fig. 17
SPEEDOMETER
(SPEED INDICATOR) fig. 17
The indicator A shows the car speed
(speedometer).
F0G0146m fig. 18
REV COUNTER fig. 18
The indicator B shows the engine rev
number.
IMPORTANT The electronic injection
control system gradually shuts off the flow
of fuel when the engine is "over-revving"
resulting in a gradual loss of engine pow-
er.
When the engine is idling, the rev counter
may indicate a gradual or sudden higher-
ing of the speed.
This is normal as it takes place during nor-
mal operation, for example when activat-
ing the climate control system or the fan.
In particular a slow change in the speed
preserves the battery charge.
