Safety notes
DANGER
A blocked exhaust pipe or inadequate ven-
tilation can allow harmful exhaust fumes
to penetrate the vehicle. The exhaust
fumes contain pollutants which are colour-
less and odourless. In enclosed spaces, the
exhaust fumes can also build up outside
the vehicle. There is a danger of fatal in-
jury. Keep the exhaust pipe clear and en-
sure sufficient ventilation.
WARNING
An unsecured vehicle can start moving
and rolling away. There is a danger of acci-
dents. Before leaving the vehicle, secure it
to prevent it from rolling away.
Observe the following to ensure that the
vehicle is secured against rolling away:
– Apply the parking brake.
– Turn the front wheels towards the
kerb on upward or downward gradi-
ents.
– Additionally secure the vehicle on up-
ward or downward gradients, for ex-
ample with a chock.
NOTE
Repeated start attempts or starting several
times in quick succession means that fuel
is not burned or is inadequately burned.
The catalytic converter can overheat.
There is a danger of damage to property.
