CAR CARE
Washing by hand is gentler to the paintwork
than an automatic car wash. The paintwork
is also more sensitive when it is new. For this
reason, handwashing is recommended during
the first few months with a new car.
Use clean water and a washing sponge.
Remember that dirt and grit can scratch the
paint.
TIPPING THE REAR SEAT BACKREST
Hang the seatbelt up in the coat hanger.

road speed.

eration is complete.
EBA – EMERGENCY BRAKE ASSIST
Emergency Brake Assistance helps to increase

as necessary – all braking ceases if the pedal
is released.
