Outside Temperature Indicator
Tachometer
Warning!
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.).
Red marking on tachometer:
Excessive engine speed.
Avoid this engine speed, as it may
result in engine damage that is not
covered by the Mercedes-Benz Limited
Warranty.
•
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.
For engine protection, the fuel supply
is interrupted if the engine is operated
within the red marking.
•
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.
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.
Coolant Temperature Gauge
If the antifreeze mixture is effective to -
30°C (- 22°F), the boiling point of the
coolant in the pressurized cooling
system of your vehicle is approx. 130°C
(266 °F).
Turn off the engine, get out of the
car and do not stand near the car
until it cools down.
Warning!
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.
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.
The engine should not be operated with
the coolant temperature in the red zone.
Doing so may cause serious engine
damage which is not covered by the
Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.

Automotive readers have rated 1998 Mercedes-Benz S320 S420 S500 W140 Owners Manual 3.8 out of 5.0 based on 5 product reviews. This sight is a piece of shit. It keeps asking me for information with no results.
I'm about to try and download manual. If it works, I think it's a great thing.
