ROOF RACK/SKI RACK
To fit the roof/ski rack, with provision for versions H1
and H2, use the pins A provided on the edges of the
roof fig. 133.
Long wheelbase vehicles are equipped with 8 pins; short
or medium wheelbase vehicles are equipped with 6 pins;
vehicles with extra-long wheelbases are equipped with
10 pins.
Only carry out these operations with
the vehicle stationary.
WARNING
The incorrect positioning of the bonnet
stay could cause the bonnet to fall
suddenly.
WARNING
Check that the attachment fixing screws
are tight after a few kilometres.

CONTAINING RUNNING COSTS
Here are some suggestions which may help you to keep
the running costs of your vehicle down and lower the
amount of toxic emissions released into the
atmosphere.
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
Vehicle maintenance
Have checks and adjustments carried out in accordance
with the “Scheduled Servicing Plan”.
Tyres
Check the pressure of the tyres routinely at an interval
of no more than 4 weeks: if the pressure is too low,
consumption levels increase as resistance to rolling is
higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with an overloaded boot. The weight of
the vehicle (especially when driving in town) and its
geometry greatly affect fuel consumption and stability.
Roof rack/ski rack
Remove the roof rack or the ski rack from the roof
after use. These accessories decrease aerodynamic
penetration of the vehicle and have a negative effect on
fuel consumption. It is better to use a trailer, particularly
for transporting bulky objects. In addition to these general precautions, some simple
precautions can improve driving safety, travelling
comfort and vehicle durability:
❒distribute the load evenly over the floor: if it is
necessary to concentrate it in a single area, choose
an area mid-way between both axles;
❒remember that the lower the load, the lower the
vehicle’s centre of gravity, making for a safer drive:
therefore always position the heaviest goods lower
down;
❒lastly, remember that the vehicle’s dynamic
behaviour is affected by the weight transported:
in particular, the stopping distances are longer,
especially at high speed.
If you wish to carry petrol in a reserve
tank, observe the legal restrictions and
only use a tank that is type approved and
properly secured to the load anchorage
eyebolts. However, the risk of fire in the event
of an accident increases.

FUEL CONSUMPTION
The fuel consumption figures given in the table below are determined on the basis of the homologation tests set down by
specific European Directives. The procedures below are followed for measuring consumption:
urban cycle: cold starting followed by driving that simulates urban use of the vehicle; extra-urban cycle: frequent
accelerations in all gears, simulating extra-urban use of the vehicle: speed varies between 0 and 120 km/h;
mixed cycle: is calculated weighing about 37% of urban cycle consumption and about 63% of extra-urban consumption.
IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic situations, weather conditions, driving style, general conditions of the vehicle, trim
level/equipment/accessories, climate control system, vehicle load, roof rack, other situations that affect air drag may lead to
different fuel consumption levels than those measured.
