Drive in a low engine speed range for each gear as much as possible.
Caution
If the needle is in the red warning
zone, the maximum permitted
engine speed is exceeded. Engine at risk.
Fuel gauge
Displays the fuel level or gas content
in the tank depending on the
operation mode.
Number of LEDs displayed shows the level in the respective fuel tank. 8
LEDs means fuel tank is full.
During liquid gas operation, the level
in the gas tank is displayed.
Low fuel indication
One remaining LED illuminating white indicates that the fuel level is low.
86Instruments and controlsIf the LED changes to red and Y
illuminates yellow, refuel the tank soon.
If the LED illuminates red and Y
flashes yellow, refuel immediately.
Never run the fuel tank dry.
The arrow indicates the vehicle side
where the fuel filler flap is located.
Because of the fuel remaining in the
tank, the top-up quantity may be less
than the specified tank capacity.
During liquid gas operation, the
system automatically switches over to
petrol operation when gas tanks are
empty 3 86.
Fuel selector Pressing LPG switches between
petrol and liquid gas operation as soon as the required parameters
(coolant temperature, gas
temperature and minimum engine
speed) have been reached. The
requirements are usually fulfilled after
approx. 60 seconds (depending on
exterior temperature) and the first firmpress on the accelerator. The LED
status shows the current operating
mode.

If the fuel tank is empty, the engine
will not start.
The selected fuel mode is stored and reactivated at the next ignition cycle,
if conditions allow.
As soon as the liquid gas tank is
empty, petrol operation is
automatically engaged until the
ignition is switched off.
When switching automatically
between petrol or gas operation, a
brief delay of engine tractive power
may be noticeable.
Every six months, run the petrol tank
down until control indicator Y
illuminates, then refuel. This helps
maintain fuel quality and system
function for petrol operation.
Instruments and controls87Fill the tank completely at regular
intervals to prevent corrosion in the
tank.
Fuel for liquid gas operation 3 181.
Faults and remedies
If gas mode is not possible, check the following:
● Is there enough liquid gas present?
● Is there enough petrol present for
starting?
Due to extreme temperatures in
combination with the gas
composition, it may take slightly
longer before the system switches
from petrol to gas mode.
In extreme situations, the system may
also switch back to petrol mode if the
minimum requirements are not
fulfilled. If conditions allow, it might be possible to manually switch back to
liquid gas operation.
Seek the assistance of a workshop in
the event of all other faults.Caution
Repairs and adjustments may only be made by trained specialists in
order to maintain the safety and
warranty on the LPG system.
Liquid gas is given a particular odour
(odorised) so that any leaks can be
detected easily.
9 Warning
If you smell gas in the vehicle or in
the immediate vicinity, switch to petrol mode immediately. No
smoking. No naked flames or
ignition sources.
If the gas odour persists, do not start
the engine. Have the cause of the
fault remedied by a workshop.
When using underground car parks,
follow the instructions of the operator
and local laws.
Note
In the event of an accident, switch off
the ignition and lights.

Service display
The engine oil life system lets you
know when to change the engine oil
and filter. Based on driving
conditions, the interval at which an
engine oil and filter change will be
indicated can vary considerably.
To display the remaining engine oil
life duration use turn signal lever
buttons:
Press MENU to select the Vehicle
Information Menu ? .
Turn the adjuster wheel to select
Remaining Oil Life .
The remaining engine oil life duration
is displayed in percent in the Driver
Information Centre.
Reset Press SET/CLR on turn signal lever
for several seconds to reset. The
remaining engine oil life duration
menu must be active. Switch on
ignition, but not the engine.
The system must be reset every time
the engine oil is changed to ensure
proper functionality. Seek the
assistance of a workshop.
Next service When the system has calculated that
engine oil life has diminished, a
warning message appears in the
Driver Information Centre. Have
engine oil and filter changed by a
workshop within one week or
500 km (whichever occurs first).
