When the lights are switched on, the instrument cluster is illuminated.
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
regarding the temperature ranges:


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.

Please refer to the brochure Service schedule for extensive information about the
service intervals.
Digital clockA clock-set button is installed on the bottom left beside the speedometer for
adjusting the clock page 16, fig. 18.Set hours– Turn the reset button to the left.
Setting minutes– Turn the reset button to the right.
WARNING
The clock should not be adjusted while driving for safety reasons but only when
the vehicle is stationary!Multi-functional indica tor (onboard computer)*IntroductionThe multi-functional indicator appears in th e display of the revolutions counter or in
the information display depending on th e equipment fitted to your vehicle page 22,
fig. 22 .
The multi-functional indicator offers you a range of useful information.

If you do not pay attention to the warning lights coming on and the corre-
sponding descriptions and warning notes, this may result in severe body inju-
ries or major vehicle damage.

The engine compartment of your car is a hazardous area. There is a risk of
injuries, scalding, accident s and fire when working in the engine compartment,
e.g. inspecting and replenishing oil and other fluids. It is also essential to
observe all warnings page 148.
Note

Arrangement of the indicator lights depends on the model and model version. The
symbols shown in the following functional description are to be found as indicator
lights in the instrument cluster.

Operational faults are shown in the instrument cluster as red symbols (priority 1 -
danger) or yellow symbol s (priority 2 - warning).
Turn signal system

Either the left
 or right
 indicator light flashes depending on the position of the turn
signal lever.
The indicator light flashes at twice its normal rate if a turn signal light fails. This does
not apply when towing a trailer.
Switching off the hazard warning light system is switched on will cause all of the turn
signal lights as well as both indicator lights to flash.
Further information about the turn signal system page 49.
Turn signal system for vehicles towing a trailer

*
The warning light
 flashes together with the other turn signal lights only if the vehicle
is towing a trailer.
The indicator light does not flash if a turn sign al light on the trailer or on the vehicle is
not operating.

In this case have the engine inspected without delay by a specialist garage.
The following text will be displayed in the information display*:
OIL SENSOR WORKSHOP!
WARNING

If you must stop for technical reasons, then park the vehicle at a safe
distance from the traffic and switch off the engine and switch on the hazard
warning light system page 48.

The red oil pressure light

is not an oil level indicator! One should there-
fore check the oil level at regular inte rvals, preferably after every refueling
stop.
Open door*

The warning light
 comes on, if one or several doors are opened.
The warning light on vehicles fitted with information display comes on when switching
the ignition off. If a door or the boot lid is opened.
The warning light on vehicles fitted with information display goes out after switching
the ignition off.
Antilock brake system (ABS)*

The warning light
 shows the functionality of the ABS and the Electronic Differential
Lock (EDL)*.
The warning light comes on for a few seconds after the ignition has been switched on
or when starting the engine. The warning light goes out after an automatic check
sequence has been completed.
A fault in the ABS
The system is not functioning properly if the ABS warning light
 does not go out
within a few seconds after switching on the ignition, does not light up at all or lights up
while driving. The vehicle will only be br aked by the normal brake system. Visit a
specialist garage as quickly as possible and adjust your style of driving to take account of the fault in the meantime since you will no
t know the extent of the fault and in how
far the effect of the antilock brakes is affected.
Further information about ABS page 126, “Antilock brake system (ABS)*”.
A fault in the entire brake system
If the ABS warning light
 comes on together with the brake system warning light

(handbrake must be released), there is a fault not only in the ABS but also in another
part of the brake system .
Electronic Differential Lock (EDL)*
The EDL is a part of the ABS. A fault in the EDL is indicated by the lighting up of the ABS
warning light

your nearest specialist garage.
Models fitted with ESP are equipped with electronic differential lock (EDL).

WARNING

If the brake system warning light
 comes on together with the ABS
warning light
 stop the vehicle immediately an d check the brake fluid level in
the reservoir page 154, “Brake fluid”. If the fluid level has dropped below the
MIN marking, do not drive any further - risk of accident! Obtain professional
assistance.

Pay attention to the following instruct ions before checking the brake fluid
level and opening the bonnet page 148, “Working in the engine compart-
ment”.

If the brake fluid is at the correct leve l, the ABS control function has failed.
The rear wheels may then block very rapi dly when braking. In certain circum-
stances, this can result in the rear end of the car breaking away - risk of skid-
ding! Drive carefully to the nearest sp ecialist garage and have the fault
rectified.
