1)
. The warning symbol
in the instrument cluster lights up when the pointer reaches the reserve marking.
There are now about 10.5 litres of fuel remaining in the tank. This symbol is a re-
minder for you, that you must refuel .
The following is displayed in the information display: Please refuel!
An audible signal sounds as an additional warning signal. CAUTION
Never run the fuel tank completely empty! An irregular supply of fuel can lead to
irregular engine running. Unburnt fuel may get into the exhaust system and dam-
age the catalytic converter. Note
After filling up, it can occur that during dynamic driving (e.g. numerous curves,
braking, driving downhill and climbing a steep hill) the fuel gauge indicates ap-
prox. a fraction less. When stopping or during less dynamic driving, the correct fuel
supply quantity is indicated. This effect is not a fault.

If the outside temperature drops below +4 °C, a snow flake symbol (warning signal
for ice on the road) appears before the temperature indicator and a warning signal
sounds. After pressing the rocker switch
A at the windshield wiper lever
⇒ fig. 6
or the button C at the multifunction steering wheel
⇒ fig. 6 , the function shown
last is indicated. WARNING
Do not only rely upon the information given on the outside temperature dis-
play 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!
Driving time The driving time which has elapsed since the memory was last erased, appears in
the display. If you wish to measure the driving time as of a particular time, you
must set the memory to zero at this moment in time by pressing the button
B on
the windshield wiper lever ⇒ fig. 6
or the handwheel D on the multifunction
steering wheel ⇒ fig. 6
for longer than 1
second.
The maximum distance indicated in both memories is 19 hours and 59 minutes.
99 hours and 59 minutes in vehicles with an Information display. The indicator is
set back to null if this period is exceeded.
Current consumption The current fuel consumption level is shown in the display in litres/100 km. This
information 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.
The indicated value will be updated every 0.5 seconds while you are driving.
Average fuel consumption The average fuel consumption since the memory was last erased is shown in the
display in litres/100 km
⇒
page 14. This information can help 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 certain period of
time you must set the memory to zero at the start of the measurement using the
button
B on the windshield wiper lever
⇒
fig. 6 or with the handwheel D on the
multifunction steering wheel ⇒ fig. 6 . 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. Note
The amount of fuel consumed will not be indicated.
Range The estimated range in kilometres is shown on the display. It indicates the dis-
tance you can still drive with your vehicle 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), the fuel consump-
tion of 10 ltr./100 km is calculated for the range; afterwards the value is adapted
accordingly to the style of driving.
Distance driven The distance driven since the memory was last erased appears in the display
⇒
page 14. 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 B on
the windshield wiper lever ⇒ fig. 6 or the handwheel D on the multifunction
steering wheel ⇒ fig. 6 .
The maximum distance indicated in both memories 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. 16

● Before refuelling it is necessary to switch off the auxiliary heating system
(auxiliary heating and ventilation).
● Remove any fuel which has spilled onto the paintwork of your vehicle immedi-
ately - risk of paint damage!
● On vehicles fitted with a catalytic converter, never let the fuel tank run com-
pletely empty. An irregular supply of fuel to the engine can result in misfiring and
unburnt fuel may get into the exhaust system, which may result in overheating
and damage to the catalytic converter.
● The fuel tank is full just as soon as the pump nozzle switches off for the first
time, provided the nozzle has been operated properly. Do not continue refuelling -
otherwise the expansion volume is filled up. Note
