Notes
Important safety notes
If you ignore warning and indicator lamps and the event window, you will not be able to recog-
nize failures and malfunctions in components or systems. Driving/braking characteristics may
be affected and the operating and road safety of your vehicle may be limited. Have the affected
system checked and repaired at a qualified specialist workshop. Always observe the warning
lamps and event window and follow the corresponding measures.
Yellow event window
With a malfunction/notification of medium priority, the on-board computer displays a yellow
event window. The on-board computer displays a yellow event window, e.g. if you have not per-
formed the service work due. The on-board computer also displays a yellow event window for
special operating conditions, e.g. if the diesel particle filter is saturated or if the clutch is under
heavy load. If further information about the malfunction/notification is available, the event win-
dow displays the
Û
symbol. You can display the information using the
u
button on the
multifunction steering wheel. Observe the information and instructions in the event window.
