▷ Close all windows and the glass sunroof.

▷ Greatly increase the air flow from the vents.

▷ Drive moderately.

Hot exhaust system

High temperatures are generated in the

exhaust system.

Do not remove the heat shields installed and

never apply undercoating to them. Make sure

that flammable materials, e. g. hay, leaves,

grass, etc. do not come in contact with the hot

exhaust system while driving, while in idle po‐

sition mode, or when parked. Such contact

could lead to a fire, resulting in an increased

risk of serious personal injury as well as prop‐

erty damage.

Do not touch hot exhaust pipes; otherwise,

there is a danger of getting burned.◀

Diesel particulate filter

The diesel particulate filter collects soot parti‐

cles and burns them periodically at high tem‐

peratures.

During several minutes of cleaning the follow‐

ing may occur:

▷ Temporarily, the engine may run less

smoothly.

▷ Noises and a slight amount of smoke com‐

ing from the exhaust until shortly after the

engine is shut down.

▷ A somewhat higher engine speed is neces‐

sary to reach usual performance.

Mobile communication devices in the

vehicle

Mobile communication devices in the ve‐

hicle

It is not recommended to use mobile phones,

such as mobile phones, in the vehicle interior

without a direct connection to an external aer‐

ial. Otherwise, the vehicle's electronics and

mobile communication devices can interfere

with each other. In addition, there is no assur‐

ance that the radiation generated during trans‐

mission will be conducted away from the vehi‐

cle interior.◀

Hydroplaning

When driving on wet or slushy roads, re‐

duce your speed to prevent hydroplaning.◀

On wet or slushy roads, a wedge of water can

form between the tires and road surface.

This phenomenon is referred to as hydroplan‐

ing. It is characterized by a partial or complete

loss of contact between the tires and the road

surface, ultimately undermining your ability to

steer and brake the vehicle.

Driving through water

Observe water level and speed

Do not exceed the maximum water level

and maximum speed; otherwise, the vehicle's

engine, the electrical systems and the trans‐

mission may be damaged.◀

Drive though calm water only and only if it is

not deeper than 9.8 inches/25 cm and at this

height, no faster than walking speed, up to

3 mph/5 km/h.

Braking safely

Your vehicle is equipped with ABS as a stand‐

ard feature.

Applying the brakes fully is the most effective

way of braking in situations needed.

Steering is still responsive. You can still avoid

any obstacles with a minimum of steering ef‐

fort.

Pulsation of the brake pedal and sounds from

the hydraulic circuits indicate that ABS is in its

active mode.

In certain braking situations, the perforated

brake discs can cause functional problems.
