DS 3: Driving / Driving recommendations
- Observe the driving regulations and remain vigilant whatever the traffic conditions.
- Monitor your environment and keep your hands on the wheel to be able to react to anything that may happen any time.
- Drive smoothly, anticipate the need for braking and maintain a longer safety distance, especially in bad weather.
- Stop the vehicle before performing operations that require sustained attention (e.g. settings).
- During long trips, take a break every 2 hours.
Important!
Never
leave the engine running in a closed
space without sufficient ventilation.
Internal combustion engines emit toxic exhaust gases such as carbon monoxide.
Danger of poisoning and death!
In very severe wintry
conditions
(temperature below -23°C), let the engine
run for 4 minutes before moving off, to ensure
the correct operation and durability of the
mechanical components of your vehicle
(engine and gearbox).
Never drive with the
parking brake
applied. Risk of overheating and
damaging the braking system!
Do not park the vehicle
or leave the engine
running on a flammable surface (e.g. dry
grass, dead leaves).The vehicle exhaust
system is very hot, even several minutes after
the engine stops. Risk of fire!
Never leave a vehicle
unattended with the
engine running. If you have to leave your
vehicle with the engine running, apply the
parking brake and put the gearbox or drive
selector into neutral or position N or P
(depending on version).
Never
leave children inside the vehicle
unsupervised.
