E – Fuel gauge
NOTICE
A shortage of fuel may damage the emission control
system.
e Never drive the tank dry.
e If the fuel range warning has appeared, do not
take bends at high speed.
If the vehicle's inclination changes (e.g. driving uphill
or downhill), minor deviations in the display may
occur.
Fuel reserve warning
If the fuel level falls below a model-dependent re-
maining range, a fuel range warning message is
displayed.
e Refuel at the next opportunity.
> Please refer to chapter "Refuelling" on
page 191.
Identification for location of filler flap
The arrow points towards the side of the
vehicle on which the filler flap is located.
F – Coolant temperature gauge
NOTICE
Excessively high coolant temperature can cause en-
gine damage.
If the coolant temperature is too high, the coolant
temperature gauge needle moves to the maximum
mark. A warning appears on the instrument cluster.
The warning light comes on or flashes.
e If the gauge needle is in the red area, stop im-
mediately in a suitable place and switch off the
engine. Do not continue driving.
Bar in left area – engine cold
e Avoid high engine speeds and heavy engine
loading.
Bar in centre area – normal operating temperature
e The bar may move up to the red area when the
engine is heavily loaded and outside temperature
is high.
Bar in red area – operating temperature is too high
e If the coolant level is low, warning messages may
appear if the vehicle tilts at an extreme angle (e.
g. steep slopes) or generates high lateral accel-
eration while travelling around long bends (e.g.
driving in circles). If the warning messages do
not disappear once the vehicle has assumed
"normal" operating state, check the coolant level.
> Please refer to chapter "Coolant" on page 90.
F – Boost pressure display
Depending on the vehicle equipment, the boost
pressure is shown in the display.
Warning and indicator lights
NOTICE
Faults are indicated by the warning lights. The cor-
responding warning light only goes out when the
cause of the fault has been rectified.
Consult a qualified specialist workshop in the fol-
lowing cases:
– The warning light does not come on briefly when
the ignition is switched on.
Instrument Cluster
– The warning light comes on or flashes when the
engine is running or while driving.
