Engine compartment

Working in the engine compart-

ment

Always be aware of the danger of injury and

scalding as well as the risk of accident or fire

when working in the engine compartment

(e.g. when checking and refilling fluids).

Always observe the warnings listed below

and follow all general safety precautions.

The vehicle's engine compartment is a po-

tentially hazardous area ››› .

WARNING

When work is done in the engine compart-

ment, injuries, burns, accidents and even

fires can occur.

●Turn off the engine, disconnect the igni-

tion e and apply the electronic parking

brake. Activate the automatic gearbox

parking lock (button P). Wait for the engine

to cool down.

●Never open the bonnet if you see steam

or drips of coolant being released from the

engine compartment. Wait until no steam

or coolant can be seen before opening the

bonnet.

●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).

●Avoid causing short-circuits in the elec-

trical system, particularly at the points

where the jump leads are attached

››› page 54. The battery could explode.

●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.

●Always make sure you have not left any

objects, such as cleaning cloths or tools, in

the engine compartment.

●If you have to work underneath the vehi-

cle, you must use suitable stands addition-

ally to support the vehicle, there is a risk of

accident!. A hydraulic jack is insufficient for

securing the vehicle and there is a risk of

injury.

●If any work has to be performed when the

engine is started or with the engine run-

ning, there is an additional, potentially fa-

tal, safety risk from the rotating parts, such

as the drive belts, alternator, radiator fan,

etc., and from the high-voltage ignition sys-

tem. You should also observe the following:

–Never touch the electrical wiring of the

ignition system.

–Ensure that jewellery, loose clothing

and long hair do not get trapped in ro-

tating engine parts. Danger of death.

Before starting any work remove jewel-

lery, tie back and cover hair, and wear

tight-fitting clothes.

–Never accelerate with a gear engaged

without taking the necessary precau-

tions. The vehicle could move, even if

the handbrake is applied. Danger of

death.

●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.
