Abstract: Display device for indicating an operational state of a vehicle including a display unit, where the device shows graphical information on the display unit in the form of an arc-shaped scale and a number of numerals corresponding to the value of the operational state. The device includes an arc-shaped field with an extent from a first angle ?1 to a second angle ?2 and with an outer delimiting line that extends along the inside of the arc-shaped scale. The arc-shaped field is divided into a first segment A, which extends from the first angle ?1 to a third variable angle ?, and a second segment B, which extends from the third variable angle ? to the second angle ?2, where the third variable angle ? to the second angle ?2. The third variable angle ?corresponds to the relevant operational state of the vehicle and where ?1????2, where the first segment A is arranged to assume a state that is visually distinguishable from the second area B.
