The rev counter indicates the number of en-

olutions per minute ››› Fig. 115 1 .
T og
ether with the gear-change indicator, the
rev counter offers you the possibility of using
the engine of your vehicle at a suitable
speed.
The start of the red zone on the dial indicates
the maximum engine speed which may be
used briefly when the engine is warm and af-
ter it has been run in properly. Before reach-
ing this range, you should change to a higher
gear for vehicles with a manual gearbox or for
automatic gearboxes put the selector lever in
“D” or take your foot off the accelerator ped-
al.
We recommend that you avoid high revs and
that you follow the recommendations on the
gear-change indicator. Consult the additional
information in ›››

indicator. CAUTION
Never allow the rev counter needle 1 ›››

scale for more than a very brief period, other-
wise there is a risk of engine damage. For the sake of the environment
Changing up a gear early will help you to save

Even though outside temperatures are above

on the road.
● Do not rely on the outside temperature in-

case of displays without warning or informa-

the warning lamps.
● Depending on the equipment, some set-

Spare key
To obtain a spare key and other vehicle keys,
the vehicle chassis number is required.
Each new key contains a microchip which
must be coded with the data from the vehicle

Unlocking the vehicle is confirmed with a
double flash of the indicator lights; locking
by a single flash.
If the vehicle is locked and then all doors and
the rear lid are closed leaving the last key
used inside the vehicle and none outside,
the vehicle will not lock immediately. All the
vehicle's indicator lights will flash four times.
The vehicle will lock again after a few sec-

lid.
If you unlock the vehicle but fail to open any
door or the rear lid, the vehicle will lock again
after a few seconds.

Convenience turn signals
F or the c
onvenience turn signals, move the
lever as far as possible upwards or down-
wards and release the lever. The turn signal
will flash three times.
The convenience turn signals are activated
and deactivated in the Easy Connect system
via the  key and the
Set
up function button
› ›

› page 108.
In vehicles that do not have the correspond-
ing menu, this function can be deactivated in
a specialised workshop. WARNING
Improper or lack of use of the turn signals, or
f or

getting to deactivate them can confuse
other road users. This could result in a seri-
ous accident.
● Always give warning when you are going to
ch
ange lane, overtake or when turning, acti-
vating the turn signal in good time.
● As soon as you have finished changing
lane, o
vertaking or turning, switch the turn
signal off. WARNING
Incorrect use of the headlights may cause ac-
c ident

s and serious injury, as the main beam
may distract or dazzle other drivers. Note
● If the c

onvenience turn signals are operat-
ing (three flashes) and the other convenience
turn signals are switched on, the active part
stops flashing and only flashes once in the
new part selected.
● The turn signal only works when the igni-
tion is
switched on. The hazard warning
lights also work when the ignition is switch-
ed off.
● If a trailer turn signal malfunctions, the
contr
ol lamp will stop flashing (trailer turn
signals) and the vehicle turn signal will flash
at double speed.
● The main beam he
adlights can only be
switched on if the dipped beam headlights
are already on.
● In cold or damp weather conditions, the
hea
dlights, tail lights and turn signals may
mist up inside temporarily. This is normal and
in no way effects the useful life of the vehicle
lighting system. Automatic dipped beam control

The f
o

llowing conditions may prevent the
main beam headlight control from turning off the headlights in time or from turning off al-
tog

ether:
● In poorly lit towns with highly reflective
sign
s.
● Other insufficiently lit road users (such as
pedes
trians or cyclists).
● On tight bends and steep slopes (bumps)
and when oncomin
g vehicles are partially ob-
scured.
● When the drivers of other oncoming vehi-
cl

es (such as a truck) can see over a guard
rail in the centre of the road.
● If the camera is damaged or the power sup-
ply
is cut off.
● In fog, snow and heavy rain.
● With dust and sand turbulence.
● With loose gravel in the field of vision of
the camer
a.
● When the field of vision of the camera is
mis
ted up, dirty or covered by stickers, snow,
ice, etc. WARNING
The convenience features of the main beam
a s

sist should not encourage the taking of
risks. The system is not a replacement for
driver concentration.
● You are always in control of the main beam
and ad
apting it to the light, visibility and traf-
fic conditions. ●
It i

s possible that the main beam headlight
control does not recognise all driving situa-
tions and is limited under certain circumstan-
ces.
● When the field of vision of the camera is
dirty
, covered or damaged, operation of the
main beam control may be affected. This also
applies when changes are made to the vehi-
cle lighting system, for example, if additional
headlights are installed. CAUTION
To avoid affecting the operation of the sys-
t em, t

ake the following points into considera-
tion:
● Clean the field of vision of the camera regu-
larly
and make sure it is free of snow and ice.
● Do not cover the field of vision of the cam-
era.
● Chec

k that the windscreen is not damaged
in the are
a of the field of vision of the camera. Note

Operation
6. Use the warning triangle to draw the atten- tion of other r
oad users to your vehicle.
7. Always take the vehicle key with you when you l
eave the vehicle.
All turn signals flash simultaneously when
the hazard warning lights are switched on.
The two turn signal turn signal lamps  
and the turn signal lamp in the switch  will
flash at the same time. The simultaneous
hazard warning lights also work when the ig-
nition is switched off.
Emergency braking warning
If the vehicle brakes suddenly and continu-
ously at a speed of more than 80 km/h (50
mph), the brake light flashes several times
per second to warn the vehicles driving be-
hind. If you continue braking, the hazard
warning lights will come on automatically
when the vehicle comes to a standstill. They
switch off automatically when the vehicle
starts to move again. WARNING
● The ri sk

of an accident increases if your ve-
hicle breaks down. Always use the hazard
warning lights and a warning triangle to draw
the attention of other road users to your sta-
tionary vehicle.
● Due to the high temperatures that the cata-
lytic c
onverter can reach, never park in an
area where the catalytic converter could come into contact with highly inflammable materi-
a
l

s, for example dry grass or spilt petrol. This
could start a fire. Note
● The b att

ery will run down if the hazard
warning lights are left on for a long time,
even if the ignition is switched off.
● The use of the hazard warning lights de-
sc
ribed here is subject to the relevant statu-
tory requirements. Parking lights
When the parking light is switched on, (right
or l
ef

t turn signal), the front side light and
the rear light on the corresponding side of
the vehicle stay lit. The parking lights can on-
ly be activated with the ignition switched off
and the turn signal and main beam lever in
the central position, before being triggered.
Parking light on both sides With the ignition switched off and the light
sw
it

ch in position , when locking the vehi-
cle from the outside, the parking lights on
both sides of the vehicle light up. In doing
so, only the side lights of both headlights
light up, and additionally the tail lights will
do so partially. Motorway light* The motorway light is available on vehicles
equip
ped w

ith full-LED lights.
The function is connected/disconnected via
the corresponding Easy Connect system
menu.
● Activation: when goin
g above 110 km/h
(68 mph) for more than 30 seconds, the dip-
ped beam raises slightly to increase the driv-
er's visibility distance.
● Deactivation: when r educ
ing the speed of
the car below 100 km/h (62 mph), the dip-
ped beam returns to its normal position.
Driving abroad The light beam of the dipped beam lights is
a
symmetric: the s

ide of the road on which
you are driving is lit more intensely.
When a car that is manufactured in a country
that drives on the right travels to a country
that drives on the left (or vice versa), it is nor-
mally necessary to cover part of the headlight
bulbs with stickers or to change the adjust-
ment of the headlights to avoid dazzling oth-
er drivers.
In such cases, the regulations specify certain
light values that must be complied with for
designated points of the light distribution.
This is known as “Tourist light”.
