WARNING

engine
to run in confined
spaces
-
danger of
asphyxiation.

Never turn
off
the
engine
before the vehicle

a complete stop.
-
The brake
booster and power steering
only
work
when the
engine is running. If the en-
gine is off, you
have
to use more
force when
steering or braking. Because you cannot
steer and brake as you usually would,
this
could lead to crashes and serious injuries.

engine speed, full throttle, and
heavy
engine load as
long
as the engine
has
not reached
operating temperature
yet. You
could
damage
the eng ine.

For the sake of the environment
Do not let
the engine
run while parked to
warm up. Begin driving immediately. This re-
duces unnecessary
emissions.

switched on, the ignition will switch off af-
ter a certain amount of time. Make sure that

WARNING
!-='
-
Never
turn off the
eng
ine
before
the
vehicle
has come to
a
complete
stop.
-
Please note that the brake booster
and
pow-
er steering only work when the engine
is
running.
When
the eng ine off, you must
use
more
force to steer or
brake the
vehicle.
Be-
cause
the usual steering and braking capa-
bility is not available, the risk of
accidents
or
injuries
increases.
- For safety reasons, always park
the
vehicle
with the
selector lever in the
P
position.
Otherwise,
there is the risk that
the
vehicle
could
roll.
-
After
the engine has been switched off,
the
radiator
fan can continue to
run for up to 10
minutes
- even
with the ignition
switched
off. It can
also switch on again after some
time if the coolant temperature rises as the
result of
heat
buildup
or
ifthe
eng
ine
com-
partment is
heated
by the
sun's
rays and the
engine
is
hot.
CD
Note
If
the
engine has
been
under
heavy load for
an
extended
period
of
time,
heat builds
up in
the
engine
compartment after the engine
is
switched off
-
there is a risk of damaging the
engine.
For this reason, let
the engine
run for
at idle for approximately two minutes before
shutting
it off.
