Fuel Reserve Warning Lamp
Warning!
Warning!
With the key in steering lock position
The outside temperature indicator is
not designed to serve as an Ice-
Warning Device and is therefore un-
suitable for that purpose. Indicated
temperatures just above the freezing
point do not guarantee that the road
surface is free of ice.
• Driving when your engine is badly
overheated can cause some fluids
which may have leaked into the
engine compartment to catch fire.
You could be seriously burned.
Turn off the engine and get out of
the car until it cools down.
2,
the fuel reserve warning lamps come
on and should go out when the engine
is running.
If the warning lamps do not go out after
starting the engine or if they come on
while driving, it indicates that the fuel
level is down to the reserve quantity of
approx. 3.3 gal (12.5 liters).
Coolant Temperature Gauge
• Steam from an overheated engine
can cause serious burns and can
occur just by opening the engine
hood. Stay away from the engine
if you see or hear steam coming
from it. Turn off the engine and
do not stand near the car until it
cools down.
If the antifreeze mixture is effective to
-22°F (-30°C), the boiling point of the
coolant in the pressurized cooling
system of your vehicle is approx.
266°F (130°C).
Outside Temperature Indicator
The temperature sensor is located in the
front bumper area. Due to its location,
the sensor can be affected by road or
engine heat during idling or slow
driving. This means that the accuracy
of the displayed temperature can only
be verified by comparison to a ther-
mometer placed next to the sensor, not
by comparison to external displays
(e.g. bank signs etc.).
During severe operating conditions and
stop-and-go city traffic, the coolant
temperature may rise close to the red
marking.
The engine should not be operated with
the coolant temperature in the red zone.
Adaptation to ambient temperature
takes place in steps and depends on the
prevailing driving conditions (stop-and-
go or moderate, constant driving) and
amount of temperature change.
