If the lamp flashes and a tone is heard at the same time when driving, first
check the coolant temperature being displayed.
If the needle is in the normal zone, top the coolant up at the next
opportunity.
If the reading is in the right hand area, the temperature of the coolant level
is too high. S St

Additional lights in front of the cooling air intake interfere with the flow of
cooling air. At high ambient temperatures and full throttle there isa danger
that the engine will then overheat.
K
Fuel gauge
The gauge starts to work when the ignition is switched on. The
warning lamp will light up for a few seconds as a functional check
when the ignition is switched on.
The tank holds about 45 litres.
When the needle moves to the red reserve zone, warning light
d
lights up at the same time that an acoustic warning signal is
produced; this means that approximately 7 litres of fuel remain.
K
Speedometer
The speedometer is fitted with a digital mileage clock and a trip
mileage clock, as well as a service interval indicator*.
During the running in period you must note the instructions in the
chapter "The first 1,500 km and afterwards".

The knob can be used to set the clock to the exact second.
• Turn the knob to the right until the time is set to exactly one
minute before the required time.
• Turn the button to the right just as the seconds indicator of an

– the coolant pump is no
longer being driven. The belt must be checked/ renewed.
If the warning lamp comes on even though the ribbed belt is not
broken or loose, you can generally wait to have this checked at the
next scheduled service.
As the battery will continue to discharge, all electrical consumers
which are not absolutely necessary should be switched off.
K
Parking light/dipped beam
Dipped beam, parking or side light pilot light (green). Works with
the ignition off.
K
Power steering*
The warning lamp will light up for a few seconds as a functional
check when the ignition is switched on.
The warning lamp comes on when the hydraulic oil level is not
sufficient or in case of a failure in the electrical system.
An acoustic signal warns the driver (1 bip).
Contact a Technical Service Centre.

When towing the car with the engine shut down or in case of a breakdown
in the servo-steering mechanism, the power steering remains out of order.
