Operating safety

Important safety notes

G

WARNING

If you do not have the prescribed service/

maintenance work or any required repairs

carried out, this can result in malfunctions or

system failures. There is a risk of an accident.
Always have the prescribed service/mainte-

nance work as well as any required repairs

carried out at a qualified specialist workshop.

G

WARNING

If you switch off the ignition while driving,

safety-relevant functions are only available

with limitations, or not at all. This could affect,

for example, the power steering and the brake

boosting effect. You will require considerably

more effort to steer and brake. There is a risk

of an accident.
Do not switch off the ignition while driving.

G

WARNING

Flammable material such as leaves, grass or

twigs may ignite if they come into contact with

hot parts of the exhaust system. There is a risk

of fire.
When driving off road or on unpaved roads,

check the vehicle's underside regularly. In

particular, remove parts of plants or other

flammable materials which have become

trapped. In the case of damage, contact a

qualified specialist workshop.

G

WARNING

Modifications to electronic components, their

software as well as wiring can impair their

function and/or the function of other net-

worked components. In particular, systems

relevant to safety could also be affected. As a

result, these may no longer function as

intended and/or jeopardize the operating

safety of the vehicle. There is an increased

risk of an accident and injury.
Never tamper with the wiring as well as elec-

tronic components or their software. You

should have all work to electrical and elec-

tronic equipment carried out at a qualified

specialist workshop.
