PARKING THE VEHICLEProceed as follows:❒
stop the engine and engage the handbrake;
❒
engage a gear (on a slope, engage first gear if the vehi-
cle is parked uphill or reverse if it is parked downhill)
and leave the wheels steered.
Block the wheels with a wedge or a stone if the car is
parked on a steep slope.
Do not leave the key in the ignition switch at MAR to pre-
vent draining the battery. Always remove the key when
leaving the car. Never leave children unattended in the car.
Always remove the ignition key when leaving the car
and take it out with you.
HANDBRAKE fig. 116
The handbrake lever is located between the two front
seats. Pull the handbrake lever upwards until the car can-
not be moved. STOPPING THE ENGINE
Turn the ignition key to STOP while the engine is idling.
IMPORTANT After a taxing drive, you should allow the
engine to “catch its breath” before turning it off by let-
ting it idle to allow the temperature in the engine com-
partment to fall.
Never bump start the engine by pushing,
towing or coasting downhill. This could
cause a flow of fuel into the catalytic con-
verter and damage it beyond repair.A quick burst on the accelerator before
turning off the engine serves absolutely no
practical purpose, it wastes fuel and is dam-
aging especially to turbocharged engines.
EMERGENCY START-UP
If the instrument panel warning light
Y
stays on with fixed
light, the emergency start-up can be performed by using
the CODE card code (see chapter “In an emergency”).

Tyre side wall holes and punctures cannot
be repaired. Do not use the quick repair
kit if the tyre is damaged as the vehicle has run on
a flat tyre.
WARNING
If the wheel rim is damaged (bad groove
distortion causing air leakage) it cannot
be repaired. Do not remove the foreign body
(screws or nails) from the tyre.
WARNING
PLEASE REMEMBER THAT:
The sealing fluid of the quick tyre repair kit is effective with
external temperatures between −20 °C and +50 °C.
The sealing fluid has a limited life.
Never not operate the compressor for
longer than 20 consecutive minutes. Risk
of overheating. The quick repair kit is not suitable
for definitive repairs. Tyres may only be repaired
temporarily.
