Technical Data
The display disappears within 20 seconds after switching on the ignition. The trip counter is also displayed af
ter pressing the reset button for the trip counter (for
more than 0.5 second). Resetting Service Interval Display It is only possible to reset the Service Interval Display, if a service message or at least a pre-warning is shown on the display of the instrument cluster. We recommend having this
resetting performed by a specialist garage.
The specialist garage:•
resets the memory of the display after the appropriate inspection;
•
makes an entry in the Service schedule;
•
affix the sticker with the entry of the following service interval to the side of the
dash panel on the driver's side. The service interval display can also be reset with the reset button as follows ⇒ page 16, fig. 18
:
•
Press the reset button with the ignition switched off and and hold it down.
•
Switch the ignition on, release the reset button. The text
Service
or SERVICE
NOW
appears in the display.
•
Turn the button for setting the clock to the right - as a result of this the display is
reset.
Caution
We recommend that you do not reset the
Service Interval Disp
lay yourself other-
wise this can result in the service interval display being incorrectly set, which may also result in problems with operation of your vehicle.
Note
•
Never reset the display between service intervals otherwise this may result in
incorrect readouts.•
information is retained in the Service Interval Display also after the battery of
the vehicle is disconnected.
•
it is necessary to re-code the Service Interval Display if a new instrument cluster
is installed during repair work. This work
is carried out by a specialist garage.
•
The data displayed is the same after rese
tting the display with flexible service
intervals (QG1) using the reset button as th
at for a vehicle with fixed service inter-
vals (QG2). We therefore recommend having the Service Interval Display reset only by a specialist garage which is familiar with the procedure for resetting the display with a vehicle system tester.•
Please refer to the brochure Service schedule for extensive information about
the service intervals.Digital clockA clock-set button is installed on the bottom left beside the speedom- eter for adjusting the clock

.
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)*IntroductionThe multi-functional indicator appears in
the display of the revolutions counter or
in the information display depending on
the equipment fitte

WARNING
•
You must not adjust the steering wh
eel when the vehicle is moving!
•
The driver must maintain a distance of at least 25 cm to the steering
wheel
⇒fig. 104
. Not maintaining this minimum distance will mean that the
airbag system will not be able to properly protect you - hazard!•
For s a fe t y re a s ons the le v e r m ust a lwa y s b e fi rm l y pus he d up t o a vo id the
steering wheel altering its position unintentionally when driving - risk of accident!•
If you adjust the steering wheel furthe
r towards the head, you will reduce
the protection offered by the driver airb
ag in the event of an accident. Check
that the steering wheel is aligned to the chest.•
When driving, hold the steering wheel
with both hands firmly on the
outer edge in the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock position. Never hold the steering wheel firmly in the 12 o'clock position or in another way (e.g. in the middle of the steering wheel or
at the inner steering wheel edge). In such cases,
injuries to the arms, the hands and
the head can occur when the driver
airbag is deployed.

•
Adjust the seat backrest so that you are able to reach the highest point of the
steering wheel with your arms at a slight angle.•
Adjust the head restraint so that the top edge of the head restraint is at the same
level as the upper part of your head
⇒page 104, fig. 112
.
•
Fasten the seat belt correctly
⇒page 110, “How are seat belts correctly
fastened?”. Manual driver seat adjustment
⇒page 60, “Adjusting the front seats”.

⇒page 61, “Adjusting front seats electrically*”.
WARNING
•
The front seats and the head restraints must always be adjusted to match
the body size of the seat occupant as well as the seat belts must always be correctly fastened in order to provide an optimal protection for you and your occupants.•
The driver must maintain a distance of at least 25 cm to the steering
wheel
⇒page 104, fig. 111
. Not maintaining this minimum distance will
mean that the airbag system will not be able to properly protect you - hazard!•
When driving, hold the steering whee
l with both hands firmly on the
outer edge in the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock position. Never hold the steering wheel firmly in the 12 o'clock position or in another way (e.g. in the middle of the steering wheel or at the inner
steering wheel edge). In such cases,
injuries to the arms, the hands and the head can occur when the driver airbag is deployed.•
The seat backrests must not be angled too far back when driving other-
wise this will affect proper operation of the seat belts and of the airbag system - risk of injury!•
Ensure that there are no objects in the footwell as any objects may get
behind the pedals during a driving or
braking manoeuvre.
You would then
no longer be able to operate the
clutch, to brake or accelerate.
Correct seated position for the front passenger The front passenger must maintain a distance of at least 25°cm from the dash panel so that the combination of the airbag and the seat belt offers the greatest possible sa
fety when an airbag is deployed.
For the safety of the front passenger and to
reduce the risk of injury in the event of
an accident, we recommend the following setting:•
Adjust the front passenger seat as far as possible to the rear.
•
Adjust the head restraint so that the top edge of the head restraint is at the same
level as the upper part of your head
⇒page 104, fig. 112
.
•
Fasten the seat belt correctly
⇒page 110, “How are seat belts correctly
fastened?”. In exceptional cases the front pass
enger airbag can be deactivated
⇒page 120,
“Deactivating an airbag”. Manual front passenger adjustment
⇒page 60, “Adjusting the front seats”.

⇒page 61, “Adjusting front seats electri-
cally*”.
WARNING
•
The front seats and the head restraints must always be adjusted to match
the body size of the seat occupant as well as the seat belts must always be correctly fastened in order to provide an optimal protection for you and your occupants.•
The front passenger must maintain a distance of at least 25 cm to the
dash panel. Not maintaining this mi
nimum distance will mean that the
airbag system will not be able to properly protect you - hazard!•
Always keep your feet in
the footwell when the vehicle is being driven -
never place your feet on the instrument panel, out of the window or on the surfaces of the seats. You will be exposed to increased risk of injury if it becomes necessary to apply the brake or in the event of an accident. If an airbag is deployed, you may suffer fata
l injuries when adopting an incorrect
seated position!
