63GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR
IMPORTANT Sudden braking or
collisions can cause sudden shifts of
the load which could jeopardise the
safety of the driver and the passen-
gers: before you start off make sure
the load is firmly secured.Use metal cables, ropes or straps
strong enough to support the weight
of the load to be fixed.In addition to these general precau-
tions, some simple measures could
enhance driving safety, comfort and
the length of your vehicle’s life:
– distribute the load evenly over the
load floor: if you need to concentrate
it all in one point choose the part be-
tween the axles;
– remember that the lower the load
is, the lower the vehicle’s centre of
gravity will be, contributing to a safe
drive; you should therefore always po-
sition the heavier goods at the bottom;
– finally, remember that the way in
which the vehicle moves is influenced
by the weight being carried. In partic-
ular, stopping distance lengthens par-
ticularly at high speed.

119CAR MAINTENANCE
Do not keep accessories (e.g. sound
system, hazard lights etc.) switched on
for a long time when the engine is not
running.
IMPORTANTA battery which is
kept at a charge of less than 50% for
any length of time will be damaged by
sulphation leading to a reduction in
cranking power and a higher risk of
the battery electrolyte freezing (this
may even occur at –10°C).
If the car is inactive for a long period
of time, refer to
STORING THE CAR, in
the chapter
DRIVING YOUR CAR.
If you want to add accessories after
buying the car (antitheft system, free-
hand phone kit, radio navigator, etc.)
visit a Fiat Dealership. They can
suggest the most suitable accessories
to get and check whether the electric
system can support the required load
or whether a larger capacity battery is
required. USEFUL ADVICE FOR
LENGTHENING THE LIFE
OF YOUR BATTERY
When you park the car, ensure the
doors, tailgate and bonnet are closed
properly. The ceiling lights must be off.
