Never use the brake pedal as a footrest.
#
Do not depress the brake pedal and the
accelerator pedal at the same time while
driving.

surfaces.
Therefore, observe the following notes:
R
Due to salt build-up on the brake disks and
brake pads, the braking distance can increase
considerably or result in one-sided braking.
R
Maintain a much greater safety distance to the
vehicle traveling ahead.
Remove salt build-up as follows:
R
Brake occasionally, paying attention to the
traffic conditions
R
Carefully depress the brake pedal at the end
of the journey and when starting the next jour-
