WARNING
If the warning lamps are ignored, the vehicle
may
stall in traffic, or may cause accidents
and severe injuries.
●
Never ignore the warning lamps.
●
Stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible.
●
Park the vehicle away from traffic and ensure that there are no highly flammable materials under the vehicle that could come into
contact with the exhaust system (e.g. dry
grass, fuel).
●
A faulty vehicle represents a risk of accident for the driver and for other road users. If
necessary, switch on the hazard warning
lamps and put out the warning triangle to advise other drivers.
●
Before opening the bonnet, switch off the
engine and allow it to cool.
●
In any vehicle, the engine compartment is a
hazardous area and could cause severe injuries ››› page 184.
