Child safety
46Securing the child seat using the “ISOFIX” and “Toptether” system or the antirotation mechanism/system
Child seats with the “ISOFIX” and “Toptether” system can be
secured quickly, easily and safely on the rear outer seats.When removing or fitting the child seat, please be sure to follow the
manufacturer's instructions.
– Move the seat as far to rear as it will go.
– Press the child seat onto the “ISOFIX” retaining rings until the
child seat can be heard to engage securely. If the child seat is
fitted with “Toptether” anchoring, connect it to the corre-
sponding ring. If the child seat is fitted with any other antirota-
tion system, follow the manufacturer instructions carefully.
– Pull on both sides of the child se at to ensure that it is secure.
Two “ISOFIX” retaining rings are fitted on each rear seat. In some vehicles, the
rings are secured to the seat frame and in others they are secured to the rear
floor. The “ISOFIX” rings can be accessed between the seat back and the seat
cushion. The “Toptether” rings are located in the rear space in the back. They
are often located on the rear of the seat backs.
Child seats with “ISOFIX” and “Topteth er” mountings are available from the
Authorised Service Centres.
WARNING
•
The retaining rings are designed only for use with “ISOFIX” and
“Toptether” systems.
•
Never secure child seats that do not have the “ISOFIX” or “Toptether”
system, retaining belts or objects to the fastening rings – this can result in
potentially fatal injuries to the child!
•
Ensure that the child seat is secu red correctly using the “ISOFIX” and
“Toptether” anchors.

Rev counter
The rev. counter displays the engine speed in revolutions per
minute.The start of the red zone on the dial ⇒ page 50, fig. 31 indicates the
maximum engine speed which may be used briefly when the engine is warm
and after it has been run-in properly. However, it is advisable to change up a
gear or move the selector lever to D (or li ft your foot off the accelerator) before
the needle reaches the red zone.
Caution
The rev counter needle must never enter the red zone on the scale. Risk of
engine damage.
For the sake of the environment
Changing up a gear early will help you to save fuel and minimise engine
noise.
Engine coolant temperature display


This gauge shows the engine coolant temperature.
Needle in cold zone
Avoid high engine speeds and heavy engine loads ⇒fig. 32.
Needle in normal zone
In normal driving conditions, the needle should be in the middle section of
the scale. The temperature may also rise when the engine is working hard,
especially at high outside temperatures. This is no cause for concern, as long
as the warning lamp does not li ght up on the instrument panel.
Needle in warning zone
The warning lamp* ⇒page 58, fig. 39 will light up and a buzzer will be
heard if the needle is in the warning zone. Stop the car and switch off the
engine. Check the coolant level ⇒ page 183 ⇒ .
Even if the coolant level is correct do not continue driving. You should obtain
technical assistance.
