When the lights are switched on, the instrument cluster is illuminated.
The version of the instrument cluster can differ depending on the equipment.
Engine revolutions counter
The start of the red zone in the revolutions counter ⇒fig. 2 indicates the maximum permissible engine speed for all gears for an engine which has been run in and operating at a normal temperature. Yo u should shift into the next higher gear before this red zone is reached, or move the selector lever into position D if your car is fitted with an automatic gearbox.
One should shift to the next lower gear at the latest when the engine is no longer running “smoothly”.

Multi-functional indicator (onboard computer)*
Introduction
The multi-functional indicator appears in the display ⇒fig. 5 or in the information display ⇒page 16, fig. 8 depending on the equipment fitted to your vehicle.
The multi-functional indicator offers you a range of useful information.
Note
In certain national versions the displays appear in the Imperial system of measures.
Memory
The multi-functional indicator is equi pped with two automatic memories. The selected memory is displayed in the middle of the display field ⇒fig. 5.
The data of the single-trip memo ry (memory 1) is shown if a 1 appears in the display. A 2 shown in the display means that data relates to the total distance memory (memory 2).
Switching of the memory takes place when the button ⇒page 14, fig. 6.
Single-trip memory (memory 1)
The single-trip memory collates the driving information from the moment the igni- tion is switched on until it is switched of f. New data will also flow into the calcula- tion of the current driving information if the trip is continued within 2 hours after switching off the ignition. The memory will be is automatically erased, on the other hand, if the trip is interrupted for more than 2 hours.
