Avoid high engine speeds du ring the driving time and before the engine has reached
operating temperature page 118.
For the sake of the environment
Shifting up early helps you sa ve fuel and reduce the operating noise of your vehicle.SpeedometerThe speedometer shows the current speed of the car.Engine coolant temperature DisplayThe coolant temperature gauge page 15, fig. 15 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:
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 temperatur e. 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 25, “Coolant temperature/coolant level ”.
WARNING
Pay attention to the warning notes page 140, “Working in the engine
compartment” before opening the bonnet and inspecting the coolant level.
Caution
Additional headlights and other attached components in front of the fresh air inlet
impair the cooling effi ciency 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 15, fig. 15 only works 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 9
litres of fuel remaining in the tank. This symbol is a reminder for you, that you must
refuel .
An acoustic signal sounds as an additional reminder.
Caution
Never run the fuel tank completely empty! The irregular supply of the fuel system can
lead to irregular running of the engine. Un burnt fuel may get into the exhaust system
and damage the catalytic converter.Counter for distance drivenThe distance which you have driven with yo ur vehicle is shown in kilometres (km). In
some countries the measuring unit “mile” is used.
Reset button
