RADIO TRANSMITTERS AND
MOBILE PHONES
Radio transmitters (car phones, CB
radios etc.) cannot be used inside
the vehicle unless a separate aerial is
mounted externally.
IMPORTANT The use of such
devices inside the passenger
compartment (without an external
aerial) may, in addition to potential
damage to the health of the
passengers, cause malfunctions in the
vehicle’s electronic systems,
compromising the safety of the
vehicle.
In addition, transmission and
reception of these devices may be
adversely affected by the shielding
effect of the vehicle’s body.
As far as the use of EC-approved
mobile phones is concerned (GSM,
GPRS, UMTS), follow the usage
instructions provided by the mobile
phone manufacturer.
REFUELLING
Never introduce even a
minimal quantity of
petrol to the tank, even
in an emergency; the catalytic
converter would be damaged,
irreparably compromising its
operation.
An inefficient catalytic
converter leads to
harmful exhaust
emissions, thus contributing to
environmental pollution.
The vehicle must be
refuelled exclusively
with diesel for motor
vehicles in compliance with
European specification EN590.
The use of other products or
mixtures may damage the
engine beyond repair and
consequently invalidate the
warranty, due to the damage
caused. If you accidentally
refuel with another type of fuel,
do not start the engine, and
drain the tank. If the engine has
run, even for a very short time,
with other fuels, the whole fuel
circuit must be drained in
addition to the tank.
