NOTE Damag e to the vehicle due to driv-
ing too fast and due to impacts to the
vehicle underbody or suspension compo-
nents In the following situations, in particular, there
is a r
isk of damage to the vehicle:
= the vehicle becomes grounded, e.g. on a
high kerb or an unpaved road
= the vehicle is driven too fast over an obsta-
cle, e.g. a kerb, speed bump or pothole
= a heavy object strikes the underbody or
suspension components
In situations such as these, damage to the
body, underbody, suspension components,
wheels or tyres may not be visible. Compo-
nents damaged in this way can unexpectedly
fail or, in the case of an accident, may no lon-
ger absorb the resulting force as intended.
If the underbody panelling is damaged, Oam-
mable materials such as leaves, 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 t

he exhaust system. 
Have the vehicle checked and repaired
immediat

ely at a qualiNed specialist
workshop.
or 
If driving safety is impaired while con-
tinuing y

our journey, pull over and stop
the vehicle immediately, while paying
attention to road and traPc conditions,
and contact a qualiNed specialist work-
shop. Plug-in hybrid
Hybr

id vehicles have a combustion engine and at
least one electric motor. The energy supply for
operating the vehicle electrically is provided by
the high-voltage on-board electrical system. &
DANGER Risk of deat
h and Nre due to
modiNed and/or damaged components of
the high-voltage on-board electrical sys-
tem
The vehicle's high-voltage on-board electrical
sy
stem is under high voltage. If you modify
component parts in the vehicle's high-voltage
on-board electrical system or touch damaged
component parts, you may be electrocuted. In
addition, modiNed and/or damaged compo-
nents may cause a Nre.
In the event of an accident or impact to the
vehicle underbody, components of the high-
voltage electrical system may be damaged
although the damage is not visible. 
Never make any modiNcations t
o the
high-voltage on-board electrical system. 
Do not switch on or use the vehicle if its
high-v
oltage on-board electrical system
components have been modiNed or dam-
aged. 28
General notes


Never touch damaged components of
t
he high-voltage on-board electrical sys-
tem. 
Aser an accident, do no
t touch any com-
ponents of the high-voltage on-board
electrical system. 
Aser an accident, ha
ve the vehicle trans-
ported away. 
Have the components of the high-voltage
on-boar
d electrical system checked at a
qualiNed specialist workshop and
replaced if necessary. The components of the vehicle's high-voltage on-
boar
d electrical system are marked with yellow
warning stickers. The cables of the high-voltage
on-board electrical system are orange. High-voltage components that can become very
ho
t are marked with an additional warning sticker: Vehicles with hybrid systems generate
signiN-
cantl
y less noise when stationary and when being
driven than vehicles with combustion engines.
When driving in electric mode, the vehicle may
not be heard by other road users due to the signif-
icantly reduced noise generated.
It is for this reason that the vehicle is equipped
with a sound generator, which serves as an acous-
tic vehicle alerting system (AVAS). Notes on assembling the number plate on the
fr

ont licence plate holder
* NOTE Malfunctions and sy
stem failures
due to incorrect assembly of the licence
plate on the front licence plate holder If the licence plate is incorrectly assembled on
t

he front licence plate holder, sensors, cam-
eras or driving and safety systems may mal-
function or fail.
Observe the following points when assembling
the licence plate on the front licence plate
holder: General notes
29


Assemble the licence plate directly on
t
he licence plate holder without advertis-
ing media or other holders. 
Assemble the licence plate so that it
does no
t protrude above or to the side of
the licence plate adapter. Declarations of conformity and notes on driving
