Checking and refilling levels

Always be aware of the danger of injury

and scalding as well as the risk of accident

or fire when working in the engine com-

partment (e.g. when checking and refilling

fluids). Always observe the warnings listed

below and follow all general safety precau-

tions. The engine compartment of the ve-

hicle is a potentially hazardous area ››› .

WARNING

●Switch off the engine and activate the

hand brake. Place the selector lever in P.

Let the engine cool.

●Keep children away from the engine com-

partment.

●Never spill liquids used for vehicle opera-

tion on the engine compartment, as these

may catch fire (e.g. the antifreeze in cool-

ant).

●Take care not to cause short circuits in

the electrical system, especially when

working on the battery.

●If working inside the engine compart-

ment, remember that, even when the igni-

tion is switched off, the radiator fan may

start up automatically, and therefore there

is a risk of injury.

●Never cover the engine with additional

insulating materials such as a blanket. Risk

of fire!

●Do not unscrew the cap on the coolant

expansion tank when the engine is hot. The

cooling system is under pressure.

●Protect face, hands and arms by covering

the cap with a large, thick rag to protect

against escaping coolant and steam.

●If it is necessary to work in the engine

compartment while the engine is running,

the rotating components (for example,

poly-V belt, alternator, radiator fan) and

the high voltage ignition system are an ad-

ditional hazard.

●Observe the following additional warn-

ings if work on the fuel system or the elec-

trical system is necessary:

–Always disconnect the battery from the

on-board network.

–Do not smoke.

–Never work near naked flames.

–Always keep an approved fire extin-

guisher immediately available.

CAUTION

When topping up fluids make sure the cor-

rect fluid is put into the correct filler open-

ing, otherwise this can cause serious mal-

functions or engine damage.

For the sake of the environment

Inspect the ground underneath your vehi-

cle regularly so that any leaks are detected

at an early stage. If you find spots of oil or

other fluids in the area where it was parked,

have your vehicle inspected at the work-

shop.

Note

In right-hand drive vehicles* some brake

fluid reservoirs are on the other side of the

engine compartment ››› Fig. 247.

Opening and closing the bonnet

Read the additional information carefully

››› page 17

WARNING

●Never open the bonnet if you see steam

or drips of coolant being released from the

engine compartment. Failure to comply

could result in burns. Wait until no steam or

coolant can be seen before opening the

bonnet.

●For safety reasons the bonnet must al-

ways be completely closed when the vehi-

cle is moving. Therefore, after closing the

bonnet, always check that the locking ele-

ment is properly engaged. This is the case if

the bonnet is flush with the adjacent body

panels.

●Should you notice that the bonnet is not

safely secured when the vehicle is moving,

stop the vehicle immediately and close the

bonnet. Failure to follow this instruction

could result in an accident. »
