Lubrication System
After the ignition is switched on, engine not run-
ning, the oil pressure warning lamp in the dash
panel insert must come on for about 3 s and
then go out. The check is ended if the engine is
switched on.
W
The visual oil pressure warning (oil pressure
warning lamp flashes) is switched on, and the
buzzer sounds 3 times as an audible warning, if
one of the following conditions exists:
l „Ignition on“, engine not running, oil pressure
switch closed
l Engine speed greater than 1500 rpm, oil
pressure switch opened
- At an engine speed of more than 5000
rpm, the oil pressure warning is not can-
celled, also not, if the oil pressure switch
is closed. Oil pressure warning cancelled
once engine speed drops below
5000 rpm.
¤
- If the oil pressure switch is open for only
0.5...3 s when engine speed is greater
than 1500 rpm, this is stored in the com-
bination processor of the dash panel in-
sert. If this state occurs 3 times when the
engine is running, the oil pressure warn-
ing is immediately activated and is also
not cancelled when engine speed drops
below 1500 rpm.
The oil pressure warning is cancelled if
the oil pressure switch is closed for more
than 5 s at an engine speed of more than
1500 rpm, or in the case of „Ignition off“.
