Fuel gauge
Fig. 20
Fuel gauge: in the instrument cluster / the display of the instru-
ment cluster
The display » Fig. 20 only works if the ignition is switched on.
The fuel tank has a capacity of about 55 litres.
If the fuel level reaches the reserve level A or B, the warning light illumi-
nates in the instrument cluster » page 33.WARNINGFor the vehicle systems to function correctly, and thus for safe driving,
there must be sufficient fuel in the tank. Never drain the fuel tank com-
pletely – risk of accident!
CAUTION
Never drive until the fuel tank is completely empty! Irregular supply of fuel can
cause misfiring, which can result in damage to parts of the engine and the ex-
haust system.
Note
■ After filling up, it can occur that during dynamic driving (e.g. numerous
curves, braking, driving downhill and climbing a steep hill) the fuel gauge indi-
cates a fraction less.■
The arrow
next to the symbol
within the fuel gauge displays the installa-
tion location of the fuel filler on the right side of the vehicle.
