Note
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.
Because of the fuel remaining in the
tank, the top-up quantity may be less
than the specified tank capacity.
Fuel economy gauge
The fuel economy gauge provides an
instantaneous calculation of fuel
efficiency based on current driving style.
The gauge uses colours to indicatecurrent fuel efficiency:Green=best fuel economy
is being achievedYellow=driving style too
aggressiveOrange=least efficient fuel
economy
The fuel economy gauge is enabled by default. It can be disabled via the
Infotainment system. Refer to
Infotainment system manual for
further information.

Temperature dependency Tyre pressure depends on the
temperature of the tyre. During
driving, tyre temperature and
pressure increase.
The tyre pressure value displayed in
the Driver Information Centre shows
the actual tyre pressure. Therefore it
is important to check tyre pressure
with cold tyres.Relearn function
After changing the wheels, TPMS
needs to recalculate.
With the vehicle stationary, select the tyre pressure menu in the Driver
Information Centre by pressing button
on end of wiper lever. Press and hold button for approx. 3 seconds to
initialise recalculation. A
corresponding message appears in

External high-power radio equipment
could disrupt the tyre pressure
monitoring system.
Each time the tyres are replaced,
TPMS sensors must be dismounted
and serviced by a workshop.
Tread depth
Check tread depth at regular
intervals.
Tyres should be replaced for safety
reasons at a tread depth of 2-3 mm
(4 mm for winter tyres).
