General instructions
The "Maintenance" chapter de-
scribes work involving the check-
ing and replacement of wear
parts that can be performed with
a minimum of effort.
If special tightening torques are
to be taken into account for
assembly, these are listed. An
overview of all required tightening
torques is contained in the

for your vehicle on DVD, which
you can obtain from your
