Fuel gauge
^u

This gauge works
when
ignition
is
switched on
but it
takes some time for
the
needle
to
reach
its
final
position.

The tank holds about
80
litres.

When
the needle reaches the start of the
re­
serve
zone
(arrow)
there is about 10 litres
(2

gallons)
of
fuel left
in the
tank. 5
-
Analog clock
To
set the
time press
the
button
on
lower
right
in
combi instrument:
•
If
pressed briefly, preferably with
a
ball
pen,
the
time
is
advanced
one
minute.
•
If
pressed continuously the minute hand goes faster and
at
the same time
the
hours
are
set as
well.

With
the button the clock can
be set
exactly to
the
second:
•
Press
button until time is one minute be­ fore time
to be set.

•
Press
button
at the
moment
when
the
seconds indicator
of an
accurate clock
shows
a
full
minute or
when
the time signal is heard
on the
radio. 5
-
Rev counter
*

The
rev
counter needle must not move into
the
red
zone
of the
scale
on any
account.
The additional
red
dotted zone before
the
red zone
on the
scale which some models

have
shows
the
maximum engine speed

permitted
briefly
e.g.
when
overtaking

when
engine
has
been run in and
is
warm
-
see page
76
also.
It is
advisable
to
change up
or
reduce engine speed
at the
latest
by

the time
the
needle reaches this
zone..

rijp
Changing
up in good time helps
<-^>
to
save
fuel and keeps the noise

down.

Change down
to
the next lower gear before
the engine
no
longer runs smoothly.
The green or green shaded area on the scale shows the speed
at
which
the
engine
is de­

veloping
its
most favourable torque
and is

working
most economically. Drive
as
often as possible with needle
in
this area.

During
the
running-in
period,
high engine

revs
should
be
avoided.
