This indicator normally comes on for

a few seconds when you turn the

ignition switch to the ON (II)

position. If this indicator comes on at

any other time, there is a problem in

the system. While this indicator is on,

the comfort button will not work, and

the system will remain in the sport

mode. You will also see a ‘‘CHECK

ADS SYSTEM’’ message on the

multi-information display. Have the

vehicle checked by your dealer as

soon as possible. For more

information, see page

.

This indicator comes on as a

reminder that you must refuel soon.

When the indicator comes on, there

is about 1.8 US gal (7.0 ) of fuel

remaining in the tank before the

needle reaches E. There is a small

reserve of fuel remaining in the tank

when the needle reaches E. You will

also see a ‘‘LOW FUEL’’ message on

the multi-information display (see

page

).

This indicator comes on when the

security system is set. See page

for more information on the

security system.
