DRIVING
TIPS

Driving
safely
Attention

The
operational
condition of your
vehicle
is
essential
to
safe

driving.
Therefore before moving off, always check
the following points:
• Lights and
turn
signals
•
Mirror
settings
• Cleanliness of
headlights,
lenses and
windows

Also
check at regular intervals, preferably
when filling the tank, all the checks listed on
page160

Furthermore compliance
with
the specified Inspection intervals - in particular the brake
fluid changing - is of great importance for operational safety - pages 93 and 98.
Attention

Safety
on the
road
depends to a

large
extent
on the personal
atti­

tude
and
style
of driving.

To
be on the safe side you should:
•
Always
put
seat
belt
on
before
moving
off -
even
in
town
traffic
-

and

• Ensure
that
all your passengers - including
those
on the
rear
seat
- are

wearing
their
belts
correctly
- page
15

Passengers
without seat belts can en­

danger
not only themselves, but also the
driver.
•
Adjust
head
rests
to body size.
The
upper edge of headrest must be ap­proximately at eye
level.

• Ensure
that
no
articles
interfere
with
operation
of pedals - page 29
•
Stow
all
luggage
correctly:
- in
boot
- page 28
- on the shelves - page 27
- on the
roof
- page 75 • Do not
drive
when
you
feel
tired.

Stop
for a break at the latest after driving for
two hours.
•
Never
drive
when
your
reactions
are
impaired
in any way. Not only alcohol but also drugs and many

medicines
can be very detrimental to your

reactions.

•
Adapt
vehicle
speed to
traffic
and
road
conditions.
Remember
that
particularly on smooth slip­
pery roads the handling and braking is li­
mited by the adhesion of the tyres. On wet

roads
the
front
wheels can aquaplane at
high
speeds.
The vehicle can then no longer

be
steered and braked properly.
•
Strictly
adhere
to the
traffic
regu­
lations
-
particularly
the speed li­

mits
-.
Further instructions on safety are given in
the various chapters in this manual.
