Engine coolant temperature gauge
T he e ngine coo la nt gauge ~ fig. 2 © only works whe n the ignition is
on . To prevent damage to your engine, please note the following
important po ints:
Engine cold
If the needle is a t or cl ose to the bottom of the gauge, the engine h as
not yet reached its operat ing temperature. Avoid high eng ine speeds,
heavy eng ine loads, and heavy th rott le applica tions.
Normal temperature
W hen the eng ine has reached its operati ng tem perature, the needle
w ill move to the midd le of the gauge and rema in there. If the engine
is working ha rd at hig h ou tside temperat ures, the nee dle may move
higher on the gauge. Th is is not a cause for concern as long as the-~­
wa rning lig ht in t he instr ument clus ter display does not i llumina te. _.,,

Never run the tank completely d ry! An irregular supply of f uel can
cause engine misfiring and fuel could enter into the exhaust system.
T he ca talyt ic conver ter could then overhea t and be damaged. •

Trip computer
Introduction
The trip computer gives you information on current and
average fuel mileage, average speed, fuel range and
driving time .
Fig. 15 Trip computer
di sp lay : Average fuel
mileage
The follow ing information is conti nuously evaluated by the trip
computer and can be displayed sequentially in the instrument cluster
display :
Fuel range
The estimated cruising range in miles (km) appears in the display.
Thi s tells you how far your vehicle will be able to travel on the current
tank of fuel and with the same driv ing style . The display changes in
increments of 6 miles (10 km).
The cruis ing range is ca lculated based on the fuel consumpt ion for
the last 18 miles (30 km). If you drive conservatively, the cruising
range will increase.
Average fuel mileage
The average fuel economy in MPG (l/100 km) s ince you last cleared
the memory appears in this d isp lay. You can use this d isplay to adjust
your dr iving tech nique to achieve a des ired mileage. .,,.

Current fuel mileage
The instantaneous fuel consumption in miles per gallon (l/100 km) is
show n in this display . You can use this disp lay to adjust your driv ing
technique to achieve a desired mileage.
Fuel consumption is recalculated at intervals of 33 yards (30 meters).
Th is display switches to gallons/hour (liters/hour) when the vehicle is
not moving .
Average speed
The average speed in mph (km/h) since the last time the display was
reset appears in the display.
Elapsed time
The length of time that you have been driving since you last reset the
memory appears in this display.
Distance
The distance that has been covered since the last time the memory
was cleared appears in the display .
[I) Tips
• Fuel consumptions (average and current), range and speed are
displayed in metric units on Canadian models.
• All stored values will be lost if the vehicle battery is
disconnected .•

Memories
The trip computer is
equipped with two fully automatic
memories as well as an efficiency program*.
Fig . 16 Trip computer
display: memory level

You can switch between the trip computer 1 and 2 and the efficiency
program* by pressing the [
RESET] button @=> page 26, fig . 17 .
You can tell which memory level is currently active by the number or
the sign in the display => fig. 16. The data from the single-trip
memory (memory leve l 1) is being displayed if a
1 appears in the
display . If a
2 is shown, then the data from the total -trip memory is
being displayed (memory level 2). The fuel pump nozzle
ii indicates
the efficiency program*=>
page 27.
Single-trip memory (Trip computer 1)
The sing le-trip memory stores the trip information from the time the
ignition is turned on until it is turned off. If the trip is continued
within 2 hours from the time the ignition was turned off, the new
data will be included in the calculation of the current trip informa­
tion.
If the trip is interrupted for more than 2 hours the memory is
reset automatically.
Total-tr ip memory (Trip computer 2)
Unlike the single-trip memory, the total-trip memory is not reset
automatically. This permits you to evaluate your driving data for the
entire pe riod between manual resets. _..

switch the d isp lay between the different informat ion, tap the
[RESET I button @ briefly.
Setting values to zero
To delete one current value from the trip computer, select the
desired function and press the
I RESET I button @ for at least one
second. The following values can be set to zero
individually :
• Average fuel mileage
• Average speed
• Elapsed time
• Distance
All curre ntly displayed values are deleted in the effic iency program*.
In addition,
all the values in the single-trip or the total-trip memory
can be deleted simultaneous ly =>

(I) Tips
All stored values will be lost if the vehi cle battery is disconnected. •
Basic Settings for the trip computer
The radio or MM!* operating unit is used for setting the
trip computer's basic settings.
-Select: Function button [CARI> Instrument cluster > On-

or On-board computer 2.
Th e values in the single -trip or the total-trip memory can all be reset
to zero at the same time under
Reset in the menu.
In addition, you can determine what information from the trip
computer should be shown in the instrument cluster display.
If one
of the p ieces of driver information is turned
Off , that driver informa­
tion will not be shown in the display. The information w ill continue to
be calculated by the trip computer and can be turned back
On at any

& WARNING
Alwa ys observe the posted speed limits and adjust your speed to
suit pre vailing road, traffi c and weather condition s. Never drive
your vehicle fa ster than the maximum speed rating of the tires
installed .•
Speed warning system
Overview
Th e speed war ning syst em helps you to keep your d riv ing
speed below a set speed limit.
Th e speed warning system warns if the dr iver exceeds a prev iously
sto red ma ximum speed. A warning tone will sound as soon as the
vehicle speed exceeds the set speed by about 3 mph (3 km/h). At the
same time, a warning symbol appears in t he di sp lay. The symbo l's
appea rance might be different in some models .
T he speed warn ing system has two warnin g thresho lds th at f unctio n
independently of eac h oth er and that have somewhat diffe rent
purposes:
Speed warning 1
Yo u ca n use speed war ning 1 to set the maximum speed wh ile you a re
driving. This setting will remain in effect until you turn off t he igni­
tion , assuming t hat you have not changed or reset t he setting .
T he speed w arnin g symbo l
0 (USA mo dels) /8 (Canada mode ls) in
the warning 1 display appears when you exceed the maximum speed .
It goes out whe n the speed falls be low the stored max imum s peed.
T he speed warning symbo l will a lso go out if the speed
exceeds the
stored maximum s peed by more than about 2 5 mph ( 40 km/h) fo r at
least 10 seconds . The stored maximum speed is deleted.
Speed warning 2
Storing warn ing 2 is recommended if you always want to be reminded
of a ce rta in speed, fo r example when yo u are traveling in a country
that has a general maxim um speed limit, or if you do not want to
exceed a specified speed for win ter tires .
The speed warn ing 2 symbol,
8. ( U SA models)/ 8. (Canada models)
appea rs in the d isp lay w hen you exceed the store d speed limi t. U nlike
warning 1, it will not go o ut until the vehicle speed drops be low the
sto red speed limi t.
Sett ing speed warn ing 2

[I] Tips
Even thoug h your vehicle is eq uipped with a speed warning system,
you should st ill watch the speedometer to make sure you are not
dr iv ing fast er th an the speed lim it. •
Speed warning 1: setting a speed limit
Wa rnin g thresho ld 1 is set by the [ SE T] button.

[S ET ] button for more than 2 seconds .
The speed warning symbo l E, (USA models)/8 (Canada models) will
appear b riefly in the display when yo u release the

indicate that the maximum speed has been stored s uccessfully.
T he maxim um speed rema ins sto red until it is changed by p ressing
the
[ SET I button again briefly or until it is de leted by a lengthy push
on the button. •
Speed warning 2: setting a speed limit
The radio or MM I* contro l unit is us ed to set, change or
delete warning threshold 2.
- Select: Funct ion button [CAR I> Instrument cluster >

Warning thresho ld 2 can be set in the speed range starting from 20
mph to lS0 mph (30 km/h to 240 km/h) . Settings can each be
adjusted in interva ls of 6 mph (10 km/h). •
