Fuel gauge and reserve indicator
Fig. 33 Instrument pan-
el: fuel gauge
Instrument panel: fuel gauge
The fuel tank has a capacity of approx. 55 litres.
When the needle reaches the reserve area ⇒ fig. 33 (arrow), the warning
lamp will light up and an acoustic signal will sound reminding the driver to
refuel. At this point there are still 7 litres of fuel in the tank.
The following text appears on the instrument panel display 1)
PLEASE REFUEL
[XXX]*. Engine coolant temperature gauge
This gauge shows the engine coolant temperature.
Fig. 34 Instrument pan-
el: engine coolant tem-
perature gauge
Needle in cold zone A
Avoid high engine speeds and heavy engine loads
⇒ fig. 34.
Needle in normal zone B
In normal driving conditions, the needle should be in the middle section of
the scale. The temperature may also rise when the engine is working hard,
especially at high outside temperatures. This is no cause for concern as
long as the warning lamp does not light up and no warning message* ap-
pears on the instrument panel display.

Depending on the version of the model.

Cockpit
Needle in warning zone C
The warning lamp* ⇒ fig. 48 2 will light up if the needle is in the warning
zone. The following warning message appears on the instrument panel dis-
play 1)
. Stop the vehicle and switch off the engine. Check the coolant level
⇒ page 224 ⇒
.
Even if the coolant level is correct do not continue driving. You should ob-
tain technical assistance.
WARNING
When working in the engine compartment, always observe the safety
warnings ⇒ page 217.
CAUTION
Accessories in front of the air inlet reduce the cooling effect of the coolant.
At high outside temperatures and high engine loads, there is a risk of the
engine overheating.
Rev counter
The rev counter displays the engine speed in revolutions per
minute. The start of the red zone ⇒ fig. 32 4
indicates the maximum engine speed
operating at service temperature. However, it is advisable to change up a in-
to a higher gear, move the selector lever to D or lift your foot off the acceler-
ator before the needle reaches the red zone.
CAUTION
The rev counter needle must never enter the red zone on the scale. Risk of
engine damage.
For the sake of the environment
Changing up into higher gears sooner, following the recommended gear in-
dications ⇒ fig. 38 will help you to reduce fuel consumption, emissions and
also engine noise.
Speedometer
The speedometer is equipped with a digital odometer and a trip recorder, in
addition to a service intervals display.
During the running-in period, the instructions shown on ⇒ page 189
should be followed.
Setting the digital clock*
The digital clock is located in the instrument panel display.
– Turn the setting knob ⇒ fig. 32 5
clockwise until the first
“click” to set the hour. The hour will flash. To change the hour,
press the button.
– Turn the setting knob clockwise to the second “click” to set the
minutes. The minutes will flash. To change the minutes, press
the button.

WARNING
There could be black ice on the road surface even if the “snowflake sym-
bol” is not shown. For this reason you should not rely exclusively on this
display - Risk of accident!
Note
When the vehicle is stationary or travelling at very low speeds, the tempera-
ture displayed may be slightly higher than the actual outside temperature
as a result of the heat radiated from the engine.
Warning or information message in the display
Faults are shown in the display with warning lamps and
warning/information reports.
The system runs a check on certain components and functions when the ig-
nition is switched on and while the vehicle is moving. Functional faults are
indicated by symbols with warning or information messages in the display.
An acoustic warning is given in certain cases.
Warning symbols
There are red warning symbols (priority 1) and yellow warning symbols (pri-
ority 2)
Information text
In addition to warning messages given on a fault, you will receive informa-
tion in the display on procedures or will be asked to carry out certain tasks.
Note
In the case of screens without warning or information texts, faults are indi-
cated exclusively by the warning lamps.
Warning reports, Priority 1 (red)
If one of these faults occurs, the warning lamp will flash or light up and will
be accompanied by three audible warnings. This is a danger warning. Stop
the vehicle and switch off the engine. Check the fault and correct it. Obtain
professional assistance if necessary.
If several priority 1 faults are detected at the same time, the symbols will be
displayed one after the other for about 2 seconds at a time and will contin-
ue until the fault is corrected.
No menus will be shown in the display for the duration of a priority 1 warn-
ing message.
Examples of priority 1 warning messages (red)
● Brake system symbol with the warning message STOP BRAKE FLUID
SERVICE MANUAL or STOP BRAKE FAULT SERVICE MANUAL .
● Coolant symbol with the warning message STOP SEE COOLANT IN-
STRUCTION MANUAL.
● Engine oil pressure symbol with the warning message STOP ENGINE
OIL PRESSURE LOW! INSTRUCTION MANUAL .
Warning reports, Priority 2 (yellow)
If one of these faults occurs, the warning lamp lights up, and is accompa-
nied by one audible warning. The function should be checked as soon as
possible.

If several priority 2 warning messages are detected at the same time, the
symbols are displayed one after the other for about 2 seconds at a time. Af-
ter a set time, the information text will disappear and the symbol will be
shown as a reminder at the side of the display.
Priority 2 warning messages will not be shown until all Priority 1 warning
messages have been dealt with!

Fuel range in km
The fuel range is calculated using the figures for tank content and current
fuel consumption. It shows how far the vehicle can travel using the same
conditions as a reference.
Distance travelled in km The display shows the distance travelled since the ignition was switched on.
The maximum display value in both memories is 1999 km. The memory will
automatically be deleted once this value has been reached.
Average speed in km/h
The average speed will be shown after a distance of approximately 100 me-
tres has been travelled. Until then dashes will appear in the display. The
display will be updated every five seconds while the vehicle is in motion.
Alternative speed display (mph or km/h)
The speed is also displayed in a second unit of measurement other than
that used on the speedometer.
● Select the menu Configuration using the rocker switch on the windscreen
wiper lever or the buttons on the multifunction steering wheel* ⇒ page 68.
● Select the option Auxiliary speed and press OK
on the windscreen wiper
lever or the multifunction steering wheel*.

.
Speed warning at --- km/h This function may help you to keep within the speed limits. Press the OK
button on the windscreen wiper lever
A or the multifunction steering
wheel* to select the current speed. The instrument panel display gives the
selected speed, for example, Speed warning 120 km/h. You have five sec-
onds to reset the speed between 30 km/h and 250 km/h using rocker switch
B
or buttons or on the multifunction steering wheel*. Press
the OK button or wait five seconds until the speed is stored and the warn-
ing is activated. If the set speed is exceeded, an acoustic signal is heard

km/h below the stored speed. The function is switched off by pressing the OK
button again. Speed warning --- km/h is now displayed on the instru-
ment panel.
Outside temperature display
The measurement margin ranges from -40°C (-40°F) to +50°C (+125°F). At
outside temperatures below +4°C (+39.2°F), the snowflake symbol (ice dan-
ger warning) appears in addition to the outside temperature display. This
symbol flashes for a few seconds and remains lit until the outside tempera-
ture rises above +6°C (+42.8°F).
WARNING
There could be black ice on the road surface even if the “snowflake sym-
bol” is not shown. For this reason you should not rely exclusively on this
display - Risk of accident!
Note
● There are different instrument panels; therefore the multifunction dis-
play may vary.
● When the vehicle is stationary or travelling at very low speeds, the tem-
perature displayed may be slightly higher than the actual outside tempera-
ture as a result of the heat radiated from the engine.
● Vehicles with a multifunction steering wheel* do not have buttons on
the windscreen wiper lever. The multifunction display can only be controlled
from the buttons on the multifunction steering wheel*.
