IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
WARNING
INTERIOR FITTINGS
Do not travel with the storage compartments open: they 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.
ROOF RACK/SKI RACK
After travelling for a few kilometres, check to ensure that the fixing screws for the attachments are well tightened.
Never exceed the maximum permitted loads (see chapter "Technical specifications").
Evenly distribute the load and take into account, when driving, the increased responsiveness of the vehicle to side wind.
INTERIOR
Ever use flammable products, such as petrol ether or rectified petrol to clean the inside of the car. The electrostatic charges which are
generated by rubbing during the cleaning operation may cause a fire.
Do not keep aerosol cans in the car: they might explode. Aerosol cans must not be exposed to a temperature exceeding 50°C. When the
vehicle is exposed to sunlight, the internal temperature can greatly exceed this value.
It is essential that there is nothing under the pedals: make sure the mats are lying flat and do not get in the way of the pedals.
POWER SUPPLY
Modifications or repairs to the fuel system that are not carried out correctly or do not take the system technical specifications into account
can cause malfunctions leading to the risk of fire.
WARNING
ROOF RACK/SKI RACK
Fully comply with the regulations in force concerning maximum clearance.
INTERIOR
Never use alcohol, petrols and derivatives to clean the dashboard and instrument panel lens.
