Fuel Reserve Warning Lamp
The fuel reserve warning lamp should
come on when the key is turned to
steering lock position 2, and should go
out after the engine is running.
If the warning lamp stays on after the
engine starts, or comes on while driv­
ing, it indicates that the fuel level is
down to the reserve quantity (9.0 I
[2.4 US gal]).
Coolant Temperature Gauge
If the antifreeze mixture is effective to
- 3 0 ° C (-2 2 ° F), the boiling point of
the coolant in the pressurized cooling
system of your vehicle is approx.
125°C (257° F) (see also “ Fuels, Cool­
ants, Lubricants, etc.” ).
During severe operating conditions
and stop-and-go city traffic, the cool­
ant temperature may rise close to the
red marking.
Deceleration Shutoff
The fuel injection process is inter­
rupted only during deceleration, if the
driver’s foot is fully removed from the
gas pedal.
Low Engine Coolant Level Indicator
Lamp
The indicator lamp comes on with the
key in steering lock position 2, and
should go out when the engine is
running.
If it comes on with the engine running,
the coolant has dropped below the re­
quired level. You should then have the
engine cooling system checked for
signs of leakage and have it refilled as
soon as possible (see page 69).
Low Windshield and Headlamp
Washer Fluid Level Indicator Lamp
The indicator lamp comes on with the
key in steering lock position 2 and
should go out when the engine is
running.
If it comes on with the engine running,
the level of the reservoir has dropped
to about
1/4
of the total volume and
should be filled again with washer fluid
to which about 3 capfuls of MB auto­
shampoo have been added.
Outside Temperature Indicator
The temperature sensor is arranged in
the area of the front bumper. Due to
its location, the sensor can be affected
by road or engine heat during idling or
slow driving. This means that the ac­
curacy of the displayed temperature
can only be verified by comparison to
a thermometer located next to the
sensor, not by comparison to external
displays (i.e., bank signs, etc.).
Adaptation to ambient temperature
takes place in steps and depends on
the prevailing driving conditions (stop
and go - or moderate, constant driv­
ing) and difference in temperature to
be compensated.
Warning!
The outside temperature indicator
is not designed to serve as an Ice-
Warning-Device and is therefore
unsuitable for that purpose. Indi­
cated temperatures just above
freezing point are by no means a
warrant that the road surface is free
from any icing.
