Observe the following notes on vehicle noise
emissions and the acoustic vehicle warning sys-
tem:
The vehicle is equipped with a purely electric
R
drive system and develops considerably lower
vehicle noise emissions than vehicles with a
combustion engine.
It is for this reason that the vehicle is equip-
ped with a sound generator, which serves as
an acoustic vehicle warning system (AVAS).
The sound generator generates speed-depend-
R
ent vehicle noise emissions when driving
forward or backing up at a speed of up to
around 30 km/h.
This helps other road users, particularly
pedestrians and cyclists, to hear your vehicle
better.
When driving at speeds above 20 km/h The
R
vehicle acoustic warning system gradually
switches o .
Despite the sound generator, the vehicle still
R
may not be heard by other road users. Adapt
your driving style accordingly.
