Do or Mirro rsEXTERIOR MIRRORS
NOTE: Objects viewed in exterior mirrors may 
appear further away than they actually are.
Mirror adjustment
•Move the control (2) to the left or right-hand 
position to select either the left or right hand 
mirror.
•With the starter switch turned to position 
‘II’, push the appropriate arrow on the 
mirror adjust control (1) to tilt the mirror 
glass up/down/left or right.
The door mirrors have integral heating 
elements which disperse ice or mist from the 
glass. These will operate automatically with the 
starter switch in position ‘II’, depending on 
external temperature.
NOTE: On vehicles fitted with the driver’s seat 
memory facility, up to three different exterior 
mirror positions can be stored in the seat 
memory, this enables the driver to recall the 
optimum mirror position at the touch of a 
button - for further information, please refer to 
‘DRIVER’S SEAT MEMORY FACILITY*’, 
page 32.Folding the mirror body
The door mirrors are designed to fold forwards 
or rearwards on impact. They can also be folded 
back towards the side windows into a ‘park’ 
position to enable the vehicle to negotiate 
narrower openings.
Manual operation: On some vehicles this 
operation can be carried out manually, by 
physically pushing the mirror bodies back 
towards the side windows, and then pulling 
them back into the normal (extended) 
positions.

Electric operation*: Press the mirror-fold 
button (arrowed in inset) once to fold the 
mirrors into the side windows. Press again to 
return the mirrors to the driving position.
NOTE: Electric mirror folding is disabled if 
vehicle speed exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
If the mirrors are accidentally knocked out of 
position (i.e. with one mirror extended and the 
other in the ‘parked’ position), an additional 
operation of the switch will re-synchronise 
them.
Automatic dimming
*
On some models, the mirrors are equipped with 
an electrochromatic dimming function that 
‘dims’ the mirror to reduce glare from the 
headlights of following vehicles at night.Automatic ‘kerb-view’ dipping
*
Vehicle’s fitted with driver’s seat memory have 
a pre-stored function, which causes the 
nearside mirror to dip automatically whenever 
reverse gear is selected. This facility is only 
available if the mirror select button (‘1’ on 
previous page), is set to the driver’s side.

InstrumentsINSTRUMENT PANEL
1. Fuel gauge
The pointer drops to zero when the starter 
switch is turned off, but quickly rises to show 
the level of fuel in the tank when the switch is 
turned to position ‘II’. After refuelling, the 
gauge rapidly rises to reflect the increase of fuel 
in the tank.
When the fuel remaining in the tank is a 
minimum of 2.6 gallons (12 litres) on petrol 
vehicles, or 2.2 gallons (10 litres) on diesel 
vehicles, the AMBER low fuel warning light in 
the fuel gauge illuminates. If the light 
illuminates, refuel at the first opportunity.
The small arrow visible in the fuel pump symbol 
on the gauge indicates the side of the vehicle on 
which the fuel filler is located - a useful 
reminder to help you position the vehicle on the 
correct side of the forecourt pumps before 
refuelling. WARNING
NEVER allow vehicles to run out of fuel (the 
resultant misfire may destroy the catalytic 
converter).
2. Speedometer
Indicates road speed in miles per hour and 
kilometres per hour.
3. Tachometer
Indicates engine speed in revolutions per 
minute (x 1000). In normal driving conditions 
the engine is most fuel efficient between 2000 
and 3000 rev/min.

4. Temperature gauge
Once the engine coolant has reached its normal 
operating temperature, the pointer will rise to a 
position midway between the RED and BLUE 
segments of the gauge (the precise position will 
vary according to climatic conditions).
If the pointer moves towards the RED segment, 
this indicates that the engine coolant is 
becoming too hot. Should the pointer move 
INTO the RED segment and the RED warning 
light within the gauge illuminates, severe 
engine damage could occur (under these 
circumstances, the air conditioning may switch 
off and engine performance may reduce in 
order to minimise engine load).
Stop the vehicle as soon as safety permits and 
switch off the engine and allow to cool down. If 
the problem persists, seek qualified assistance 
before continuing.
5. System check control
With the starter key NOT inserted, press and 
hold the control to check whether any system 
malfunctions have occurred. If faults exist, they 
will be listed in turn in the main message centre 
until the control is released. If no malfunctions 
have occurred, ‘CHECK CONTROL OK’ is 
displayed. See ‘MAIN MESSAGE CENTRE’, 
page 55, for further information. Any messages 
will also be displayed during driving and when 
the starter switch is turned off.
6. Gear selector position display
This shows the current gear lever position and 
indicates when low range has been selected. 
See ‘GEAR SELECTOR DISPLAY’, page 61, for 
further information.7. Main message centre
Displays all warning and information messages 
submitted by the vehicle systems. For further 
information concerning messages and their 
meanings, refer to ‘MAIN MESSAGE CENTRE’, 
page 55.
8. Total distance (odometer) and trip recorder
With the starter switch turned to position ‘II’, 
the display indicates the total distance travelled 
by the vehicle, and also shows the most recent 
individual journey distance. In some markets, 
the display can be set to show either miles or 
kilometres. To convert from one to another, 
press and hold the trip recorder reset button for 
more than two seconds. 
9. Service interval indicator
This shows the distance remaining before the 
next oil service or inspection is due. See 
‘SERVICE INTERVAL INDICATOR’, page 61, for 
further information.
10. Trip recorder reset button
Press briefly to return the trip recorder display 
to zero.  
						

							Trip Computer
54
Trip Co mputerTRIP COMPUTER - FUNCTION 
SELECTION
The trip computer utilises the message centre 
in the instrument pack and provides useful 
information to assist the driver to calculate fuel 
stops, journey times and distances.When the starter switch is in position ‘II’, the 
different trip computer statistics can be viewed 
in turn by pressing the button on the end of the 
direction indicator stalk repeatedly until the 
relevant statistic is displayed. The statistics are 
displayed in the following order:
•The current time.
•Fuel consumption 1.
•Fuel consumption 2.
•Range.
•Speed limit.
•Distance (from destination).
•Estimated time of arrival.
•Average speed.
•Time 1
* (park heating only).
•Time 2
* (park heating only).
•Stopwatch.
The driver has the option to select which of the 
above functions are displayed and also in which 
order. For further information, consult your 
‘In-Car Entertainment’ or ‘Audio, TV & 
Navigation System’ book.

the system check control switch.Critical warning messages
Critical warning messages are accompanied
by an audible warning and the warning is 
flanked by two flashing arrows. Critical warning 
messages are displayed continuously while the 
starter switch is turned on, and remain 
displayed while the fault persists.
DO NOT ignore these messages - TAKE 
CORRECTIVE ACTION IMMEDIATELY!
Warnings and information messages
Warning messages are non-critical, but must
be treated with some urgency. They will also
be accompanied by an audible warning each 
time the message is displayed.
DO NOT ignore these messages - TAKE 
CORRECTIVE ACTION IMMEDIATELY.
Warning messages are displayed for 
approximately 20 seconds. If other warning 
messages are pending, the display time will be 
reduced to approximately 2 seconds.
Information messages will be displayed as and 
when applicable, and also when the starter 
switch is turned on or off. Where the message 
requires action by the driver - TAKE 
CORRECTIVE ACTION AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
