-When switching the ignition on, the needles
in the instrument cluster swing upward
briefly.
- The illumination for the instrument cluster
lights up whenever you switch on the igni­
tion with the
vehicle headlights off. As the
daylight fades, the instrument cluster illu­
mination likewise dims automatically and
will go out completely when the outside
light is very low . This feature is meant to re­
mind you to switch on the headlights when
outside light conditions become poor.
8 Engine coolant temperature gauge
The engine coolant
gauge¢ page 8, fig. 3@ on ly
works when the ign ition is on . To prevent dam­
age to your engine, please note the following im­ portant points:
Engine cold
If the needle is at or close to the bottom of the
gauge, the engine has not yet reached its operat­
ing temperature. Avoid high engine speeds,
heavy engine loads, and heavy throttle applica­
tions .
Normal temperature
When the engine has reached its operating tem ­
perature, the needle will move to the middle of
the gauge and remain there. If the engine is
working hard at high outside temperatures, the
needle may move higher on the gauge . This is not
a cause for concern as long as the . warning
li ght i n the instrument cluster display does not il­
luminate . If the . warning lig ht in the instru­
ment cluster display flashes, this can mean one
of two things : either the coolant
temperature is
too high, or the coolant
level is too low

Auto Check Control
Some functions and vehicle components are
scanned for their operating status when you
switch the ignition on and while you are driving. Malfunctions or required service procedures are
signaled audibly and indicated by red and yellow
illum inated symbols and reminders in the dis­
play.
A WARNING
--
- Never rely exclus ively on the outside tem­
pe rature display to determine if a road sur­
face is icy or not. Keep in m ind that road
surfaces, especially bridges and overpasses,
could be ice covered and slippery even at an
outside temperat ure above 41 °f (+S °C).
- Always remember, even if the "snowflake"
symbol (ice warning) does not appear in the
display, black ice could be on the road.
- Always reduce your speed and dr ive with
specia l care in cold weather conditions when
the chance of encountering icy road surfaces
increases.
(j) Tips
If the vehicle is stationary, or if you are driv­
ing at a very low speed, the temperature
shown in the disp lay might be slightly higher
than the actual outside temperature. This is
caused by the heat being radiated from the
engine.

Driver information system
On-board computer
Introduction
The trip computer gives you information on cur­
rent and average fuel mileage, average speed,
fu el range and driving time.
F ig. 9 Tri p computer display: Average fu el mileage
~ 9 a: CX) m
The fo llow ing information is contin uously evalu­
ated by the trip computer and can be displayed
sequent ia lly in the instrument cluster display:
Fuel range
The estima ted cruising range i n miles (km) ap­
pea rs in the disp lay . Th is tells you how far your
veh icle w ill be able to travel on the c urrent tank
of fuel and with the same driv ing style. The dis ­
p lay changes in increments of 5 miles (10 km).
T he cruising range is calcu lated based on the fuel
consumption for the last 18 m iles (30 km). If you
drive conse rvatively, the cru is ing range will in­
crease.
Average fuel mileage
T he avera ge f uel economy in M PG (l/ 100 k m)
since you last clea red the memory a ppears in this
d isp lay . You can use this display to adj ust your
driving technique to achieve a desired mileage .
Current fuel mileage
The instant aneous f ue l cons umption in miles per
ga llon (l/100 km) is shown in this display. Yo u
can use t his disp lay to adjust yo ur driving techni ­
que to ach ieve a desired mileage .
F ue l cons umption is recalcu lated at inte rv a ls of
33 y ards ( 30 meters) . T his d isp lay sw itches to
ga llons/ho ur ( liters/hour) when the vehicle is not
mov ing.

Average speed
The average s peed in mp h (km /h) s in ce you last
rese t the memory appears in t he d isplay .
Elapsed time
The length of time that yo u have been drivi ng
s ince you la st reset t he memory appears in this
display.
Distance
The distance that has been covered since the last
time the memory was cleared appears in the dis­ play.
0) Tips
- Fuel consumptio ns (ave rage and current),
range and speed are disp layed in metric
units on Canad ian mode ls.
- All stored values will be lost if the vehicle
bat tery is discon nect ed.
Memories
The trip computer is equipped with two fully au ­
tomatic memories as well as an efficiency pro­
gram*.
Fig. 10 Trip com puter display: memory level 1
You can switch between the t rip computer 1 and
2 and the efficiency program* by pressing the

Single-trip memory (Trip computer 1)
The single-trip memo ry stores the trip informa ­
tion from the tim e the igni tion is turned on until
it is turned
off. If the tr ip is continued within 2
hours from the time the ignition was turned off,
the new data will be included in the calculation of
the current trip information.
If the trip is inter­
rupted for
more than 2 hours the memory is re­
set automat ically.
Total -trip memory (Trip computer 2)
Unlike the single-trip memory, the tota l-trip
memory is not reset automatically. This permits
you to evaluate your driving data for the entire
period between manual resets.
Efficiency program*
The efficiency program can help you to use less
fuel¢

Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) ¢4 in the
instrument cluster is part of the On-Board Diag­

The warning/indicator light ill uminates when the
ignition is sw itched on and goes out after the en­
gine starts and the idle has stab ilized . This indi-
cates that the MIL is working properly . ..,.
