Default Instrument panel display option

I recall seeing a picture of the instrument panel displaying stats of the car (e.g., temperature, MPG, etc.) in a quadrant format, and am wondering if anyone knows how to access that function. I've spent the better part of the last 3 days scouring pages on this forum in the hopes of finding it again with no luck.

Any help in confirming if this function exists and/or in helping to enable it would be much appreciated.

Thank you!

I personally have not seen it on our 2016 F Type company cars. If you look at your owners manual it appears that its a market specific function.

INSTRUMENT PANEL MENU
Do not allow any vehicle system, including
the interactive controls, to distract the driver
while the vehicle is moving. Driver distraction
can lead to accidents, causing serious injury
or death.
A number of vehicle features and display
settings may be configured via the Instrument
panel menus.
To display the Instrument panel menu, press
the MENU OK button on the steering wheel.
To navigate through the Instrument panel
menus, operate the menu control buttons on
the steering wheel.
1. MENU OK button.
2. Up button: Press to scroll up through the
menu.
3. Down button: Press to scroll down through
the menu.
4. > button: Press to select the sub-menu.
The following menus are available:
• Trip computer.
• Display settings.
Note: Some personalization options may
not be available in all markets.

Yep, in the menu as described by WhiteTardis. Mine has 3 options:
- Radio display (name of current radio station, basically)
- 'Logo' (the leaper)
- Trip info (the quadrant info described in first post)

There's nothing to enable, it's just there (or presumably not if it's been deactivated for some inexplicable reason on US cars...mine is a UK car).

Just double-checked on mine as it was bugging me!

Menu > Display settings > Info panel

Were you looking for something other than this?

Wasn't this only for 14 and 15 model years?

Sorry, unclear. I was referring to the 4 way split circle the OP was referring to. I think that was only 14 and 15 model years.

The 14-15 model years certainly do not have that capability--just the two bar graphs on each side.

Was able to find the feature. Thanks again to all who helped point me in the right way. Here's a pic of what I was referring to:

Thanks all! I was not even aware this info was available in this format. Under display settings, the keyword is "widgets" that brings up this screen. I will be using this as my default setting. I was afraid I would wear out the signal stalk button since I was regularly scrolling through the trip info before.

On U.S. models (at least on the MY16) at steering wheel:
1. Hit Menu
2. Scroll up or down to Display Settings, hit Menu
3. Scroll up or down to Widgets, hit Menu
4. Scroll up or down to Trip Summary, hit Menu
5. Scroll to left a few times to exit.

Default 2017 similar

The MY2017 premium has a similar path to get all that data up in the cluster. No menu item listed as 'widgets', but pretty intuitive to find. I didn't map my path, but not hard to recreate if someone needs it. Would like to know how to do the reset of the mileage in upper left.
