- Depending on vehicle equipment, the in-
str ument illumination (need les and gauges)
may t urn on when the lights are off and the
ignition is sw itched on. The illumination for
t he gauges reduces automat ically and even-
tua lly turns off as br ightness outside in-
creases . This func t ion rem inds the dr iver t o

Coolant temperature indicator
The coolant temperatu re display (D ¢ page 10,
fig. 4
or ¢ page 10, fig . 3 only functions when
the ignition is switc hed on . To prevent engine
damage, please observe the following notes
about the temperature ranges.
Cold range
If only the LEDs at t he bottom of t he ga uge tu rn
on, the engine has not reached operating tem -
pe rature yet. Avoid high engine speeds, full ac -
celerat ing and heavy engine loads .
Normal range
The engine has reached its oper at ing temper a-
ture once the LEDs up to the center of t he ga uge
turn on. If the . indicator light in the instru-
ment cluster display turns on, the coolant tern -
~
pe rature is too high ¢ page 25 .

cooling effect of the coo lant. This increases
the risk of the engine overheating dur ing

gine load .
- The front spoi ler a lso helps to distribute
cooling a ir correctly while driv ing. If the
spoiler is damaged, the coo ling effec t will
be impa ired a nd the risk of the eng ine ove r-
heating will increase. See an autho rized

- Vehicles without a coolant temperature dis-
play: to promote a long e ngine serv ice life,
avoiding high engine spee d s, full acce lera -
tion and heavy engine loads dur ing app roxi-
mately the first 15 minutes when the en-
gine is cold is recommended. The amount of
t ime that the eng ine is cold depends on the
outside temperature.
Tachometer
The tachometer displays the engine speed in rev-
olutions per minute (RPM).
The beginning of t he red zone in the tachometer
indicates the maxim um permissible engine speed
for all gea rs once the engine has bee n broken in
and when it is warmed up to operating tempera-
ture . Before reach ing the red zone, you sho uld
sh ift into the next higher gear, choose the "D" or
"S" se lecto r lever pos it io n, or remove your foot
from t he accele rat or ped al.
Applies to: vehicles with plug-in hybrid drive
