Before first use, familiarise yourself with driving the vehicle, particularly in
reverse. Be very careful when going downhill, overtaking or if there are cross-
winds. On the road, always bear in mind the dimensions of your vehicle.
Height
Be careful with bridges, tunnels, car parks, overhead branches, service station
canopies, etc.
Width
Avoid entering narrow passageways or areas involving complicated extraction
manoeuvres. If need be, perform an initial reconnaissance of the site.
Overhang
When manoeuvring, do not hesitate to ask for assistance from someone outside the vehicle.
4.4 Authorised seats
Authorised seats while driving
Only the seats in the living area marked with the sticker shown opposite are authorised when
driving, with the seat belt fastened. Only seats facing the road or back to the road are authorised
during driving, depending on the models. In some lounge configurations, you must remove the
cushions and adjust furniture (see the dinette sleeping area).
