During the first 1,600 km (1,000 miles), follow these
recommendations to obtain maximum engine per-
formance and ensure the future reliability and
economy of your new vehicle. Failure to follow these

WARNING
The driving characteristics of your vehicle will
change remarkably by any additional load and its
distribution, as well as by adding optional equip-
ment (trailer coupling, roof rail, etc.). Your driv-
ing style and speed must be adjusted according
to the circumstances. Especially when carrying
heavy loads, your speed must be reduced ad-
equately.

Make sure the area around the vehicle is clear.
•
Check fluid levels such as engine oil, coolant,
brake (and clutch) fluid, window washer fluid as
frequently as possible, at least whenever you
refuel.
•
Visually inspect tyres for their appearance and
condition. Measure and check the tyre pressure
for proper inflation.

Check that all windows and lights are clean.
•
Adjust the seat and head restraint positions.
•
Adjust the inside and outside rearview mirror po-
sitions.
•
Fasten your seat belt and ask all passengers to
do the same.

Check that all doors are closed.

Check the operation of the warning lights when
the ignition switch is placed in the “ON” position.
