Notes on driving
\nWARNINGRisk of accident duetoobjects inthe driver'sfootwell
Objects inthe driver'sfootwell may impedepedal travel or block a depressed pedal.
This jeopardizesthe operating androadsafety ofthevehicle.

\nWARNINGRisk of skidding and of anaccident duetoshifting down on slipperyroad surfaces
Ifyou shift down on slipperyroad surfacestoincreasethe engine braking effect,the drivewheels may lose traction.
Do not shift down on slipperyroad sur‐facestoincreasethe engine brakingeffect.
\nDANGERRisk offatal injury duetopoi‐sonousexhaustgases
Ifthetailpipe is blocked or sufficientventila‐tion is not possible, poisonousexhaustgasessuch as carbon monoxide may enterthevehi‐cle. This isthe case ifthevehiclegetsstuckin snow,forexample.
Keepthetailpipe andthe area aroundthevehicle free from snow whentheengine orthestationary heater arerun‐ning.
