You should shift into the next highest gear before the red scale of the revolu-
tion counter is reached, or select mode D on the automatic gearbox.
The gear recommendation is important to note in order to maintain the opti-
mum engine speed » page 30.
Avoid high engine speeds during the running-in period and before the engine
has warmed up to the operating temperature.
CAUTION
The pointer of the tachometer must reach the red area for only a short time -
there is a risk of engine damage!

The driving data is displayed on the multifunction display.
The multifunction display only operates if the ignition is switched on. After the ignition is switched on, the function that was last selected before switching
off the ignition is displayed.
WARNING■ Concentrate fully at all times on your driving! As the driver you are fully
responsible for the operation of your vehicle.■
Even at temperatures of around +4 °C, black ice may still be on the road
surface! You should therefore not only rely on the outside temperature dis-
play for accurate information as to whether there is ice on the road.

31Instruments and control lights

Outside temperature
If the outside temperature drops below +4 °C, the temperature indicator ap-
pears and a snow flake symbol 
(display for low temperature) flashes for a
few seconds, then remains displayed together with the outside temperature.
Driving time
The time travelled since the memory was last erased is displayed.
The maximum time displayed is 19 hours and 59 minutes. The indicator is auto-
matically set back to zero if this value is exceeded.
Current fuel consumption
You can use this information to adapt your driving style to the desired fuel
consumption.
When the vehicle is stationary or moving slowly the fuel consumption is dis-
played in l/h (on models for some countries the following appears --,- km/l).
Average fuel consumption
The value is calculated continuously from the point the memory was last de-
leted.
After erasing the memory, no data will appear for the first 300 m driven.
Range
The detail provides information about the distance in km that can be travelled on the current tank, and with the same driving style.
If you drive more efficiently this value can increase.
Distance travelled
The distance travelled since the memory was last erased is displayed.
The maximum distance that can be displayed is 1999 km. The indicator is auto-
matically set back to zero if this value is exceeded.
Average speed
The value is calculated continuously from the point the memory was last de-
leted.
After erasing the memory, no data will appear for the first 300 m driven.
Current driving speed
The display is identical to the display on the speedometer.
Coolant temperature
If the coolant temperature is in the range 80-110 °C the engine operating tem-
perature has been reached.If the coolant temperature is below 80 °C or above 110 °C, avoid high engine
revs, full throttle and overloading the engine.
Warning against excessive speeds
Set the speed limit, for example, for the maximum permissible speed in town
» page 32 , Warning at excessive speeds .
Warning at excessive speeds
Read and observe
on page 31 first.
The system allows you to set a speed limit and when this is reached, an acous-
tic warning signal sounds. At the same time the message  (warning against
excessive speed) appears on the display with the set limit value.

›
Select and confirm the menu item  (warning when speed limit is exceeded).
›
Set the desired speed limit.
›
Confirm the set value, or wait several seconds; your settings will be saved
automatically.
The speed limit can be set in 5 km/h intervals.
Adjusting the speed limit while the vehicle is moving
›
Select and confirm the menu item  (warning when speed limit is exceeded).
›
Drive at the desired speed.
›
Confirm the current speed as the speed limit.
The set speed limit can be manually adjusted later if needed.
Deactivate speed limit

example of the memory
Read and observe on page 31 first.
The following data will be saved in two memory banks 1 and 2 .
▶ Average fuel consumption.
▶ Distance driven.
▶ Average speed.
▶ Driving time.
The selected memory is displayed at position
A
» Fig. 25 .
“1” - Single-trip memory
The memory collates the driving information from the moment the ignition is
switched on until it is switched off.
New data will also flow into the calculation of the current driving information if
the trip is continued within 2 hours after switching off the ignition.
If the trip is interrupted for more than 2 hours, the memory is automatically
erased.
“2” - Long-term memory
The memory gathers driving information from any number of individual jour-
neys up to a total of 19 hours and 59 minutes driving or 1999 kilometres driven.
The memory is deleted when either of these limits is reached and the calcula-
tion starts all over again.
Unlike the single-trip memory, the total-trip memory is not deleted after a pe-
riod of interruption of driving of 2 hours.

for a few seconds after switching on the ignition or after starting the engine.
WARNING■ Ignoring light-up indicator lamps in the instrument cluster and the control
symbols in the display may cause serious injury or damage to the vehicle.■
If you have to stop for technical reasons, then park the vehicle at a safe
distance from the traffic, switch off the engine and activate the hazard
warning light system » page 49. Place the warning triangle at the prescri-
bed distance.

Unlocking / locking » Fig. 29
Locking
Unlocking
The central locking system also operates if the ignition is switched off.
The following applies after locking. ▶ Opening the doors and the boot lid from the outside is not possible.
▶ The doors can be unlocked and opened from the inside by a single pull on the
opening lever of the respective door.WARNINGDoors locked from the inside make it difficult for rescuers to get into the
vehicle in an emergency – risk to life!
Safe securing system
Read and observe
and on page 39 first.
As soon as the vehicle has been locked from the outside, the Safelock systemprevents the doors from being opened from the inside.
You will be informed that the safelock system has been activated after the ve-
hicle has been locked by means of the message 
 on the instrument
cluster display.
After locking the vehicle, the warning light in the driver's door flashes for
around 2 seconds in quick succession, afterwards it begins to flash evenly at
longer intervals.
Switching off
▶ The safelock can be switched off by locking twice within 2 seconds.
The indicator light in the driver door flashes for about 2 seconds fast, goes out
and starts to flash at longer intervals after about 30 seconds.
If the vehicle is locked and the safe securing system is switched off, the door
can be opened separately from the inside by a single pull on opening lever.
The Safelock system switches back on when the vehicle is locked.
WARNINGIf the car is locked and the safe securing system activated, no people must
remain in the car as it will then not be possible to either unlock a door or
open a window from the inside. The locked doors make it more difficult for
rescuers to get into the vehicle in an emergency – risk to life!
