E xterior Lamp Failure In d ica to r
Lamp
With the key in steering lock
position 2, a dim indicator lamp
comes on and must go out with
the engine running.
With the key in steering lock
position 2 or with the engine
running, a bright illumination of
this lamp indicates an exterior
lamp failure.
If an exterior lamp fails, the in­
dicator will come on only when
that lamp is switched on.
If a brake or turn signal lamp fails,
the lamp failure indicator will come
on when applying the brake or
actuating the turn signal and stay
on until the engine is turned off.
Note:
The indicator lamp will also come
on if an incorrect bulb is installed.
If additional lighting equipment is
installed (e.g. auxiliary headlamps
etc.), be certain to connect into the
fuse before the failure indicator
monitoring unit in order to avoid
damaging the system.
Fuel Reserve W arning Lamp
The fuel reserve warning lamp will
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 driving, it indicates that the
fuel level is down to the reserve
quantity (2.4 US gal [9.0 I]),
500 E: (3.0 US gal [11.5 I]).
C oolant T em perature Gauge
If the antifreeze mixture is effective
to - 2 2 °F (-3 0 °C), the boiling point
of the coolant in the pressurized
cooling system of your vehicle is
approx. 26 6 °F (130°C).
During severe operating con­
ditions 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.
Warning!
• Driving when your engine is
badly overheated can cause
some fluids which may have
leaked into the engine com­
partment to catch fire. You
could be seriously burned.
Turn off the engine and get
out of the car until it cools
down.
• 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. Turn off the
engine and do not stand
near the car until it cools
down.
