If the tilt of the vehicle varies for a longer period,
when you are driving in mountainous areas, for
example, the indicator may fluctuate slightly.
Reserve
Once the fuel level has fallen to the reserve zone
of approx. 2.1 US gallons/8 liters the remaining
indicator lamps change from orange to red,
arrow, and a message is displayed briefly on the
Control Display. The tachometer
displays the
remaining cruising range. When the range is less
than approx. 30 miles/50 km, the message
remains in the Control Display.
If the range displayed is less than
30 miles/50 km, be sure to refuel; other-
wise, engine functions are not guaranteed and
damage could occur.<
