thefo llowing situations, in particular, there
is a risk of damage totheve hicle:
R theve hicle becomes grounded, e.g. on a
high kerb or an unpa vedro ad
R theve hicle is driven toofast ove r an obsta-
cle, e.g. a kerb, speed bump or po thole
R a heavy object st rike sth e underbody or

In situations such as these, damage tothe
body, underbody, suspension components,
wheels or tyres may not be visible. Compo-
nents damaged in this wa y can un expectedly
fa il or, in the case of an accident, may no lon-
ge r absorb there sulting forc e as intended.
If th e underbody panelling is damaged, 0am-
mable materials such as lea ves, grass or twigs
can collect between the underbody and the
underbody panelling. These materials may ignite if
they come into contact with hot parts
of theex haust system. #
Have theve hicle checked and repaired
immediately at a quali/ed specialist
wo rkshop.

component parts in theve hicle's high- voltage
on-board electrical system or touch damaged
component parts, you may be electrocuted. In

Have the components of the high-voltage
on-board electrical system checked at a
qu ali/ed specialist workshop and
re placed if necessar y. The components of
theve hicle's high- voltage on-
board electrical system are mar ked with yellow
wa rning stic kers. The cables of the high-voltage
on-board electrical system are orange. High-voltage components
that can become very
hot are mar ked with an additional warning stic ker: Ve
hicles with hybrid systems generate signi/-
cant lyless noise when stationary and when being
driven than vehicles with combustion engines.
When driving in elect ric mode, theve hicle may
not be heard by otherroad users due tothe signif-
icantly reduced noise generated.
It is forth is reason that theve hicle is equipped
with a sound generator, which ser ves as an acous-
tic vehicle alerting system (A VAS).
