Multifunction display
The following displays and indicators
appear in the multifunction display:

No messages will be displayed if either the
instrument cluster or the multifunction
display is inoperative.
As a result, you will not be able to see
information about your driving
conditions, such as speed, outside
temperature, or warning/indicator lamps.
Driving characteristics may be impaired.
If you must continue to drive, please do so
with added caution. Visit an authorized
smart center as soon as possible.
Multifunction display illumination
The multifunction display illumination
comes on when the starter switch is in
position 1. It goes out after approximately
30 seconds when the starter switch is in
position 0.

Freeze warning (Canada vehicles only)
When the outside temperature falls below
3 ¥ , the multifunction display makes you
aware of the fact that the road may be icy.
An additional freeze warning, i.e. an ice
crystal symbol, in the multifunction
display flashes. After 60 seconds, the
freeze warning stops flashing but
continues to be displayed. When the
outside temperature rises above 3 ¥, the
freeze warning goes out.
Fuel level display
Example illustration (U.S. vehicles)
The fuel level display shows the tank’s fuel
level with the aid of eight segments. The
number of dark segments indicates the fuel
level in the tank. If all eight segments are
dark, the tank is full.
You are driving on reserve fuel if there are
no more than 1.0 US gal (3.78 l) of fuel in the
tank.
If this occurs,
R the fuel pump symbol in the fuel level
display flashes
R the reserve fuel indicator shows the fuel
level in the tank in 0.1 US gal (0.5 l)
increments
For selecting the reserve fuel indicator to
be displayed in the status indicator, see
“Reserve fuel indicator” ( Y page 92).
Selecting display for status indicator
You can select the information to be
displayed in the status indicator:
R Trip odometer display ( Y page 91)

Reserve fuel indicator
Example illustration (U.S. vehicles)
The reserve fuel indicator is only
displayed when driving on reserve fuel.
XSelecting reserve fuel indicator: Press
button \000F on the instrument cluster
repeatedly until the reserve fuel
indicator appears in the status
indicator.
Auxiliary instruments*
\000FTachometer\000GCockpit clock
Tachometer*
The tachometer displays the engine speed
in units of 1 000 rpm.
The tachometer can be turned by
approximately 90°.
The tachometer illumination comes on when
you switch on the ignition and the exterior
lighting.
! Do not hang any objects on the
tachometer.
This could cause the tachometer to be
torn from its mountings and damage it.
Cockpit clock*
The cockpit clock can be turned by
approximately 90°.
The cockpit clock illumination comes on
when you switch on the ignition and the
exterior lighting.
The buttons for setting the time are on the
top of the cockpit clock.
XSetting the time back in 1 minute
increments: Press button \000F repeatedly
until the desired time is set.
XSetting the time back quickly: Press
button \000F for longer than two seconds.
The setting speed accelerates.
XSetting the time forward in 1 minute
increments: Press button \000G repeatedly
until the desired time is set.
XSetting the time forward quickly: Press
button \000G for longer than two seconds.

Check Tire PressureThe tire inflation pressure in at least one tire is
significantly below the reference value.XCarefully bring the vehicle to a halt, avoiding abrupt
steering and braking maneuvers.XCheck and adjust tire inflation pressure as required
( Y page 128).XIf necessary, change the wheel ( Y page 193).GWarning!
Each tire should be checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure
recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the Tire and Loading Information placard. If
your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the Tire and Loading
Information placard, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those
tires.
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring
system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires
is significantly underinflated.
Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check your
tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly
underinflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure.
Underinflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s
handling and stopping ability. Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire
maintenance, and it is the driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even
if underinflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire
pressure telltale.

Engine oils are specifically tested for
their suitability in our engines and
durability for our service intervals.
Therefore, only use engine oils and oil
filters required for vehicles with the
Maintenance System. For a listing of
approved engine oils and oil filters
contact an authorized smart center.
! Using engine oils and oil filters of
specification other than those expressly
required for the Maintenance System, or
changing of oil and oil filter at change
intervals longer than those called for by
the Maintenance System will result in
engine or emission control system
damage not covered by the smart Limited
Warranty.Please follow Maintenance System
recommendations for scheduled oil
changes. Failure to do so will result in
engine or emission control system
damage not covered by the smart Limited
Warranty.
Viscosity grades for engine oils
Using the chart below, select oil viscosity
according to the lowest air temperature
expected before the next oil change.
27 Use a windshield washer concentrate labeled for summer and water for temperatures above freezing
point or a windshield washer concentrate labeled for winter and water for temperatures below freezing
point.220Service fluids and capacities>> Technical data.* optionalBA 451 USA, CA Edition A 2011; 1; 4, en-UShereepeVersion: 3.0.3.62010-05-11T15:12:26+02:00 - Seite 220
