WARNING When doing any repair work, especially in the engine compartment, pay attention to the following due to the cramped conditions: |
t
| Route all the various lines (e.g. for fuel, hydraulics, activated charcoal filter system, coolant and refrigerant, brake fluid and vacuum) and electrical wiring in their original positions. |
t
| Ensure that there is sufficient clearance to all moving or hot components. |
|
Note the following if testers and measuring instruments have to be used during a road test: |
t
| Test and measuring instruments must always be secured to rear seat and operated by a second person from this location. |
t
| If test and measuring instruments are operated from front passenger seat and the vehicle is involved in an accident, there is a possibility that the person sitting in this seat may receive serious injuries when the airbag is triggered. |
To prevent injuries to persons and/or destruction of the injection and glow plug system, the following must be noted: |
t
| The ignition must be switched off before connecting or disconnecting injection or glow plug system wiring or tester cables. |
t
| If the engine is to be turned at starter speed, without starting, e.g. when checking compressions, disconnect unit injector connector on cylinder head. |
t
| Before disconnecting battery, obtain radio code for radios with anti-theft coding. |
t
| Disconnecting and connecting the battery must only be done with the ignition switched off, as otherwise the control unit for diesel direction injection system could become damaged. |
