WARNING
- Never turn off the engine before the ve-
hicle has come to a comp lete stop. The
full funct ion of the brake booster and the

must use more force to turn or brake if
necessary. Because you cannot steer and
brake as you usually wo uld, this could
lead to crashes and ser ious injuries.
- For safety reasons , you should always
pa rk your vehicle with the selector lever
in P. Otherwise, t he vehicle could inad -
verten t ly roll away.
- The radiator fan can continue to run fo r
up to 10 minutes even after you have
turned off the engine and removed the
ignition key. The radiator fan can a lso
turn on again if the engine coo lant heats
up because of intense sunlight or heat
build-up in the engine compartment.
- Always take the key with you whenever
you leave your vehicle. Otherw ise, the
engine could be started or electrical
equipment such as the power windows
could be operated . This can lead to seri-
ous injury.
- Never leave children or persons requiring
assistance unattended
in the vehicle. The
doors can be locked using the remote
transmitter,
preven t ing people from es-
caping from the veh icle on their own in
the event of an emergency. Depending
on the time of year, peop le inside the ve-
hicle can be exposed to very high or very
low temperatures .
