The speed limit warning symbol
for speed warning 1
⇒page 82, fig. 56
will appear in the display if you exceed the pre-set speed. It goes out again if
the speed is reduced below the set speed limit.
The symbol also goes out if the speed is increased to more than about 40
km/h above the set speed for at least 10 seconds. However, this does not
cancel the speed limit that was originally set.
Setting speed limit warning 1 ⇒page 83.
Speed limit warning 2
With speed limit warning 2, the speed limit can only be changed or cleared
when the ignition is switched off. You are recommended to store this speed
limit warning if you always wish to be reminded of a particular speed limit.
This could be when driving in countries with general speed limits, or if a
particular speed should not be exceeded when winter tyres are fitted etc.
The speed limit warning symbol
for speed warning 2 will appear in the
display if you exceed the pre-set speed. Unlike speed limit warning 1, the
warning symbol only goes out once the road speed has dropped below the
set value again.
Setting speed limit warning 2 ⇒page 84.
Note
Please bear in mind that, even with the speed warning function, it is still
important to keep a eye on the car's speed with the speedometer and to
observe the legal speed limits.
Setting speed limit warning 1
Use the CHECK button to set speed limit warning 1.Setting the speed limit
– Drive at the desired maximum speed.
– Press the CHECK button and hold it down until the symbol
⇒page 82, fig. 56 appears.
Clearing the speed limit
– Drive the vehicle at a minimum of 5 km/h.
– Press the CHECK button for at least two seconds.The speed warning symbol
lights up briefly in the display when the button
is released to confirm that the selected speed has been stored. The speed
limit that has been selected remains stored until another speed is selected

On-board computerIntroduction
The on-board computer provides you with useful information
during a journey, including average and current fuel
consumption, average speed, fuel range, driving time and
distance covered.Press RESET button ⇒page 86, fig. 60 to switch back and forward
between the functions of on-board computers 1 and 2.
The numbers in the display ⇒fig. 59 indicates which of the two memories is
currently in use. The figure 1 means that the display is showing the informa-
tion in the single journey memory (on-board computer 1). The figure 2 means
that the display is showing the information in the total journey memory (on-
board computer 2). Single-journey memory (on-board computer 1)
The single-journey memory processes the information on a journey from the
time the ignition is switched on until it is switched off. If the journey is
resumed
within two hours after the ignition is switched off, the new figures
are automatically included in the calculation. If the journey is interrupted for
more than two hours t h e s t o r e d i n f o r m a t i o n i s a u t o m a t i ca l l y e r a s e d w h e n y o u
resume your journey.
Total-journey memory (on-board computer 2)
Unlike the single-journey memory, the total-journey memory is not erased
automatically. Hence, you can determine the period for which you wish the
on-board computer to supply figures.
Fuel range
The estimated fuel range is displayed in km. The fuel range is displayed in
increments of 10 km.
Average fuel consumption
This mode shows the average fuel consumption since the memory was last
cancelled in litres/100 km.
Instantaneous fuel consumption
The display shows the instantaneous fuel consumption in litres/100 km.
When the vehicle is stationary, the computer will display the last value in the
memory.
Average speed
This mode shows the average speed driven since the memory was last
cancelled (in km/h).
Driving time
This display shows the period of time which has elapsed since the memory
was last cancelled. The longest possible period it can cover is 999 hours and
59 minutes.

Tyre pressure monitoring*Introduction
The tyre pressure monitoring system constantly checks the
pressure of the tyres.The system warns the driver in the event of a loss of pressure by means of
symbols and messages in the instrument panel display. The system works
with the help of the ABS sensors in the wheels.
Please bear in mind that the tyre inflation pressure is also influenced by the
temperature of the tyre. Tyre pressure increases about 0.1 bar for each 10°C
in tyre temperature increase. The tyre heats up while the vehicle is being
driven and the tyre pressure will rise accordingly. Therefore, you should only
adjust the tyre pressures when they are
cold (i.e. approximately at ambient
temperature).
To ensure that the tyre pressure monitoring system works reliably, you should
check and, if necessary, adjust the tyre pressures at regular intervals and
store the correct pressures (reference values) in the system.
A tyre pr essure i nfor ma ti on lab e l is a tta che d to t he insi de o f the fu el ta nk f lap.
WARNING
•Never adjust tyre pressure when the tyres are hot. This may damage or
even burst the tyres. Risk of accident!•An insufficiently inflated tyre flexes a lot more at high speeds and
causes significant heating of the tyre. Under these conditions, the tyre
bead may be released or the tyre may burst. Risk of accident!For the sake of the environment
Under-inflated tyres lead to increased fuel consumption and tyre wear.
Note
•Responsibility for ensuring that the tyres are correctly inflated remains
with the driver; the system can only provide assistance.•Pressure can only be adjusted when the tyres are at ambient
temperature.

WARNING
•Always take the key with you when leaving the vehicle, even if you only
intend to be gone for a short time. This is particularly important if there are
children in the car, as they might otherwise be able to start the engine or
use power-operated equipment (e.g. the electric windows), which could
lead to injuries.•Wait for the vehicle to come to a standstill before removing the ignition
key from the lock! Otherwise, the steering lock could engage suddenly,
causing an accident.
Indicator light on the remote control key
The condition of the battery in the remote control key is moni-
tored by the indicator light.
Condition of the key battery
The indicator light ⇒fig. 68 (arrow) flashes when one of the buttons is
pressed. If the indicator light does not light up or flash, this means that the
battery is exhausted and must be replaced.
Replacing the batteries ⇒page 97.Replacing the key batteryWe recommend you have the batteries changed in a specialist
garage. If you decide to change the used battery yourself, follow the
steps below:
– Carefully prise apart the key ⇒fig. 69 and the cover
using a coin.
– Remove cover in the direction of the arrow.
