If the ECO start/stop function is activated,
the engine can be started unintentionally, e.g.
by accidentally depressing the clutch pedal. If
work is being carried out on the engine under
these circumstances, there is a risk of injury
from moving engine parts.
Deactivate the ECO start/stop function
before work is carried out on the engine.
An unlocked bonnet may open up when the
vehicle is in motion and block your view. There
is a risk of an accident.
Never unlock the bonnet when driving. Before
every trip, ensure that the bonnet is locked.
When being opened and closed, the bonnet
may suddenly fall into the closed position.
There is a risk of injury to persons in the range
of movement of the bonnet.
Open and close the bonnet only when nobody
is in the range of movement.
Certain components in the engine compart-
ment could be very hot, e.g. the engine, the
radiator and parts of the exhaust system.
There is a risk of injury when accessing the
engine compartment.
As far as possible, allow the engine to cool
down and only touch the components descri-
bed in the following.
Cloths or other flammable materials left in the
engine compartment can ignite if they come
into contact with the exhaust system or parts
of the engine that heat up. There is a risk of
fire. After carrying out maintenance work,
make sure that no extraneous flammable
material is left in the engine compartment or
on the exhaust system.
If you open the bonnet while the engine is
overheating or while there is a fire in the
engine compartment, you could come into
contact with hot gases or other leaking ser-
vice products. There is a danger of injury.
Allow an overheating engine to cool down
before opening the bonnet. If there is a fire in
the engine compartment, leave the bonnet
closed and notify the fire brigade.
There are moving components in the engine
compartment. Certain components may con-
tinue to move or suddenly move again even
after the ignition has been switched off, e.g.
the radiator fan. There is a risk of injury.
If you have to carry out work in the engine
compartment:
R
switch off the ignition
R
never touch the dangerous areas surround-
ing moving components, e.g. the rotation
area of the fan
R
remove jewellery and watches
R
keep items of clothing and hair, for exam-
ple, away from moving parts.
