WARNING Risk of inju ryby laser beam
from motion de tector
The motion de tector transmits invisible radia‐
tion from LEDs (light-emitting diodes).
These LEDs are classified under the 1M laser
class and can cause retina dama geinthefo l‐

Position of motion de tector
If th eve hicle is equipped with a motion de tector,
th e cargo compartment lighting is also activated
via the motion de tector.
If th e motion de tector de tects mo vement in the

The cargo compartment lighting can be switched
on via the motion de tector if:
R The vehicle is stationar y,the parking brake is
applied and the brake pedal is not being
depressed.
R Vehicles with automatic transmission: the
selector le ver is in position 005Dand you are
not depressing the brake pedal.
R The vehicle has not been loc ked from the out‐

WARNING Risk offire caused byhot
ex haust sy stem parts
Flammable material such as lea ves, grass or

Park theve hicle so that no flammable
material can come into con tact wi thhot

In particular, do not park on dry grass‐
land or har vested grain fields. If
th eve hicle is predominantly used for short dis‐
ta nce driving or extended non-operational times,
th is could lead toa malfunction in the automatic
cleaning function forth e diesel particulate filter.
As a result, permanent blocking of the diesel par‐
ticulate filter may occur and fuel may also accu‐
mulate in the engine oil and cause engine failure.
