A
WARNING
~
- Never turn off the engine before the
ve-
hicle has come to a complete stop. The
full function of the brake booster and the
power steering is not guaranteed. You
must use more force to turn or brake if
necessary. Because you cannot steer and
brake as you usually would, this could
lead to crashes and serious injuries.
- For safety reasons, you should always
park your vehicle with the selector lever
in P. Otherwise, the vehicle could inad-
vertently roll away.
- The radiator fan can continue to run for
up to 10 minutes
even
after you have
turned off the engine and removed the
ignition key. The radiator fan can also
turn on again if the engine coolant 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. Otherwise, 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,
preventing people from es-
caping from the vehicle on their own in
the event of an emergency. Depending
on the time of year, people inside the
ve-
hicle can be exposed to
very
high or
very
low temperatures .
