Fuel tank capacity: approx. 18.5 US gallons/
70 liters, including the reserve capacity of

when you are driving in mountainous areas, for
example, the indicator may fluctuate slightly.

message appears for a short time on the Con-
trol Display; the remaining range is shown in the
computer. Below a range of approx. 30 miles/
50 km, the message remains on the Control
