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 could
affect their function and/or the operation
of other networked components. This could
in particular also be the case for systems
relevant to safety. They might not function
properly anymore and/or jeopardise the
operational safety of the vehicle. There is
an increased risk of an accident and injury.
Do not attempt to modify the wiring as well
as electronic components or their software.
Always have work on electrical and elec-
tronic components carried out at a quali-
fied specialist workshop.
If you make any changes to the vehicle elec-
tronics, the general operating permit is
rendered invalid.
! There is a risk of damage to the vehicle
if:
the vehicle becomes stuck, e.g. on a
R
high kerb or an unpaved road
you drive too fast over an obstacle, e.g.
R
a kerb or a pothole in the road
a heavy object strikes the underbody or
R
parts of the chassis
In situations like this, the body, the
underbody, chassis parts, wheels or tyres
could be damaged without the damage
being visible. Components damaged in
this way can unexpectedly fail or, in the
case of an accident, no longer withstand
the strain they are designed for.
If the underbody panelling is damaged,
combustible materials such as leaves,
grass or twigs can gather between the
underbody and the underbody panelling.
If these materials come in contact with
hot parts of the exhaust system, they can
catch fire.
In such situations, have the vehicle
checked and repaired immediately at a
qualified specialist workshop. If, upon
continuing your journey, you notice that
driving safety is impaired, pull over and
stop the vehicle immediately, paying
attention to road and traffic conditions.
In such cases, consult a qualified spe-
cialist workshop.
