A WARNING l
Failure to observe illuminated warning lamps
and text messages can lead to your vehicle
breaking down in traffic, and can cause acci­
dent and serious injury.
• Never ignore any illuminated warning
lamps or text messages.
• Stop the vehicle as soon as possible and
when safe to do so.
• Broken-down vehicles increase the risk of
accidents both for you and for other road
users. If necessary , switch on the hazard
warning lights and set up the warning trian­
gle to warn other road users.
• Stop the vehicle at a safe distance away
from moving traffic and ensure that no part of
the exhaust system can come into contact
with any inflammable material underneath the
vehicle, e.g . dry grass or fuel.
~A WARNING
Streets and bridges can be iced over at out­
side temperatures above freezing point.
• There may be black ice on the roads at
outside temperatures above +4°C (+39 °F) and
also when no snowflake symbol is displayed
as a black ice warning.
• You should never rely solely on the out­
side temperature display!
Failure to observe illuminated indicator lamps
and text messages can lead to your vehicle be­
ing damaged.
