SEVERE
DANGER:
Do not put cradle seats facing
backwards on the front seat if
the passenger side airbag has
been activated. Deployment of
the airbag in an accident could
cause fatal injuries to the child.
Should it be necessary to place
a child seat on the front seat,
always deactivate the
passenger side airbag. The
passenger seat must also be slid
back as far as possible in order,
to prevent the child seat from
coming into contact with the
dashboard. Although this is not
mandatory by law, the airbag
should be immediately
reactivated when children are
no longer carried to ensure
better protection for adults.

Never use flammable
products, such as
petroleum ether or modified
petrol, to clean the inside of
the vehicle.
The electrostatic charges which
are generated by rubbing
during the cleaning operation
may cause a fire.
WARNING
Do not keep aerosol
cans in the vehicle: they
might explode.
Aerosol cans must not be
exposed to temperatures
above 50°C. Temperatures
may greatly exceed this value
inside a vehicle exposed to
direct sunlight.
WARNINGFront headlights
IMPORTANT Never use aromatic
substances (e.g. petrol) or ketenes
(e.g. acetone) for cleaning the plastic
lenses of the front headlights.INTERIORS
Periodically check that water is not
trapped under the mats (due to
water dripping off shoes, umbrellas,
etc.) which could cause oxidisation
of the sheet metal.

vacuum cleaner. It is advisable to use
a moist brush on velvet upholstery.
