RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY.
Pedestrian horn
The pedestrian horn enables you to
warn others of your presence – espe-
cially pedestrians and cyclists.
In electric operating mode, the sys-
tem is activated automatically.
The sound is emitted when the vehi-
cle speed is between approximately
1 and 19 mph (1 and 30 km/h).
For further information on the
pedestrian horn, refer to the multi-
media instructions.
In the event of a fault with the
pedestrian horn, the warning light
is displayed on the instrument
panel, accompanied by the "Failure
Outside sound" message.
Consult an approved dealer.
