- Check the condition and pressure of the tyres.
- Check the coolant fluid level regularly.
- Protect the vehicle interior from the sun when parked and open windows and doors before setting off.
- Close the windows once you are on the motorways and main roads and only use the air conditioning to keep cool.
- Whenever possible, avoid exceeding anything more than a 10°C difference between the outside and interior temperature.
