DANGER Risk of fatal injury due to poi‐
sonous exhaust gases
If the tailpipe is blocked or sufficient ventila‐
tion is not possible, poisonous exhaust gases
such as carbon monoxide may enter the vehi‐
cle. This is the case when the vehicle
becomes stuck in snow, for example.
#
Keep the tailpipe and the area around
the vehicle free from snow when the
engine or the stationary heater are run‐
ning.
#
Open a window on the side of the vehi‐
cle facing away from the wind to ensure
an adequate supply of fresh air.

WARNING Risk of accident and injury
due to being under the influence of alco‐
hol and drugs while driving
Drinking and driving and/or taking drugs and
driving are very dangerous combinations.
Even a small amount of alcohol or drugs can
affect your reflexes, perceptions and judg‐
ment.
The possibility of a serious or even fatal acci‐
dent are greatly increased when you drink or
take drugs and drive.
#
Do not drink or take drugs and drive or
allow anyone to drive who has been
drinking or taking drugs.
& WARNING Risk of accident due to the
brake system overheating

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 Engine damage due to excessively
high engine speeds

the engine in the overrevving range.
#
Do not drive with the engine in the over‐
revving range.
* 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
engine when pulling away
#
Do not warm up the engine while the
vehicle is stationary. Pull away immedi‐
ately.
#
Avoid high engine speeds and driving at
full throttle until the engine has reached
its operating temperature.
