The  charge  status  of  your  battery  can  
decrease especially if you use your ve- 
hicle:
–
  for short journeys;
–  for driving in town;
–  when the temperature drops;
–  after  extended  use  of  consumers   
(radio etc.) with the engine switched

Handle the battery with care  
as it contains sulphuric acid,  
which  must  not  come  into  
contact with eyes or skin. If  
it does, wash the affected area with  
plenty  of  cold  water.  If  necessary,  
consult a doctor.
Ensure  that  naked  flames,  red  hot  
objects and sparks do not come into  
contact with the battery as there is a  
risk of explosion.
The  battery  is  a  specific  
type ,  please  ensure  it  is  
replaced  with  the  same  
type.  Consult  an  approved  
dealer.

–  Before  going  through  a  roller  type  
car  wash,  return  the  windscreen  
wiper  stalk  to  park  position  (refer  to  
the  information  on  the  “Windscreen  
wash/wipe” in Section 1). Check the  
mounting  of  external  accessories,  
additional  lights,  door  mirrors,  etc.,  
and be sure to hold the wiper blades  
and  radio  aerial  in  place  with  adhe- 
sive tape.
Remove the radio aerial mast if your  
vehicle is fitted with this equipment.
–
  Spray  mechanical  components,   
hinges,  etc.  with  products  approved  
by  our  Technical  Department  to  
protect  them  after  they  have  been  
cleaned.
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).
y ou 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  
paintwork and may even cause  
the paint to peel off;
 
  Wash the vehicle  immediately to  
remove these marks since it is im- 
possible  to  remove  them  by  pol- 
ishing;
–
    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.

tyrEs (2/3)
Pressures should be checked when the  
tyres  are  cold;  ignore  higher  pressures  
which  may  be  reached  in  hot  weather  
or following a fast journey.
If  tyre  pressures  cannot  be  checked  
when  the  tyres  are  cold,  the  normal  
pressures  must  be  increased  by  0.2  to  
0.3 bar (or 3 P

positioned  on  the  valve  before  adding

Fitting new tyres
Emergency spare wheel
Refer  to  the  information  on  “Puncture”  
and “Changing a wheel” in Section 5.
t yre pressuresRespect  the  tyre  pressures  (including  
the  emergency  spare  wheel).  Check  
them at least once a month and before  
a long journey (refer to the label on the  
edge of the driver’s door).
incorrect  tyre  pressures   
lead  to  abnormal  tyre  wear  
and  unusually  hot  running.  
These  are  factors  which  
may seriously affect safety and lead  
to:
–
  poor road holding;
–  risk  of  bursting  or  tread  separa - 
tion.
The  pressure  depends  on  the  load  
and  the  speed  of  use.  Adjust  the  
pressures  according  to  the  condi- 
tions of use (refer to the information  
on “Tyre pressures”).
Please  be  aware  that  a  
poorly  tightened  or  miss- 
ing valve cap can make the  
tyres  less  airtight  and  lead  
to pressure loss.
Always  use  valve  caps  identical  to  
those  fitted  originally  and  tighten  
them fully.
For safety reasons, this op- 
eration  must  be  carried  out  
by a specialist.
Fitting  different  tyres  may  
change your vehicle as follows:
–
  may  mean  that  your  vehicle  no   
longer  conforms  to  current  regu- 
lations;
–
  it may change the way it handles   
when cornering;
–
  it  may  cause  the  steering  to  be   
heavy;
–
  It  may  affect  the  use  of  snow   
chains.
