a motor vehicle which assists the driver in planning their travel and in making fuller use of the technical potential of the motor vehicle is provided. For this purpose, the method includes the following steps: acquiring at least one destination, determining a travel route to the at least one destination; acquiring an adjustable travel mode of the motor vehicle for at least one first section of the travel route; determining the route and time frame for the travel of the motor vehicle depending on the acquired travel mode; and displaying the route and time frame of the travel.
