Rev counter
The rev counter indicates the number of engine revolutions
per minute.
Fig. 39 Detailed view of
the instrument panel:
Rev counter
You should select a lower gear if the engine speed drops below 1500 rpm.
The start of the red zone on the dial indicates the maximum engine speed
which may be used when the engine is warm and after it has been run in
properly. Before reaching this zone, a higher gear must be selected or your
foot must be removed from the accelerator.
CAUTION
The rev counter needle ⇒ fig. 39 must only reach the red zone for a short
period, otherwise the engine could be damaged. The start of the red zone
on the dial is different for some engine versions.
For the sake of the environment
Changing up into higher gears sooner following the recommended gear in-
dications ⇒ fig. 50 will help you to reduce fuel consumption, emissions and
also engine noise. Digital clock and date
Your vehicle is equipped with a quartz clock.

Unlocking and locking
2 remote control keys
In certain European markets, vehicles with alarm are equipped with 2 re-
mote control keys.
WARNING
● Always take the key with you when leaving the vehicle, even if you
only intend to be gone for a short time. This is particularly important if
there are children in the vehicle, as they might otherwise be able to start
the engine or use power-operated equipment (e.g. the electric windows),
which could cause injuries.
● Wait for the vehicle to come to a standstill before removing the igni-
tion key from the lock! Otherwise, the steering lock could engage sud-
denly, causing an accident.
Indicator light on the remote control key
The condition of the battery in the remote control key is
monitored by the indicator light.
Fig. 68 LED on the re-
mote control key
Condition of the key battery
The indicator light ⇒ fig. 68 (arrow) flashes when one of the buttons is
pressed. If the indicator light does not light up or flash, this means that the
battery is exhausted and must be replaced.
Replacing the batteries ⇒ page 98.

Unlocking and locking
Note
● The remote control is automatically disabled when the ignition is switch-
ed on.
● The function of the remote control may be impaired by interference from
other nearby radio signals (e.g. from a mobile phone or TV transmitter) if
these are in the same frequency range.
Locking and unlocking the vehicle
Fig. 77 Remote control
key: Control buttons
Unlocking the vehicle
–
Press button A ⇒ fig. 77 for about 1 second.
Locking the vehicle
–
Press button B for about 1 second. Opening the tailgate
–
Press button C and hold for at least one second.
The turn signals will flash twice as confirmation when you unlock the vehi-
cle. The vehicle will be locked again automatically if you do not open one of
the doors or the tailgate within 60 seconds after unlocking the vehicle with
button A
. This function prevents the vehicle from remaining unlocked if the
unlocking button is pressed by mistake.
In vehicles with the security central locking* feature, you can unlock just
the driver door and the tank flap by pressing button A
once or the whole
vehicle by pressing the button twice.
The turn signals flash once when the vehicle is locked to confirm that the
doors and tailgate are properly locked.
Moreover, apart from unlocking the vehicle, the seat* and mirror* memory
programmed in the key is activated. The driver seat and exterior mirrors will
be automatically adjusted to the positions stored in the memory.
The interior lights will automatically light up when the vehicle is unlocked
and go out when the vehicle is locked, provided that the switch is in the
courtesy light position.
WARNING
Do not leave anyone (especially children) in the vehicle if it is locked from
the outside and the anti-theft security system is enabled, as the doors
and windows cannot then be opened from the inside. Locked doors could
delay assistance in an emergency, potentially putting lives at risk.

tour of the lumbar support.
Adjusting the height
– Press the top part of the adjuster switch to move the contour
upwards.

tour down.
The lumbar support provides effective support for the natural curvature of
the spine to give a more relaxed seating position, especially on long jour-
neys. Driver seat memory*
Description
The memory buttons in the driver door can be used to store
and recall up to four different positions for the driver seat
and exterior mirrors.
Fig. 110 Driver door:
Memory system
Memory buttons
Using memory buttons 1, 2, 3 and 4 ⇒ fig. 110, you can store and recall the
seat and exterior mirror positions for up to four different drivers.
STOP
button
The seat memory will be disabled if the STOP button is in the up position
(press and release). The word will light up next to the STOP button (only
visible when the lights are switched on).
The stored settings will all remain in the memory. However, the seat and the
exterior mirrors can now only be adjusted using the conventional electrical

system when the vehicle is being driven temporarily by a different driver
whose settings do not need to be stored in the memory.
Note
You can also use the remote control to call up the stored settings
⇒ page 139.
Storing settings
The STOP button must be in its down position (pressed in) before
you can store the desired settings.
– Adjust the driver seat as required ⇒ page 135.
– Adjust both exterior mirrors ⇒ page 131.
– Press and hold the MEMO
button. At the same time, press one
of the memory buttons for at least a second.
– Release both buttons. The setting is now stored on the selected
memory button.
Any new setting selected automatically cancels the existing setting stored
on the memory button. It is best to begin with memory button No. 1 for the
first driver and then assign the other memory buttons to each subsequent
driver.
The seat and mirror positions are stored when the vehicle is locked with the
remote control and are assigned to the remote control key. The exterior mir-
rors adjust automatically to the previous position when you unlock the vehi-
cle; the driver seat adjusts automatically when you open the driver door.
However, this does not delete the settings stored in memory buttons 1 to 4.
These settings can be enabled at any time. Activating settings
Stored settings can be recalled using either the memory but-
tons or the remote control (remote control key).
Using the memory buttons
– If the driver door is open, press the desired memory button
briefly.
– If the driver door is closed, press and hold down the appropri-
ate memory button until the seat and exterior mirrors reach
their programmed positions.
Using the remote control
– Unlock the vehicle using the remote control and open the driver
door within the next ten minutes.
The seat adjustment will have to be called up using the memory buttons if
the driver door is not opened within 10 minutes after unlocking the vehicle
with the remote control.
WARNING
● For safety reasons, the seat must only be adjusted when the vehicle
is at a standstill. Failure to do so could result in an accident.
● In an emergency, the memory function can be stopped at any time by
pressing the STOP button or by briefly pressing any of the memory but-
tons.
