Starting the vehicle in emergency operation mode
WARNING Risk of accident and injury due to children left unattended in the vehicle
If children are left unattended in the vehicle, they could:
  • open doors, thereby endangering other persons or road users.

  • get out of the vehicle and be hit by oncoming traffic.

  • operate vehicle equipment and become trapped, for example.

In addition, children could also set the vehicle in motion, for example, by:
  • releasing the parking brake.

  • starting the engine.

Never leave children and animals unattended in the vehicle.

Combustion engines emit poisonous exhaust gases such as carbon monoxide. Inhaling these exhaust gases is hazardous to health and can lead to poisoning.

Never leave the engine running in an enclosed space without sufficient ventilation.
WARNING Risk of fire caused by flammable material on the exhaust system

Flammable materials brought in by either animals or environmental influences may ignite if they come into contact with hot parts of the engine or exhaust system.

Therefore, check regularly that there are no flammable materials in the engine compartment or on the exhaust system.
