ANTITHEFT PROTECTION
The system is equipped with an
anti-theft protection system based on
the exchange of information with the
electronic control unit (Body Computer)
on the vehicle.
This guarantees maximum safety and
prevents the secret code from being
entered after the power supply has
been disconnected.
If the check has a positive outcome, the
system will start to operate, whereas if
the comparison codes are not the
same or if the electronic control unit
(Body Computer) is replaced, the
system will ask the user to enter the
secret code according to the procedure
described in the paragraph below.
Entering the secret code
When the system is switched on, if the
code is requested, the display will
show "Please enter Anti-Theft Code"
followed by the screen showing a

WARNING
LUGGAGE CARRIER
Follow the instructions contained in the assembly kit carefully. Assembly must be performed by qualified personnel.
After travelling for a few kilometres, check to ensure that the fixing screws for the attachments are well tightened. Distribute the load
evenly and pay attention to side winds when driving.
Fully comply with the regulations in force concerning maximum clearance. Never exceed the maximum permitted loads (see chapter
"Technical specifications").
ACCESSORIES PURCHASED BY THE OWNER
Take care when fitting additional spoilers, alloy wheels or non-standard wheel hubs: they could reduce the ventilation of the brakes and
affect efficiency under sharp, repeated braking or on long descents. Make sure that nothing obstructs the pedal stroke (mats, etc.).
PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The Diesel particulate filter (DPF) reaches high temperatures during normal operation. Therefore, do not park the vehicle on flammable
material (grass, dry leaves, pine needles etc.): fire hazard.
RIM PROTECTOR TYRES
DO NOT fit wheel hub caps when using integral hub caps fixed (with springs) to the steel rim and after sale tyres provided with a Rim
Protector. Use of unsuitable tyres and wheel caps may cause sudden decrease of tyre pressure.
