GENERAL SAFETY HINTS<br />

1. Use the correct spanner or driver for all fastening. When fitting<br />

new fastenings ensure the thread size is correct. Metric<br />

fastenings are predominantly, but not exclusively used. —<br />

2. Never walk under a car unless it is properly supported by stands.<br />

3. Make sure jacks or stands are positioned safely and where they<br />

will not cause damage to the car.<br />

4. Always disconnect the battery before working on electrical<br />

components or wiring.<br />

5. When working in the engine compartment or under the car make —<br />

sure the engine cannot be started accidentally.<br />

6. Keep hands and clothing clear of electrically operated fans even —<br />

when the ignition is OFF.<br />

7. Take care not to inhale dust from brake pads — it contains<br />

asbestos which is a health hazard. I<br />

8. Treat gasoline (petrol) with great respect — avoid any sort of<br />

spark or flame. Do not start syphoning by mouth; drain fuel into<br />

a closed container.<br />

LEGISLATION REQUIREMENTS<br />

Most countries have stringent regulations governing the design and<br />

manufacture of cars, aimed mainly at maintaining standards of<br />

safety, noise and pollution. De Lorean cars conform to the<br />

homologation specifications required in the countries to which they<br />

are distributed.<br />

Alterations to the car after purchase — by changing settings or<br />

adjustments, by addition of unapproved parts, or the fitting of<br />

unsuitable replacement parts — can result in deviation from the<br />

agreed specification. Such deviations can have legal consequences<br />

and you are therefore advised not to make alterations and to ensure<br />

that replacement parts are to the original specification.<br />

SPECIFICATION CHANGES<br />

The Company reserves the right to change the specification of the<br />

car from time to time without notice.<br />

This is required in order to achieve the Company's objective for<br />

constant improvement. Before carrying out any repair refer to latest<br />

issue of the Service Bulletins, which are designed to advise any _.<br />

changes in specification or repair technique.<br />
