Useful information
This Operator's Manual describes all models
as well as standard and optional equipment of your vehicle that were available at the time of going to print. Country-specific variations are
possible. Note that your vehicle may not be
equipped with all of the described functions.
This also applies to systems and functions
relevant to safety.
Read the information on qualified specialist
workshops (Y page 25). Important safety notes
G
WARNING
If you are driving and reach through the steer- ing wheel to operate the adjustment knob,
you could lose control of the vehicle. There is
a risk of an accident and injury.
Only operate the adjustment knobs when the vehicle is stationary. Do not reach through the
steering wheel when driving. G
WARNING
If you operate information systems and com-
munication equipment integrated in the vehi- cle while driving, you will be distracted from
traffic conditions. You could also lose control of the vehicle. There is a risk of an accident.
Only operate the equipment when the traffic
situation permits. If you are not sure that this
is possible, park the vehicle paying attention
to traffic conditions and operate the equip-
ment when the vehicle is stationary. G
WARNING
If the instrument cluster has failed or mal-
functioned, you may not recognize function
restrictions in systems relevant to safety. The operating safety of your vehicle may be
impaired. There is a risk of an accident.
Drive on carefully. Have the vehicle checked
at a qualified specialist workshop immedi-
ately. You must observe the legal requirements for
the country in which you are currently driving
when operating the on-board computer.
The on-board computer display only shows
messages and warnings from certain sys-
tems. You should therefore make sure your
vehicle is operating safely at all times. If the
operating safety of your vehicle is impaired,
stop the vehicle as soon as possible, paying
attention to road and traffic conditions. Then consult a qualified specialist workshop. Instrument cluster

! Do not drive in the overrevving range, as
this could damage the engine. H
Environmental note
Avoid driving at high engine speeds. This
unnecessarily increases the fuel consumption of your vehicle and harms the environment asa result of increased emissions.
The red band in the tachometer indicates the engine's overrevving range.
To protect the engine, the fuel supply is inter-
rupted when the red band is reached. Outside temperature
You should pay special attention to road con-
ditions when temperatures are around the
freezing point. On vehicles without steering wheel buttons
(Y page 182) and on vehicles with steering
wheel buttons (Y page 187), the outside tem-
perature display is in the display.
Changes in the outside temperature are dis-
played after a short delay. Speedometer
The speed can also be shown in the display.
You can find information on the digital speed-
ometer for vehicles without steering wheel
buttons under (Y page 182) and for vehicles
with steering wheel buttons under
