Rev counter
The tachometer
1
» Fig. 17 on page 28 shows the actual engine speed per mi-
nute.
The beginning of the tachometer red scale range indicates the maximum per-
mitted speed for an engine that has been driven-in and has reached operating
temperature.
You should shift into the next highest gear before the red scale of the revolu-
tion counter is reached, or select mode D / S on the automatic gearbox.
The gear recommendation is important to note in order to maintain the opti-
mum engine speed » page 39.
CAUTION
The rev counter pointer may only move into the red area for a short time - oth-
erwise there is a risk of engine damage!45671)
Applies to vehicles with a segment display.

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 indicates a
fraction less.
Lighting of the instrument cluster

Controller for instrument cluster
lighting
The brightness of the of the instrument cluster lighting can be adjusted indi-
vidually when the dipped beam / parking light is switched.

turn » Fig. 20 .
Note
On vehicles with MAXI DOT display, the brightness of the instrument lighting is
set automatically. A manual brightness adjustment can therefore only have a
limited effect.29Instruments and Indicator Lights

Auto Check Control
Vehicle condition
Certain functions and conditions of individual vehicle systems are checked
continuously when the ignition is switched on. If there is a system failure, the
relevant message is displayed in the MAXI DOTDisplay, in conjunction with in-
dicator lights, if necessary, indicator light illumination takes place in the instru-
ment cluster » page 31, Warning lights .
The menu item Vehicle status
is shown in the main menu of the MAXI DOT dis-
play whenever at least one fault message exists. After selecting this menu,
the first of the error messages is displayed.
Several error messages are shown on the display under the message e.g. 1/3.
This indicates that the first of a total of three error messages is being dis-
played.
