Revolution counter
The rev counter indicates the number of en-
gine r
evolutions per minute.
Together with the gear-change indicator, the
rev counter offers you the possibility of using
the engine of your vehicle at a suitable
speed.
The beginning of the red zone of the rev
counter indicates the maximum speed in any
gear after running-in and with the engine hot.
However, it is advisable to change up a gear
or move the selector lever to D (or lift your
foot off the accelerator) before the needle
reaches the red zone
.
W
e recommend that you avoid high revs and
that you follow the recommendations on the
gear-change indicator. Consult the addition-
al information in
page 221, Selecting the
optimal gear.
CAUTION
T
o 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
sav
e fuel and minimise emissions and en-
gine noise.
