An open split door protrudes from the ve‐
hicle and can endanger occupants and other
road users or damage the vehicle in the event
of an accident, braking or evasive maneuvers.

cle interior. There is risk of injuries or risk of
property damage. Do not drive with split doors
open.◀

doors open:
▷Close all windows and the glass sunroof.▷Greatly increase the air flow from the vents.▷Drive moderately.
Hot exhaust system
WARNING
During driving operation, high tempera‐
tures can occur underneath the body, for ex‐
ample caused by the exhaust gas system. If
combustible materials, such as leaves or grass,
come in contact with hot parts of the exhaust
gas system, these materials can ignite. There is
risk of injuries or risk of property damage.
Do not remove the heat shields installed and
never apply undercoating to them. Make sure
that no combustible materials can come in con‐
tact with hot vehicle parts in driving operation,
idle or during parking. Do not touch the hot ex‐
haust system.◀

Hydroplaning
On wet or slushy roads, a wedge of water can
form between the tires and road surface.

ing. It is characterized by a partial or complete
loss of contact between the tires and the road
surface, ultimately undermining your ability to
steer and brake the vehicle.

deep water, water can enter into the engine
compartment, the electrical system or the
transmission. There is risk of property damage.
When driving through water, do not exceed the
maximum indicated water level and the maxi‐
mum speed for driving through water.◀
When driving through water, observe the fol‐
lowing:
▷Drive through calm water only.▷Drive through water only if it is not deeper
than maximum 9.8 inches/25 cm.
▷Drive through water no faster than walking
speed, up to 3 mph/5 km/h.
Braking safely
Your vehicle is equipped with ABS as a standard
feature.
Perform an emergency stop in situations that
