Environmental note
Improper handling of service products is
hazardous to the environment.
Do not allow service products to enter the
sewage system, surface waters, ground
water or soil.
Check the vehicle assemblies for leaks regu-
larly. If fluid loss is identified, e.g. through oil
drops on the parking area, have the cause of
the fluid loss rectified at a qualified specialist
workshop.
Checking the anti-corrosion protec-
tion
