Checking and topping up fluids
- Never remove the engine cover panel - risk
of burns!
- If any tests have to be performed with the
engine running, there is an extra safety risk
from the rotating parts, such as the drive

belts,
alternator and radiator
fan,
etc., and
from the high-voltage ignition system.
- Never touch the radiator fan. The electric
additional fan is controlled by temperature
and can start running without warning.
- Applies to vehicles with automatic gearbox:
Never open the throttle inadvertently (for
instance by hand from the engine compart­
ment) if
a
gear is engaged while the vehicle
is stationary with the engine running. The
vehicle will otherwise start moving immedi­
ately and could cause an accident.
- Observe the following additional warnings if
work on the fuel system or the electrical
system is necessary:
- Do not smoke.
- Never work near naked flames.
- Always keep an approved fire extinguisher
immediately available.
- Any work on the batteries and electrical sys­
tem in your vehicle entails a risk of injury
and chemical burns in addition to danger of
accident or fire.
For
this reason, you must
have the work carried out by
a
qualified
workshop.
© CAUTION
When topping up fluids make sure the correct
fluid is put into the correct filler opening. This
can otherwise cause serious malfunctions or
engine damage.
® For the sake of the environment
Inspect the ground underneath your vehicle
regularly so that any Leaks are detected at an
early stage. If
you
find spots of oil or other

fluids,
have your vehicle inspected in the
workshop.
