which could cause the catalytic converter to  
overheat. There is a risk of material damage.  
Avoid repeated starting in quick succession.

starting the engine.  
General  
Some functions can only be operated when the  
drive-ready state is switched on.  
Safety information  
Switching on drive-ready state

tilation can allow harmful exhaust fumes to  
enter the vehicle. The exhaust fumes contain  
pollutants which are colourless and odour-  
less. In enclosed spaces, exhaust fumes can  
also build up outside the vehicle. There is a  
danger to life. Keep the exhaust pipe clear  
and ensure sufficient ventilation.
