Tachometer Engine oil temperature Fuel gauge During the warm-up period, the display
lamps in the orange caution zone indi-
cate the maximum recommended
engine speed for the current engine
temperature. As the engine warms to its
normal operating temperature, the
lamps in this adaptive display then go
out, one after the other.
Avoid allowing the engine speed to rise
into the caution zone.
Do not operate the engine with the
needle in the red overspeed zone of the
gauge.
To protect the engine, the engine-
management system interrupts the fuel
supply when you approach this sector.39mus023
The normal operating temperature
range is between + 176 7 (+ 80 6) and
+ 248 7 (+ 120 6). Do not exceed the
maximum temperature of +302 7
(+150 6). 39mus024
When you switch on the ignition, the
indicator lamp lights up briefly as an
operation check.
If the indicator lamp comes on and
stays on, there are approx. 2.5 gal
(10 liters) of fuel still in the tank.
For fuel tank capacity, refer to
page 143.
If the tilt of the vehicle varies (when you
are driving in mountainous areas, for
example), the needle may fluctuate
slightly.
Please refuel early, since driving
to the last drop of fuel can result in
damage to the engine and/or catalytic
converter.<39mus025
