Tachometer 

The tachometer shows the engine speed in revolu-

tions per minute (rpm). 

The beginning of the red marks at the right end of 

the scale indicates the maximum permissible en-

gine rpm. 

A speed limiter prevents the engine from being 

overrevved during acceleration. Before reaching 

this area, the next higher gear should be select-

ed. 

Shift to the next lower gear when the engine rpm 

drops below 1,500 rpm. 

To avoid severe engine damage. 
f Always observe the engine rpm before down-

shifting to a lower gear, so you do not exceed 

the maximum engine rpm.
