Rev counter
The tachometer
» Fig. 18
on page 24 shows the current engine speed per
5
minute.
The beginning of the red scale range of the tachometer indicates the maxi-
mum permitted engine speed of a driven-in and operating warm engine.
You should shift into the next highest gear before the red scale of the revolu-
tion counter is reached, or select mode D on the automatic gearbox.
The gear recommendation is important to note in order to maintain the opti-
mum engine speed

CAUTION
The rev counter pointer may only move into the red area for a short time - oth-
erwise risk of engine damage!
