(see manufacturer’s instructions).
6. Locate the slots on the ends of the bars onto the two LATCH
loops, then push the seat asse mbly rearwards until the bars
are positively engaged (a trigger operates to lock the
attachment bars onto the loops). 7. Slide the seat rearwards along the legs until it is locked firmly
against the vehicle seat back. Confirm that it is securely
locked in position.
8. Secure a forward-facing ch ild seat to the top tether
anchorage.

4-4 On the Road
Engine Temperature (E)
Drive at moderate road and engine
speeds until normal operating
temperature is reached. This is indicated
when the pointer is between the
blue (cold) segment and the red (hot)
segment.
The engine operating temperature will
vary with changes in weather and engine
load. The engine temperature may rise in
some circumstances, such as:
• Idling for long periods in slow moving traffic.
• Driving up a long hill in hot weather.
• Driving slowly or stopping after driving at high speed.
• Towing a trailer or caravan.!WARNING:
1. The radiator cooling fans may continue to run after the ignition
has been switched off but will
automatically switch off when the
engine has cooled sufficiently.
2. It is unsafe to run the engine in an overheated condition.
3. Do not remove the coolant reservoir filler cap while the
engine is hot. If it is essential, then
protect your hands against
escaping steam. SLOWLY turn the
cap anti-clockwise to allow the
steam pressure to escape
completely before removing the
cap. Should the pointer move into the red
segment (
H) of the coolant gauge, stop
the vehicle as soon as it is safely possible,
turn off the engine and open the hood to
allow the engine to cool.
