Vehicle equipment
In this chapter, all production, country, and
optional equipment that is offered in the model
range is described. For this reason, descrip-
tions will be given of some equipment that may
not be available in a vehi
cle, for example due to
the special options or national-market version
selected. This also app lies to safety related
functions and systems.
Tachometer
If at all possible, avoid engine speeds in the yel-
low advance warning zone, arrow 1.
Absolutely avoid engine speeds in the red
warning field, arrow 2. In this range, the engine
speed is limited to protect the engine.
Engine oil temperature
When the engine is at normal operating temper-
ature, the engine oil temperature is between
approx. 210 7/100 6 and approx. 300 7/
150 6.
If the engine oil temperature is too high, a warn-
ing lamp lights up in the instrument cluster.
Fuel gauge
Fuel tank capacity: approx. 14 US gal/53 liters.
You can find information on refueling on
page 30.
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.
