A pivotable display system having a traction spring tensioned to reversibly pivot the display around a pivot axis of a shaft connected to an upper portion of a display in a direction from a front side of the display toward the rear side of the display. In the event of an accident-related application of force below a threshold, the display is rotatable in a rearward direction toward an instrument panel, so that a steering column pushed in a direction towards the display avoids or at least reduces the risk of destruction of the display. In the event of accident-related application of force above the threshold, the traction spring may reversibly displace the display upwardly away from the steering column.

Holding arrangement and vehicle

A display with a two-dimensional display element, which is planar or curved, and an illumination unit for the display element is disclosed. The display has a light source, a light guide and a receiving housing in which the light guide is arranged. The light guide is centered in the middle in its longitudinal direction by means of a centering element in the receiving housing.
