DRIVER’S SEAT
Vehicle specifications are subject to change. When the engine is turned off, ensure that the starter switch is in position II when operating electrical items such
as door mirrors and windows, etc. This vehicle does not include any manufacturer handbooks or manuals.
No responsibility is accepted for inaccuracies or misunderstanding caused by the wording of this guide. If in any doubt ask a member of staff for assistance.
Use hazard lights. Attempt to park
in a safe position.
Use an emergency phone rather
than a mobile as emergency
services will then know the location
of the vehicle.
Never use a child seat in a front
passenger seat which is fitted with
an active airbag (SRS). Follow all
fitting instructions carefully.
Check seat positioning and security
before use.

Select N for neutral, P when leaving the vehicle, R for reversing (the vehicle must be at a complete standstill before this
gear can be selected). For normal driving select D where the transmission will use all available forward gears automatically
(a ‘kickdown ‘ facility is provided when the accelerator is pressed all the way to the floor past the normal acceleration point
forcing the transmission to select a lower gear to obtain maximum acceleration. Release pressure on the accelerator to
return to normal accelerator use). Use D+ or D- to manually select gears (use low gears for best engine braking for driving
in hilly terrain or hazardous conditions). Whenever the vehicle is at a standstill apply the handbrake.
