To prevent injuries to persons and/or damage to the fuel injection and ignition system, the following must be noted:
t  Do not touch or remove the ignition cables with the engine running or idling.
t  Always switch off the ignition before disconnecting or reconnecting injection or ignition system wiring or tester cables.
  Caution
When doing any repair work, especially in the engine compartment, pay attention to the following due to the cramped conditions:
All conduits (for example for fuel, hydraulics, carbon filter, liquid cooler and cooling agent, brake fluid, low pressure) and the electric cables must be placed in such a way that they return to their original position.
Ensure sufficient clearance for all moving or hot components.
