Tachometer
The tachometer

» Fig. 17 on page 30 shows the actual engine speed per mi-
nute.
The beginning of the red scale range of the tachometer indicates the maxi-
mum permitted engine speed of a driven-in and operating warm engine.
You should shift into the next highest gear before the red scale of the revolu- tion counter is reached, or select mode D / S on the automatic gearbox.
The gear recommendation is important to note in order to maintain the opti-
mum engine speed » page 42.
CAUTION
The tachometer pointer may only move into the red area for a short time - oth-
erwise risk of engine damage!671)

Data overview
Overview of driving data (depending on the vehicle equipment).
Range - Drive distance in km which can be covered with the existing tank ca-
pacity and with the same driving style. If you drive more efficiently this value
can increase. With G-TEC vehicles the following details are displayed - total
range / with natural gas / petrol.
Average fuel consumption - Is calculated continuously since the last time that
the memory was erased. After erasing the memory, no data will appear for the
first 100 m driven. With G-TEC vehicles, the average consumption of fuel cur-
rently being used is displayed.
Current fuel consumption - When the vehicle is stationary or moving slowly,
the fuel consumption is displayed in l/h (in models in some countries the fol-
lowing appears --,- km/l). With G-TEC vehicles the current consumption of the
fuel currently being used is displayed ( with regards to a stationary or slow
moving vehicle, the natural gas consumption is displayed in kg/h).
Oil temperature if the temperature is lower than 50 °C or if there is a fault in
the system for checking the oil temperature, the symbols are displayed.
Warning at when the preset speed is exceeded allows the setting of a speed
limit where, if exceeded, an acoustic warning signal and a warning message
appears on the display of the instrument cluster.
Dynamic Road Sign Display - traffic signs display » page 226, Traffic sign rec-
ognition .
Current Speed - Digital speedometer.
Average speed - Value constantly recalculated, for distance since last clearing
the memory. After erasing the memory, no data will appear for the first 300 m
driven.
Distance driven - Distance driven since the memory was last cleared.
Driving time - Driving time since last clearing the memory.
Conv. consumers - information about the total consumption of the comfort
consumers in l/h and a list of three consumers (e.g. air conditioning etc.), which
have the largest share of fuel consumption.
Refill amount 1)
After the consumption of about 10 litres of fuel from the fully
refuelled tank, an amount of fuel is displayed in l. This amount can now be
safely refilled.
Natural gas quality The details of the quality of natural gas are displayed as a
percentage of between 70% to 100%. The higher the value of natural gas, the lower is the consumption.
Coolant temperature - If the coolant temperature is in the range 70-120 °C,
the engine operating temperature has been reached. If the temperature is be-
low 70 ° C, high engine speeds and straining the engine should be avoided. If the temperature is over 120°C, the warning light » page 38

Service messages
Messages before reaching the scheduled service date
Before the next service date has been reached, after switching on the ignition,
the symbol
as well as a message about the mileage or days until the next
service event appears in the display.
Messages upon reaching scheduled service date
Once the service interval is reached, the symbol
appears in the display after
the ignition is switched on, together with the message.
Resetting the service interval display
We recommend that the display reset is completed by a specialist garage.
We recommend that you do not reset the service interval display yourself. In-
correctly setting the service interval display could cause problems to the vehi-
cle.
Variable service interval
For vehicles with variable service intervals, after resetting the oil change serv-
ice display in a specialist garage, the values of the new service interval are dis-
played, which are based on the previous operating conditions of the vehicle.
These values are then continuously matched according to the actual operating
conditions of the vehicle.

The sliding/tilting roof can still be operated for approx. 10 minutes after
switching the ignition off. After opening the driver or front passenger door, it
is no longer possible to operate the sliding/tilting roof.WARNINGWhen operating the tilt/slide sunroof and the sunshade, proceed with cau-
tion to avoid causing crushing injuries – risk of injury!
CAUTION
■ During the winter it may be necessary to remove any ice and snow in the vi-
cinity of the sliding/tilting roof before opening it to prevent any damage to the
opening mechanism.■
Always close the sliding/tilting roof before disconnecting the battery.

WARNINGIf the tilting / sliding sunroof is closed, by pulling on the recess of the
switch in the direction of arrow 2, » Fig. 43 on page 62 and the closing
process is hindered by an obstacle, then at the third attempt at closing, the
force limitation will cease to function (if less than 5 s passes between the
individual attempts to close). The tilt / slide sunroof closes with full force -
this can cause injury.
Convenience operation of the sliding / tilting roof
