Tachometer

The red marking on the tachometer
(

page 29) denotes excessive engine

speed.

To help protect the engine, the fuel supply
is interrupted if the engine is operated
within the red marking.

Outside temperature indicator

The outside temperature is indicated in the
multifunction display (

page 157).

!

Avoid driving at excessive engine speeds, as

it may result in serious engine damage that is not
covered by the Mercedes-Benz Limited
Warranty.

Warning!

G

The outside temperature indicator is not

designed to serve as an ice-warning device

and is therefore unsuitable for that purpose.

Indicated temperatures just above the

freezing point do not guarantee that the

road surface is free of ice. The road may still

be icy, especially in wooded areas or on

bridges.
