System Protection

If the coolant or the engine oil overheat during operation, certain vehicle functions are influenced to the effect that more energy is available to the engine cooling system.

These measures are divided over two operating modes:

• Component protection
  • Coolant temperature between 117°C/242°F and 124°C/255°F
  • Engine oil temperature between 150°C/300°F and 157°C/314°F
  • Result: The output of the air conditioning system (up to 100%) and of the engine is reduced
• Emergency
  • Coolant temperature between 125°C/257°F and 129°C/264°F
  • Engine oil temperature between 158°C/316°F and 163°C/325°F
  • Result: The power output of the engine is reduced (up to 90%)
