Radio SMART FORTWO COUPE 2010 User Guide

malfunction of the vehicle’s electronic
system, possibly resulting in an accident
and/or serious personal injury.
Radio transmitters, such as a mobile phone
or a citizens band unit should only be used
inside the vehicle if they are connected to
an antenna that is installed on the outside
of the vehicle.
Refer to the radio transmitter operation
instructions regarding use of an external
antenna.
Emission control
Certain engine systems serve to keep the
toxic components of the exhaust gases
within permissible legal limits.
These systems, of course, will function
properly only when maintained strictly
according to factory specifications.
Any adjustments to the engine should
therefore be carried out only by qualified
smart center authorized technicians.
Engine adjustments should not be altered
in any way. Moreover, the specified service
jobs must be carried out regularly
according to smart servicing
requirements. For details refer to the
Maintenance Booklet.
GWarning!
Inhalation of exhaust gas is hazardous to
your health. All exhaust gas contains
carbon monoxide (CO), and inhaling it can
cause unconsciousness and lead to death.
Do not run the engine in confined areas
(such as a garage) which are not properly
ventilated. If you think that exhaust gas
fumes are entering the vehicle while
driving, have the cause determined and
corrected immediately. If you must drive
under these conditions, drive only with at
least one window fully open at all times.
Coolant temperature
During severe operating conditions and
stop-and-go city traffic, the coolant
temperature may rise.
! Excessive coolant temperature causes
the red coolant temperature warning
lamp 00AE in the instrument cluster
comes on.
The engine should not be operated with
the red coolant temperature warning
lamp illuminated. Doing so may cause
serious engine damage which is not
covered by the smart Limited Warranty.
For more information on coolant
temperature warning lamp ( Y page 156).GWarning!
Driving when your engine is overheated can
cause some fluids which may have leaked
into the engine compartment to catch fire.
You could be seriously burned.
Steam from an overheated engine can cause
serious burns which can occur just by
opening the engine hood. Stay away from the
engine if you see or hear steam coming from
it.
Stop the vehicle in a safe location away
from other traffic. Turn off the engine, get
out of the vehicle and do not stand near the
vehicle until the engine has cooled down.
Driving abroad
Abroad, there is an extensive smart service
network at your disposal. If you plan to
drive into areas which are not listed in the
index of your smart center directory, you
should request pertinent information from
an authorized smart center.

! Damage or consequential damage due to
retrofitting a device in the vehicle is
not covered by smart’s warranty.
If you install telephones or radio
transmitters in the vehicle you must have
such retrofits approved. smart approves
the installation of telephones and radio
devices if the work is done professionally
and the device is connected to a low-
reflection exterior antenna.
The transmitting power of the telephone or
radio must not exceed the following
maximum values.Frequency range

Radio transmitters can interfere with the
vehicle’s electronic system, endanger the
operating safety of the vehicle and thus
your own safety, if
R there is no external antenna
R the external antenna is not low-
reflection
R the external antenna is incorrectly
installed
Excessive electromagnetic radiation can
damage your health and that of others.
Using an external antenna addresses and
considers the concerns currently being
discussed in scientific circles about the
health hazards possibly posed by
electromagnetic fields.
Because of this, have the external antenna
installed exclusively at a qualified
specialist workshop which has the
necessary specialist knowledge and tools
to carry out the work required, e.g. at a
smart center. In particular, work relevant
to safety or on safety-related systems must
be carried out at a qualified specialist
workshop.
