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
unsuitable 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.

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
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.

coolant in the pressurized cooling
system of your vehicle is approx.
130°C (266 °F).
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
thermometer 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.
