A few driving recommendations
Observe the driving regulations at all times and remain vigilant whatever the traffic conditions.
P ay close attention to the traffic and keep your hands on the wheel so that you are ready to react at
a
ny time to any eventuality.
On
a long journey, a break every two hours is strongly recommended.
In
difficult weather, drive smoothly, anticipate the need to brake and increase the distance from
o
ther
v
ehicles.
driving on flooded roads
We strongly advise against driving on flooded roads, as this could cause serious damage
t
o the engine or gearbox, as well as to the
e
lectrical systems of your vehicle.
Important!
Never drive with the parking brake applied - Risk of overheating and
d
amage to the braking system!
Do
not park or run the engine when
s
tationary in areas where inflammable
s
ubstances and materials (dry grass,
d
ead leaves...) might come into contact
w
ith the hot exhaust system - Risk of
f
ire!
Never
leave a vehicle unsupervised
w
ith the engine running. If you have
t
o leave your vehicle with the engine
r
unning, apply the parking brake
a
nd put the gearbox into neutral or
p
osition
n or P,
depending on the type
o
