aiming device.

(A-fig. 68) on the plate at the side of the
steering column pressed for a few seconds.IMPORTANTIf the battery is discon-
nected the trip meter reading is not stored. A. Fuel level gauge with reserve warning
light - B. Engine coolant fluid temperature
gauge with maximum temperature warning
light - C. Speedometer - D. Display (mileage
recorder, trip meter and headlamp position

display - F. Rev counter
REV COUNTER
The rev. counter shows engine rpm. The nee-
dle pointed to the danger area (red) indicates
excessive high engine speed. Do not drive for
long periods with the needle in this area.
IMPORTANTThe electronic injection con-
trol system gradually shuts off the flow of fu-
el when the engine is “over-revving” resulting
in a gradual loss of engine power.
When the engine is idling, the rev counter
may indicate a gradual or sudden highering of
the speed, this is normal as it takes place dur-
ing normal operation, for example when en-
gaging the climatecontrol system or the fan.
In particular a slow change in the speed pre-
serves the battery charge.
