IMPORTANTIf the boot is opened
with the key when the electronic
alarm is on, the latter will not be

USING THE CAR AGAIN
Before using the car again after a
prolonged period of inactivity, the
following operations are recom-
mended:
– Do not dry-dust the car body.
– Check for fluid leaks (oil, brake
and clutch fluid, engine coolant
etc.).
– Change engine oil and filter.
– Check the level of:
– brake and clutch fluid
– engine coolant.
– Check the air cleaner and change
it, if required.
– Check the tyre pressure and the
tyres for signs of damage, cuts or
cracks. If this is the case, have them
replaced.
– Check the engine belt conditions.STORING THE CAR
The following precautions should
be taken if the car will not be used
for several months:
– Park the car in covered, dry and
if possible well-ventilated premises.
– Engage a gear.
– If the car is parked on flat
ground, disengage the electric park-
ing brake as described in the rele-
vant paragraph.
– Clean and protect the painted
parts using protective wax.
– Sprinkle talcum powder on the
rubber windscreen and rear window
wiper blades and lift them off the
glass.
– Slightly open the windows.
– Inflate the tyres to 0.5 bar above
the normal specified pressure, lean
them on wood boards, if possible
and check it at intervals.– Do not switch the electronic
alarm system on.
– Remove the negative cable (-)
from the battery terminal and check
the battery charge. This check
should be performed every month if
the car is to be stored for long peri-
ods. Recharge the battery if it falls
below 12.5V.
IMPORTANTBefore opening the
luggage compartment bonnet to dis-
connect the battery, carefully read
and comply with instructions con-
tained in the paragraph “If battery is
to be disconnected” in the chapter
“In an emergency”.
– Do not drain the engine cooling
system.
– Cover the car with a cloth or per-
forated plastic sheet. Do not use
sheets of non-perforated plastic as
they do not allow moisture on the
body to evaporate.
