Check the condition of the wiper blades. You are responsible for their service life:
– they must remain clean: clean the blades, windscreen and rear screen regularly with soapy water;
– do not use them when the wind- screen or rear screen are dry;
– free them from the windscreen or rear screen when they have not been used for a long time.In all cases, replace them as soon as they begin to lose efficiency: ap-
proximately once a year.Before using the rear wiper, check that no object obstructs the travel of the blade.Do not use the wiper arm to open or close the tailgate.
Before any action on the windscreen (washing the vehicle, de-icing, cleaning the windscreen, etc.) return
stalk 1 to the park position.
Risk of injury or damage.
When working in the engine compartment, ensure that the windscreen wiper stalk is in the park position.
Risk of injury.

for vehicles with a manual gearbox or position P for vehicles with an au- tomatic gearbox.
Make sure that the hand- brake is properly released when driving (red indicator light off), otherwise over- heating may occur.
An impact to the under- side of the vehicle while manoeuvring (e.g.: strik- ing a post, raised kerb or other street furniture) may result in
damage to the vehicle (e.g.: defor- mation of an axle).
To avoid any risk of accident, have your vehicle checked by an ap- proved Dealer.

– Brake as little as possible by suitably anticipating an obstacle or bend and then simply releasing the accelerator pedal.
– Avoid sudden acceleration.
– Do not overrev the engine in the in
- termediate gears.
Always use the highest gear possi- ble without labouring the engine.
On versions with an automatic trans- mission, it is preferable to keep the
gear lever in position D.
– Do not try to maintain the same
speed up a hill, accelerate no more than you would on level roads. Keep your foot in the same position on the accelerator pedal.
– Double declutching and accelerating
before switching off the engine are unnecessary in modern vehicles.
– Bad weather, flooded roads.
Do not drive through floods if the depth of water is above the lower edge of the wheel rims.
Exhaust gas monitoring
system
The exhaust gas monitoring system will detect any operating faults in the vehicle’s antipollution system.
If this system malfunctions, toxic sub- stances may be released into the at- mosphere or damage may occur.
ÄThis warning light on the in- strument panel will indicate if there are any faults in the system:This lights up when the ignition is switched on and goes out when the engine is started.
– If it lights up continuously, consult
your approved dealer as soon as possible;
– if it flashes, reduce the engine speed
until the light stops flashing. Contact your approved dealer as soon as possible.
Driving
– Drive carefully for the first few miles until the engine reaches its normal operating temperature, rather than let it warm up while the vehicle is sta- tionary.
– Speed is expensive.
– Sporty driving uses a lot of fuel: drive
with a light right foot.
ADVICE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (2/3)
