WARNING
If you must stop for technical reasons, then park the vehicle at a safe
distance from the traffic and switch off the engine and switch on the hazard
warning light system ⇒ page 56, "Switch for hazard warning lights ".
Pay attention to the following instructions ⇒ page 185, "Working in the
engine compartment" before checking the coolant fluid level and opening
the bonnet.
Take care when opening the coolant expansion bottle. If the engine is hot,
the cooling system is pressurized - risk of scalding. It is best to allow the
engine to cool down before removing the cap.
Do not touch the coolant fan! The coolant fan may switch on automati-
cally even if the ignition is off.
