This
Owner’s Manual
describes every option and model variant available
and therefore some of the items covered may not apply to your
particular vehicle. Furthermore, due to printing cycles it may describe
options before they are generally available.
Remember to pass on this

when reselling the vehicle. It
is an integral part of the vehicle.
WARNING:
Fuel pump and high voltage battery shut-off
switches: In the event of an accident the fuel pump shut-off
switch may automatically cut off the fuel supply to the engine and the
high voltage shut-off switch cuts off power from the high voltage
battery. These switches can also be activated through sudden vibration
(e.g. collision when parking). For information on resetting the fuel
pump shut-off switch and the high voltage battery shutoff switch, refer
to the
Fuel pump/high voltage shut-off switches
in the
Roadside
Emergencies
