Control lamp with the word (front passenger airbag
disabled)
If the front passenger front airbag is disabled, after switching on the igni-
tion, the control lamp will light up for several seconds, then it will switch off
for about 1 s and then switch on again.
If the control lamp is flashing, there is a fault in the disabling of the airbag
system ⇒
. Please go immediately to an Official Service.

Instruments and warning/control lamps
Trip recorder
Fig. 40 Instrument pan-
el: Odometer and reset
button
The distance covered is displayed in “kilometres” or miles “m”. It is possi-
ble to change the measurement units (kilometres “km”/miles “m”) in the
radio/Easy Connect*. Please refer to the Easy Connect* Instruction Manual
for more details.
Odometer/trip recorder
The odometer shows the total distance covered by the vehicle.
The trip recorder shows the distance that has been travelled since it was
last reset. It is used to measure short trips. The last digit of the trip recorder
indicates distances of 100 metres or tenths of a mile.
The trip recorder can be set to zero by pressing 0.0/SET
⇒ Fig. 40.
Fault display
If there is a fault in the instrument panel, the letters DEF will appear in the
trip recorder display. Have the fault repaired immediately, as far as is possi-
ble. Fuel level
The display
6 ⇒ Fig. 38 only works when the ignition is switched on. When
the display reaches the reserve mark, the lower diode lights up in red and
the control lamp appears ⇒ page 248. When the fuel level is very low,
the lower diode flashes in red.
The distance to empty fuel level is displayed on the instrument panel 3
⇒ Fig. 38.
The capacity of the fuel tank of your vehicle is given in the Technical data
section ⇒ page 323.
In natural gas engines
The yellow warning lamp
lights up when both fuel types (petrol and natu-
ral gas) have reached reserve level.
The green control lamp comes on when the vehicle is working with natural
gas.
The green control lamp switches off when the natural gas is exhausted.
The engine changes to operate with petrol.
Thing to note: If the vehicle is left parked for a long time immediately after
refuelling, the natural gas level indicator may not accurately indicate the
same level shown after refuelling when the vehicle is started up again. This
is not due to a leak in the system, but to a drop in pressure in the gas tank
for technical reasons after a cooling phase immediately after refuelling.
CAUTION
Never run the fuel tank completely dry. An irregular fuel supply could cause
misfiring. In this way the unburned fuel can reach the exhaust system,
which could cause the catalytic converter to overheat resulting in damage.

Coolant temperature gauge
For vehicles with no coolant temperature gauge, a control lamp appears for
high coolant temperatures ⇒ page 257. Take into account the ⇒ .
The coolant temperature gauge 2
⇒ Fig. 38 only works when the ignition is
switched on. In order to avoid engine damage, please read the following
notes for the different temperature ranges.
Engine cold
If only the diodes in the lower part of the scale light up, this indicates that
the engine has not yet reached operating temperature. Avoid high revs and
heavy acceleration and do not make the engine work hard.
Normal temperature
If in normal operations, the diodes light up until the central zone, it means
that the engine has reached operating temperature. At high outside temper-
atures and when making the engine work hard, the diodes may continue
lighting up and reach the upper zone. This is no cause for concern, provided
the control lamp does not light up on the instrument panel digital dis-
play.
Heat range
When the diodes light up in the upper area of the display and the control
lamp appears on the instrument panel display, the coolant temperature
is excessive ⇒ page 257.
CAUTION
● To ensure a long useful life for the engine, avoid high revs, driving at
high speed and making the engine work hard for approx. the first 15 mi-
nutes when the engine is cold. The phase until the engine is warm also de-
pends on the outside temperature. If necessary, use the engine oil tempera-
ture* as a guide ⇒ page 77
● Additional lights and other 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.
● The front spoiler also ensures proper distribution of the cooling air when
the vehicle is moving. If the spoiler is damaged this can reduce the cooling
effect, which could cause the engine to overheat. Seek specialist assis-
tance.
