lamps
The concept
Indicator and warning lamps can light up in
various combinations and colors in indicator

Some lamps will be tested for proper functioning
when the engine is started or the ignition is
switched on and will therefore light up briefly.
What to do in case of a malfunction
A list of all indicator and warning lamps, as well
as notes on possible caus es of malfunctions and
on how to respond, can be found starting on
page 172.

In this chapter, all production, country, and
optional equipment that is offered in the model
range is described. Equipment is also described
that is not available because of, for example,
selected options or coun try version. This also
applies to safety relate d functions and systems.
Fuel gauge
Fuel tank capacity
Approx. 13.2 US gal/50 liters.
You can find information on refueling on
page129.
If the tilt of the vehicle varies for a longer period,
when you are driving in mountainous areas, for
example, the indicator may fluctuate slightly.
The arrow next to the gas pump symbol of the
fuel gauge points toward the side of the vehicle
with the fuel filler flap.
Reserve
Once the fuel level has fallen to the reserve zone
of approx. 2.1 US gal/8 liters, the remaining indi-
cator lamps change from orange to red, arrow.
The tachometer displays the remaining cruising
range. A warning lamp comes on when the
remaining range is less than approx. 30 miles/
50 km. If the range displayed is less than
30 miles/50 km, be sure to refuel; other-
