Correct and safe

Introductory information on correct use

Read this Owner’s Manual carefully, as proceeding in accordance with this manual is a prerequisite for the correct use of the vehicle. This Owner’s Manual should therefore always be in the vehicle.
When using the vehicle, the generally binding legal provisions that are specific to the country must be observed. Such as those for transporting children, switching off airbags, using tyres, road traffic and the like.
Do not exceed the maximum permissible weights and loads.
Do not exceed the maximum permissible roof load.
Use the specified fuel and operating fluids.
Drive on roads that correspond to the technical vehicle parameters. Obstacles that exceed the ground clearance of the vehicle can damage the vehicle when driving over them.
Care must be taken during operations related to operation, maintenance and self-help to avoid damage to the vehicle or injury. If necessary, seek the help of a specialist company.
All work on the vehicle’s safety systems e.g. on the seatbelts or the airbag system, may only be carried out by a specialist garage.
When using the accessories, observe the instructions in the operating instructions of the accessories manufacturer. These include child seats, roof racks, compressors etc.
Observe the service intervals.

New vehicle or new parts

New vehicle – Running in the engine
Driving style during the first 1500 km determines the quality of the engine run-in process.

During the first 1000 km, rev the engine to max. 3/4 of the highest permissible engine speed and avoid using a trailer.
Over the next 500 km, the engine speed can be slowly increased.

Depending on driving style and operating conditions, the engine consumes some oil, up to 0.5 l/1000 km. Consumption may be higher over the next 5000 km.

New brake pads
New brake pads do not provide the optimum braking effect during the first 200 km, they have to be worn in first. Therefore, drive very carefully.
New tyres
New tyres do not have optimum grip for the first 500 km. Therefore, drive very carefully.

Regular checks

What should be taken into account before driving?
A vehicle with technical defects can increase the risk of accidents and injuries.
Eliminate any defects before driving. If required, seek the help of a specialised garage.
Pay special attention to the following points.

Is the tyre undamaged?
Is the tyre tread sufficient?
Is the tyre pressure sufficient?
Do the headlamps, brake and turn signals work?
Is the windscreen in good condition?
Is the engine oil, brake fluid and coolant level OK?
Is the air intake in the engine compartment free from obstruction?
Are the air outlet nozzles or air intake in front of the windscreen free from obstruction?
Are the windscreen wiper and washer system and windscreen wiper blades functional?
Is the windscreen washer fluid level sufficient?
Are the windscreen wiper blades in good condition?
Are all seatbelt system components in good working order? Are the seatbelts clean and have the buckles been unclogged?
Is the spoiler working properly?
Are parts and components of the vehicle still visibly attached?
Are there no oil stains or other operating fluids under the vehicle?

No improper vehicle adjustments

Improper modifications can cause interference and affect safety-related functions and other functions of the vehicle.

Adjustments and technical modifications to the vehicle should only be carried out by a specialist garage.
Do not cover the engine with additional insulation materials, e.g. a blanket

Keeping sensors and cameras in working order

Some functions of your vehicle are supported by sensors and cameras inside and outside the vehicle.
The rear-mounted accessories, e.g. bike rack, may affect system and camera functionality.

Do not cover or put a sticker over the sensors and cameras and keep them clean.
If there is damage suspected to the sensors or cameras, seek the help of a specialist garage.

Engine compartment

Before opening the engine compartment flap

Risk of scalding! Do not open the engine compartment flap if steam or coolant comes out of the engine compartment.

Stop the engine and allow it to cool.
Open the driver door

When working in the engine compartment

Keep children away from the engine compartment.
Do not touch the radiator fan. The radiator fan can turn itself on, even when the ignition is off.
Do not touch electrical cables. Avoid short circuits in the electrical system, especially on the vehicle battery.
Do not smoke near the vicinity of the engine and refrain from handling open flames or sparks.
If you need to work in the engine compartment with the engine running, be mindful of rotating engine parts and electrical equipment.
Do not leave any objects in the engine compartment.

Handling operating fluids

Your vehicle needs various fuels to operate that can affect health or the environment when they are emitted. These include fuel, oils, battery acid, coolant and brake fluid or AdBlue® .

Only use operating fluids outdoors or in well-ventilated areas. If required, wear protective equipment.
Do not use or check operating fluids with the engine running.
In the event of contact with operating fluids, wash affected areas with warm water. If required, seek medical help.
The leaked engine oil in the engine compartment can cause a fire, so wipe it off with a cloth.
Store soiled cloths in a well-ventilated area until disposal. Cloths with residues of engine oil can ignite and cause a fire.

Vehicle battery

Handling the vehicle battery
Battery acid is highly corrosive. Improper handling of the vehicle battery can cause an explosion, fire, chemical burns or poisoning!

When handling the vehicle battery, eye and skin protection must be worn.
Do not tilt the vehicle battery, as it may leak battery acid.
If battery acid comes into contact with skin, wash the affected areas with water for a few minutes.
Get medical help without delay.
Do not charge a frozen or thawed vehicle battery.
Replace a frozen vehicle battery.
Do not use a damaged vehicle battery.
Short circuit! Do not connect the battery terminals.
