Washer fluid

Washer fluid antifreeze is flammable. For
this reason, keep it away from ignition

sources and store only in the closed original
container out of reach of children. Otherwise,
there is the danger of bodily injury. Always
observe the instructions for use provided on the
containers.

<

Filler neck for washer fluid

Only add washer fluid with the engine
cooled down to exclude contact with hot

engine components. Otherwise there is a dan-
ger of fire and to personal safety if the fluid is
spilled.

<

All washer nozzles are supplied from one reser-
voir.
Fill with water and – if required – with a washer
antifreeze, according to manufacturer's recom-
mendations.

In order to maintain the mixture ratio, mix
the washer fluid before filling.

Cruise control*

The concept

The cruise control with a braking function is
available for use at speeds of approx. 20 mph/
30 km/h and higher. The vehicle stores and
maintains the speed that you set using the lever
mounted on the steering column. To keep the
specified speed constant, the system brakes if
the engine braking effect is not sufficient on a
downhill grade.

Do not use the cruise control under driv-
ing conditions that do not permit a con-

stant speed, e.g. when driving on winding
roads, in heavy traffic or in poor road conditions
such as snow, rain, ice, and loose road surface.
Otherwise you could lose control of the vehicle
and cause an accident.
