STORING THE CARIf the car is to be left inactive for longer than a
month, the following precautions should be
observed:
❒park the car in covered, dry and if possible
well-ventilated premises and slightly open
the windows;
❒engage a gear and check that the handbrake is
not engaged;
❒disconnect the negative battery terminal (for
versions with Start&Stop system refer to the
paragraph "Start&Stop system" in the chapter
"Knowing your car"); If the battery is not
disconnected the from the electrical system,
check its charge every thirty days;
❒clean and protect the painted parts using
protective wax;
❒clean and protect the shiny metal parts using
special compounds available commercially;
❒sprinkle talcum powder on the rubber
windscreen and rear window wiper blades and
lift them off the glass;
❒cover the car with a cloth or perforated plastic
sheet. Do not use sheets of non-perforated
plastic as they do not allow moisture on the car
body to evaporate;
❒inflate tyres to +0.5 bar above the standard
specified pressure and check it at intervals;
❒do not drain the engine cooling system.

SNOW CHAINSThe use of snow chains should be in compliance
with local regulations.
The snow chains may be applied only onto the
front wheel tyres (drive wheels).
Check the tension of the snow chains after the first
few metres have been driven.
IMPORTANT Snow chains cannot be fitted to the
space-saver wheel (for versions/markets, where
provided). If the front tyre has a puncture, replace
a rear wheel with the sapce-saver wheel and
move the rear wheel to the front axle. This way
with two normal drive wheels, snow chains can be
fitted to them to solve an emergency.
Keep your speed down when snow
chains are fitted; do not exceed 50
km/h. Avoid potholes, steps and
pavements and avoid driving for long
distances on roads not covered with snow to
prevent damaging the car and the roadbed.
