• Vehicle status (p. 602) Refilling coolant
Coolant helps keep the combustion engine at
the right operating temperature. The heat trans-
ferred from the engine to the coolant can be
used to warm the passenger compartment.
When refilling coolant, follow the instructions on
the package. Never fill the cooling system with
only water. The risk of freezing is increased with
too low or too high amounts of coolant.
If there is coolant under the vehicle, smoke from
the cooling system, or if more than 2 liters (about
2 quarts) of coolant has been added to the sys-
tem, there could be something wrong with the
cooling system and starting the vehicle could
damage the engine. Call a tow truck and do not
attempt to start the engine.
WARNING The coolant may be very hot. Never unscrew
the cap when the coolant is hot. If coolant
must be filled, unscrew the expansion tank
cap slowly to relieve overpressure. Coolant expansion tank.

Cleaning the leather upholstery
1. Apply the leather cleaner to a damp spongeand squeeze it until the cleaner foams.
2. Move the sponge in circular motions to apply the foam to the stain.
3. Dampen the stain thoroughly with the sponge. Let the sponge absorb the stain and
do not rub.
4. Dry the stain using a soft towel and let the leather dry completely.
Protecting the leather upholstery
1. Apply a small amount of leather protector toa cloth and then apply the protector to the
leather using light circular movements.
2. Let it dry for approximately 20 minutes.
Protecting the leather upholstery makes it better
able to withstand sunlight's harmful UV rays.

The wiper blades help remove water from the
windshield and rear window. Along with the
washer fluid, they clean the glass and help
improve visibility while driving. The windshield
and rear window wiper blades can be replaced.
Changing rear window wipers Lift the wiper arm from the window and pull the lower
section of the blade to the right.1. Grasp the center of the wiper blade and
lift it from the window to the stop position.
NOTE When the wiper arm is halfway folded out, it
will stop in a locking position that helps pre-
vent the arm from falling back onto the rear
window. The wiper arm must be pulled past
the locking position stop in order to change
the wiper blade.
2. Grip the lower part of the blade and pull
to the right until the blade loosens from the
arm.
3.

Press the new wiper blade until it clicks into
place. Check to make sure the blade is
securely in place.
4. Fold the wiper arm back toward the window.
CAUTION Check the blades regularly. Neglected main-
tenance shortens the life of the blades.

CAUTION•
The maximum trailer weights listed are
only applicable for altitudes up to 3280 ft
(1,000 m) above sea level. With increas-
ing altitude the engine power and there-
fore the car's climbing ability are impaired
because of the reduced air density, so
the maximum trailer weight has to be
reduced accordingly. The weight of the
car and trailer must be reduced by 10%
for every further 3280 ft (1,000 m) (or
part thereof).
