qualified
expert assistance.
Do not warm up the engine by running
it while the vehicle is stationary. In-
stead, pull
off
as soon as there is good visi-
bility through the windows. This helps the
engine reach operating temperature faster
and reduces emissions.
Components with a high power con-
sumption are switched
off
temporarily
when the engine is started.
When starting from cold, the engine
may be a little noisy for the
first
few
seconds. This is quite normal, and no cause
for concern.
At outside temperatures of less than
+5°C (+41°F), fumes may be detec-
ted under a vehicle with a diesel engine if
the fuel-powered supplementary heater is
switched on.

of vehicle control, accidents and serious
injuries.
·

the exhaust system can come into con-
tact with
inflammable
material under-
neath the vehicle, e.g. undergrowth,
leaves, dry grass, spilt fuel.

ti-corrosion coatings to the exhaust
pipes, catalytic converters, heat shields
