X Top up the coolant, observing the warning notes before doing so
(Y page 286).
X If the coolant needs topping up more often than usual, have the
engine coolant system checked at a qualified specialist workshop. ? The fan motor is faulty.
X If the coolant temperature is below 120 †, you can continue driving
to the nearest qualified specialist workshop.

G WARNING
Never drive with an overheated engine. Driving when your engine is
overheated can cause some fluids which may have leaked into the
engine compartment to catch fire.
In addition, steam from an overheated engine can cause serious
burns, which can occur just by opening the bonnet.
There is a risk of injury.
X Stop the vehicle immediately, paying attention to road and traffic
conditions, and switch off the engine.
X Safeguard the vehicle against rolling away (Y page 150).
X Wait until the engine has cooled down.
X Make sure that the air supply to the engine radiator is not blocked,
e.g. by frozen slush.
X Do not start the engine again until the display message goes out and
the coolant temperature is below 120 †. The engine may otherwisebe damaged.
X Pay attention to the coolant temperature display.
X If the temperature increases again, consult a qualified specialist
workshop immediately.
Under normal operating conditions and with the specified coolant
level, the coolant temperature may rise to 120 †. Display messages
