A few driving recommendations
Observe the driving regulations at all times and remain   vigilant   whatever   the   traffic   conditions.

  close   attention   to   the   traffic   and   keep   your  
h

ands   on   the   wheel   so   that   you   are   ready   to  
r

eact   at   any   time   to   any   eventuality.
On
  a   long   journey,   a   break   every   two   hours   is  
s

trongly
 re
commended.
In
  difficult   weather,   drive   smoothly,   anticipate  
t

he   need   to   brake   and   increase   the   distance  
f

rom   other   vehicles.
Driving on flooded roads
We strongly advise against driving on flooded roads,   as   this   could   cause   serious   damage

e

xceed   15   cm,   taking   account   of   waves  
t

-  
d
eactivate   the   Stop   &   Start   system,
-  
d
rive   as   slowly   as   possible   without  
s

10 km/h),
-  d o   not   stop   and   do   not   switch   off   the  
e

ngine.
On
  leaving   the   flooded   road,   as   soon   as  
c

ircumstances   allow,   make   several   light   brake  
a

pplications   to   dry   the   brake   discs   and   pads.
If
  in   doubt   on   the   state   of   your   vehicle,   contact  
a
