WARNING Risk of accident due to the
brake system overheating
If you leave your foot on the brake pedal
when driving, the brake system may over‐
heat.
This increases the braking distance and the
brake system may even fail.
#
Never use the brake pedal as a footrest.
#
Do not depress the brake pedal and the
accelerator pedal at the same time
while driving.
*
NOTE Wearing out the brake linings by
continuously depressing the brake pedal
#
Do not depress the brake pedal contin‐
uously whilst driving.
#
To use the braking effect of the engine,
shift to a lower gear in good time.
* NOTE Damage to the drivetrain and the
engine when pulling away
#
Do not warm up the engine when the
vehicle is stationary. Pull away immedi‐
ately.
#
Avoid high engine speeds and driving at
full throttle until the engine has reached
operating temperature.
#
Do not allow the wheels to spin.
* NOTE Damage to the catalytic converter
due to non-combusted fuel
The engine is not running smoothly and is
misfiring.
Non-combusted fuel may get into the cata‐
lytic converter.
#
Only depress the accelerator pedal
slightly.
#
Have the cause rectified immediately at
a qualified specialist workshop.
Limited braking effect on salt-treated roads:
R
due to salt build-up on the brake discs and
brake lining, the braking distance can
increase considerably or result in braking
only on one side.
R
maintain a much greater safe distance to the
vehicle in front.
To prevent salt build-up:
R
brake occasionally while paying attention to
the traffic conditions.
R
carefully depress the brake pedal at the end
of the journey and when starting the next
journey.
