IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
WARNING
INTERIOR FITTINGSDo not travel with the storage compartment open: it may injure the front seat occupants in the event of an accident.The cigar lighter gets extremely hot. Handle it carefully and make sure that children don’t use it: risk of fire and/or burns.Do not use the ashtray as a waste paper basket: it may catch fire in contact with cigarette stubs.
ROOF RACK/SKI RACK
Before driving, make sure that the transversal bars have been fitted properly.
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION SYSTEMS
The catalytic converter and particulate filter (DPF) reach very high temperatures during operation. Therefore do not park the vehicle on
flammable materials (e.g. grass, dry leaves, pine needles, etc.): fire hazard.
IMPORTANT
ROOF RACK/SKI RACKThe use of transversal bars on longitudinal ones prevents the use of the sunroof, because the latter, while opening, interferes with the bars.
Therefore do not move the sunroof if transversal bars have been fitted.
Fully comply with the regulations in force concerning maximum clearance.
