Operation
●
Addition a
l lights and other accessories in
front of the air inlet reduce the cooling effect
of the coolant. At high outside temperatures
and high engine loads, there is a risk of the
engine overheating.
● The front spoiler also ensures proper distri-
bution of the c
ooling air when the vehicle is
moving. If the spoiler is damaged this can re-
duce the cooling effect, which could cause
the engine to overheat. Seek specialist assis-
tance. Fuel level gauge

Fig. 112 operates only
when the ignition is switched on.
The fuel tank has a capacity of approx. 55 li-
tres. When the needle reaches the reserve
area, the  ››› page 102 warning symbol illu- minates on the general instrument panel and
an audible w

arning can be heard. CAUTION
Never completely empty the tank! An irregu-
larity in the f

uel supply system can cause ir-
regularities when the engine is running. Un-
burned fuel can reach the exhaust gas sys-
tem, which can cause deterioration of the cat-
alytic converter. Note
Some vehicles come fitted with the fuel
gaug e on the g

eneral instrument panel. Control lamps

or certain func-
tion s.
Some c
ontrol and warning lamps come
on when the ignition is switched on, and
switch off when the engine starts running, or
while driving.
Depending on the model, additional text
messages may be viewed on the instrument
panel display. These may be purely informa- tive or they may be advising of the need for
action
›››

page 94.
Depending upon the equipment fitted in the
vehicle, instead of a warning lamp, some-
times a symbol may be displayed on the in-
strument panel.
When certain control and warning lamps are
lit, an audible warning is also heard. WARNING
If the warning lamps and messages are ignor-
ed, the v ehic

le may stall in traffic, or may
cause accidents and severe injuries.
● Never ignore the warning lamps or text
mess
ages.
● Stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible.
● Park the vehicle away from traffic and en-
sure th
at there are no highly flammable ma-
terials under the vehicle that could come into
contact with the exhaust system (e.g. dry
grass, fuel).
● A faulty vehicle represents a risk of acci-
dent for the driv
er and for other road users. If
necessary, switch on the hazard warning
lamps and put out the warning triangle to ad-
vise other drivers.
● Before opening the bonnet, switch off the
engine and al
low it to cool.
● In any vehicle, the engine compartment is a
hazar
dous area and could cause severe inju-
ries ››› page 203.98

Instruments and warning lamps
CAUTION
Failure to heed the control lamps and text
mes s
ages when they appear may result in
faults in the vehicle. Hand brake 
If the
 warning lamp lights up, the hand-
br ak

e is applied. Additionally, driving the ve-
hicle at speeds exceeding 6 km/h (4 mph) for
at least 3 seconds produces an audible warn-
ing.
The informative display indicates:
Release the handbrake!
Brake system  The warning lamp  i
l

ates if the brake
fluid level is too low or if there is a fault in the
ABS system.
The informative display indicates:
Brake fluid Instruction Manual!

hicle! Go to a technical service.
● A fault in the brake system or in the Anti-
lock br
ake system (ABS) can lead to longer
braking distances – Risk of accident! Fastening the seat belt
 After switching on the ignition, the warning
l
amp  i
l

luminates to instruct the driver or
front passenger to fasten their seat belt. The
warning lamp switches off when the driver or
front passenger fastens their seat belt

Go to a technical service. Have the car's elec-
trical equipment inspected. CAUTION
Additionally, if the warning lamp  lights up
whi
le driving, the warning lamp  also lights
up (cooling system fault). Stop the vehicle
and switch off the engine – Risk of engine
damage! Door open 
If the control lamp,
 lights up , one of
the
doors, the rear lid or the bonnet is open.

Operation
Preheating  (die sel
en gines)When you switch on the ignition, the warning
lamp


lights up. The engine can be started
straight away when the lamp switches off.
If the  warning lamp does not illuminate or
if it does not switch off , there is a fault in the
glow plug system.
If the warning lamp  starts to flash while
driving, there is a fault in the engine power
control electronic system. The engine control
unit allows driving to continue in an emer-
gency program.
Go to a technical service.
Engine management  (petr
ol en-
gines) If the
 warning lamp is illuminated, there is
a f au

lt in the engine management system.
The engine control unit allows driving to con-
tinue in an emergency program.
Go to a technical service.
Particulate filter  (diesel en
gines)The diesel engine particulate filter eliminates
mo
st

of the soot from the exhaust gas sys-
tem. Under normal driving conditions, the fil-
ter cleans itself. The diesel particulate filter is cleaned automatically without need for indi-
cation by

the warning lamp . This may be
noticed because the engine idle speed in-
creases and an odour may be detected.
If automatic filter purification cannot be car-
ried out (because only short trips are taken,
for example), soot will accumulate on the fil-
ter and the Diesel particulate filter warning
lamp will  switch on.
Facilitate the automatic filter cleaning proc-
ess by driving in the following manner: drive
for approximately 15 minutes at a minimum
speed of 60 km/h in 4th or 5th gear (auto-
matic gearbox: gear S). Maintain the engine
speed at approximately 2,000 rpm. The rise
in temperature causes the soot on the filter
to burn. On completion of the cleaning the
warning lamp will switch off.
If the lamp  does not turn off, or the three
lamps turn on (particulate filter , fault in
the emission control system  and glow
plugs ), drive the vehicle to a specialised
workshop and have the fault repaired at the
earliest opportunity. WARNING
● Alw a

ys drive according to the road weather
conditions, the terrain and traffic.
● The particulate filter attains very high tem-
peratur
es. Therefore, do not park the vehicle
in places where the exhaust pipe could come into contact with dry grass or with highly-
flamm
ab

le materials. Risk of fire! CAUTION
While the warning lamp  i s lit
up, the fuel
consumption is high, and in certain condi-
tions, the engine power is reduced. Note
● In order f or the p

articulate filter to burn off
soot in a correct manner, avoid carrying out
frequent short journeys.
● Using diesel fuel with a high sulphur count
can con
siderably reduce the useful life of the
particulate filter. The specialised service pro-
vides information about the countries where
fuel with a high sulphur content is used. Fuel reserve
 The  w
arning lamp illuminates when ap-
pr o

ximately only 7 litres of fuel remain in the
tank
The informative display indicates:
Refuel! Fuel range…km...(miles) Note
The message on the display switches off only
aft er r

efuelling and carrying out a short jour-
ney. 102
