Operation Manual

193Driving and operation
In some cases, faults can be eliminated by
switching off the engine and restarting. If
the control light comes on again when the
engine is running, contact a workshop to
eliminate the cause of the fault.
If it illuminates briefly, but does not recur, it
is of no significance.
If A illuminates, this may also mean water
in the diesel fuel filter in the engines
1)
Z19DTL, Z19DT and Z19DTH. Where
necessary, have the fuel filter inspected by
a workshop for any residual water.
If it flashes after the ignition is switched
on, there is a fault in the immobiliser
system. The engine cannot be started.
See page 27.
Exhaust gases
During the first drive smoke may develop
because of wax and oil evaporating on the
exhaust system. Park the vehicle in the
open for a while after the first drive and
avoid inhaling the fumes.

9 Warning
Engine exhaust gases contain poisonous
carbon monoxide, which is colourless and
odourless and could be fatal if inhaled.
If exhaust gases penetrate the vehicle
interior, open a window and contact a
workshop.
Avoid driving with an open luggage
compartment. Otherwise, exhaust gases
could penetrate the interior.
