Layout of this Owner's Manual (explanations)
6
Layout of this Owner's Manual (explanations)The Owner's Manual has been systematically designed, in order to make it easy for you
to find and absorb the information you require.Chapters, table of contents and subject indexThe text of the Owner's manual is divided into relatively short sections which are
combined into easy-to-read chapters. The chapter you are reading at any particular
moment is highlighted at the bottom right of the page.
The Table of contents is arranged according to the chapters and the detailed Subject
index at the end of the Owner's Manual helps you to rapidly find the information you
are looking for.SectionsThe majority of Sections apply to all models.
Since there is a wide range of different equipment and options available it is clearly
unavoidable, despite dividing the contents into sections, that mention may be made
of equipment whic h is not fitted to your vehicle.Brief information and instructionsEach section has a Heading.
This is followed by Brief information (in large italic lettering), which tells you the
subject which is dealt with in this section.
Most of the illustrations are accompanied by an Instruction (in relatively large letters)
which explains to you in a straightforw ard way the action you have to take. Work steps
which have to be carried out are illustrated with a hyphen.Direction indicationsAll direction indications such as “left”, “right”, “front”, “rear” relate to the direction of
travel of the vehicle.Explanation of symbols* Equipment which is marked in such a way is only standard on certain vehicle model
versions or only suppliable as opti onal equipment for certain models. End of a section.
 The section is continued on the next page.NotesAll four kinds of notes, which are used in th e text, are always stated at the end of the
respective section.
WARNING
The most important notes are marked with the heading WARNING. These
WARNING notes draw your attention to a serious risk of accident or injury.
While reading the text you will frequent ly encounter a double arrow followed
by a small warning symbol. This symbol is intended to draw your attention to a
WARNING note at the end of the section to which you must pay careful atten-
tion.
Caution
A Caution note draws your attention to the possib ility of damage to your vehicle (e.g.
damage to gearbox), or points ou t general risks of an accident.
For the sake of the environment
An Environmental note draws your attention to environmental protection aspects.
This is where you will, for example, find tips aimed at reducing your fuel consumption.
Note
A normal Note draws your attention in a general way to important information.

Engine revolutions counterThe start of the red zone in the revolutions counter fig. 18 indicates the
maximum permissible engine speed for all ge ars for an engine which has been run in and operating at a normal temperature. Before
reaching this zone shift up into the next
higher gear.
One should shift to a lower gear at the late st when the engine is no longer running
“smoothly”.
Avoid high engine speeds wh en running-in the vehicle page 128.
For the sake of the environment
Shifting up early helps you save fuel and reduce the operating noise of your vehicle.Coolant temperature gaugeThe coolant temperature gauge fig. 18 operates only when the ignition is
switched on.
In order to avoid any damage to the engine, please pay attention to the following notes

Technical Data
Cold range
If the pointer is in the left-hand area of the scale it means that the engine has not yet
reached its operating temperature. Avoid running at high engine speeds, at full throttle
and at severe engine loads.
The operating range
The engine has reached its operating temper
ature as soon as the pointer moves into
the mid-range of the scale. The pointer may also move further to the right at high
engine loads and high outside temperatures. This is not critical provided the warning
symbol
 in the instrument cluster does not flash.
If the symbol  in the instrument cluster flashes it means that either the coolant
temperature is too high or the coolant level is too low. Observe the guidelines
 page 28, “Coolant temperature/coolant level ”.
WARNING
Pay attention to the warning notes page 148, “Working in the engine
compartment” before opening the bonnet and inspecting the coolant level.
Caution
Additional headlights and other attached co mponents in front of the fresh air inlet
impair the cooling efficiency of the coolant. There is then a risk of the engine over-
heating at high outside temper atures and high engine loads!Fuel gaugeThe fuel gauge page 16, fig. 18 only operates when the ignition is switched on.
The fuel tank has a capacity of about 55 litres. The warning symbol
 in the instrument
cluster lights up when the pointer reaches the reserve marking. There are now about 7
litres of fuel remaining in the tank. This symbol is a reminder for you, that you must
refuel .
The following will be displayed in the information display*: PLEASE REFUEL
A peep sounds as an additional warning signal.
Caution
Never run the fuel tank completely empty! An irregular fuel supply can result in poor
ignition or misfiring. Unburnt fuel may get into the exhaust system and damage the
catalytic converter.SpeedometerWarning against excessive speeds*
An acoustic warning signal will sound when the vehicle speed exceeds 120 kilometres
per hour. The acoustic warning signal will switch off again when the vehicle speed goes
below this speed limit.
Note
This function is only valid for some countries.Counter for distance drivenThe distance which you have driven with your vehicle is shown in kilometres (km). On
certain model versions, the readout is shown in “miles”.


Press the reset button with the ignition switched off and and hold it down.

Switch the ignition on, release the reset button. The text Service or SERVICE NOW
appears in the display.

Turn the button for setting the clock to the right - as a result of this the display is
reset.Caution
We recommend that you do not reset the Se rvice Interval Display yourself otherwise
this can result in the service interval display being incorrectly set, which may also result
in problems with operation of your vehicle.
Note

Never reset the display between service intervals otherwise this may result in
incorrect readouts.

information is retained in the Service Interval Display also after the battery of the
vehicle is disconnected.

It is necessary to re-code the Service Interval Display if a new instrument cluster is
installed during repair work. This work is carried out by a specialist garage.

The data displayed is the same after resetting the display with flexible service inter-
vals (QG1) using the reset button as that for a vehicle with fixed service intervals (QG2).
We therefore recommend having the Service In terval Display reset only by a specialist
garage which is familiar with the procedure for resetting the display with a vehicle
system tester.

The data of the single-trip memory (memory 1) is shown if a 1 appears in the display.
A 2 shown in the display means that data relates to the total distance memory
(memory 2).
Switching over the memory takes place with the button fig. 21 .
Single-trip memory (memory 1)
The single-trip memory collates the driving information from the moment the ignition
is switched on until it is switched off. New data will also flow into the calculation of the
current driving information if the trip is continued within 2 hours after switching off
the ignition. The memory will be is automatically erased, on the other hand, if the trip
is interrupted for more than 2 hours .
Total-trip memory (memory 2)
The total distance driven memory gathers data from any number of individual jour-
neys up to a total of 99 hours and 59 minut es driving or 9.999 kilometres driven. The
memory is deleted when either of these li mits is reached and the calculation starts
from anew.
The total-trip memory will not, contrary to the single-trip memory, be deleted after a
period of interr uption of driving of 2 hours.
Note
All information in the memory is erased if the battery of the vehicle is disconnected.Using the system
The rocker switch and the button are located on the windshield wiper lever
fig. 21 .Selecting the memory– Repeated short-term pressing of the button allows to select the desired
memory.Selecting the functions– Press the rocker switch up or down. Th is will cause the individual functions of
the multi-functional indicator to appear in the display one after the other.Setting function to zero– Select the memory you want.
– Press button for more than 1 second.
The following readouts of the selected me mory will be set to zero by button :
average fuel consumption,



average speed,

Driving time.
You can only operate the multi-functional in dicator when the ignition is switched on.
After the ignition is switched on, the function displayed is the one which you last
selected before switch ing off the ignition.
If the outside temperature drops below +4 °C, the outside temperature indicator with
a snow flake symbol appears. The symbol warns the driver of the possible danger of
ice on the road. After the rocker switch is pressed, the function displays the one
which you last selected before switching off the ignition.
Outside temperatureThe outside temperature appears in the display when the ignition is switched on.
The correct outside temperature will be indicated with a delay of 5 minutes. If the
vehicle is stationary (or driven at a very low speed) the temperature indicated may be

slightly higher than the actual outside te
mperature because of heat radiated by the
engine.
If the outside temperature drops below +4°C, a snow flake symbol (warning signal for
ice on the road) appears behind the temperature indicator and a warning signal
sounds.
WARNING
Do not only rely upon the information given on the outside temperature
display that there is no ice on the road. Please note that black ice may also be
present on the road surface even at temperatures around +4°C - warning, drive
with care!Current consumptionThe current fuel consumption level is shown in the display in litres/100 km. This infor-
mation can help you to adapt your style of driving to the fuel consumption you wish to
achieve.
The display appears in litres/hour if the vehicle is stationary or driving at a low speed.Average fuel consumptionThe average fuel consumption since the memory was last erased is shown in the
display in litres/100 km page 19. This information can he lp you to adapt your style
of driving to the fuel consumption you wish to achieve.
If you wish to determine the average fuel consumption over a cert ain period of time
you must first erase the memory at the start of the new measurement using the button
 page 20, fig. 21 . A zero appears in the display for the first 300 m you drive after
erasing the memory.
The indicated value will be updated every 5 seconds while you are driving.
Note
The amount of fuel consum ed will not be indicated.
RangeThe estimated range in kilometres is shown on the display. It indicates the distance you
can still drive with your vehicle based on th e present level of fuel in the tank for the
same style of driving. The readout is shown in steps of 10 km.
The fuel consumption for the last 50 km is ta ken as a basis for calculating the range. If
you drive in a more economical manner from this moment on, the range will be
increased accordingly.
You first drive 50 km if the readout is reset (after disconnecting the battery) before a
new readout for the range is displayed.Distance drivenThe distance driven since the memory was last erased appears in the display
 page 19. If you wish to calcul ate the distance driven from a particular time of day
you must first erase the memory at this moment in time by pressing the button
 page 20, fig. 21 .
The maximum distance indicated in both memories is 9 999 km. The indicator is set
back to null if this period is exceeded.Average speedThe average speed since the memory was last erased is shown in the display in
km/hour page 19. If you wish to determine the average speed over a certain period
of time you must first erase the memory at the start of the new measurement using the
button  page 20, fig. 21 .
A zero appears in the display for the first 300 m you drive after erasing the memory.
The indicated value will be updated every 5 seconds while you are driving.Driving timeThe driving time which has elapsed since the memory was last erased, appears in the
display page 19. If you wish to calculate the dr iving time from a particular time of
day you must first erase the memory at this moment in time by pressing the button
 page 20, fig. 21 .
