4 While driving
4.1 Driving with the Malibu box-type van
→ Before driving off each time and after short breaks, make sure that the
entrance step has been fully retracted.
→ The basic vehicle is a commercial vehicle (small HGV). Adapt your driv -
ing accordingly. With underpasses, tunnels or similar, observe the overall
height of the Malibu box-type van (see all technical data in the vehicle
documents).
→ When travelling, persons must only remain on the seats. The permissible
number of seats can be obtained in the vehicle documents. Before driving
away, apply your seat belt and keep it on when driving.
The driver is responsible that the following points are observed:
• persons travelling must remain seated on the intended places.
• the compulsory wearing of seat belts must be observed.
• the door lock must not be opened.
• the safety instructions listed in chapter 2 must be observed.
Avoid sudden jerky braking actions. Drive slowly on roads with poor surface
quality. The driver and all passengers must always wear their seat belts when
travelling. Never take off your seat belt when driving.
→ For visual upgrading and design customisation of the Fiat dashboard, we
use our own ventilation grille variants in silver metallic colour with branding.
In certain situations, a small amount of ventilation grille reflection may
occur on the windscreen, depending on the way the light falls. A similar
kind of reflection occurs in cars. It is not a reason for complaint.
