seconds with the ignition on. The
display will flash and the value will
reset to zero.
Tachometer
Displays the engine speed.
Drive in a low engine speed range for each gear as much as possible.
Caution
If the needle is in the red warning
zone, the maximum permitted
engine speed is exceeded. Engine at risk.
Fuel gauge
Displays fuel level in the tank.
The illumination of bars corresponds
to fuel level.
When the tank is full, all bars are
illuminated, except the low fuel
warning bar (furthest to the left of the fuel gauge), which remains hollow.
When the low fuel warning bar
illuminates in the fuel gauge (i.e.
changes from hollow to solid), control
indicator Y also illuminates in lower
part of instrument cluster 3 68; fuel
level is very low: refuel immediately
3 110.
Never run the tank dry. Diesel fuel
system, bleeding 3 123.
Notice
To ensure the fuel level is displayed
correctly, the ignition must be
switched off before refuelling. Avoid
minor fuel top-ups (e.g. less than
5 litres) to ensure accurate readings.
Climate control87Auxiliary heater
Coolant heater The Eberspächer engine-
independent, fuel-powered coolant
heater provides rapid heating of the
engine coolant to enable heating of
the vehicle interior without the engine running.9 Warning
Do not operate the system when
refuelling, when dust or
combustible vapours are present
or in enclosed spaces (e.g.
garage).
Before starting or programming the
system to start, turn the vehicle's climate control system to heat and the
air distribution to V.
Switch off when not required. Heating stops automatically after the
programmed runtime. It will also
cease to operate if the vehicle fuel
level drops too low.
During operation, power from the
vehicle battery is used. The driving
time should therefore be at least as
long as the heating time. For short
journey times, check the vehicle
battery regularly and recharge if
necessary.
To ensure efficient performance,
briefly operate the auxiliary heater
once a month.
Control units
The timer or remote control unit turns the system on and off, and is used to
programme specific departure times.

The control buttons operate
identically to the timer unit described
previously.
To activate the remote control, press
activation button X and release it
when the menu bar appears in the
display. The signal indicator and
SENd appear briefly in the display,
followed by the temperature.9 Warning
When refuelling, switch off the
remote control unit as well as the
heater!
To switch off, press and hold
activation button X to prevent
inadvertent operation.
The remote control has a maximum
range of 600 metres. The range may
be reduced due to environmental
conditions and as the battery
becomes weaker.
In addition to the remote control unit,
the heating can also be switched on
for 30 minutes, or off, using the button
on the instrument panel.
Battery replacement
Replace the battery when the range
of the remote control is reduced or when the battery charge symbol
flashes.
Open the cover using a coin and
replace the battery (CR 2430 or equivalent), ensuring the new battery
is correctly installed with the positive
( < ) side facing the positive terminals.
Replace the cover securely.
Dispose of old batteries in
accordance with environmental
regulations.
Batteries do not belong in household
waste. They must be disposed of at
an appropriate recycling collection
point.

110Driving and operatingCaution
Use of fuel that does not comply toEN 228 or E DIN 51626-1 or
equivalent can lead to deposits or
engine damage and may affect
your warranty.
Caution
Use of fuel with too low an octane
rating could lead to uncontrolled combustion and engine damage.
Fuel for diesel engines
Only use diesel fuel that complies
with EN 590.
In countries outside the European
Union use Euro-Diesel fuel with a
sulphur concentration below 50 ppm.
Caution
Use of fuel that does not comply to EN 590 or similar can lead to
engine powerloss, increased wear
or engine damage and may affect
your warranty.
Do not use marine diesel oils, heating
oils, Aquazole and similar diesel-
water emulsions. Diesel fuels must
not be diluted with fuels for petrol
engines.
Refuelling
9 Danger
Before refuelling, switch off engine
and any external heaters with
combustion chambers (identified
by sticker on fuel filler flap). Switch off any mobile phones.
Follow the operating and safety
instructions of the filling station
when refuelling.
9 Danger
Fuel is flammable and explosive.
No smoking. No naked flames or
sparks.
If you can smell fuel in your
vehicle, have the cause of this
remedied immediately by a
workshop.
Caution
In case of misfuelling, do not
switch on ignition.
Notice
To ensure the fuel level is displayed
correctly, the ignition must be
switched off before refuelling. Avoid
minor fuel top-ups (e.g. less than
5 litres) to ensure accurate readings.
The fuel tank filler neck with bayonet
cap is located on the left hand side of
the vehicle.
The fuel filler flap can only be opened
if the vehicle is unlocked.
Driving and operating111
To unlock and open the fuel filler cap,insert key and turn anticlockwise.
When refuelling is complete, replace
the filler cap and turn key clockwise
as far as it will go.
Caution
Wipe off any overflowing fuel
immediately.
Fault
Should an interruption to the power supply occur, central locking will not
unlock the fuel filler flap. In such
cases release manually.
To open
■ Reposition left front seat to access the release cover.
■ Remove the release cover and position the seat belt to one side.
■ Raise fuel filler release to unlock the fuel filler flap.
To close ■ Close the fuel filler flap and lower fuel filler release to lock the fuel
filler flap.
■ Replace the release cover.
■ Reposition left front seat.
If the cause of the interruption to the
power supply is not a discharged
vehicle battery, consult a workshop.
