brake fluid
Level 1
It is normal for the level to drop as the brake shoes become worn, but it must never drop lower than the “MINI" warn- ing line.
If you wish to check the disc and drum wear yourself, you should obtain the document explaining the checking pro- cedure from the manufacturer ’s net- work or web site.
Topping up
After any operation on the hydraulic cir- cuit, a specialist must replace the brake fluid.
Only use fluids approved by our Technical Department (and taken from a sealed container).
Replacement interval
Refer to the Maintenance Service Booklet for your vehicle.
Brake fluid level
The level should be read with the engine switched off and on level ground.
This should be checked frequently, and immediately if you notice even the slightest loss in braking efficiency.
LEVELS (2/3)

The engine may be hot when carrying out opera- tions in close proximity. In addition, the engine cooling fan can come on at any moment.
Risk of injury.
Consult your approved dealer at once if you notice an abnormal or repeated drop in any of the fluid levels.

– Before going through a roller type car wash, return the windscreen wiper stalk to the Park position (refer to the information on the “Windscreen wash/wipe” in Section 1). Check the mounting of external accessories, additional lights and mirrors, and ensure that the wiper blades are se- cured with adhesive tape.
Remove the radio aerial mast if your vehicle is fitted with this equipment.
Remember to remove the tape and refit the antenna after washing.
– Spray mechanical components,
hinges, etc. with products approved by our Technical Department to protect them after they have been cleaned.
BODyWORK MAINTENANCE (2/2)
We have selected special products to care for your vehicle and you can obtain these from the manufactur- er’s accessory outlets.
– Observe the vehicle stopping dis- tances when driving on gravelled surfaces to prevent paint damage.
– Repair, or have repaired quickly,
areas where the paint has been dam- aged, to prevent corrosion spread- ing.
– Remember to visit the body shop
periodically if your vehicle has an anti-corrosion warranty. Refer to the Maintenance Service Booklet.
– Respect local regulations about
washing vehicles (e.g. do not wash your vehicle on a public highway).
you should
– Wash your car frequently, with the engine off, with cleaning products recommended by our Technical Department (never use abrasive products) and be sure to jet-rinse off:
– spots of tree resin and industrial
grime;
–
bird droppings, which cause a chemical reaction with the paint that rapidly discolours paint- work and may even cause the paint to peel off; Wash the vehicle immediately to remove these marks since it is impossible to remove them by polishing;
– salt, particularly in the wheel
arches and underneath the body after driving in areas where the roads have been gritted;
– mud in the wheel arches and un
- derneath the body which form damp patches.

Note: if the tool kit does not lock in
place, check the tightness of nut 5 and
the correct positioning of the handle 6.
Special features
The emergency spare wheel holder should always be present when you are driving even when the wheel itself is not present: risk of water entering the ve- hicle.
If you have to release it when it is not holding a wheel, push the centre of the wheel holder towards the ground while pressing handle 6.
To lock the system
– Press nut 5 screwing it on fully until it locks in place. Several turns will be necessary. This operation is es- sential to ensure that the wheel is secure;
– return handle
6 to its original posi- tion;
– clip the tool kit;
– replace the cover, then lower it and
replace the luggage compartment carpet.
EMERGENCY SPARE WHEEL (3/4)
The system should only be used with the original ve- hicle wheels or identical wheels.
It is essential to lock the nut so that the wheel is held se- curely.

If the emergency spare wheel has been stored for several years, have it checked by your Dealer to ensure that it is safe to use.
Vehicle fitted with an emergency spare wheel that is smaller than the oth\
er wheels.
– Never fit more than one emergency spare wheel to the same vehicle.
– When this is fitted to the vehicle, which must only be a temporary measure, the driving speed must not exceed the speed
indicated on the label on the wheel.
– Replace the emergency spare wheel as soon as possible with a wheel with the same dimensions as the original.
– Fitting an emergency spare wheel may alter the way the vehicle usually runs. Avoid sudden acceleration or deceleration and
reduce your speed when cornering.
– Fitting the damaged wheel into the emergency spare wheel housing will reduce the vehicle’s ground clearance: avoid driv
- ing over any obstacles.
– If you need to use snow chains, fit the emergency spare wheel to the rear axle and check the tyre pressure.

Tyre inflation kit
TYRE PRESSURE KIT (1/3)
AB
Do not attempt to use the inflation kit if the tyre has been damaged as a result of driving with a puncture.
You should therefore carefully check the condition of the tyre sidewalls before any operation.
Driving with underinflated, flat or punctured tyres can be dangerous and may make the tyre impossible to repair.
This repair is temporary
A tyre which has been punctured should always be inspected (and repaired, where possible) by a spe- cialist.
When taking a tyre which has been repaired using this kit to be replaced, you must inform the specialist.
When driving, vibration may be felt due to the presence of the repair product injected into the tyre.
The kit is only approved for inflating the tyres of the ve- hicle originally equipped with the kit.
It must never be used to inflate the tyres of another vehicle, or any other inflatable object (rubber ring, rubber boat, etc.).
Avoid spillage on skin when hand- ling the repair liquid bottle. If drop- lets do leak out, rinse them off with plenty of water.
Keep the repair kit away from chil- dren.
Do not dispose of the empty bottle in the countryside. Return it to your approved dealer or to a recycling or- ganisation.
The bottle has a limited service life which is indicated on its label. Check the expiry date.
Contact an approved dealer to re- place the inflation tube and repair product bottle.
The kit repairs tyres when
tread A has been dam- aged by objects smaller than 4 mm. It cannot repair all types of puncture, such as cuts more than 4 mm, or cuts in the tyre
sidewall B.
Ensure also that the wheel rim is in good condition.

TYRE PRESSURE KIT (3/3)
– adjust the pressure: to increase it, continue inflation with the kit, to
reduce it, press button 7 located on the inflation adapter.
If the correct pressure cannot be achieved, repair is impossible. Do not drive the vehicle. Consult an ap- proved dealer.
Once the tyre is correctly inflated, remove the kit: slowly unscrew the in-
flation adapter 6 to prevent any repair product from escaping and screw the hose to the bottle opening to prevent the product from escaping.
Affix the driving recommendation label to the dashboard where it can easily be seen by the driver;
Put the kit away.
Start driving immediately, and after 6 miles (10 kilometres) or 10 minutes of driving, stop to check the tyre pressure. If it is above 1.3 bar, adjust it to the rec- ommended pressure (refer to the infor- mation on “Tyre pressures”), otherwise contact an approved dealer: repair is not possible.
Precautions when using the
kit
The kit should not be operated for more than 15 consecutive minutes.
Following repair with the kit, do not travel further than 120 miles (200 km). In addi- tion, reduce your speed and under no circumstances exceed 48 mph (80 km/h). The sticker, which you must affix in a prominent posi- tion on the dashboard, reminds you of this.
Depending on the country or local legislation, a tyre repaired with the
inflation kit will need to be replaced.

Nothing should be placed around the driver ’s feet as such objects may slide under the pedals during
sudden braking manoeuvres and obstruct their use.6
Please be aware that a poorly tightened or miss- ing valve cap can make the tyres less airtight and may lead to pressure loss.
Always use valve caps identical to those fitted originally and tighten them fully.
