Rev counter
The rev counter displays the engine speed in revolutions per
minute.
The start of the red zone ⇒ Fig. 30 1
indicates the maximum engine speed
operating at service temperature. However, it is advisable to change up into
a higher gear, move the selector lever to D or lift your foot off the accelerator
before the needle reaches the red zone.
CAUTION
To prevent possible engine malfunctions, the rev counter needle should not
reach the red zone. The start of the red zone on the dial is different for some
engine versions.
For the sake of the environment
Changing up into higher gears sooner, following the recommended gear in-
dications ⇒ Fig. 33 will help you to reduce fuel consumption, emissions and
also engine noise. 
