.&_ WARNING
Overloading a vehicle can cause loss of vehicle control, a crash
or other accident, serious per­
sonal injury, and even death.
-Carrying more weight than
your vehicle was designed to carry will prevent the vehicle
from handling properly and increase the risk of the loss of
vehicle control.
-The brakes on a vehicle that
has been overloaded may not
be able to stop the vehicle
within a safe distance.
-Tires on a vehicle that has
been overloaded can fail sud­
denly, including a blowout and
sudden deflation, causing loss
of control and a crash.
-Always make sure that the to­
tal load being transported - incl uding the weight of a trail­
er hitch and the tongue
weight of a loaded trailer -
does not make the vehicle heavier than the vehicle's
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating.

Determining correct load
limit
Use the example below to calcu­
late the total weight of the pas­
sengers and luggage or other
things that you plan to transport
so that you can make sure that
your vehicle will not be overload­
ed.
Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit
1. Locate the statement "THE
COMBINED WEIGHT OF OCCU­
PANTS AND CARGO SHOULD
NEVER EXCEED XXX KG OR XXX
LBS" on your vehicle's placard
(tire inflation pressure label)
¢ page 343, fig. 2 76.
2. Determine the combined
weight of the driver and pas­
sengers that will be riding in
your vehicle.
3. Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers
from
"XXX" kilograms or "XXX"
pounds shown on the stick­
er ¢
page 343, fig. 2 76.
4. The resulting figure equals the
available amount of cargo and
luggage load capacity. For ex­
ample, if the
"XXX" amount
equals 1400 lbs. and there will.,,.

wash operator to reduce the risk of acci­dents.
- To reduce the risk of cuts, protect yourself
from sharp metal components when wash­
ing the underbody or the inside of the wheel
housings .
- After washing the vehicle, the brak ing effect
may be delayed due to mo isture on the
brake rotors or ice in the w inter . This in­
creases the risk of an acc ident. The brakes
must be d ried fi rst w ith a few careful b rake
applications.
(D Note
- If you wash t he vehicle in an automatic car
wash, yo u m ust fold the exte rior m irrors in
to reduce the risk of damage to the mirrors.
Power folding exte rior m irrors* must on ly
be fo lded in a nd out using the power folding
fu nct ion.
- To reduce the risk of damage to the rims
and tires, compare the width between the
whee ls on your vehi cle w it h t he dis tan ce be­
tween the g uide rai ls in the car wash.
- To reduce t he risk of damage, compare the
height and width o f you r vehicle wi th the
Ca re and cleaning
height and w idth of the inside of the car
was h.
- T o red uce the risk of pa int damage, do not
was h the vehicle in d irect sun light .
- T o red uce the risk of d am age to the s urf ace,
do not use insect removing sponges, k itche n
sponges or similar items .
- Mat te finish painted veh icle components:
- To reduce the risk of damage to the sur-
face, do not use polishing agents or hard
wax .
- Never use protective wax. It can destroy
the matte finish effect .
- Do not place any stickers or magnetic
signs on vehicle parts painted with matte
finish paint . The paint cou ld be damaged
when the stickers or magne ts are re­
moved .
@ For the sake of the environment

@ Tips
The discharged battery must be properly con­
nected to the vehicle's electrical system .
When jump starting or charg ing the battery,
never connect the negative ground cable to
the battery negative post because the battery
manager system must be able to detect the
battery's state of charge. Always connect the
negative ground cable to the negative ground
post of the battery manager control unit.
Using the jump start
cable
Both jump start cables must be connected in the
correct order!
Fig. 292 Engine compartment: connect ors for jump start
cables and a charger
Fig. 293 Ju mp starting us ing a battery in another vehicle:

The procedure described below for connecting
jumper cables is intended to prov ide a jump start
for your vehicle .
Vehicle with discharged battery
•Turnoff lights and accessories, move automatic
transmission lever to N (Neutral) or P (Park)
and set parking brake.
Emergency situations
Connecting the positive cable (red) to the
positive terminal
• Open the red cover on the positive terminal
r=>fig. 292 .
1. Secure one end of the positive cable (red) to
the jump start pin
r=> fig. 293 (D (pin under
the red cover = "posit ive") on the vehicle that
needs to be started @.
2. Secure the other end of the positive cable
(red) to the positive termina l@ on the bat­
tery provid ing the current @.
Connecting the negative cable (black) to the
negative terminal
3. Secure one end of the negative cable (black)
to the nega tive term inal @ on the battery
that is providing the current @.
4. Secure the other end of the negative cable
(black) to the jump start pin@ (hex head pin
= "negative") on the vehicle that needs to be
started @.
Starting the engine
• Start the engine on the vehicle providing the
jump start @and let it run at idle.
• Now start the engine on the vehicle with the
drained battery @.
• If the engine does not start, stop the starting
procedure after 10 seconds and then repeat it
after approx imately 30 seconds.
• Remove the cables when the engines are run­
ning. Remove them in reverse order from the
way they were installed.
• Close the red cover on the positive terminal.
T he battery is vented to the outside to prevent
gases from enter ing the vehicle interior . Make
sure that the jumper clamps are well connected
with their
metal parts in full contact with the
battery terminals.
_& WARNING
-To avoid serious personal injury and damage to the vehicle, heed all warnings and instruc ­
tions of the jumper cable manufacturer. If in
doubt, call for road service.
- Jumper cables must be long enough so that
the vehicles do not touch . ..,_
373

Emergency situations
-When connecting jumper cables, make sure
that they cannot get caught in any moving
parts in the engine compartment.
- Do not bend over the batteries -danger of
chemical burns!
- The battery cell locking screws must be
tightened securely.
- Before you check anything in the engine
compartment, always read and heed all
