Reading the Owner's Manual
Introduction
A good way of getting to know your new car
is to read the owner's manual, ideally before
your first journey. This will give you the
opportunity to familiarise yourself with new
functions, to see how best to handle the car
in different situations, and to make the best
use of all the car's features. Please pay atten-
tion to the safety instructions contained in the
manual.
The specifications, design features and illus-
trations in this owner's manual are not bind-
ing. We reserve the right to make modifica-
tions without prior notice.
