Charge Indicator Lamp
Engine Oil Pressure Gauge with
Oil Pressure Warning Lamp
Tachometer
Should the charge indicator lamp fail to
come on prior to starting when the key
is in steering lock position 2 or should
it fail to go out after starting or come
while the engine is running, this
indicates a fault which must be repaired
at an authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer
immediately.
Red marking on tachometer: Excessive
engine speed.
With the key in steering lock position
2, the oil pressure warning lamp comes
on and should go out when the engine
is running.
Avoid this engine speed, as it may result
in engine damage that is not covered by
the Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.
The oil pressure at idle speed may
drop if the engine is at operating
temperature. This will not jeopardize
the engine's operational reliability.
For engine protection, the fuel supply is
interrupted if the engine is operated
within the red marking.
If the charge indicator lamp comes on
while the engine is running, this may
indicate that the poly-V-belt has broken.
Should this condition occur, the poly-V-
belt must be replaced before continuing
to operate the vehicle. Otherwise, the
engine will overheat due to an
Pressure must, however, rise
immediately upon acceleration.
Note:
inoperative water pump which may
result in damage to the engine.
If the oil pressure warning lamp does
not go out after starting the engine or
comes on while driving and the oil
pressure gauge needle drops to "0",
then damage to the engine may occur
with continued operation. Turn off
engine immediately and contact an
authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer. Do
not operate the car until the condition
is repaired.
Do not continue to drive the vehicle
with the charge indicator lamp
illuminated. Doing so could result in
engine damage that is not covered by
the Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.
There is no need for concern should the
oil pressure warning lamp light up
briefly, (for example, in sharp turns or
hard braking) provided the lamp goes
out immediately. We recommend you
to drive to the nearest service station
where the engine oil should be topped
to the "full" mark on the dipstick with
an approved oil.
Parking Brake
To engage, firmly depress parking brake
pedal. When the key is in steering lock
position 2, the brake warning lamp in
the instrument cluster should come on
brightly.
To release the parking brake, pull
handle on instrument panel. The brake
warning lamp in the instrument cluster
should go out.
A warning will sound, if you start to drive
without having released the parking
brake.
