A WARNING
-
If the engine stops while driving, you will
need to use more force to brake the vehicle .
This increases the risk of an accident . There
will still be power steering if the ignition is
switched on while the vehicle is rolling and
there is sufficient battery charge. Otherwise,
you must use greater force when steering.
~ Front safety belt
The. indicator light stays on until the driver's

Tachometer
The tachometer displays the engine speed in rev­
olutions per minute (RPM) .
The beginning of the red zone in the tachometer
indicates the maximum permissible engine speed
for all gears once the engine has been broken in
and when it is warm. Before reaching the red
zone, you should shift into the next higher gear,
choose the Dor S selector lever position, or re­
move your foot from the accelerator pedal.
@ Note
The needle in the tachometer may only be in
the red area of the gauge for a short per iod of
time or there is a risk of damaging the engine .
The location where the red zone begins varies
depending on the engine.
@) For the sake of the environment
Upshifting early helps you to save fuel and re­
duce operating noise.
Odometer
Fig. 12 Instrument cluste r: odomete r and reset button
Trip odometer and odometer
The trip odometer shows the distance driven
since it was last reset . It can be used to measure
short distances .
The trip odometer can be reset to zero by press­ ing the reset button 10.01

Malfunction indicator
If there is a malfunction in the instrument clus­
ter,
DEF will appear in the trip odometer disp lay.
Have the malfunction corrected as soon as possi ­
ble.
On-board computer
You can access the following information in the
on-board computer
r=> page 19, fig . 5 @ .
-Time and date ~page 174
-Average consumption
-Range
- Short-term memory overv iew
- Long-term memory overview
The short -term memory collects driving informa­
tion from the time the ignition is switched on un ­
til it is switched off. If you continue driving with·
in two hours after switching the ignition off, the
new values are included when calculating the cur­
rent trip information .
Unlike the short-term memory, the long-term
memory is not erased automatically. You can se­
lect the time period for evaluating trip informa­
tion yourself .
Fuel consumption
The current fuel consumption can be shown us­
ing a bar graph . The average consumption stored
in the short-term memory is also displayed. If
the bar is green, your vehicle is saving fuel
through one of the following functions:
- Recuperation : electrical energy can be stored in
the vehicle battery when the vehicle is coasting or driving downhill. The bar will move toward
CJ .

Opening and closing
& WARNING
No one, especially children, should stay in the
vehicle when it is locked from the outside, be ­
cause the w indows can no longer be opened

page 30. Locked doors
make it more difficu lt for eme rgency workers
to get into the vehicle, which puts lives at
risk.
@ Tips
- Only use the remote control key when you
a re within view of the vehicle.
- Do not use the remote control when you are

in tent ionally lock the vehicle. If you then
tried to start the engine or open a door, the
alarm would be triggered. If this happens,
press the un lock button@.
- The selector lever must be in the P position
on vehicles with a convenience key*. Other­

circulation .
The air quality sensor that is de­
signed for diese l and gasoline exhaust auto­
matically switches the recirculation mode on or
off depend ing on the level of pollutants in the
outside air .
In recircu lation mode, the air inside the vehicle is
circu lated and filtered . This prevents the unfil­
tered air outside the vehicle from entering the
vehicle interio r. We recommend switching recir ­
culation mode on when dr iv ing through a tunnel
or when sitting in traffic

You should not use the recirculation mode for
an extended period since no fresh a ir is drawn
in. With the air-conditioning switched off, the
windows can fog up, which increases the risk
of an acc ident .

Driving
-Never turn off the engine before the vehicle
has come to a complete stop.
- The brake booster and power steering only
work when the engine is running. If the en­
gine is
off, you have to use more force when
steering or braking. Because you cannot
steer and brake as you usually would, this
could lead to accidents and serious injuries.
(D Note
Avoid high engine speed, full throttle, and
heavy engine load if the engine has not
reached operating temperature yet. You could
damage the engine.
@ For the sake of the environment
Do not let the engine run while parked to
warm up. Begin driving immediately . This re­
duces unnecessary emissions.
{D) Tips
-Some noise after starting the engine is nor­
mal and is no cause for concern.
- If you leave the vehicle with the ignition
switched on, the ignition will switch
off af­
ter a certain amount of time . Make sure that
electrical equipment such as the exterior
lights are switched
off.
Stopping the engine
.,. Bring the vehicle to a full stop.
.,. Move the selector lever into the P position .
... Press the
I START ENGINE STOPI button
¢ page 57, fig. 60.
Emergency off function*
If it is absolutely necessary, the engine can also
be turned
off while driving at speeds starting at
4 mph (7 km/h). To switch the engine
off, press
the
! START ENGINE STOPI button twice in a row
briefly or press and hold for longer than two sec­
onds.
_&. WARNING
- Never turn off the engine before the vehicle
has come to a complete stop.
58
- Please note that the brake booster and pow­
er steering only work when the engine is
running. When the engine
off, you must use
more force to steer or brake the vehicle. Be­
cause the usual steering and braking capa­
bility is not available, the risk of accidents or
. . . . mJunes increases.
- For safety reasons, always park the vehicle
with the selector lever in the P position.
Otherwise, there is the risk that the vehicle
could roll.
- After the engine has been switched off, the
radiator fan can continue to run for up to 10
minutes -even with the ignition switched
off. It can also switch on again after some
time if the coolant temperature rises as the
result of heat buildup or if the engine is al­
ready warm and the engine compartment is
also heated by the sun's rays.
(D Note
If the engine has been under heavy load for
an extended period of time, heat builds up in
the engine compartment after th@ engine is
switched
off and there is a risk of damaging
the engine . For this reason, let the engine run
at idle for approximately two minutes before
shutting it
off.
