RangeThe estimated range in kilometres is shown on the display. It indicates the distance you
can still drive with your vehi cle based on the present level of fuel in the tank for the
same style of driving.
The readout is shown in steps of 10 km. After lighting up of the indicator light for the
fuel reserve the display is shown in steps of 5 km.
The fuel consumption for the last 50 km is taken 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.
If the memory is set to zero (after disconnecting the battery), th e fuel consumption of
10 ltr./100 km is calculated for the range; afterwards the value is adapted accordingly
to the style of driving.Distance drivenThe distance driven since the memory was last erased appears in the display
page 19. If you wish to measure the distance driven of a particular time, you must
set the memory to zero at this moment in time by pressing the button page 20,
fig. 19 on the windshield wiper lever or the handwheel on the multifunction
steering wheel* page 20, fig. 19 .
The maximum distance indicated in both memo ries is 1 999 km or on vehicles with
information display*, it 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 vehicle speed over a certain
period of time, you must set the memory to zero at the start of the measurement using
the button page 20, fig. 19 on the windshield wiper lever or with the handwheel
on the multifunction steering wheel* page 20, fig. 19 .
A zero appears in the display for the first 100 m you drive after erasing the memory.
The indicated value will be updated every 5 seconds while you are driving.
Current speed*The current speed which is identical to the display of the speedometer page 15,
fig. 15 is indicated on the display.oil temperature*The oil temperature appears in the display when the ignition is switched on. If the oil
temperature is lower than 50°C or if a fault in the system for checking the oil tempera-
ture is present, three lines are displayed instead of the oil temperature.Warning against excessive speedsWarning against excessive speeds
This function enables you to set a speed limit, e.g. if you drive in town. A text in the
display is intended to draw your attention to the fact that you have exceeded the set
speed limit.
You can set the desired speed limit as follows:
Select the menu point Speed warning --- km/h (warning at --- km/h). .
Drive e.°g at a speed of 50 km/h.
Press the button page 20, fig. 19 on the windshield wi per lever or the hand-
wheel on the multifunction steering wheel* page 20, fig. 19 . Speed warning
50 km/h (warning at 50 km/h) is displayed in the information display*. You can
increase or reduce this value with the bu tton on the windshield wiper lever or by
turning the handwheel on the multifunction steering wheel*.
The value is stored by repeated pressing of the button on the windshield wiper
lever or the handwheel on the multifunction steering wheel*.
If you now exceed the set speed limit, Speed 50 km/h exceeded will be shown in the
display. This message is indicated for as long as the speed is reduced below the set
limit or switch off the message by pressing the button on the windshield wiper lever
page 20, fig. 19 or the handwheel on the multifunction stee ring wheel*
page 20, fig. 19 .

The turn signal lights flash twice as confir mation that the vehicle has been unlocked.
The vehicle will lock again automatically if you unlock the vehicle using button but
do not open a door or the boot lid within th e next 30 seconds. This function is intended
to prevent the car being unlocked unintentionally.
In addition, when the car is unlocked, the electrically adjustable seats and exterior
mirrors* move into the position assigned to this key. The stored setting of driver seat
and exterior mirrors is retrieved.
When the vehicle is unlocked or locked, the interior lights and the lights of the entry
area are automatically switched on or off via the door contact.
Display of the locking
The turn signal lights flash once to confir m that the vehicle has been correctly locked.
If the doors or the boot lid remain open after the vehicle has been locked, the turn
signal lights do not flash unt il they have been closed.
WARNING
If the vehicle is locked from the outside and the safe securing system is acti-
vated, there must not be any person in the vehicle as it is then not possible to
open either a door or a window from the inside. The locked doors make it more
difficult for rescuers to get into th e vehicle in an emergency - hazard!
Note
Operate the radio remote control only when the doors and boot lid are closed and
you have visual cont act with the vehicle.
Once in the car, you must not press the lock button
of the radio remote control
before inserting the key into the ignition lock in order to avoid the car being inadvert-
ently locked and the alarm system* being sw itched on. Should this happen, press the
unlock button
of the radio remote control.
The automatic raising of the small boot li d can be impaired at temperatures below
+4°C.
Synchronisation of the remote controlIf the vehicle cannot be unlocked by actuatin g the remote control system then it is
possible that the code in the key and the control unit in the vehicle are no longer
synchronised. This can occur when the button s on the radio-operated key are actuated
a number of times outside of the operative range of the equipment or the battery on
the remote control was replaced.
This means it is necessary to synchronise the code as follows:
Press any button on the remote control.
Pressing of the button means that the door will unlock with the key within 1 minute
page 43, “Emergency unlocking and locking of the driver's door”.
Anti-theft alarm system*DescriptionThe anti-theft alarm system increases the level of protection against people seeking to
break into the vehicle. The system triggers audible and visual warning signals if an
attempt is made to break into the vehicle.
How is the alarm system activated?
The anti-theft alarm system is activated when the vehicle is locked with the key in the
driver's door or by using the radio remote control page 43, “Emergency unlocking

– Push the main beam lever forward in the spring-tensioned position in order to switch on the main beam page 66, fig. 52 .
Switching off the main beam– If you push the lever towards the steering wheel in direction of arrow (spring-
tensioned position) page 66, fig. 52, the main beam is switched off.Switching off lights (except daylight driving lights)– Turn the light switch into position°0.
When the parking lights are switched on, the symbol
next to the light switch is illu-
minated. Low beam comes on only if the ignition is switched on. After switching off the ignition,
the low beam is switched off automatica
lly and only the side lights come on.
On models fitted with right-hand steering the position of certain switches differs
from that shown in fig. 46 . The symbols which mark the switch positions are iden-
tical, however.
WARNING
Never drive with side lights on - risk of accident! The side lights are not bright
enough to light up the road sufficiently in front of you or to be seen by other
oncoming traffic. In this case, always switch on the low beam when it is dark or
if visibility is poor.
Note
An audible warning will sound if you wi thdraw the ignition key and open the
driver's door when the vehicle lights are still on.
The acoustic warning signal is switched off over the door contact when the driver's
door is closed (ignition off). The vehicle can be parked with the side lights on.
If the car is parked for a lengthy period, we recommend switching off all lights, or
leaving only the parking lights switched on.
The switching on of the described lights should only be undertaken in accordance
with the legal requirements.
If a fault occurs in the light switch , the low beam comes on automatically
In the event of cool or humid weather conditions, the headlights can be misted up
from inside.
The temperature difference between interior and external area of the headlight
lenses is decisive.
When the driving lights are switched on, the light outlet surfaces are free from
mist after a short period. The headlight lens es can possibly mist up at the border
areas.
It also concerns reverse light and turn signal lights.
This mist has no influence on th e life of the lighting system.

sensor, the symbol illuminates additionally next to the light switch.
If the light comes on automatically, the side lights and low beam as well as licence plate
light light up at the same time.
If the automatic light control is switched on, the light is regulated with the light sensor
in the rear mirror holder. If the light intensity drops below the set value, e.g when
driving during the day into a tunnel, the low beam and the side lights as well as the
licence plate light come on automatically. If the light intensity increases again, the
lights switch off automatically.
