WARNING Risk of accident due to the
ignition being switched off whilst the
vehicle is in motion
If you switch off the ignition whilst the vehi‐
cle is in motion safety-relevant functions will
be restricted or no longer available. This may
effect the power steering system and brake
force boosting, for example.

to steer and brake.

WARNING Risk of exhaust gas poisoning
Combustion engines emit poisonous exhaust
gases such as carbon monoxide. Inhaling
these exhaust gases causes poisoning.
#
Never leave the engine running in an
enclosed space without sufficient venti‐
lation.
&
DANGER Risk of fatal injury due to poi‐
sonous exhaust gases
If the tailpipe is blocked or sufficient ventila‐
tion is not possible, poisonous exhaust gases
such as carbon monoxide may enter the vehi‐
cle. This is the case if the vehicle gets stuck
in snow, for example.
#
Keep the tailpipe and the area around
the vehicle free from snow when the
engine or the stationary heater are run‐
ning.
#
Open a window on the windward side of
the vehicle to ensure an adequate sup‐
ply of fresh air.

or drugs can compromise your reflexes, per‐
ception and judgment.
The possibility of a serious or even fatal acci‐
dent is greatly increased when you drink or
take drugs and drive.
#
Do not drink or take drugs and drive or
allow anyone to drive who has been
drinking alcohol or taking drugs.
