tronics, the general operating permit is ren-
dered invalid.

curb or an unpave droad
R you drive too fast over an obstacle ,e.g. a
curb or ahole in the road
R ah eavy object strikes the undercarriage
or parts of the chassis
In situations like this, the body,t he under-
carriage, chassis parts, wheels or tires
could be damaged withou tthe damage
being visible. Components damaged in this way can unexpectedly fail or, in the case of
an accident, no longer withstand the strain

If the underbody paneling is damaged,
combustible materials such as leaves,
grass or twigs can gather betwee nthe
underbody and the underbody paneling. If
these materials come in contact with hot
parts of the exhaust system, they can catch fire.
In such situations, have the vehicle
checked and repaired immediately at a
qualified specialist workshop. If on con-
tinuing yourj ourney you notice that driving
safety is impaired, pullo ver and stop the
vehicle immediately,p aying attention to
road and traffic conditions. In such cases,
