Vehicle equipment

optional equipment that is offered in the model

If the tilt of the vehicle varies for a longer period,
when you are driving in mountainous areas, for
example, the indicator may fluctuate slightly.
The arrow next to the gas pump symbol of the
fuel gauge points toward the side of the vehicle
with the fuel filler flap.

Reserve

Once the fuel level has fallen to the reserve zone
of approx. 2.1 US gal/8 liters the remaining LEDs
change from orange to red, arrow, and a mes-
sage is displayed briefly on the Control Display.
The tachometer

displays the remaining cruising

range. When the range is less than approx.
30 miles/50 km, the message remains in the
Control Display.

If the range displayed is less than
30 miles/50 km, be sure to refuel; other-

wise, engine functions are not guaranteed and
damage may occur.

With a dynamic driving style, e.g. rapid corner-
ing, engine functions are not always assured.

red overspeed zone of the gauge. In this range,
