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”.

Counter for distance driven
The distance which you have driven with your vehicle is shown in kilometres (km). On certain model versions, the readout is shown in “miles”.
The kilometer counter for distance driven is shown on the display when the ignition is switched off. The trip counter for dist ance driven is shown on the display after switching on the ignition. You can then swit ch over to the counter display with the reset button.
Reset button
By briefly pressing the reset button ⇒page 9, fig. 2 you can switch over from the trip counter to the kilometer counter. In order to recognize which counter for the distance driven is shown on the display at that moment, trip ⇒fig. 3appears after the trip counter.
If you hold the reset button pressed for about 1 second, the trip counter is set back to zero.
If you hold the reset button pressed for longer than 3 seconds, a display regarding the kilometers still to be driven and the days until the following service interval (for this the trip counter is not set back) appears.
Fa ult di spl a y
dEF will appear as a constant text in the display field of the counter for distance driven if there is a fault in the instrument cluster. Have the fault rectified as soon as possible by a specialist workshop.
Warning against excessive speeds*
An acoustic warning signal will sound when the vehicle speed exceeds 120 kilome- tres per hour. The acoustic warning signal will switch off again when the vehicle speed goes below this speed limit.
This function is only valid for some countries.
WARNING
Never seek to adjust the trip counter for distance driven while driving for safety reasons!
Note
On vehicles with information display bo th counters are shown simultaneously on the display.
Service Interval Display
Depending on the equipment installed in the vehicle, the text can differ slightly on the display.

Digital clock
A reset button is installed on the left below beside the speedometer for
adjusting the clock ⇒page 9, fig. 2.
Set hours
– Turn the reset button to the left.
Setting minutes
– Turn the reset button to the right.
WARNING
The clock should not be adjusted while driving for safety reasons but only when the vehicle is stationary.
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.

Outside temperature
The outside temperature appears in the display when the ignition is switched on.
The correct outside temperature will be indicated with a delay of 5 minutes. If the vehicle is stationary (or driven at a very low speed) the temperature indicated may be slightly higher than the actual outside temperature because of heat radiated by the engine.
If the outside temperature drops below +4 °C, a snow flake symbol (warning signal for ice on the road) appears with the outside temperature indicator ⇒fig. 7 and a warning signal* sounds for 10 seconds.
WARNING
Do not only rely upon the information given on the outside temperature display that there is no ice on the road. Please note that black ice may also be present on the road surface even at temperatures around +4 °C - warning, drive with care!
Note
The outside temperature is not indicating when showing navigation data (guidance to the destination). It must be called up over the menu (valid for vehicles which have a navigation and information display).
Range
The estimated range in kilometres is shown on the display. It indicates the distance you can still drive with your vehicle based on the present level of fuel in the tank for the same style of driving. The readout is shown in steps of 10 km.
The fuel consumption for the last 50 km is taken as a basis for calculating the range. If you drive in a more economical manner from this moment on, the range will be increased accordingly.
You first drive 50 km if the readout is reset (after disconnecting the battery) before a new readout for the range is displayed.
Current fuel consumption
The current fuel consumption level is shown in the display in litres/100 km. This information can help you to adapt your styl e of driving to the fuel consumption you wish to achieve.
The display appears in litres/hour if the vehicle is stationary or driving at a low speed.
Average fuel consumption
The average fuel consumption since the me mory was last erased is shown in the display in litres/100 km ⇒page 13. This information can help you to adapt your style of driving to the fuel co nsumption you wish to achieve.
If you wish to determine the average fuel consumption over a certain period of time you must first erase the memory at the start of the new measurement using the button ⇒page 14, fig. 6. A zero appears in the display for the first 300 m you drive after erasing the memory.
The indicated value will be updated every 5 seconds while you are driving.
Note
The amount of fuel consum ed will not be indicated.
