WARNING
If flammable materials such as leaves, grass or twigs are exposed to prolonged contact to parts of the exhaust system that heat up, they could ignite. There is a risk of fire.
Park the vehicle so that no flammable materials come into contact with parts of the vehicle which are hot. Take particular care not to park on dry grassland or harvested grain fields.
WARNING
If you switch off the ignition while driving, safety-relevant functions are only available with limitations, or not at all. This could affect, for example, the power steering and the brake boosting effect. You will require considerably more effort to steer and brake. There is a risk of an accident.
Do not switch off the ignition while driving.
WARNING
If you leave children unsupervised in the
vehicle, they could set it in motion by, for
example:
• releasing the parking brake
• shifting the automatic transmission out of
the parking position P
• starting the engine.
They could also operate the vehicle's equipment. There is a risk of an accident and injury.
When leaving the vehicle, always take the SmartKey with you and lock the vehicle. Never leave children unsupervised in the vehicle.
Always secure the vehicle correctly against rolling away. Otherwise, the vehicle or its drivetrain could be damaged.
To ensure that the vehicle is secured against rolling away unintentionally: • the electric parking brake must be applied.
• the transmission must be in position P and the SmartKey must be removed from the ignition lock.
• on steep uphill or downhill gradients, turn the front wheels towards the curb.
• on steep uphill or downhill gradients, the front axle of an empty vehicle must be secured, for example with a wheel chock.
• on steep uphill or downhill gradients, the rear axle of a laden vehicle must be additionally secured, for example with a wheel chock.
