IMPORTANT
10) If the ignition device has been
tampered with (e.g. attempted theft), have
it checked over by a Dealership before
driving again.
11) Always take the key with you when you
leave your vehicle to prevent someone
from accidentally operating the controls.
Remember to engage the parking brake.
Engage first gear if the vehicle is parked
uphill or reverse gear if the vehicle is
parked downhill. Never leave children
unattended in the vehicle.
12) Never extract the key while the
vehicle is moving. The steering wheel will
automatically lock as soon as it is turned.
This also applies to cases in which the

engage the electric parking brake using
the switch on the part of the dashboard on
the driver's side. Put the transmission in
the P (Park) position and press the ignition
device to set it to STOP. Always lock the
doors when you leave the vehicle.
14) Do not leave the electronic key inside
or near the vehicle or in a place accessible
to children. Do not leave the vehicle with
the ignition device in ENGINE position. A
child could activate the electric window
winders, other controls or even start the
vehicle.
