Have the high-voltage on-board electri‐
cal system checked at a qualified spe‐
cialist workshop.
The components of the vehicle's high-voltage
electrical system are marked with yellow warn‐
ing stickers. The cables of the vehicle's high-volt‐
age electrical system are orange in color.
Vehicles with hybrid systems generate signifi‐
cantly less noise when stationary and when
being driven than vehicles with combustion
engines.
When driving in electric mode, the vehicle may
not be heard by other road users due to the sig‐
nificantly reduced noise generated when driving
and when at a standstill.
It is for this reason that the vehicle is equipped
with a sound generator which serves as an
acoustic vehicle warning system (AVAS).
