venting the catch from lock-
ing (gravel, cloth, etc.).
After carrying out any work
in the engine compart-
ment, check that nothing
has been left behind (cloth,
tools, etc.).
These may damage the engine or
cause a fire.
In the event of even a slight
impact involving the radia-
tor grille or bonnet, have the

authorised dealer as soon as pos-
sible.
