Dangerous emissions
As the vehicle is used, the components of the exhaust
system and the engine itself reach very high
temperatures and remain hot long after the engine
is switched off.
As the battery is charged, gases are released which
are potentially explosive in the event of contact with
sparks or naked flame.
The battery also contains sulphuric acid as an
electrolyte, which may cause irritation in the event
of skin contact.
After the vehicle is stopped with a warm engine, the
electric cooling system fans may activate without
warning.
