92 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL

The outside temperature is displayed when the multi-
function indicator is activated. Sudden changes in
temperature, for instance when leaving a garage, are
only shown after a certain delay.

NOTE:

Outside temperature display

°F in USA only.

°C in Canada only.

Tachometer (Engine rpm)

Do not exceed the maximum permissible engine speed.

NOTE:

To protect the engine, its fuel supply is

interrupted when the maximum rpm is reached.
Despite this, the maximum rpm can still be exceeded in
overrun mode (e.g. when driving downhill).

WARNING!

Even if the display still reads a few degrees above
32

°

F (0

°

C), the road surface may be icy, particular-

ly in woods or on bridges. You could skid and lose
control over your vehicle and thereby cause an ac-
cident.

Adapt your speed and driving style to the
prevailing road and weather conditions to prevent
an accident and possible personal injury or
property damage.
