Advice
drawing attention to your vehicle. This meth-
od must comply with traffic legislation. WARNING
A faulty vehicle in traffic represents a risk of
accident for the driver and for other road
users.
● Stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible.
Park the vehicle a safe distance from sur-
rounding traffic to lock all the doors in case of
an emergency. Turn on the hazard warning
lights to warn other road users.
● Never leave children or disabled people
alone in the vehicle if the doors are to be
locked. In case of an emergency, passengers
will be trapped inside the vehicle. Individuals
locked in the vehicle can be exposed to very
high or very low temperatures. WARNING
The components of the exhaust system reach
very high temperatures. This could cause a
fire and considerable damage.
● Always park your vehicle so that no part of
the exhaust system can come in contact with
flammable materials (such as dried grass or
fuel). Note
● The vehicle battery will discharge and run
down if the hazard warning lights remain on
for too long (even with the ignition turned
off). ●
For some vehicles, the brake lights will
blink when braking suddenly at speeds of ap-
proximately 80 km/h (50 mph) to alert vehi-
cles to the rear. If braking continues, the haz-
ard warning lights system will automatically
be turned on at a speed of less than approxi-
mately 10 km/h (6 mph). The brake lights re-
main lit. Upon accelerating, the hazard warn-
ing lights will be automatically turned off. Vehicle tool kit*
Introduction When securing the vehicle in case of a break-
down, please note the legal requirements for
each country.
Vehicle tool kit
For vehicles with a factory-fitted spare wheel
or temporary spare wheel, in addition to win-
ter wheels, the luggage compartment may
contain additional vehicle tools
››› page 172. WARNING
When the vehicle tool kit, tire mobility set
and spare wheel are loose in the interior they
can be violently thrown in case of a sudden
manoeuvre or braking and especially in acci-
dents, causing serious injury.
● Ensure that the vehicle tool kit, the tire mo-
bility set and the spare wheel or temporary spare wheel are safely secured in the luggage
compartment.
WARNING
Unsuitable or damaged vehicle tools can
cause injury or accidents.
● Never work with inappropriate or damaged
tools. Location

Introduction The doors and rear lid can be locked manual-

Opening and closing doors carelessly can
cause serious injury.
● If the vehicle is locked from outside, the
doors and windows cannot be opened from

alone in the car. They could be trapped in the car in an emergency and will not be able to
get themselves to safety.
●
Depending on the time of the year, temper-
atures inside a locked and closed vehicle can
be extremely high or extremely low resulting
in serious injuries and illness or even death,
particularly for young children. WARNING
Getting in the way of the doors and the rear
lid is dangerous and can lead to serious in-
jury.
● Open and close the doors and the rear lid
only when there is nobody in the way. CAUTION

carefully disassemble components and then
reassemble them carefully to avoid damage
to the vehicle. Manually locking and unlocking the
