Correct and safe

Introductory information on correct use

▶

Read this Owner's Manual carefully, as proceeding

in accordance with this manual is a prerequisite for

the correct use of the vehicle. This Owner's Manual

should therefore always be in the vehicle.

▶

When using the vehicle, the generally binding legal

provisions that are speciﬁc to the country must be

observed. Such as those for transporting children,

switching o airbags, using tyres, road trac and

the like.

▶

Do not exceed the maximum permissible weights

and loads.

▶

Do not exceed the maximum permissible roof load.

▶

Use the speciﬁed fuel and operating ﬂuids.

▶

Drive on roads that correspond to the technical ve-

hicle parameters. Obstacles that exceed the

ground clearance of the vehicle can damage the

vehicle when driving over them.

▶

Care must be taken during operations related to

operation, maintenance and self-help to avoid

damage to the vehicle or injury. If necessary, seek

the help of a specialist company.

▶

All work on the vehicle’s safety systems e.g. on the

seatbelts or the airbag system, may only be carried

out by a specialist garage.

▶

When using the accessories, observe the instruc-

tions in the operating instructions of the accesso-

ries manufacturer. These include child seats, roof

racks, compressors etc.

▶

Observe the service intervals.

New vehicle or new parts

New vehicle - Running in the engine

Driving style during the ﬁrst 1500 km determines the

quality of the engine run-in process.

▶

During the ﬁrst 1000 km, rev the engine to max.

3/4 of the highest permissible engine speed and

avoid using a trailer.

▶

Over the next 500 km, the engine speed can be

slowly increased.

Depending on driving style and operating conditions,

the engine consumes some oil, up to 0.5 l/1000 km.

Consumption may be higher over the next 5000 km.

New brake pads

New brake pads do not provide the optimum braking

eect during the ﬁrst 200 km, they have to be worn

in ﬁrst. Therefore, drive very carefully.

New tyres

New tyres do not have optimum grip for the ﬁrst

500 km. Therefore, drive very carefully.

Regular checks

What should be taken into account before driving?

A vehicle with technical defects can increase the risk

of accidents and injuries.

Eliminate any defects before driving. If required,

seek the help of a specialised garage.

Pay special attention to the following points.

▶

Is the tyre undamaged?

▶

Is the tyre tread sucient?

▶

Is the tyre pressure sucient?

▶

Do the headlamps, brake and turn signals work?

▶

Is the windscreen in good condition?

▶

Is the engine oil, brake ﬂuid and coolant level OK?

▶

Is the air intake in the engine compartment free

from obstruction?

▶

Are the air outlet nozzles or air intake in front of

the windscreen free from obstruction?

▶

Are the windscreen wiper and washer system and

windscreen wiper blades functional?

▶

Is the windscreen washer ﬂuid level sucient?

▶

Are the windscreen wiper blades in good condi-

tion?

▶

Are all seatbelt system components in good work-

ing order? Are the seatbelts clean and have the

buckles been unclogged?

▶

Is the spoiler working properly?

▶

Are parts and components of the vehicle still visi-

bly attached?

▶

Are there no oil stains or other operating ﬂuids un-

der the vehicle?

No improper vehicle adjustments

Improper modiﬁcations can cause interference and

aect safety-related functions and other functions

of the vehicle.

▶

Adjustments and technical modiﬁcations to the ve-

hicle should only be carried out by a specialist ga-

rage.

▶

Do not cover the engine with additional insulation

materials, e.g. a blanket.

Keeping sensors and cameras in working

order

Some functions of your vehicle are supported by

sensors and cameras inside and outside the vehicle.

The rear-mounted accessories, e.g. bike rack, may

aect system and camera functionality.

▶

Do not cover or put a sticker over the sensors and

cameras and keep them clean.

17

Correct and safe › Introductory information on correct use

▶

If there is damage suspected to the sensors or

cameras, seek the help of a specialist garage.

Engine compartment

Before opening the engine compartment ﬂap

Risk of scalding! Do not open the engine compart-

ment ﬂap if steam or coolant comes out of the en-

gine compartment.

▶

Stop the engine and allow it to cool.

▶

Remove the ignition key. On vehicles with a key-

less locking system, open the driver's door.

When working in the engine compartment

▶

Keep children away from the engine compartment.

▶

Do not touch the radiator fan. The radiator fan can

turn itself on, even when the ignition is o.

▶

Do not touch electrical cables. Avoid short circuits

in the electrical system, especially on the vehicle

battery.

▶

Do not smoke near the vicinity of the engine and

refrain from handling open ﬂames or sparks.

▶

If you need to work in the engine compartment

with the engine running, be mindful of rotating en-

gine parts and electrical equipment.

▶

Do not leave any objects in the engine compart-

ment.

Handling operating ﬂuids

Your vehicle needs various fuels to operate that can

aect health or the environment when they are

emitted. These include fuel, oils, battery acid, coolant

and brake ﬂuid or AdBlue

®

.

▶

Only use operating ﬂuids outdoors or in well-venti-

lated areas. If required, wear protective equipment.

▶

Do not use or check operating ﬂuids with the en-

gine running.

▶

In the event of contact with operating ﬂuids, wash

aected areas with warm water. If required, seek

medical help.

▶

The leaked engine oil in the engine compartment

can cause a ﬁre, so wipe it o with a cloth.

▶

Store soiled cloths in a well-ventilated area until

disposal. Cloths with residues of engine oil can ig-

nite and cause a ﬁre.

Vehicle battery

Handling the vehicle battery

Battery acid is highly corrosive. Improper handling of

the vehicle battery can cause an explosion, ﬁre,

chemical burns or poisoning!

▶

When handling the vehicle battery, eye and skin

protection must be worn.

▶

Do not tilt the vehicle battery, as it may leak bat-

tery acid.

▶

If battery acid comes into contact with skin, wash

the aected areas with water for a few minutes.

Get medical help without delay.

▶

Do not charge a frozen or thawed vehicle battery.

Replace a frozen vehicle battery.

▶

Do not use a damaged vehicle battery.

▶

Short circuit! Do not connect the battery terminals.

Using electrical sockets in the vehicle

Improper handling of sockets can lead to life-threat-

ening electric shock or ﬁre.

▶

The sockets may get hot during operation. Do not

touch hot sockets.

▶

Protect sockets from liquids.

▶

If moisture gets into the socket, let the socket dry

before reusing it.

▶

Do not insert any objects into the socket contacts.

Before your journey

Adults and children, cargo and objects - everything

has its place in the vehicle. Observe the following in-

structions so that all occupants are protected in the

best possible way in the event of an accident.

Before you go

▶

Ensure that you have a good view of outside the

vehicle. Attach external devices (e.g. navigation

system) so that they do not restrict the view exter-

nally.

▶

Adjust the rearview mirrors.

▶

Close all doors and the engine compartment and

boot ﬂap.

▶

Take up the correct sitting position, adjust the

seats correctly and fasten the seat belt properly.

Ensure that passengers do likewise. Always leave

the seat belt on while driving.

▶

Only one person can be secured with a seat belt.

▶

Make sure that the seat belts are not trapped, e.g.

in the door or in the seat.

▶

Check seat belts, their locks and attachment points

for damage.

Sitting safely

For the safety of the occupants and to reduce the

risk of injury in the event of an accident, the follow-

ing instructions must be observed.

▶

Stand the backrests upright. If the front passenger

seat backrest has been folded forward, only the

seat behind the driver's seat may be used for trans-

porting passengers.

▶

Engage the rear seat backrests correctly.
