Operation
The fuel range is displayed on the instrument
panel.
You can consult the tank capacity of your ve-
hicle in the
section.
WARNING
When driving with low fuel, the vehicle may
stall in traffic and cause accidents and se-
vere injuries.
●
If the fuel tank level is too low, fuel could
reach the engine irregularly, particularly
when driving up or down slopes.
●
The steering system and the driver assis-
tance systems and brakes do not work
when the engine is running irregularly or
switches off due to lack of fuel or an irregu-
lar supply thereof.
●
Always refuel when there is only one
quarter of fuel in tank to prevent the vehi-
cle to stop due to lack of fuel.
CAUTION
Never run the fuel tank completely dry. An
irregular fuel supply can cause misfiring
and unburnt fuel could enter the exhaust
system. The catalytic converter or the par-
ticulate filter may get damaged!
Note
The small arrow on the fuel gauge next to
the fuel pump symbol points out towards
the side of the vehicle with the fuel tank
flap.

Engine coolant temperature indicator.
Cool zone.
The engine has not reached
operating temperature yet. Avoid high
engine speeds and stressing the engine if
it has not reached operating tempera-
ture.
Normal zone.
At high outside tempera-
tures and when making the engine work
hard, the diodes may continue lighting
up and reach the upper zone. This is no
cause for concern, provided the control
lamp does not light up

Warning area.
When the engine is work-
ing hard, especially at high outside tem-
peratures, the diodes may light up in the
warning area.
The coolant temperature gauge only works
when the ignition is switched on.
Control and warning lamp
It lights up red
Do not carry on driving!
Engine coolant level too low, coolant temperature too
high.

Fault in the engine coolant system.
●
Stop the vehicle, switch off the engine and
let it cool down.
●
Check the engine coolant level
●
If the warning lamp does not switch off
even if the coolant level is correct, request
assistance from specialised personnel.
CAUTION
●
To ensure a long useful life for the engine,
avoid high revs, driving at high speed and
making the engine work hard for approxi-
mately the first 15 minutes when the engine
is cold. The phase until the engine is warm
also depends on the outside temperature.
