BEFORE DRIVING OFF

Before driving off, especially before a

long journey, the following procedures

should be carried out:

– Adjust the seat, steering wheel and

rear-view mirrors in order to obtain a cor-

rect position for driving.

– Check that nothing can get under the

foot pedals, especially under the brake

pedal.

– If children are present in the car ad-

here to the instructions given in the para-

graph “General instructions for the use of

the seat belts and child restraint system”

in the chapter “Getting to know your

car”.

For vehicles equipped

with turbocharger in

particular and for other

vehicles in general, revving the

engine before switching off

should be avoided.

Revving the engine serves no

purpose and consumes fuel for

no reason. It may also cause

damage to the bearings on the

rotor.

Do not bump, tow or

coast start the vehicle

as this would irrepara-

bly damage the exhaust gas cat-

alyzer.
