ACCESSORIES

Electrical and electronic accessories

Before installing this type of accessory (particularly for transmitters/receivers: frequency bandwidth, power level, po-

sition of the aerial, etc.), make sure it is compatible with your vehicle. You can get advice from an authorised dealer.

To install an accessory requiring intervention with the vehicle’s 12V electrical circuit, please follow these instructions:

–  disconnect the charging cord from the traction battery;

–  switch off the ignition;

–  disconnect the 12V battery.

Risk of serious injury.

Connect accessories with a maximum power of 120 watts only. Fire hazard.

No work may be carried out on the vehicle’s electrical or radio circuits, except by authorised dealers: an incorrectly connected 

system may result in damage being caused to the electrical equipment and/or the components connected to it.

If the vehicle is fitted with any aftermarket electrical equipment, make sure that the installation is correctly protected by a fuse. 

Establish the rating and position of this fuse.

Use of transmission/receiving devices (telephones, CB equipment etc.).

Telephones and CB equipment with integrated aerials may cause interference to the electronic systems originally fitted to the 

vehicle: it is advisable only to use equipment with an external aerial. Furthermore, we remind you of the need to conform 

to the legislation in force concerning the use of such equipment.

Fitting after-market accessories

If you wish to install accessories on the vehicle: please contact an authorised dealer. Also, to ensure the correct operation of 

your vehicle, and to avoid any risk to your safety, we recommend that you use only accessories specifically designed for your 

vehicle, which are the only accessories for which the manufacturer will provide a warranty.

If you are using an anti-theft device, only attach it to the brake pedal.

Obstructions to the driver

On the driver’s side, only use mats suitable for the vehicle, attached with the pre-fitted components, and check the fitting regu-

larly. Do not lay one mat on top of another. There is a risk of wedging the pedals
