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 RACKAfter 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").
Distribute the load evenly and pay attention to side winds when driving.
ELECTRIC POWER STEERINGBefore starting any servicing operation, stop the engine and remove the key from the ignition switch to operate the steering lock,
particularly when the wheels do not touch the ground. If this is not possible (for example if the key needs to be turned to MAR or the
engine must be running), remove the main fuse that protects the electric power steering.
INTERIORNever 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.
