Important safety notes

G

WARNING

If you operate information systems and

communication equipment integrated in the

vehicle while driving, you will be distracted

from traffic conditions. You could also lose

control of the vehicle. There is a risk of an

accident.

Only operate the equipment when the traffic

situation permits. If you are not sure that this

is possible, park the vehicle paying attention

to traffic conditions and operate the

equipment when the vehicle is stationary.

G

WARNING

If the instrument cluster has failed or

malfunctioned, you may not recognize

function restrictions in systems relevant to

safety. The operating safety of your vehicle

may be impaired. There is a risk of an

accident.

Drive on carefully. Have the vehicle checked

at a qualified specialist workshop

immediately.

You must observe the legal requirements for

the country in which you are currently driving

when operating the on-board computer.

The on-board computer only shows messages

or warnings from certain systems in the

multifunction display. You should therefore

make sure your vehicle is operating safely at

all times. Otherwise, a vehicle that is not

operating safely may cause an accident.

Hybrid vehicles: Always read the HYBRID

operating instructions. You could otherwise

fail to recognize dangers, e.g. due to high-

voltage.

For an overview, see the instrument panel

illustration (Y page 31).

WARNING

Opening the hood when the engine is

overheated or when there is a fire in the

engine compartment could expose you to hot

gases or other service products. There is a

risk of injury.

Let an overheated engine cool down before

opening the hood. If there is a fire in the

engine compartment, keep the hood closed

and contact the fire department.

!

A display message is shown if the coolant

temperature is too high.

If the coolant temperature is over

248 ‡(120 †), do not continue driving. The

engine will otherwise be damaged.

The coolant temperature gauge is in the

instrument cluster on the left-hand side

(Y page 31).

Under normal operating conditions and with

the specified coolant level, the coolant

temperature may rise to 248 ‡ (120 †).

Tachometer

!

Do not drive in the overrevving range, as

this could damage the engine.

The red band in the tachometer indicates the

engine's overrevving range.
