If you hold the reset button A ⇒ page 17, fig. 18 pressed for about 1 second, the
trip counter is set back to zero.
An audible signal sounds as an additional warning signal.
Trip counter for distance driven
The trip counter indicates the distance which you have driven ⇒ fig. 19 since this
counter was last reset - in steps of 100 metres or 1/10 of a mile.
Caution
Never run the fuel tank completely empty! The irregular supply of the fuel system
can lead to irregular running of the engine. Unburnt fuel may get into the exhaust
system and damage the catalytic converter.
Counter for distance driven
The counter for distance driven ⇒ fig. 19 indicates the total distance in kilometers
or miles which the vehicle has driven.
Note
Fault display
After filling up, it can occur that during dynamic driving (e.g. numerous curves,
braking, driving downhill and climbing a steep hill) the fuel gauge indicates approx.
a fraction less. When stopping or during less dynamic driving, the correct fuel
supply quantity is indicated. This effect is not a fault.
If there is a fault in the instrument cluster, a constant text will appear in the display
Error. Have the fault rectified as soon as possible by a specialist workshop.
WARNING
Never seek to adjust the trip counter for distance driven while driving for
safety reasons!
