SNOW CHAINS
Use of snow chains should be in compli-
ance with local regulations.
The snow chains may be applied only to
the front wheel tyres (drive wheels).
Check the tension of the chains after the
first few metres have been driven.
PROLONGED VEHICLE
INACTIVITY
If the vehicle needs to be stopped for longer
than one month, the following precautions
must be taken:
❒park the vehicle indoors in a dry and, pos-
sibly, well-ventilated place;
❒engage a gear and check that the hand-
brake is not engaged;
❒disconnect the negative terminal of the
battery and check charge (see paragraph
“Battery” in section “Maintenance and
care”);
❒clean and protect the painted parts using
protective wax;❒clean and protect the shiny metal parts
using special compounds readily available;
❒sprinkle talcum powder on the rubber
windscreen and rear window wiper
blades and lift them off the glass;
❒slightly open the windows;
❒cover the vehicle with a piece of fabric or
perforated plastic sheet; do not use com-
pact plastic tarpaulins, which prevent hu-
midity from evaporating from the surface
of the vehicle;
❒inflate tyres to a pressure of +0.5 bar
above the normal specified pressure and
check it at intervals;
❒do not drain the engine cooling system. Keep your speed down when
snow chains are fitted. Do not
exceed 50 km/h. Avoid pot-
holes, steps and pavements
and also avoid driving long distances on
roads not covered with snow in order
to prevent damaging the vehicle and
the roadbed.
