Preparations for a long trip
Before a driving holiday or some other type of
long journey, it is important to check the car's
functions and equipment particularly carefully.
Check that:
•
the engine is working normally and that fuel
consumption is normal
•
there are no leaks (fuel, oil or other fluid)
•
brake force during braking is optimal
•
all lamps are working - adjust headlamp level
if the car is heavily laden
•
the tyres have sufficient tread depth and
pressure. Change to winter tyres when driv-
ing to areas where there is a risk of snowy or
icy road surfaces.
•
starter battery charging is good
•
the wiper blades are in good condition
•
a warning triangle and high-visibility vest are
located in the car - legally required in certain
countries.
