A vehicle receives a script with a command for graphically designing a display and a command for reading a data value from a memory of the vehicle. The script is executed by an interpreter, as a result of which the data value is read from the memory and a display is provided on a display device. The graphical design of the display is prescribed by the script and contains a partial presentation determined by the data value. The use of scripts provides a particularly high level of flexibility for the graphical presentation.
