CLEANING Clean     
16 Clean the threaded holes as well as sealing surfaces on cylinder head (11) and cylinder crankcase. NOTES Do not use sharp-edged tools or abrasive paper. Otherwise, damage to the sealing surfaces and then engine and environmental damage may result.
NOTES Mechanically processing or cleaning the sealing surfaces, spot grinding with abrasive paper or other abrasive materials to remove seal residue is not permitted.
Even the smallest amounts of aluminum oxide particles, grinding particles or wear debris entering the oil reservoir, the bearing points or the combustion chambers will cause damage and thus result in damage to the engine/major assemblies.
IMPORTANT The sealing surfaces must feel even after treatment. The sealing surfaces need not be metallic bright; thin layers of firmly adhering silicone sealant may remain.
IMPORTANT Only cleaning with the approved adhesive and sealant remover is permitted.
IMPORTANT Observe processing information from manufacturer.

Notes on application of flange sealants to seal major assemblies
NOTES Do not rework the cylinder head (11) or crankcase (surface grinding). The cylinder head (11)/crankcase may otherwise be destroyed because the machining tolerances are exceeded.
IMPORTANT Sealing surfaces between cylinder crankcase and cylinder head (11) are provided with an 0.8 mm thick silicone layer during series production.
IMPORTANT During repair installation, apply sealant only if there are shrink holes in the sealing area. Process the sealant within 10 min.

Check, correct engine oil level.   AP18.00-P-1812A
WARNING Risk of burn injuries  , suffocation and poisoning when working on the exhaust system and the components connected to it. Risk of suffocation and risk of poisoning caused by inhalation of gaseous and solid components of the exhaust. Risk of poisoning  caused by skin contact with solid components of the exhaust. Wear protective clothing and safety glasses. Use the extraction system. Move people out of the danger zone. AS49.00-Z-0001-01A
WARNING Risk of accident  from vehicle starting off by itself when engine running. Risk of injury  (bruises and burns) resulting from working on the engine while it is being started or when it is running. Secure vehicle to prevent it from starting off by itself. Wear closed and snug-fitting work clothes. Do not touch hot or rotating parts. AS00.00-Z-0005-01A
