An impact to the under-
side of the vehicle while
manoeuvring (e.g.: stri-
king a post, raised kerb or
other street furniture) may result in
damage to the vehicle (e.g.: defor-
mation of an axle).To prevent any
risk of accident, have your vehicle
checked by an approved dealer.
Make sure that the hand-
brake is properly released
when driving (red indi-
cator light off), otherwise
overheating, or even damage, may
occur.
Depending on the gradient
and/or vehicle load, it may
be necessary when statio-
nary to apply the brake by
at least a further two notches and
engage a gear (1
st
