General
Do not allow the engine and
cooling system to overheat
Under certain conditions, e.g. when driving in
hilly terrain and with a heavy load, especially
in warm weather, there is a risk of the engine
and cooling system overheating.
To avoid overheating in the cooling
system:
• Drive at low speeds if driving with a trailer
up a long incline.
• Switch off the air conditioning temporarily.
• Avoid letting the engine idle.
• Do not turn the engine off immediately
you stop, if the car has been driven hard.
• Remove any auxiliary lamps from in front
of the grille if driving in extreme high
temperatures.
To avoid the engine overheating:
Do not exceed engine speeds of 4500 rpm
(diesel engine: 3500 rpm) if driving with a
trailer or caravan in hilly terrain. The oil tem-
perature can become too high.
