WARNING

Instrument cluster

Driving on today's roads demands the full atten-

tion of the driver at all times. Driver distraction

causes accidents, collisions and serious personal

injury!

Introduction

Emergency starting and starting the engine with

a very weak vehicle battery or after the vehicle bat-

tery has been replaced may change or delete system

settings (including time, date, driver personalization,

and programming). Check the settings and correct as

necessary once the vehicle battery has built up

a sufficient charge.

Never use the buttons in the instrument cluster

while driving.

·

Adjust the settings in the instrument cluster or

the Infotainment system only when the vehicle

is standing still.

Open doors, hood, or trunk lid

To help prevent engine damage, the tachometer

needle should only enter the red zone (warning

zone) briefly, for example, when accelerating rap-

idly.

The instrument cluster display indicates if any doors,

the engine hood, or trunk lid are open once the vehi-

Different models and equipment versions may have

different displays.

Upshifting early into the next higher gear

saves fuel and reduces engine noise.

Driver personalization

For vehicles equipped with driver personalization,

the instrument cluster display indicates which user

profile is currently active for about 10 seconds after

the ignition is switched on. During this time, you can

causes accidents, collisions and serious personal

injury!

WARNING

Rapid acceleration can cause skidding and loss of

traction, especially on slippery roads, resulting in

a loss of vehicle control, collisions, and serious

personal injury.

— Close the fuel filler flap.
