Radiator shutters
The radiator shutters located in front of the radiator (hereinafter: shutter) help
to reduce CO emissions as well as harmful emissions and to save fuel.

If the system detects that it is possible to reduce the amount of air flowing to
the radiator, it closes the blinds. As a result, the air resistance of the vehicle is
reduced.
If a driving speed of 150 km/h is reached due to a function impairment of the
shutters, a message regarding the function impairment of the shutters is
shown in the instrument cluster display.
After this message has been displayed, the maximum speed of the vehicle is
automatically limited to 170 km/h. The manner of driving should therefore be
adapted to this limitation.
If this message appears in the winter, the cause may be ice or snow caught up
in the blinds. After the ice or snow has thawed, the blinds are functional again.
If the impairment not due to ice or snow, then assistance from a specialist
should be sought.
