RADIO AND TELECOMMUNICATIONSEQUIPMENTAuxiliary electrical power connections areprovided to assist the fitting of radiotelecommunication equipment. These are threetwo-pin connectors inside the driver'scompartment on the fuse board immediatelybehind the fascia fuse box cover. One iscontrolled by the ignition switch and two are fedfrom the battery and controlled by a batteryprotection relay (see later text for informationconcerning the battery protection and warningsystem). Note: whilst positions are provided forthese auxiliary power connections in theunderbonnet fuse box, fuses are not installed.Whoever fits auxiliary equipment will need tosupply and fit the relevant fuses to the fuse box. A 12 volt, 10 Amp power outlet is provided inthe front compartment for use with portableequipment.

ALWAYS ENSURE RADIO TELEPHONECOMMUNICATIONS EQUIPMENT IS FITTEDBY COMPETENT PERSONNEL AND DRAWTHEIR ATTENTION TO THIS FACILITY BUILTINTO YOUR VEHICLE

TAXIMETERYou should be aware that defects which arise inthe operation of the taximeter and the relatedvehicle electrical and electronic systems maynot be covered by warranty.

VEHICLE ELECTRICAL SYSTEMSWARNING:The electrical systems fitted to yourvehicle incorporates equipment and

electronic devices which are adequately

protected by fuses and other forms ofelectrical protection to minimise any risk ofoverheating or damage to components of thevehicle. To prevent the risk of fire or noxiousfumes resulting from incorrect electricalmodifications or the fitting of additionalequipment, modifications or additions shouldonly be made by a competent and suitablyqualified auto electrician, so that vehiclewiring is not overloaded and any additionalequipment is positioned with adequatewiring and fuses. LTI Vehicles accepts noresponsibility for any damage caused byincorrectly installed additional equipment.

LTI Vehicles recognises that taxis often standwith the engine off, but with exterior and interiorlights and auxiliaries switched on and this canquickly discharge the battery. In order to assistthe operator in routine taxi operation yourvehicle is fitted with a protection and warningsystem that will turn off the auxiliary electricalpower connections 30 minutes after the vehicleis vacated. This will prevent any auxiliaries thatmight be left on from discharging the batteryany further. You will also be notified with anaudible signal one minute before the auxiliariesare switched off. See the information onautomatic switching-off of the interior lights onpage 20 which also limits the risk of batterydischarge.

WARNING:If additional equipment is installed onthe vehicle and it is not connected via

the auxiliary outputs provided, the vehiclebattery may become discharged to the pointwhere the vehicle will not start.

Always fit fuses of the capacity indicated onthe label fitted to the fascia fuse box andelectrical relay access cover and the plan ofunderbonnet fuses and electrical relaysshown later in this book.Noxious fumes fromoverheating electrical components can bedangerous when inhaled. Never continue tooperate a vehicle which is suspected ofhaving an electrical failure.

OILS, FLUIDS AND SOLVENTSProlonged and repeated contact with usedengine oils may cause serious skin disordersincluding dermatitis and cancer. Excessivecontact with used oils should be avoided -always use barrier cream and wash thoroughlyafter contact.Many liquids and other substances used inmotor vehicles are poisonous and should underno circumstances be consumed, or allowed tocome into contact with open wounds. Thesesubstances, among others, include anti-freeze,brake fluid, fuel, windscreen washer additives,vehicle cleaning materials, all lubricants andadhesives. Keep all such substances out of thereach of children.

Always dispose of used oils and solvents etc. atan approved Public Waste Disposal facility.Never pour such material into the publicdrainage system or allow them to seep into thesoil.

SERVICE INTERVALSYour vehicle is designed to operate on a 10,000mile service interval. Information on vehicleservicing is included later in this book.

Security systems.The Anti Theft Systems fitted to the vehicle aredesigned to minimise the risk of unauthorisedoperation without using a correctly codedremote key or ignition key. On all models theremote key operates the central door lockingsystem. Each ignition key contains atransponder which the security systemrecognises.

An alarm upgrade system, fitted to somemodels, provides perimeter protection of thevehicle by switches covering the doors, bonnetand boot, and interior ultrasonic detection ofmovement in the driver’s compartment. Whenthis system is armed, if someone breaks into thevehicle, opens the bonnet, boot or a door, the

hazard warning lights will flash and an alarm willsound at full power for 30 seconds and thenstop, re-arming itself against any furtherintrusion. However, the engine immobiliser willcontinue to prevent the vehicle from beingdriven away.

How to turn off ultrasonic detectionIf required, the ultrasonic sensors may betemporarily switched off - press lock button 4times within 30 seconds, they will be re-enablednext time alarm is set.

Remote key fobsThe battery operated, remote key fob emits acoded radio signal which operates the securityand locking system when the key buttons arepressed while adjacent to the vehicle. Whilst thekey buttons are pressed a small light (A) in thekey will illuminate to confirm the remote key isoperating. Note: Avoid inadvertent and repeated pressingof the remote key buttons, as ultimately thiscould stop the security system respondingwithout being reprogrammed. Keep remote keys clean and dry (shake off anywater which does get onto a key beforeoperating it), and never expose the keys to atemperature exceeding 60°C (140°F).Do not suspend or swing about your key ringfrom the remote key fob. Take care not to trap,crush or squash the remote key fob. Keep it dryand do not immerse in liquid of any sort. Anydamage caused in this way may not be coveredby warranty.If the battery in the remote key fob becomesdischarged the small light (A) will flash when thekey buttons are pressed. When this happens,replace the battery in the remote key (see page 7) before the battery becomes fully discharged.

Remote key replacementA maximum of four remote keys can beprogrammed to operate the vehicle securitysystem. When a new or replacement remote keyis required it will be necessary for your dealer toreprogramme all the remote keys at the sametime.

Arming and disarming the system To lock the vehicle and arm the security system,close the windows, vacate the vehicle andensure the doors, bonnet and boot lid are fullyclosed before pressing the remote key button(A) while adjacent to the vehicle. The light (B) inthe key will illuminate to confirm the key isoperating.

The hazard lights will flash once and any dooroperated interior lights will go out.If any door or the boot is open, hazard lights willflash 5 times and the central door locking willnot operate.

To unlock the vehicle press the button (C) onthe remote key. The hazard lights will flashtwice, the doors will unlock and the interiorlights will come on.

Vehicle keysThe vehicle is supplied with two keys. Each keyoperates the ignition/starter switch and steeringlock, driver’s door lock and luggage door lock,the boot lid lock and the fuel filler cap lock. Eachkey contains a transponder which the securitysystem recognises. Your Main Dealer canprovide and programme more keys to yourvehicle as required.Note: When taking delivery, make a record ofthe security number on the tab attached to theKeys. This information is required should youneed to replace this key if it becomes lost ordamaged in service.Important: When starting the engine do not usethe key with other transponder keys in closeproximity, even the spare key or transponderkeys from other vehicles.Do not use the key with the key ring resting onthe key grip.

Central locking systemThe remote key is used to operate the centrallocking system. It will lock and unlock all fourdoors. However, if the remote key is inoperativeor lost, the ignition key may be used in eitherfront door to unlock that door. Note: Unlocking the vehicle doors with theignition key will not unlock the rest of thevehicle. Neither front door lock is electricallylinked to the central locking system. When thevehicle has been entered the rear doors may beunlocked using the door mounted switch shownoverleaf. Only the remote key carries out thecentral door locking function.

When the doors are unlocked by using theremote key, both front and rear doors areopened by lifting the outer door handles (C).Small indicator lights (D) behind the rear doorhandles illuminate when the taximeter is in the'for hire' mode and the vehicle is travellingbelow walking pace or stationary.

Important Note: Locking the vehicle doors withthe ignition key will not arm the security system.However, the engine immobiliser willautomatically arm when the vehicle key isremoved from the ignition/starter switch andsteering lock.Where an LTI alarm upgrade system is fitted,and the security system was armed beforeleaving the vehicle, the alarm will sound whenthe vehicle doors are opened with an ignitionkey.

Security feature 1If the vehicle has been locked by use of theremote key, using the ignition key in any frontdoor will unlock that door only.

Security feature 2When leaving the driver’s compartment to assista passenger with the swivel seat and additionalstep or wheelchair installation use the ignitionkey to lock the driver’s door.

Oil pressure indicatorGlows red when the ignition is turned onand goes out when the engine has been

started and the oil reaches working pressure.Should the indicator light not go out, or come onat any time while the engine is running, theengine should be stopped at the first availableopportunity and the reason for the low oilpressure investigated.

CAUTION: Running an engine with thewarning light on could result in seriousdamage to the engine.

Anti Lock Braking System Indicator(ABS)The ABS control module monitors the

operation of the system from ignition ON toignition OFF. If the lamp illuminates this willindicate a fault in the anti lock braking system.The braking system will continue to operateconventionally and with the same standard asvehicles not equipped with ABS.

CAUTION: If the warning light comeson whilst driving, consult your LTIDealer immediately who will arrange to

have it checked out.

Braking system indicatorThis light glows red with the ignition onand the handbrake applied, and

normally goes out when the handbrake isreleased. If the light glows at any other time withthe handbrake released, it indicates a potential

supplemented by an intermittent warningbuzzer. If the vehicle is moved with a rear dooropen, the audible warning will be continuousand of higher intensity.

Motion locks system indicatorWith the ignition on, and the vehiclestationary with the foot brake off, the

indicator will glow green when it is possible forthe rear door to be opened from the inside. Assoon as the footbrake is applied, or the vehiclemoves off, the green indicator light will go out.The doors will remain locked until the footbrakeis released (see motion door locking system -page 35)

Low fuel level warning lightIf the fuel gauge indicates low fuel or thelow fuel warning light illuminates, please

refuel immediately.Some time after the low fuellevel warning light has illuminated, when the fuelreaches a very low level, the engine will start torun unevenly as an additional warning. Proceedto the next filling station and refuel with at least8 litres of fuel. Failure to refuel will result in theengine running dry. This will lead to a difficultrestarting procedure which requires roadsideassistance. Also, serious engine damage mayoccur.

WARNING: If the green light remainson when the footbrake is held on withthe rear doors closed, or when the

vehicle is in motion, the condition should beinvestigated and corrected as soon aspossible. If the green light fails to come onwhen the footbrake is released and thevehicle is stationary, there is a fault in thesystem which should be investigated.

Air conditioning - general information

Turn off the air conditioning when starting thevehicle to reduce the starter motor load.

The air conditioning system works only whenthe engine is running. Moisture is removed fromthe incoming air during the air conditioningprocess and this assists the de-misting ofwindows. NOTE: When operating the air conditioningsystem in conditions of high humidity, extractedwater can cause a build up of ice in the systemwhich will restrict air flow. In such conditions theair recirculation lever (F) shown on page 24should be set and retained in its recirculationposition.

Both during and after use, it may be noted thatwater drains from the air-conditioning systembelow the vehicle and this is normal.

Air conditioning systems consume energy andincrease fuel consumption. It is good practiceto use the air conditioning system sparingly.

It is beneficial to ventilate a vehicle which hasbeen standing in extremes of heat, by firstopening the windows and then operating theheater blower at its maximum for a few minutes,with the temperature control set to cold, beforeclosing the windows and turning on the airconditioning system.

The air conditioning system should be operatedfor a minimum of 5 minutes each weekthroughout the year. This lubricates the internalcomponents and helps to maintain the seals inthe system and prevent loss of refrigerant.

WARNING: The air conditioningsystem uses environmentally friendly(R134A) refrigerant and no alternative

must ever be used. The air conditioningsystem must be serviced by trainedtechnicians familiar with such systems usingthe correct specialised equipment.

Special care is particularly required whenhandling refrigerant gas, so no part of the airconditioning system or its pipes should bedisconnected by untrained personnel.

CAUTION: In most countries is anoffence to deliberately releaserefrigerant gas to the atmosphere.

Moisture and foreign particles in the refrigerantwill have an adverse affect upon the satisfactoryoperation of the air conditioning system. Alwaysensure the receiver dryer is replaced by a trainedtechnician at the intervals specified in themaintenance section of this handbook.

The air conditioning compressor belt driven bythe engine must always be maintained at thecorrect tension. If the system fails to functioncorrectly and the compressor drive belt is ingood condition and correctly tensioned, seekthe help of a trained technician.

STARTING THE ENGINETurn the ignition key to position 'I' to unlock thesteering. If the steering lock remains engaged,slight movement of the steering wheel willrelease it. Apply the footbrake and check thegear selector lever is in the ‘P’ position(automatic transmission) or ‘Neutral’ (manualgearbox).Further movement of the key clockwise toposition 'lI' will switch on the 'glow' plugs toassist engine starting if required. The orangewarning light in the instrument panel may glowdepending on ambient temperature, indicatingthe 'glow' plugs are operating. The startermotor should not be operated until thewarning light goes out.

Further clockwise movement of the key againstspring pressure to the 'III' position on the switchwill then operate the starter motor. Release thekey to position 'll' immediately the engine firesand runs freely. Normally the starter motorshould only be operated for 5 to 6 seconds at atime. If the engine fails to start the first time,release the key to position 'll' until the engineand starter motor have ceased turning beforeagain turning the key to engage the startermotor. This procedure may be repeated a fewtimes, however, if the engine fails to start afterrepeated attempts, service attention is required.Note: The starter motor may have to beoperated for more than five or six seconds incold weather conditions.

To stop the engine, turn the key fully anti-clockwiseto position 'O'.

Note: If engine stalls for any reason you must turnthe key to position ‘0’ and then back through toposition ‘III’ to start the engine.The engine will not crank over or restart if you try torestart from position ‘II’

WARNING: Never remove the keywhile driving. If the key is removed thesteering will lock.

The steering lock must be disengaged (key inand turned to position 'I') before releasing thehandbrake and manoeuvring the vehiclewithout using the engine. Never push thevehicle without a qualified driver in positionand with the steering lock disengaged.Remember that brake servo assistance is notavailable unless the engine is running. Freewheeling is not recommended.

The steering lock/starter switch are designedto prevent the engine being started while thesteering lock is engaged.

Serious consequences could result fromalteration or substitution of the steeringcolumn lock/starter switch or its wiring.

CAUTION: The steering lock/starterswitch should not be lubricated.

Do not allow the engine to idle for an extendedperiod while warming-up; drive the vehicleimmediately the engine has started. Alwaysselect the appropriate gear so that the enginenever labours, and avoid hard acceleration andhigh speeds until the normal engine operatingtemperature has been achieved.

WARNING: For both security andsafety reasons, the vehicle shouldnever be left unattended with the

engine running. Before leaving the driver’sseat, always stop the engine, apply thehandbrake and engage a low gear (manualtransmission) or ‘P’ - park (automatictransmission).

BRAKESThe brakes on your new vehicle will increase inefficiency as they are used during the first fewdays of driving. During this 'bedding-in' period,the pedal pressure required will diminish slightly.Never impede brake pedal travel by using looseadditional and unsecured matting.

As a safety precaution, there are three brakehydraulic circuits which operate independently.Should one circuit fail, the other circuits willoperate though brake pedal travel will besignificantly increased. Push the brake pedaldown beyond the area of no resistance until thesecond hydraulic circuit operates the brakes.Do not 'pump' the brake pedal in an attempt torestore pressure.

If the vehicle has been washed, driven throughwater or over wet roads for long periods withoutusing the brakes, full braking power may not beavailable until the brakes dry out. As soon as itis safe to do so, dry out the brakes by applyingthe footbrake lightly several times while thevehicle is in motion. Keep the handbrakeapplied when using washing equipment.

WARNING: Never ignore the brakingsystem warning light. If the lightglows at any time with the handbrake

released, it indicates a potential conditionwith the braking system which requiresimmediate investigation before the vehicle isdriven or after safely stopping the vehicle.

Check the brake fluid level has not fallenappreciably, indicating a leak in the brakehydraulic system. If the fluid level is incorrect,the source of the leak must be correctedimmediately by an authorized LTI VehiclesDealer before the vehicle is operated further.

If the fluid level is correct, check to ensurevacuum power assistance is available .Low vacuum power assistance may beidentified by heavy brake pedal pressure. Thiscondition should be rectified by an authorisedLTI Vehicles Dealer.

If the brake fluid level and pedal effort arecorrect, and the braking system warning lightcomes on when the brake pedal is pressed, itindicates that the front brake pads are worn andshould be replaced as soon as possible.

Anti-Lock Braking SystemThis system helps to prevent the road wheelsfrom locking and skidding during emergencybraking, assisting the driver to maintain fullsteering and directional stability. The factorcontrolling ultimate stopping distance andcornering ability is tyre/road adhesion. ABSoptimises tyre/road adhesion under maximumbraking conditions though it cannot provideincreased cornering ability. There is no need forspecial braking techniques, such as pumpingthe brakes, to achieve optimum brakingdistances and control on poor or slippery roadsurfaces. Tyres must always be in goodcondition to achieve maximum adhesion. Duringnormal braking the ABS will not be activated.However, if the braking force applied begins toexceed tyre/road adhesion, the ABS willautomatically activate preventing the roadwheels from locking. In these circumstances apulsating effect will be felt from the brake pedalindicating that the system is functioning. Thepulsating effect is due to small fluctuations inbrake pressure supplied to the brakes by thesystem to maintain full tyre/road adhesion.Under severe braking on some road surfacestyre noise may be apparent even though thewheels will at no time be locked.

ABS MonitoringThe ABS control module monitors the operationof the system from ignition ON to ignition OFF. Ifthe lamp illuminates this will indicate a fault inthe anti lock braking system. The brakingsystem will continue to operate conventionallyand with the same standard as vehicles notequipped with ABS.

CAUTION: If the warning light comeson whilst driving, consult your LTIDealer immediately who will arrange

to have it checked out.

WARNING• Whilst ABS optimises tyre/roadadhesion under maximum braking

conditions it does not shorten brakingdistances but assists in maintain full steeringand directional stability. • It remains the driver’s responsibility to drivesafely according to prevailing conditions. • The fact that a vehicle is fitted with ABSmust never allow the driver to be temptedinto taking risks which could affect his/hersafety or that of other road users.• The addition of ABS cannot overcome theconsequences of trying to stop in too short adistance, cornering at high speed, or the riskof aquaplaning. • The driver should always take roadconditions into account. A slippery roadsurface always requires more brakingdistance for a given speed, even with ABS. Apossible increase in stopping distancecompared even to locked wheels may occurduring ABS operation on slushy snow, gravel,sand, heavy road markings, some heavilycorrugated or ridged road surfaces orspecially constructed noise generatingwarning road surfaces.

The interior door release (A) will open the reardoor. When the vehicle is stationary, the springloaded locking catch (B) may be used to unlock(but not lock) an individual door which has beenlocked by the central locking system.

Motion door locksAn electronically controlled mechanism locksthe rear doors automatically when the vehicle isin motion or when the driver applies thefootbrake with the vehicle stationary.

With the ignition on, the vehiclestationary and the foot brake off, the rear doorsmay be opened. A green warning light in thedriver's instrument cluster indicates the reardoors may be opened. As soon as the footbrake is applied, the reardoors will lock, the green warning light (C) in theinstrument cluster will go out and the redwarning light (D) in each rear door will come on.The doors will remain locked (red lights on) untilthe footbrake is released.

The rear doors will also lock automatically as thevehicle moves. The rear doors may be openedwhen the vehicle comes to rest and the driver'sfootbrake has been released. Again, the redindicator lights (D) indicate when the doors arelocked and extinguish when the doors may beopened.Note: The automatic door locks will emit aclicking sound as they operate. This is aninherent feature of the system.

Rear door 'open' warningWith the ignition on, flashing red warning lightsin the driver's instrument cluster, supplementedby an intermittent audible warning device,indicate when a rear door is not closed. If thevehicle is moved with a rear door open theaudible warning will be continuous and of higherintensity.Note: When the automatic motion door locksare applied, the rear doors may still be openedfrom outside. This allows occupants to bereleased from the vehicle either by someoneoutside the vehicle or by the occupantsthemselves lowering the window and operatingthe exterior door handle.

PASSENGER COMPARTMENT - SPECIAL FACILITIES

42

The passenger compartment is fitted withequipment specially designed to assistpassengers with special needs to travel in safetyand comfort. The left hand occasional seat canbe swivelled into the door aperture and used inconjunction with a simply installed additionalstep to assist the entry of passengers withrestricted movement.

Provision has also been made to accommodatemost type of hand operated and some powerassisted four wheeled wheel chairs. The rearseat cushions are hinged to assist wheel chairentry, and to allow one side of the seat to beused by another passenger, while leavingadditional space available for the wheel chairuser when required. To assist in loading a wheel chair, an integralramp is provided in the passenger compartmentfloor. The additional step mentioned previouslyalso acts as an extension for the integral rampwhere the kerb loading height is low.

It is essential that the equipment is used withcare and that the loading and unloadingprocedures are correctly followed. In all casesreassure the passenger about the equipment, byexplaining how it is to be used, and protect yourpassenger by ensuring they do not contact thedoor aperture etc., as they manoeuvre into, andout of the vehicle.

GENERAL PRECAUTIONS

1. Wheelchairs must always be carried in therecess to the left hand side of the centre divisionwith the passenger facing the rear of the vehicle.The wheelchair restraining belt, passenger seatbelt, and extender belt provided must always beused.

WARNING: Never carry a wheelchairpassenger unrestrained, positionedsideways or facing forwards as the

wheelchair and passenger cannot beadequately restrained in these positions.

2. Wheelchair passengers must always besecured with the seat belt and extender beltprovided, as the wheelchair restraint belt doesnot provide adequate security to the passenger.The seat belt should be threaded through thewheel chair as necessary so that it lies over thepassenger’s right shoulder before being clippedinto the extender belt and routed across thepassenger’s pelvis to clip into the lower buckle.The belt should never be fitted across the top ofthe wheelchair arm rests.

3. Even under light braking, acceleration andcornering, an unrestrained wheelchair occupantcan fall out of the wheelchair. While wheelchairbrakes should be applied when the chair hasbeen correctly positioned in the vehicle, they arenot an adequate restraining system.

4. Harsh driving can cause many disabledpeople to slide in their wheelchairs; often theyare unable to reposition themselves and this cancause discomfort or even physical damage. It istherefore extremely important to try to avoidhard acceleration, braking or cornering.

5. To prevent any risk of the wheelchair userfalling out of the wheelchair, the wheelchairshould only be loaded or unloaded with thepassenger facing the vehicle using the left handdoor (and ramps as required-see below).

6. Load a wheel chair passenger where theroad and kerb are level. It is always preferable topick up wheel chair passengers at a kerb so thatthe integral wheel chair ramp may be usedwithout its extension.

CAUTION: Where there is no kerb, orthe kerb height is below 125 mm (5 in.)the ramp extension must be used

both to prevent damage to the integral ramp,and to reduce the effort required to load thewheel chair.

To avoid the risk of the passenger coming intocontact with the door aperture etc., never rushthe loading process or allow a powered wheelchair to be driven into the vehicle unsupervised.


43

Additional StepAn additional step is provided and stored in theboot. When it is necessary to help thepassenger enter the vehicle, position the vehicleslightly away from the kerb so that the step canbe slid into the brackets (A) located on thevehicle chassis below the left hand rear dooraperture. Position the door closing stop bracket(B) to the right and in its upright position, beforepushing the step fully home into the brackets.When the passenger is seated correctly, pull outthe step and store it in the luggagecompartment adjacent to the driver, until it isrequired again at the end of the journey.

NOTE: Periodically clean and grease the interiorfaces of the brackets (A) to ensure the step sidesreadily into position.

Swivel seat and additional stepThe fold-down occasional seat fitted to the lefthand side of the passenger compartmentswivels round into the door aperture to provideimproved access for passengers with limitedmovement . The seat and its passenger canthen be swivelled into the vehicle and the seatlocked into position.The additional step mayalso be used in conjunction with the swivel seatas required.

Release the seat by opening both left handdoors before pulling the seat catch knob (C)situated to the front of the centre division. Pullthe seat down and round into the door apertureuntil the cushion locks in the down position andthe lock strut stops further rotation. Return theseat a few degrees until a lock stop is felt. Theseat is now safe for operation.

Assist the passenger onto the seat. To unlock,swivel both seat and passenger outwards untilthe strut stop is reached again. The seat andpassenger can then be swivelled into the vehicleuntil the latch engages.

At the end of the journey, release the seat catchand swivel the seat and its passenger into thedoor aperture until the lock strut stops furtherrotation. Return the seat a few degrees until alock stop is felt. The seat is now safe foroperation. Assist the passenger to leave thevehicle and return the seat to its normalposition, ensuring the seat retaining latch isengaged.

NOTE: The cushion will remain in the downposition until the seat is latched back to thedivision in the travelling position.

Starting the engine with jump leads

WARNING: Batteries producecombustible gases. Keep sparks,flames and cigarettes away from

batteries at all times. Avoid contact withbattery acid. In case of eye or skin contact,wash the affected area with clean water andseek medical attention immediately. Whenhandling batteries do not tilt as acid mightcome out of the ventilation openings. Wearhand and eye protection.

Battery boostingA high-speed battery charger must never beused as a starting aid.

CAUTION: The following proceduremust be observed to avoid thepossibility of irreparable damage to the

sophisticated electric and electronicequipment fitted to the vehicle. Do not allowthe cable terminals to touch either of thevehicles or the other cable terminals. Do notlean over the batteries when jump starting.

Before connecting an additional battery to boosta discharged battery in the vehicle, ensure that:

1. The booster battery is of the same nominalvoltage (12 volt) and approximately the samecapacity as the vehicle battery. The dischargedbattery should remain connected and allelectrical circuits switched off.2. The interconnecting cables are of sufficientcapacity to carry a starting current (normal carstarting jump leads are not adequate).

3. Where the booster battery is fitted to anothervehicle, the two vehicles must not be in contactwith each other and all electrical circuits on theboth vehicles should be switched off.

4. The cables should then be connected one ata time and in the following sequence.

Donor battery + (positive) to discharged battery+ (positive)Connect the second lead-to the front lifting eyeof your vehicle. On the other vehicle connect itas far away as possible from the battery of theother vehicle (to the engine block or a lifting eye)unless connecting to a stand alone battery.

Do not connect to the negative terminalof the flat battery.

Note: on connection, the vehicle security alarm(where fitted) will operate and should bedisarmed using the radio key.

5. Start the engine of the recipient vehicle in thenormal manner. Allow the engine to run at justabove idle speed (1000-1500 r.p.m.) for a fewminutes before carefully disconnecting eachlead from the recipient and booster batteries inthe reverse sequence:

From discharged battery - (negative) then fromdonor battery - (negative)

From discharged battery + (positive) then fromdonor battery + (positive)

Vehicle must be run for 15 minutes beforeturning engine off

Have the discharged battery and the vehiclecharging system checked by your Dealer at thefirst opportunity.

If the battery has been disconnectedthe vehicle may exhibit some unusualdriving characteristics for

approximately 5 miles (8km) after batteryreconnection. This is due to the automaticrelearning of the engine management systemand may be disregarded.

Used batteries contain sulphuric acidand lead. On no account must they bedisposed of in the household waste.

Use your local authorities dedicated wastedisposal facilities.

EIV 0028 EIV 0028


52

Battery chargingA high speed charger may only be used if thebattery has been completely disconnected fromthe vehicle electrical system. Certain types oflow maintenance batteries, for example the leadcalcium type, can be damaged by high speedchargers. If in doubt, consult your Dealer.When charging a battery in the vehicle from atrickle charger ensure that:

1. The charger output voltage is the same asthe nominal voltage as the battery fitted to thevehicle (12V).

2. The charger + (positive) lead is connected tothe + (positive) terminal of the battery, and thecharger - (negative) lead is connected to the -(negative) terminal of the battery.

OVERHEATING

WARNING: To avoid injury fromescaping steam and scalding coolant,the pressure relief cap of the

expansion tank must not be removed whilethe system is hot. Particular care must betaken to ensure no loose clothing (a tie, etc.)can get caught in any rotating parts whilethe bonnet is open.

Move the vehicle off the road, apply thehandbrake and hazard lights. Select neutralgear or 'P' park (automatic), apply thehandbrake and keep the engine running for afew minutes while you follow the procedurebelow.

If the charging and brake warning indicatorlights are on, the probable cause of theoverheating condition will be a broken or loosedrive belt causing the alternator to stop rotating.The engine should be stopped immediately andyou should seek assistance to recover thevehicle.

WARNING: The vehicle should not bedriven in this condition as it couldcause severe loss of coolant from the

engine with further damage.

If the electrical system charge light remains off,keep the engine running and open the windows.Turn both heater blower motors to theirmaximum speed, with the heater temperaturecontrol to maximum heat and the airconditioning system (where fitted) off.

Carefully open the bonnet (to avoid injury fromsteam, boiling coolant and rotating parts) andcheck whether there is an immediate sign of acoolant leak. (burst hose or connection etc.)

Where the cooling fan is operating and there isno apparent loss of coolant, allow the engine toidle for a few moments and then stop theengine.

Allow the engine to fully cool down with thebonnet open. If clean water is available, top upthe coolant reservoir (see cooling systemmaintenance) before proceeding to the nearestgarage so that the cause of the overheating canbe investigated.

If the cooling fan is not operating or there is aserious loss of coolant due from a burst hose orconnection, turn off the engine and seekassistance to recover the vehicle.

Do-it-yourself work. A very limited number ofsimple service operations are described on laterpages but customers are encouraged to visit theirauthorised dealer for all their needs.

It is strongly recommended that the maintenanceoperations and replacements scheduled at regularintervals and shown overleaf are carried out by aRecognised Dealer. The maintenance items andreplacements recommended by the manufacturershould be supplemented to comply with anymandatory requirements specified in the countrywhere the vehicle is operated.

The basis of LTI Vehicles service schedule for TX4,is a 10,000 mile interval. The standard servicetakes place at the first 10,000 mile interval and themajor service at the first 20,000 mile interval. Thecycle is repeated at each subsequent 10,000 and20,000 mile interval. There are also someadditional requirements that are required at otherless frequent intervals and these are described ona later page.

LTI Vehicles reserves the right to change theirservicing recommendations and maintenanceschedules in the light of operating experience. Byhaving you vehicle regularly serviced byrecognised Dealers, you will ensure any workcarried out is performed in line with the latestrecommendations issued by the manufacturer. Take the advice of your Dealer on the need formore frequent oil changes and additional brakemaintenance or any special servicing which maybe advisable if the vehicle is operated in dustyconditions or driven hard in dense traffic andsubject to high levels of tyre and brake wear.

DIESEL FUELOn no account must diesel fuel be disposed ofin the household refuse or public sewagesystem. Use your local authorised wastedisposal facilities.

PRIMING THE FUEL SYSTEMIf for any reason the fuel system has beenvented or air has entered the fuel system, thisprocedure may be followed. If the engine hasbeen allowed to run dry, this procedure may notbe sufficient to restart the engine. See warningon following page.

• Open the manual bleed valve on the fuel filter(A) approximately one full turn using a 10mmwrench.

• Attach a suitable hose to the bleed valve anddirect it into a suitable container.

• Pump the hand primer (B) on top of the fuelfilter until a solid stream of diesel fuel appearsfor a few strokes.

• Remove the hose and close the manual bleedvalve.

• Start the engine.

FUEL TANK EMPTYYour vehicle is equipped with a system thathelps prevent the complete emptying of the fueltank.

If the fuel gauge indicates low fuel or thelow fuel warning light illuminates, pleaserefuel immediately.

Some time after the low fuel level warning lighthas illuminated, when the fuel reaches a verylow level, the engine will start to run unevenly asan additional warning. Proceed to the next fillingstation and refuel with at least 8 litres of fuel.

Failure to refuel will result in the enginerunning dry. This will lead to a difficultrestarting procedure which requires

roadside assistance. Also, serious enginedamage may occur.

LUBRICATIONAlways use high quality oils and greases of thecorrect specification shown in the table below.The use of incorrect or poor quality lubricantscan lead to high oil and fuel consumption, andultimately may cause damage to components.Engine oils of the correct specification containadditives which disperse the corrosive acidsformed in combustion and prevent the formationof sludge which can block oil ways. Additionaladditives should not be used.

ENGINE OIL LEVEL CHECKThe oil consumption of your engine is influencedby many factors. New engines reach the normalvalue only after approximately 3,000 miles(5,000 km). Diesel turbocharged and highperformance engines consume slightly morethan engines of lesser performance. Under highloads, high vehicle speeds and extended idlingyour engine will also consume more oil.

Check the engine oil every week and whenrefuelling or prior to long journeys. Make surethe vehicle is standing on level ground. Switchthe ignition off and walt some minutes for theengine oil to flow back into the sump (in coldoutside temperatures or when the engine hasnot reached operating temperature this mighttake longer). A cold engine should not bestarted before checking the engine oil. Pull thedipstick out, wipe it with a clean, non-fluffycloth, re-insert it completely and pull it out oncemore.

If the level lies between the marks, there is noneed to refill. Hot oil may exceed the MAX markby some millimetres due to thermal expansion.If the level is at the MIN mark, refill using onlyengine oil meeting the correct specification.Approximately 1 litre of engine oil will raise thelevel of the oil film on the dipstick from the MINto the MAX mark. Top up to only the upper mark(MAX). For further details, refer to the chapterGeneral Information.

ENGINE OIL FILLER CAP To open, turn in the direction of the arrow andpull. Do not open the cap while the engine isrunning.

CAUTION: Do not use oil additives orother engine treatments. They areunnecessary and could, under certain

conditions, lead to engine damage which isnot covered by the LTI Vehicles warranty.

To close, turn the cap clockwise until it clicks.(Empty and used oil containers must not bedisposed of in the household refuse waste. Useyour local authorised waste disposal facilitieswhen disposing of these).

CLUTCH AND BRAKE HYDRAULIC SYSTEMS

Brake and clutch fluidsAlways use brake fluid which complies with thespecification FMVSS 116 DOT 4 to top up theclutch and braking system reservoirs. Never useany other type of brake fluid for this purpose.Brake fluid performance deteriorates in service. • Never leave brake fluid in unsealed containers

as it absorbs water quickly and can bedangerous if used in a braking system in thiscondition.

• Fluid drained from the brake and clutchsystems should always be discarded safely.

• The necessity for absolute cleanliness inhandling brake fluid and components cannotbe over-emphasised.

CAUTION: Brake fluid will damagepaint work.

Clutch fluid reservoirWipe the reservoir body clean and check theclutch fluid is to the level marked on the side ofthe reservoir body.

If additional fluid is required, remove the cap (A),remove the anti surge cup from inside thereservoir and top up to the fluid mark on thereservoir body. Replace the anti-surge cup andcheck the vent hole in the cap is clear beforereplacing the cap.

Brake fluid reservoirWipe the reservoir body clean and check thebrake fluid level relative to the 'max' and 'min'marks on the side of the reservoir body. If thelevel is below the 'max' mark, remove thereservoir cap (B) and top up the reservoir withnew brake fluid of the correct specification. Thebrake fluid level will drop in service as the brakepads and shoes wear. Any substantial loss offluid should be investigated in case of a possibleleak in the brake hydraulic system.

Brake and clutch system maintenanceUnder normal conditions brake fluid should bechanged completely every 30,000 miles or 2years (whichever occurs first). Where the vehicleis frequently subjected to severe hilly operatingconditions, involving heavy braking overprolonged periods, the brake fluid should bereplaced each year.

All fluid seals in the hydraulic system and allflexible brake hoses should be renewed at30,000 miles or 2 years (whichever occurs first).

At the same time the working surfaces of thepistons and bores of the master cylinder, frontcalipers and rear wheel cylinders should beexamined and new parts fitted where necessary.

BATTERYA maintenance free battery is fitted. For allmatters concerning battery operation consultyour authorised LTI Vehicles Dealer.

Your vehicle is equipped with alead/calcium battery. When replacingthe battery use only a lead/calcium

battery of the type listed by LTI Parts. Noother battery is to be used. Contact your LTIDealer or local authority for battery anddisposal replacement.

Cleaning battery terminals.From time to time the battery terminals shouldbe cleaned. With the ignition switch off,unclamp and pull off the terminals (remove theearth (black) terminal first. Clean the terminals,apply petroleum grease, and replace and tightenthe terminal clamps (earth terminal last). Resetthe vehicle time clock.

CAUTION: Never disconnect thebattery from the vehicle if the engineis running as this could cause severe

damage to the electrical system.Note: on connection, the vehicle security systemalarm (where fitted) will operate and should bedisarmed using the remote key or key pad.

COOLING SYSTEMWARNING: To avoid injury fromescaping steam and scalding water,the radiator cap and the pressure

relief cap of the expansion tank must not beremoved while the system is hot.

EIV 0029 EIV 0029 EIV 0039 EIV 0039

Topping upThe coolant level should be checked when theengine is cold. The coolant level should then beat the mark half way down the side of theexpansion tank (A). If necessary slowly removethe pressure relief cap (B) from the expansiontank and add the specified coolant to bring thefluid level up to the mark. Clean water may be used temporarily if coolantcontaining the specified antifreeze corrosioninhibitor (see below) is not available. Do notoverfill the expansion tank as this will result incoolant loss through the overflow pipe as thecoolant expands with increasing enginetemperature.

CAUTION: The cap fitted to theradiator is not a pressure cap. It mustnever be replaced with a pressure cap

of any type.

Frost and corrosion precautionsIn production your vehicle was filled with anantifreeze solution to minimise internal corrosionin the engine cooling and heater systems, and toprovide protection against frost damage.

Because of the different materials used in theengine and cooling system components, toprevent corrosion it is essential that only SuperPlus 2000 antifreeze solution is used in service.

This is a long life coolant and the cooling systemshould be drained, flushed through and refilledwith new antifreeze solution every 5 years.

Follow the instructions given on the antifreezecontainer to determine the mixing ratio ofantifreeze to water to be used for the lowestanticipated temperature which may beanticipated (a minimum of 50% by volume isrecommended).

Have your Dealer check the specific gravity ofthe antifreeze solution every year sometimebefore winter conditions are likely to beexperienced. The overall concentration ofantifreeze should not fall below 50% by volume.The approximate quantities of antifreezerequired are shown in the table below.

CAUTION: To protect the engine andcooling system components fromcorrosion, antifreeze solution should

always be used in the cooling system evenwhen ambient temperatures are such thatfreezing conditions are not normallyexperienced.Never use antifreeze solution in thewindscreen washer systems

Coolant Specification to meet or exceed therequirements of BS 6580/MS 9769WSS-M97B44D

TYRESSpecial 'taxi' tyres are fitted in production andshould always be fitted as replacements. Crossply and remoulded tyres should not be used.The tyre pressures should be checked eachweek (including the spare) when the tyres arecold. The recommended tyre pressures are:

Front 35 psi (2.4 bar)Rear 40 psi (2.7 bar)

See tyre size, type and rating on generalinformation page.

The condition of the tyres should also bechecked each week for any sign of damage,foreign material, or deterioration which couldaffect the operation of the vehicle.

WARNING: Driving with tyresincorrectly inflated can be hazardousand causes rapid tyre wear and

possible permanent damage to the tyrecasing.

Valves and valve caps.Valve caps should be fitted back after checkingtyre pressures as they prevent the entry of dirtand water into the valves and form an additionalair seal.


62

Tyre care and wearThe tyres should be checked frequently fordamage or wear. The greater the depth of tread,the greater the water clearing properties of thetyre, resulting in increased levels of grip.

In many markets the maximum wear levels aresubject to legal requirements. Where no suchlocal regulations exist, it is recommended thattyre tread depth should never be allowed to fallbelow 1.6 mm.

The tyres incorporate raised bars across thebottom of the treads to indicate tyre wear (A),the positions of which are marked 'TWI' roundthe shoulder of the tyre at regular intervals.These bars become flush with the tyre surfacewhen there is approximately 1.6 mm of treadremaining and the tyres are at their wear limit.

Excessive local damage may result from strikinga kerb, hitting an obstruction or deep pot hole,each of which can seriously affect the tyrecasing. Such damage will normally be visiblefollowing careful examination of the tyre treadand wheels.

Incorrect wheel alignment resulting from kerbingor hitting an obstruction etc. may result in anuneven wear pattern across the tread patternand around the whole tyre circumference.Where this is suspected, the wheel alignmentshould be checked by your Dealer.

Flints, sharp stones and other sharp objectsshould be carefully removed from the tyre treadusing a penknife or similar tool. If neglected,they may work through the tyre.

Any oil or grease which gets on to the tyresshould be cleaned off using petrol sparingly(take care when disposing of the cloth used as itwill be highly inflammable). Do not use paraffin(kerosene) which has a detrimental effect onrubber.

WINDSCREEN WIPERS AND WASHERS

Wiper bladesWindscreen wiper blades should be replaced atregular intervals or if they become damaged bythe action of road dirt and salt. Never use thewipers to clear frozen snow or ice from thewindscreen as this will damage the lips of theblade and adversely affect the wipingperformance.

To replace the blade, pull the wiper away fromthe windscreen, press the spring (B) inwardsand push the wiper blade hook (C) from thearm. Withdraw the blade and fit a new bladefollowing the reverse procedure.

CAUTION: Never lubricate thesteering lock.

Apply light oil to the moving parts of the door,bonnet, and boot hinges. Grease the bonnetrelease mechanism and safety catch.

JackOccasionally remove the jack and check itsoperation. Apply grease to the jack screw toensure it will operate correctly when required.

BODY CARE AND CLEANING

LTI Vehicles Dealers carry a wide range ofvehicle care products which have been chosenbecause of their excellent performance inmaintaining the appearance of the vehicle inservice.

Interior• Regularly vacuum or brush off the seats.

Clean stubborn marks with diluted upholsterycleaner following the instructions on thecontainer. Avoid a rubbing action whencleaning upholstery.

• Clean seat belts and head lining by spongingwith warm water, using a non detergent soap.Never use cleaners incorporating bleaches,dye chemical cleaners or detergents on seatbelts as this will affect their performancecharacteristics adversely. Allow seat belts todry naturally.

• Clean carpets with a brush or vacuumcleaner. Occasionally clean carpets withdiluted upholstery cleaner. Rubber matsshould be cleaned with water.

• Clean the windows with a clean soft cloth andglass cleaner, or chamois leather. The rearscreen should always be cleaned with care.To avoid damage to the heating elements,cleaning should be in line with and not acrossthe heating wires.

• Clean the acrylic screen of the centre divisionwith a dilute solution of liquid dish washingsoap. Do not use glass cleaners on acrylicsurfaces.

• Clean trim panels with a soft damp cloth.Remove stubborn marks with fascia andbumper cleaner.


65

ExteriorGreat care is taken in production to useprocesses and materials which minimise theeffects of corrosion.

However, there are a wide range of possiblecauses of damage to the painted surfaces whichare not the responsibility of the manufacturer.These include stone and gravel impact, naturaland industrial fall out such as bird droppingsand tree sap, road debris, oil, tar and salt usedfor de-icing roads etc. all of which can causepaint and body damage to your vehicle.

The detrimental effects of body damage can bereduced by simple care and attention assuggested below:

• Regularly wash the body work and wheel trimswith a soft sponge and plenty of water using agood quality 'wax and wash' shampoo. Neveruse dish washing detergents or householdcleaning fluids as they may damage the paintfinish.When the vehicle is particularly dirty, beforestarting detailed cleaning, carefully wash offany excess dirt and grit with a hose orwatering can to prevent scratching the paintsurface finish.

CAUTION: High pressure washingequipment (particularly when the waterjet is applied close to the vehicle) can

damage parts of the vehicle and causepermanent leaks due to the distortion ofseals. Care should be taken to avoid directing thewater jet on the following areas of thevehicle:

Wheel hubs and all braking systemcomponents and handbrake cablesFuel filler cap and sealExhaust system and outletDoor and body seals, seams and grommets, including the lights and hire sign

Steam cleaning is not recommended as thiscan affect the underbody protection andother components. When necessary, hot pressure washing witha maximum temperature of 40°C and 80 p.s.i(55 bars), should be used to clean theunderside of the vehicle.

• Use a proprietary car polish from time to timeto retain the appearance and lustre of the paintwork. Use a high quality wax polish every monthto protect and increase the scratch resistance ofthe paint finish.Note: scratch marks always tend to be morevisible on dark coloured vehicles and regularwax polishing will help to retain the paint lustre.

The headlight lenses are made of acrylicmaterial. Use a good quality ‘wax and wash’shampoo to clean the headlights. Do not useglass cleaners on acrylic surfaces, particularlythe interior partition glazing.

• Remove salts, road oil and tar, tree sap andbird droppings etc. and other damagingmaterials as soon as possible to prevent themfrom damaging the painted surfaces (use petrolor white spirit to remove tar from paint work).

• Promptly repair and touch up any damagedue to minor scratches and stone chipping etc.

• Ensure any accident repair work is performedby (or arranged through) an LTI Dealer so thatthe manufacturer’s recommended repairprocedures, corrosion protection materials andgenuine LTI parts are always used.

• Use LTI glass cleaner to remove windscreensmears. Clean the front and rear bumpers usingLTI fascia and bumper cleaner.

Underbonnet Fuses and Relays


71

Underbonnet Fuses and Relays There is an underbonnet fuse box located underthe bonnet near the battery. It is opened bydepressing the clips moulded into each end ofthe cover which should be lifted away. Thefuses located there protect heavy currentcircuits including the entire cabin fuse box,engine control circuits and electronic controlmodules. If any of these fuses ‘blows’ this mayindicate a serious concern and we advise you totake your vehicle to an authorised LTI VehiclesDealer immediately.

Each fuse is marked with its fuse rating andshould be pulled directly out of position forexamination. If the fuse wire has broken, fit areplacement with the same rating. Whenreplacing a fuse, turn off the switch controllingthe equipment it protects.

If a newly fitted fuse 'blows' immediately it isfitted or when the equipment it protects isswitched on, and the cause of the problem isnot immediately apparent, the equipment shouldbe examined by your Dealer.

Cabin fusebox The fuses used have the following ratings andcolour codes:

5 A - orange 20 A - yellow10 A - red 25 A - white15 A - blue

Underbonnet Fuses40A - Orange 50A - Red60 A - Blue

WARNING: Fuses are fitted to protectthe vehicle wiring from overheatingand the consequential risk of fire. A

'blown' fuse must only be replaced with afuse of the correct rating as shown on thefuse box label. Never use a fuse of a higherrating as this could lead to damage toelectrical equipment or cause the wiring tooverheat. Do not attempt to repair a brokenfuse.

For the avoidance of doubt and followingquestions received from various parties, LTIVehicles confirms that all LTI Dealers are free toobtain original replacement parts for LTIvehicles produced by other motor vehiclemanufacturers or by component manufacturersfor other motor vehicles, from the relevantdistributors for such parts, or replacement partsof matching quality from a third undertaking oftheir choice. LTI Dealers are free to use theaforesaid parts for the repair or maintenance ofLTI vehicles, without prejudice to LTI Vehiclesrequiring the use of LTI-approved replacementparts for repairs carried out under warranty, freeservicing and vehicle recall work.

LTI Vehicles also confirms that the use of nonLTI-approved replacement parts or parts ofmatching quality will not normally invalidate awarranty claim unless those parts are seen tohave been the cause of the defect.

SERVICE HISTORYTo ensure that LTI Vehicles and the repairing LTIDealer have sufficient information to supportany warranty claim (see also facing page), yourservice history for each routine maintenanceservice must consist of the following:

● An itemised invoice from a legitimate VATregistered repairer with the customers name,address and the vehicle identity (Registrationnumber or VIN number); the date and mileageat which each service has been performed;part numbers of genuine LTI parts used;quantities and specifications of oils and fluidsused; labour time & cost; the serial numbersof any parts used that carry such numbers.

● A fully marked checklist of the tasks carriedout as described in the MaintenanceRequirements section of this handbook, withthe customers name, address and the vehicleidentity (Registration number or VIN number)and signed off by the repairing technician.

The vehicle warranty does not cover thefollowing:

● The routine replacement of items which aresubject to wear, and which are affected bythe operating conditions of an individualvehicle, examples of which include (but arenot confined to) the following:

These items will only be replaced under thewarranty arrangements if there is amanufacturing defect in workmanship ormaterials in the component concerned.

● Adjustments which may be necessary fromtime to time and which depend on the way inwhich the vehicle is operated, for example,clutch and brake adjustment, wheelalignment and balancing, headlightalignment and engine tuning.

LTI VEHICLES AND DGB STERLING LIMITED DINITROL® 6-YEAR ANTI-CORROSION PROGRAMME

During the manufacture of your vehicle it was protected against inside-to-outside corrosion using DINITROL® anti-corrosion materials provided by

DGB Sterling Limited.

Following the initial registration of your vehicle, information was passed to DGB Sterling Limited for them to register your details for the 6-year

Anti-Corrosion programme for your vehicle. Full compliance with this programme enables DGB Sterling Limited to guarantee your vehicle against

inside-to-outside corrosion for a period of six years from the date of first registration.

Within approximately six weeks from the date of first registration of your vehicle you should receive from DGB Sterling Limited a guarantee booklet

which will explain in more detail the full terms and conditions of this 6 year anti-corrosion programme. If you do not receive this information, please

contact your supplying Dealer without delay so that this can be corrected.

For the 6-year Anti-Corrosion programme to remain valid, body service retreatments must be carried out at 1, 3 and 5 years from the date of

registration of the vehicle. These have to take place at an LTI Vehicles and DGB Sterling Limited approved retreatment centre who will then affix the

DINITROL® guarantee treatment validation stamp to the guarantee booklet. As part of the DGB Sterling Limited service package, before the first

body service is due, they will send you a reminder to have the anti- corrosion retreatment carried out.

In line with all other routine servicing, the body service retreatment will be charged for, but we are certain that you appreciate that this will add to the

value of the warranty package that accompanies all LTI Vehicles.

May we also remind you that if any parts of the bodywork covered by the guarantee are replaced or repaired following accident damage, these parts

must be treated at the time of repair using DINITROL® anti-corrosion materials for the guarantee to remain valid.

This guarantee is in addition to and does not in any way affect or limit the statutory rights of the owner of the vehicle.
