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.

WARNING
When working in the engine compartment, always bear in mind the safety
warnings ⇒ page 176.
Caution
Accessories in front of the air inlet reduce the cooling effect of the coolant. At
high outside temperatures and high engine loads, there is a risk of the
engine overheating.Fuel gauge
and reserve indicator
Details of the instrument panel: Fuel gauge.
The fuel tank has a capacity of approx. 45 litres. When the needle reaches the reserve zone
⇒fig. 33 the warning lamp will
light and an acoustic signal will sound reminding the driver to refuel. At this
point there are still about 7 litres of fuel in the tank.
SpeedometerThe speedometer is equipped with a digital odometer and a trip counter, in
addition to a service intervals display.
During the running-in period, the instructions shown on ⇒page 149 should
be followed.Digital display in the instrument panelDigital clock* – Turn the setting knob ⇒page 50, fig. 31 anti-clockwise to
the stop to set the hour. If the kn ob is turned briefly anti-clock-
wise the clock will advance one hour further.
– Turn the setting knob clockwise to the limit stop to set the minutes. If the knob is turned briefly clockwise the clock will
advance one minute further.

Ambient temperature display*
The outside temperature is displayed when the ignition is
switched on.At descending temperatures between +4°C down to -7°C and at ascending
temperatures from -5°C up to +6°C in addition to the outside temperature
display, an ice crystal is displayed and if vehicle speed is over 10 km/h an
acoustic buzzer is heard.
The illumination of the crystal symbol ai ms to warn the driver of the risk of
ice, so that he/she proceeds with due care.
When the vehicle is stationary or travelling at very low speeds, the tempera-
ture displayed may be slightly higher than the actual outside temperature as
a result of heat coming from the engine.
Display with multi-function display (MFD)*
The multi-function display (M FD) shows you diverse journey
and consumption data.

the existing trip recorder memory. The memory will automatically be deleted
if the journey is interrupted for more than two hours.
The total journey memory 2 collects the journey data for any number of indi-
vidual journeys (even if the ignition is switched off for longer than two hours)
up to a total of 99 hours and 59 minute s travel time, 9999 miles distance trav-
elled and 999 litres of fuel consumed. The memory will automatically be
deleted if one of the named values is reached.
