The driving characteristics of your vehicle can be changed remarkably by any additional load and its distribution as well as by adding optional equipment (trailer couplings, roof racks, etc.). Your driving style and speed have to be adjusted accordingly. Especially when carrying heavy loads, your speed must be reduced adequately.

  • Make sure the area around the vehicle is free of obstacles.

  • Check fluid levels such as engine oil, coolant, brake fluid, and window washer fluid as frequently as possible, at least whenever you refuel.

  • Visually inspect tyres for their appearance and condition. Also check the tyre pressure for proper inflation.

  • Maintenance items in the “8. Maintenance and do-it-yourself” section should be checked periodically.

  • Check that all windows and light lenses are clean.

  • Check that all doors are closed.

  • Position the seat and adjust the head restraints.

  • Adjust the inside and outside mirrors.

  • Fasten your seat belt and ask all passengers to do likewise.

  • Check the operation of the warning/indicator lights when the power switch is switched ON.

  • Do not place hard or heavy objects on the dashboard or rear parcel shelf in order to prevent injury in the event of a sudden stop.
