See full text

In a method for displaying information with the aid of a display mounted in a motor vehicle, graphic data which actuate at least a subregion of the display are generated by a user interface device, such that in an operation state, information assigned to at least one operator step able to be executed by an input device are generated and in a display state, information not assigned to any operator steps is displayed, and it is detected when an object enters an operator control zone assigned to the input device, and when it leaves the operator control zone. The method is characterized in that the user interface device switches from the operating state to the display state when the object leaves the operator control zone and does not reenter the operator control zone within a defined time interval. A display device is adapted for executing this method.
