Airbag system
Control lamp for airbag and seat belt tensioner 
This control lamp monitors the airbag and seat belt tension-
er system.
The control lamp monitors all airbags and seat belt tensioners in the vehi-
cle, including control units and wiring connections.
Monitoring of airbag and belt tensioner system
Both the airbag and belt tensioner systems operation is constantly moni-
tored electronically. Each time the ignition is switched on, the control lamp
 lights for several seconds and the instrument panel display* shows AIR-
BAG/TENSIONER.
The system must be checked when the control lamp  :
● does not light up when the ignition is switched on
● turns off after 4 seconds after the ignition is switched on
● turns off and then lights up again after the ignition is switched on
● lights up or flashes while the vehicle is moving
In the event of a malfunction, the warning lamp remains on continuously. In
addition, depending on the malfunction, a fault message appears in the in-
strument panel display for approx. 10 seconds and a short audible warning
is given. In this event, you should have a specialised workshop check the
system immediately.
If any of the airbags are disabled by a Technical Service, the warning lamp
lights for several seconds more after the verification and will turn off if there
is no fault.WARNING
● If there is a malfunction, the airbag and belt tensioner system cannot
properly perform its protective function.
● If a malfunction occurred, have the system checked immediately by a
specialised workshop. Otherwise, in the event of an accident, the airbag
system and belt tensioners may not be triggered, or may not be triggered
correctly.

Repairs, maintenance and disposal of airbags
The parts of the airbag system are installed in various places in your vehi-
cle. If work is carried out on the airbag system or parts have to be removed
and fitted on the system when performing other repair work, parts of the air-
bag system may be damaged. In the event of an accident this could cause
the airbag to inflate incorrectly or not inflate at all.
The relevant safety requirements must be observed when the vehicle or
components of the airbag are scrapped. Specialised workshops and vehicle
disposal centres are familiar with these requirements.
WARNING
● If repairs are not carried out by a professional, or if the airbags are
used incorrectly, the risk of severe or fatal injuries is increased. The air-
bags may fail to inflate, or could inflate in the wrong circumstances.
● Do not cover or stick anything on the steering wheel hub or the sur-
face of the airbag unit on the passenger side of the dash panel, and do
not obstruct or modify them in any way.
● It is important not to attach any objects such as cup holders or tele-
phone mountings to the surfaces covering the airbag units. 

WARNING
● Always keep your attention on driving! As the driver, you have the full
responsibility for the safety of traffic.
● Never use the instrument panel controls when the vehicle is in mo-
tion. Do so only when the vehicle is stopped!

Rev counter
The red part of the rev counter scale 1 ⇒ Fig. 31 ⇒ 
page 57 marks the zone
where the engine control unit begins to limit the engine speed. The engine
control unit is responsible for reducing the revs to a safe limit.
Before the needle reaches the red zone change up into a higher gear, or
move the selector lever of the automatic gearbox to D.
In order to drive at an optimum RPM, respect the gear change indications

For the sake of the environment
Changing to higher gears in advance helps to reduce fuel consumption and
noise levels, helps to protect the environment and benefits both the useful
life and the reliability of the engine. 
Speedometer
Speed warning
An audible warning will be heard on exceeding 120 km/h (75 mph). If the
speed falls below this limit, the audible warning switches off.
Note
This function is only valid for certain countries. 
Coolant temperature gauge
The coolant temperature gauge 4
⇒  Fig. 31
⇒ page 57 only works when
the ignition is switched on.
Damage to the engine can be avoided by observing the indications regard-
ing the temperature zones.
Engine cold
If the needle is still on the left of the scale, the engine has not yet reached
operating temperature. Avoid high engine speeds, hard acceleration and
submitting the engine to high loads.
Operating temperature zone
When the needle has reached the central part of the scale, this means the
engine has reached operating temperature. Running the engine at full throt- tle and the high temperatures involved can cause the needle to be posi-
tioned in the zone on the right.
CAUTION
The additional headlights and other parts placed in front of the fresh air in-
lets reduce the effect of engine cooling. With high outside temperatures
and engine speeds a risk becomes present of the engine overheating
⇒  page 72, Coolant level and temperature . 
Fuel gauge
The fuel gauge 7 ⇒ Fig. 31 ⇒ 
page 57 operates only when the ignition is
switched on.
The fuel tank has a capacity of approx. 55 litres. When the needle reaches
the reserve area, the warning symbol  ⇒ page 75 lights up on the gener-
al instrument panel and an audible warning can be heard.
CAUTION
Never completely empty the tank! An irregularity in the fuel supply system
can cause irregularities when the engine is running. Unburned fuel can
reach the exhaust gas system, which can cause deterioration of the catalytic
converter.
Note
Some vehicles come fitted with the fuel gauge on the general instrument
panel. 

ond speed in mph or in kph are activated respectively, this speed will be
displayed in place of the odometer. 
Service interval display*
Service interval display
Before reaching the service interval, when the ignition is switched on the
key symbol  appears on the screen for several seconds together with the
indication of the number of kilometres (miles) remaining. The number of
days remaining until the service inspection is indicated simultaneously.
The informative display indicates:
Service in … km (miles) or… days. The indication of kilometres (miles) or time remaining until the inspection
reduces in intervals of 100km (miles) or 1 day.
If the service interval is reached, when the ignition is switched on the key
symbol
 appears flashing on the screen together with the word Service.
The informative display indicates: Service now!
Indication of number of kilometres (miles) or time remaining until the
service inspection
The number of kilometres (miles) or time remaining until the service inspec-
tion can always be displayed when the ignition is switched on by pressing
the button 5
⇒ Fig. 31 ⇒ 
page 57.
The key symbol  and indication of the number of kilometres (miles) re-
maining appear on the display for several seconds. The number of days re-
maining until the service inspection is indicated simultaneously.
In vehicles equipped with an informative display this information can be ac-
cessed from the menu, Settings ⇒ page 67.
Resetting service interval display
The service interval display can be reset only after a service message or pre-
warning has been displayed in the general instrument panel display.
It is advisable to visit a Technical Service to reset the display.
The specialised Technical Service:
● resets the display memory after performing the following inspection
● stores the information in the Maintenance Programme
● places a sticker on the side of the instrument panel in the driver area in-
dicating the date of the next inspection
The service intervals display can be reset by pressing the button, 6
