To avoid all risk of sparks:

• Ensure that the "energy consumers" (ceiling lights, etc.) are switched off before disconnecting or reconnecting a battery;
• when charging, switch off the charger before connecting or disconnecting the battery;
• do not place any metal objects on the battery as this may create a short circuit across the terminals;
• wait for at least five minutes after switching off the engine before disconnecting the battery;
• make sure that you reconnect the battery terminals

Before towing, set the gearbox to N position, unlock the steering column then release the parking brake.

The speed specified by current legislation for towing must always be observed.

If you are driving the towing vehicle, do not exceed the maximum towing weight for your vehicle Weights (in kg).

The tools included in the tool kit A may vary depending on the vehicle.

After use, ensure the tools are correctly stored.

Label A

Open the driver's door to read it.

Tyre pressures should be checked when the tyres are cold.

Tyre and wheel safety

The tyres are the only contact between the vehicle and the road, so it is essential to keep them in good condition.

You must make sure that your tyres con- form to local road traffic regulations.

Maintaining the tyres

The tyres must be in good condition and the treads must have sufficient depth: tyres approved by our Technical Department have wear warning strips 1 which are indicators moulded into the tread at several points.
