it properly, moisten the cloth with soapy
water then rinse off.

ACCESSORIES
Electrical and electronic accessories
Before installing this type of accessory (particularly for transmitters\
/receivers: frequency bandwidth, power level, po-
sition of the aerial, etc.), make sure it is compatible with your vehic\
le. You can get advice from an authorised dealer.
Only connect accessories with a maximum power of 65 watts. Fire hazard. When several accessory sockets are used
at the same time, the total power of the connected accessories must not \
exceed 65 watts.
No work may be carried out on the vehicle’s electrical or radio circuits, except by approved Dealers: an incorrect\
ly connected
system may result in damage being caused to the electrical equipment and\
/or the components connected to it.
If the vehicle is fitted with any aftermarket electrical equipment, make\
sure that the installation is correctly protected by a fuse.
Establish the rating and position of this fuse.
Using the diagnostic socket

proved by the manufacturer, consult an Approved
Dealer. Serious accident risk.
Use of transmission/receiving devices (telephones, CB equipment etc.).\

to the legislation in force concerning the use of such equipment.
Fitting after-market accessories

horised dealer. Also, to ensure the correct operation o f
your vehicle, and to avoid any risk to your safety, we recommend that you use only accessories specifically designed for y\
our
vehicle, which are the only accessories for which the manufacturer will \
provide a warranty.

.
Obstructions to the driver

ponents, and check the fitting regularly. Do not lay on e
mat on top of another. There is a risk of wedging the pedals.

water;
– do not use them when the wind- screen is dry;
– free them from the windscreen when they have not been used
for a long time.
– In freezing weather, make
sure that the wiper blades
are not stuck by ice (to
avoid the risk of the wiper
motor overheating).
– Keep an eye on the condition of
the blade.
Replace the wiper blades as soon
as they begin to lose efficiency:
approximately once a year.
When changing the blade, when it
has been removed, do not let the
wiper arm fall against the window:
risk of breaking the window.Replacement

it will go;
