In some model versions or in certain countries, it is possible to
insert the ignition key and have the dash panel lights go on
without switching the engine on. This function is independent of
the vehicle's light connections.
Arrangement of instruments depends on the model and the engine
fitted.

Temperature of the engine oil*
Do not demand full performance from the engine when the engine
oil is cold. If in exceptional conditions the indicator is in the upper
area, reduce the revolutions. The needle should return to the
normal range.
If the needle remains in the upper zone, stop the vehicle and turn
the engine off. Check the oil level in the engine. If the oil level is
correct and the oil pressure pilot lamp does not switch off when
you turn the engine on, drive to the nearest Technical Service
Centre, avoiding high revolutions.
K
Revolutions counter*
On no account must the revolutions counter needle move into the
red zone of the scale.

Changing up in good time helps to save fuel and keep the noise down.
Change down a gear at the latest when the engine turn over is no
longer smooth.
Avoid high engine revolutions during the running-in period.
K
Digital clock*
To set the digital clock turn knob Alocated on the lower left next
to the rev counter.
• The hours are set by turning the button anti-clockwise until it
stops. By turning the knob once, you move forward one hour. By
turning and holding the knob, the hours move forward
continuously.
• The minutes are set by turning the button clockwise until it stops.
By turning the knob once, you move forward one minute. By
turning and holding the knob, the minutes move forward
continuously.
The knob can be used to set the clock to the exact second.
• Turn the knob to the right until the time is set to exactly one
minute before the required time.
• Turn the button to the right just as the seconds indicator of an
accurately set clock shows one full minute.
Turning the button to the left sets the clock to the required arrow.
K
Outside temperature indicator*
The outside temperature is displayed when the ignition is on.
At temperatures from +5°C to –5°C, a snowflake symbol is
displayed along with the temperature.
The snowflake symbol is to warn the driver to take extra care when
there is a risk of ice forming on the road.

If you press the upper part of the button, the different functions will
appear consecutively.
If you press the lower part of the button, the functions will appear
in the opposite direction.
The following data can be obtained in this order by the memory:
• Driving time
• Km driven
• Average speed
• Average fuel consumption
The instantaneous fuel consumption will not be memorized but will
always appear in an updated version.

The temperature range goes from –40°C to +58°C. If the car is
stationary or if driving at slow speed the indicated temperature
may be slightly higher than the real temperature due to engine
heat.
If the outside temperature is between +4°C and –7°C the ice
symbol will appear on the display (warning for icy road).
This symbol will flash at first for about 5 seconds and then remain
lit while the outside temperature is not above +4°C or below –7°C.

Instantaneous consumption is shown in l/100 km. The computer
calculates the consumption every 30 meters. When the vehicle is
stationary the computer will display the last value in the memory.
On some models, the display will show fuel consumption in
ltr/hour when the vehicle is in a stationary position with the engine
running.
If the instantaneous consumption display is selected when the
engine is started, the computer will indicate the average
consumption for the first 30 to 40 meters.
You can use this display to adjust your driving style to the desired
fuel consumption.

incorrect reading will be shown.
• If the battery is disconnected the details in the service displayare
retained.
• If the instrument panel changes due to repair, the service interval display
must be reset. This should be carried out by a Technical Service Centre.
Should the display not be reprogrammed, then the service work should be
carried out in accordance with the Inspection and Maintenance Plan and not
according to the Service Interval Display. The Service interval indicator only
becomes valid again after carrying out an inspection and resetting the
