Driving recommendations
► Observe the driving regulations and remain vigilant whatever the traffic conditions.► Monitor your environment and keep your hands on the wheel to be able to react to anything that may happen any time.► Drive smoothly, anticipate the need for braking and maintain a longer safety distance, especially in bad weather.► Stop the vehicle before performing operations that require sustained attention (e.g. settings).► During long trips, take a break every 2 hours.
Important!
WARNI NG
Never leave the engine running in a closed space without sufficient ventilation. Internal combustion engines emit toxic exhaust gases such as carbon monoxide. Danger of poisoning and death!
WARNI NG
In very severe wintry conditions (temperature below -23°C), let the engine run for 4 minutes before moving off, to ensure the correct
operation and durability of the mechanical components of your vehicle (engine and gearbox).
WARNI NG
Never drive with the parking brake applied. Risk of overheating and damaging the braking system!
WARNI NG
Do not park the vehicle or leave the engine
running on a flammable surface (e.g. dry grass, dead leaves).The vehicle exhaust system is very hot, even several minutes after the engine stops. Risk of fire!
WARNI NG
Never drive on surfaces covered with vegetation (tall grass, accumulation of dead leaves, crops, debris) such as a field, a country lane overgrown with bushes or a grassy verge.This vegetation could come into contact with the vehicle's exhaust system or other systems which are very hot. Risk of fire!
WARNI NG
Make sure you do not leave any item in the passenger compartment which could act like a magnifying glass under the effect of the
sun's rays and cause a fire - risk of fire or damage to interior surface!
WARNI NG
Never leave a vehicle unattended with the engine running. If you have to leave your vehicle with the engine running, apply the parking brake and put the gearbox into neutral or position N or P (depending on the
type of gearbox).
WARNI NG
Never leave children inside the vehicle unsupervised.

When driving
Cooling
Towing a trailer uphill causes the coolant temperature to increase. The maximum towable load depends on the gradient and the exterior temperature. The fan’s cooling capacity does not increase with engine speed.► Reduce speed and lower the engine speed to limit the amount of heating produced.► Pay constant attention to the coolant temperatureIf this warning lamp and the STOP warning lamp come on, stop the vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as possible.
Brakes
Using the engine brake is recommended to limit the overheating of the brakes. Braking distances are increased when towing a trailer.
Side wind
Bear in mind that the vehicle will be more
susceptible to wind when towing.
