on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the label in the door aper ture, driver's side.Carry out this check in par ticular:- before a long journey,- at each change of season,- after a long period out of use. Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres onany trailer or caravan.

No remote control can operate when the key is in the ignition switch, even when the ignitionis switched off, except for reinitialisation.

Driving with the doors locked may make access to the passenger compar tment by the emergency ser vices more difficult in an emergency.However, the vehicle unlocks automatically in the event of a serious impact causing airbagdeployment.
As a safety precaution, never leave children alone in the vehicle, except for a very shor t period.In all cases, it is essential to remove the key from the ignition switch when leaving the vehicle.
