REV COUNTER

The danger zone (red, or white on certain
versions) indicates excessively high engine
speed. Do not drive for long periods with the
pointer in this area.
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 power.
When the engine is idling, the rev counter
may indicate a gradual or sudden highering of
the speed, this is normal as it takes place dur-
ing normal operation, for example when en-
gaging the climate control system or the fan.
In particular a slow change in the speed pre-
serves the battery charge.
