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 187.
