in the event of sudden braking, place
them in the luggage compartment.
- Your reflexes are quicker if you eat lightly
before driving: avoid heavy meals before
a trip.
- Do not drink alcohol before and during
the journey.
- Check that the switch is positioned on
the desired driving mode.
If the vehicle was previously used
in RACE or mode, the RACE
mode will still be active during starting and
this might be dangerous in the event of
poor grip conditions.
Always fasten the seat belts and adjust
them properly. Correct use of the seat belts
can considerably reduce the risk of serious
injury in the event of an accident.
At regular intervals, check the following:
- Tire inflation pressure and condition
- Engine oil level
- Engine coolant level and cooling system
condition
- Brake fluid level
- Hydraulic steering system fluid level
- Windshield washer fluid level.
When traveling
- Caution is the number one rule for
safe driving, which also means you
should take other people’s behavior into
consideration.
- Follow the road regulations of the
country/state in which you are driving,
and always respect the speed limit.
- Strictly comply with the road signs and
road regulations (both national and
local) of the country/state in which you
are driving.
- Always check that you and the passenger
have your seat belts fastened; children
must be seated in the required child seat
in vehicles equipped with the passenger
air bag deactivation device.
- Good physical fitness will allow you to
safely travel long distances. Take regular
breaks to loosen up your limbs and
refresh yourself, and avoid driving for
hours on end.
Drunk driving, or driving under the
influence of drugs or certain medicines
is extremely dangerous for yourself and
others.
Taking certain medications, alcohol, drugs
or other substances may be extremely
dangerous to yourself and others as it could
considerably increase the risk of accidents.
Traveling without your seat belt fastened
increases the risk of serious injury and
death in the event of a collision. Always
fasten the seat belts, including those of the
child seat.
Deactivate the passenger airbag (where
possible) if transporting a child in a child
seat fitted on the passenger seat.
Proper driving
For proper traveling, it is essential that
the driver be aware of the best driving
techniques suited to various circumstances.
To help the driver safely handle roadways
with different grip conditions, without
excessively reducing driving performance
and pleasure, the five-position switch on
the steering wheel can be used to select
the best position/setting of the vehicle in
almost any condition (see page 95 ).
Always try to prevent dangerous situations
by driving with caution.
Before you drive
- Adjust the position of the seat, steering
wheel and rear view mirrors, in order to
obtain the best driving position.
- Adjust the backrest so that the chest
is upright and the head as close to the
headrest as possible.
- Carefully adjust the headrest so that the
head, and not the neck, is resting against
it. Ensure that nothing (e.g., floor mat,
etc.) is blocking the pedals.
- Check that the lights and headlights are
working properly.
- Check for proper functioning of the
acoustic and visual warning devices.
- Ensure that any child restraint systems
(e.g., child car seats, etc.) are properly
fixed on the passenger seat.
- To prevent objects being thrown forward
