Warning!
When doing any repair work, especially in the engine compartment, pay attention to the following due to the cramped conditions:
  • ◆ Route all the various lines (e.g. for fuel, hydraulics, activated charcoal filter system, coolant, refrigerant, brake fluid and vacuum pipes and hoses) and electrical wiring so that the original positions are restored.
  • ◆ Ensure sufficient clearance to all moving or hot components.

Observe following if test and measuring instruments are required during a test drive:

  • ◆ Test and measuring instruments must be secured to rear seat and operated by a 2nd person from this location.
  • If test and measuring instruments are operated from front passenger's 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.
