Tachometer
The tachometer displays the engine speed in
revolutions per minute .
The beginning of the red zone in the tachome­
ter indicates the maximum permiss ible en­
g ine speed for all gears once the engine has
been broken in and when it is warmed up to
operat ing temperature. You shou ld select the
"D/S" (Drive) selecto r lever pos ition or take
your foot off the accelerator peda l before
reaching th is area .
It is best to avoid high engine speeds, even
when dr iv ing in tiptron ic mode ~
