Driver information
1)
Depending on version.
2)
Only in the CUPRA view on the instrument cluster.
We recommend that you avoid high revs and
that you follow the recommendations on the
gear-change indicator. See the additional in-
formation in ›››page160, Selecting the op-
timal gear.
Speed limiter
1)
If the indicator light turns on, the engine will
be automatically limited to the speed shown on
the instrument cluster. This protects the en-
gine components in situations such as a cold
start or against overheating.
The engine speed limiter is released as soon as
the engine reaches normal operating temper-
ature and the takes his/her foot o the accel-
erator.
If the engine speed limitation is caused by an
engine management fault, the indicator
lamp also lights up. Make sure the displayed
RPM is not exceeded (for example, by reducing
it). Go immediately to a specialised workshop
to have the fault repaired.
Flashing indicator
1)2)
The ashing indicator warns the driver that the
engine RPM limit has been reached.
The ashing indication is displayed in the up-
per areas of the rev counter by green, yellow
and red areas.
When the RPM approaches the limit, the
ash-
ing indicator ashes red. Shift up a gear at the
right time.
NOTICE
●
To prevent damage to the engine, the rev
counter needle should only remain in the red
zone for a short period of time.
●
When the engine is cold, avoid high revs
and heavy acceleration and do not make the
engine work hard.
For the sake of the environment
Changing up a gear early will help you to
save fuel and minimise emissions and engine
noise.

WARNING
When driving with low fuel, the vehicle may

injuries.
●
If the fuel tank level is too low, fuel
could reach the engine irregularly, particu-
larly when driving up or down slopes.
●
The steering system and the assistant sys-
tems and brakes do not work when the en-
gine is running irregularly or switches o due
to lack of fuel or an irregular supply thereof.
