Risk of accident
G
If you override a service note, you could be
putting the operational reliability and road
safety of the vehicle at risk. There is a dan-
ger of important assemblies, such as the
brake system, failing due to worn parts and
this could lead to an accident. Always ad-
here to the scheduled service due dates.
!
If the service work is not carried out at
the time specified, the result could be
increased wear and damage to the ve-
hicle or assemblies.
