Instruments 21

Tachometer

Making use of the tachometer helps to save fuel; it indicates the engine speed.

Warning zone on right:

Maximum permissible engine speed exceeded, danger to engine.

If possible, drive in each gear in the low engine speed range (between approx. 2000 and 3000 rpm) and maintain an even vehicle speed.

Start-up limiter 3

To reduce the risk of engine damage on certain models, engine rpm will be limited when starting.

Speedometer

Indicates the vehicle speed.

Certain vehicle variants feature a speed regulator 3 1) which restricts the vehicle’s maximum speed. As a visible indication of this, a warning label is located on the instrument panel.

Vehicles with cruise control may feature a speed limiter 31) (which enables a variable maximum vehicle speed to be set) -

see page 100.

1)Depending on driving environment (e.g. when descending steep inclines), the vehicle speed can exceed set limits. In such instances, it remains the driver’s responsibility to adhere to the specific speed limits.

Fuel gauge

Display of fuel level:

Illumination of bars displays fuel level.

When the fuel gauge indicates that the fuel supply is low, low fuel level control indicator Y illuminates = fill up.

See page 90.

Never let the tank become empty!

22 Instruments

Coolant temperature gauge

Display of coolant temperature:

Bars illuminated	=	Engine operating

For physical reasons, the coolant temperature gauge shows the coolant temperature only if the coolant level is adequate.

During operation, the system is pressurized. The temperature may therefore rise to over 100 °C.
