Coolant temperature gauge
G WARNING
Opening the hood when the engine is over-
heated or when there is a fire in the engine
compartment could expose you to hot gases
or other service products. There is a risk of
injury.
Let an overheated engine cool down before
opening the hood. If there is a fire in the
engine compartment, keep the hood closed
and contact the fire department.
! A display message is shown if the coolant
temperature is too high.
If the coolant temperature is over 248 ‡
(120 †), do not continue driving. The engine
will otherwise be damaged.
The coolant temperature gage is in the instru-
ment cluster on the right-hand side ( Y
page 32).
The H marking in the coolant temperature gauge
corresponds to a coolant temperature of
approximately 248 ‡ (120 †).
Under normal operating conditions and at the
correct coolant level, the coolant temperature
gauge may rise to the H marking. Operating the on-board computer
