For safety reasons, the bon-
net must always be perfect-
ly closed while travelling. Make sure
that the bonnet is perfectly closed
and that the lock is engaged. If you
discover during travel that the lock
is not fully engaged, stop immediate-
ly and close the bonnet in the correct
manner.
WARNING
If the supporting rod is not
positioned correctly, the
bonnet may fall violently.
WARNING
Perform these operations on-
ly when the car is stationary.

After travelling for a short
distance, check that the fas-
tening screws are correctly tightened.
WARNING
Strictly adhere to the laws in
force concerning maximum
clearance.
Distribute the load evenly
and, when driving, bear in
mind the increased sensitivity of the
vehicle to side wind.
WARNING
Never exceed the permitted
load (see “Technical data”
section).

STARTING
AND DRIVING
Roof rack/ski rack
Remove the roof rack or ski rack from the
roof after use. These accessories decrease
aerodynamic penetration and have a neg-
ative effect on fuel consumption. It is bet-
ter to use a trailer to transport particu-
larly bulky objects.
Electrical devices
Use electrical devices only for the amount
of time needed. The heated rear window,
auxiliary headlights, windscreen wipers and
fan heater use up a considerable amount
of current, causing increased fuel con-
sumption (up to +25% in the urban cycle).
Air conditioning
Air conditioning leads to higher fuel con-
sumption (on average up to +20%). If the
temperature outside is not too extreme,
try and use the air vents.
Spoilers
The use of non-certified spoilers may ad-
versely affect aerodynamics and fuel con-
sumption. DRIVING STYLE
Starting
Do not warm up the engine at low or high
revs when the vehicle is stationary; this
causes the engine to warm up more slow-
ly, thereby increasing fuel consumption
and emissions. It is advisable to set off im-
mediately and slowly, avoiding high revs:
this allows the engine to warm up more
quickly.
Unnecessary actions
Avoid revving up when stationary at traf-
fic lights or before stopping the engine.
The latter action, like double declutching,
is entirely unnecessary and causes in-
creased fuel consumption and pollution.
Gear selection
Use a higher gear as soon as traffic and
road conditions allow. Using a low gear
for faster acceleration will increase fuel
consumption.
In the same way, improper use of a high
gear increases fuel consumption, emissions
and engine wear.SAVING FUEL
Here are some suggestions which may
help you to save fuel and reduce the
amount of toxic emissions released into
the atmosphere.
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
Car maintenance
Have checks and adjustments carried out
in accordance with the “Scheduled Service
Plan”.
Tyres
Check the tyre pressure at least once
every 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 car (especially when dri-
ving in town) and its arrangement greatly
affect fuel consumption and stability.

❒extra-urban cycle: driving that simulates
using the vehicle out of town with fre-
quent acceleration in all gears; the
speed varies from 0 to 120 km/h;
❒combined consumption: this is calcu-
lated with a weighting of about 37% ur-
ban cycle consumption and about 63%
extra-urban 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
car; IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic
situations, weather conditions, driving
style, general state of the car, trim lev-
el/equipment/accessories, load, climate
control system, roof rack, and other sit-
uations that affect how the car moves
through the air may lead to different fuel
consumption levels than those measured.
Fuel consumption according to the current European directive (litres / \
100 km)
