3.52
BOOT STORAGE SPACE AND FITTINGS (5/5)
Always position the heaviest items directly on the floor. Use the lashing
points 15 on the boot floor, if these are fitted to the vehicle. The luggage
should be loaded in such a way that no items will be thrown forward and \
strike the occupants if the driver has to brake suddenly. Fasten the rear
seat belts, even if the seats are not occupied.

Anchorage points
Attachment points 15
If your vehicle is not equipped with
anchorage points, you can get them
from an authorised dealer.
Always place objects being trans-
ported so that the heaviest items
are resting against the back of the
rear bench seat.

TRANSPORTING OBJECTS IN THE LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT
Always position the objects transported
so that the largest surface is against:
– The rear bench seatback for normal loads (example A).
– The front seatbacks with the rear
seatbacks folded down, as is the case
for maximum loads (example B).
If you have to place objects on the folded
seatback, it is necessary that you lower
the headrests before folding the seat-
back so that it can be folded as flat as
possible against the seat.

A1
Always position the heavi-
est items directly on the
floor. Use the lashing
points 1 on the boot floor, if
these are fitted to the vehicle. The
luggage should be loaded in such a
way that no items will be thrown for-
ward and strike the occupants if the
driver has to brake suddenly. Fasten
the rear seat belts, even if the seats
are not occupied.

Glass instrument panel(e.g. instrument panel, clock, exterior
temperature display, radio display, etc.)
Use a soft cloth (or cotton wool).
If this does not clean them properly,
use a soft cloth (or cotton wool) slightly
moistened with soapy water and then
wipe clean with another soft damp cloth
or cotton wool.
Finally, carefully dry off with a soft dry
cloth.
Do not use products containing alco-
hol and/or spray fluids on the area.
Seat belts
These must be kept clean.
Use products selected by our Technical
Department (Approved outlets) or
warm, soapy water and a sponge and
wipe with a dry cloth.
Detergents or dyes must not be used
under any circumstances.
INTERIOR TRIM MAINTENANCE (1/2)
Textiles (seats, door trim, etc)
Vacuum-clean the textiles regularly.
Liquid stain
Use soapy water.
Dab lightly (never rub) with a soft cloth,
rinse and remove the excess.
Solid or pasty stain
Carefully remove the excess solid or
pasty material immediately with a
spatula (working from the edges to the
centre to avoid spreading the stain).
Clean as for a liquid stain.
Special instructions for sweets or
chewing gum
Put an ice cube on the stain to solidify
it, then proceed as for a solid stain.
A well-maintained vehicle will last
longer. It is therefore recommended to
maintain the interior of the vehicle regu-
larly.
A stain should always be dealt with
swiftly.
Whatever type of stain is on the trim,
use
cold (or warm) soapy water with
natural soap.
Detergents (washing-up liquid, pow-
dered products, alcohol-based prod-
ucts) should not be used.
Use a soft cloth.
Rinse and soak up the excess.
For further recommendations for
maintaining the interior, and/or for
any unsatisfactory results, please
see an authorised dealer.

OPERATING FAULTS (7/7)
Electrical equipmentPOSSIBLE CAUSESWHAT TO DO
Traces of condensation in the lights
and headlights. Traces of condensation may be a nat-
ural phenomenon caused by varia-
tions in temperature and humidity.
In this case, the traces will disappear
slowly once the lights are switched
on.
The front seat belt reminder light
comes on when the seat belts are
fastened. An object is stuck between the floor
and the seat and is disrupting the op-
eration of the sensor. Remove all objects from underneath the
front seats.
