This is done using the remote con-

trol: please refer to the information on

“Radio frequency remote control: gen-

eral information” in Section 1.

In some cases, the radio frequency

remote control may not work:

– if the remote control battery is worn

or flat, etc.

– if appliances are operating on the

same frequency as the remote con-

trol (mobile phone, etc.);

– vehicle located in a high electromag-

netic radiation zone.

It is then possible:

– use the radio frequency remote con-

trol key or the emergency key to

stopped, press switch 2 for more than

five seconds to lock the other opening

elements.

Driver’s responsibility

If you decide to keep the

doors locked when you are

driving, remember that it

may be more difficult for those as-

sisting you to gain access to the

passenger compartment in the

event of an emergency.

1.10

Operating principle

After the vehicle is started, the system

automatically locks the doors when you

are driving at approximately12 mph

(20 km/h)

The door can be unlocked:

– by pressing the button 1 to unlock

the doors;

– by opening a front door (vehicle sta-

tionary).

Note: If a door is opened or closed, it

will automatically lock again when the

vehicle reaches a speed of 12 mph

(20 km/h).

Activating/deactivating the

function

With the engine running, press the

button 1 for approximately 5 seconds,

until you hear a warning beep.

Operating faults

If you experience an operating fault

(no automatic locking, the indicator

light incorporated in button 1 does not

light up when trying to lock the open-

ing elements, etc.), firstly check that the

opening elements are properly closed.

If they are properly closed, contact an

authorised dealer.

RENAULT ANTI-INTRUDER DEVICE (RAID)

Driver’s responsibility

If you decide to keep the

doors locked when you are

driving, remember that it

may be more difficult for those as-

sisting you to gain access to the

passenger compartment in the

event of an emergency.

1.11

Heated seats

With the ignition on, press the switch 5

for the seat desired. The indicator light

in the switch lights up.

The system, which has a thermostat,

regulates the heating and deactivates it

if necessary.

To move the seat forwards or

backwards

Lift handle 4 to unlock. Release the

handle once the seat is in the correct

position and ensure that the seat is

locked.

To raise or lower the seat

base

Move the lever 3 as many times as nec-

essary upwards or downwards.

FRONT SEATS

For safety reasons, carry

out any adjustments when

the vehicle is not being

driven.

Nothing should be placed on the

floor (area in front of driver) as such

objects may slide under the pedal

during braking manoeuvres, thus

obstructing its use.

To tilt the seatback

Depending on the vehicle, activate con-

trol 1 or 2 and tilt the seatback to the

desired position.

We would advise you not

to recline the seatbacks too

far to ensure that the effec-

tiveness of the seat belts is

not reduced.

1.12

Always wear your seat belt when trav-

elling in your vehicle. You must also

comply with the legislation of the par-

ticular country you are in.

SEAT BELTS (1/3)

Incorrectly adjusted or

twisted seat belts may

cause injuries in the event

of an accident.

Use one seat belt per person,

whether child or adult.

Even pregnant women should wear

a seat belt. In this case, ensure that

the lap belt is not exerting too much

pressure on the abdomen, but do

not allow any slack.

Before starting, first adjust your driv-

ing position, then ask all occupants

to adjust their seat belts to ensure

optimum protection.

Adjusting your driving

position

– Sit well back in your seat (having

first removed your coat or jacket).

This is essential to ensure your back

is positioned correctly;

– adjust the distance between the

seat and the pedals. Your seat

should be as far back as possible

while still allowing you to depress

the clutch pedal fully. The seatback

should be adjusted so that your arms

are slightly bent when you hold the

steering wheel;

– adjust the height of the seat. This

adjustment allows you to select the

seat position which offers you the

best possible view;

– adjust the position of the steering

wheel.

Adjusting the seat belts

Sit with your back firmly against the

seatback.

Shoulder strap 1 should be as close as

possible to the base of the neck but not

on it.

Lap belt 2 should be worn flat over the

thighs and against the pelvis.

The belt should be worn so that it is

as close as possible to your body, i.e.:

avoid wearing heavy clothing or keep-

ing bulky objects under the belts, etc.

Make sure that the rear bench seat

is locked in position correctly so that

the rear seat belts will operate effi-

ciently. Refer to the information on

the “Rear bench seat: functions” in

Section 3.

1.13

SEAT BELTS (2/3)

Front seatbelt reminder

warning light A

This lights up on the central display

when the engine is started then, if the

driver’s or front passenger’s seat belt (if

this seat is occupied) is not fastened, it

flashes and a beep sounds for around

2 minutes.

Note: an object placed on the passen-

ger seat base may activate the warning

light in some cases.

Locking

Unwind the belt slowly and smoothly

and ensure that buckle 3 locks into

catch 5 (check that it is locked by pull-

ing on buckle 3).

If the belt jams, allow it to return slightly

before attempting to unwind it again.

If your seat belt is completely jammed,

pull slowly, but firmly, so that just over

3 cm unwinds. Allow it to return slightly

before attempting to unwind it again.

If there is still a problem, contact an ap-

proved dealer.

Rear seatbelt reminder alert B

Warning light

ß comes on on the

central display when the engine is

started, and goes off after around

30 seconds.

Warning lights 6 and 7 show the status

of the rear seatbelts:

– red: seatbelt unfastened;

– green: seatbelt fastened.

If the right and/or left rear passenger

seatbelt is unfastened once the vehicle

has reached around 12 mph (20 km/h),

warning light

ß flashes and the in-

dicator for the relevant seat turns red,

alongside a beep.

Check that the rear passengers are

wearing seat belts and that the number

of seat belts shown as fastened cor-

responds to the number of rear bench

seat places occupied.

Unlocking

Press button 4 and the seat belt will be

rewound by the inertia reel. Guide the

belt.

1.14

SEAT BELTS (3/3)

Check that the rear seat

belts are positioned and

operating correctly each

time the rear bench seat is

moved.

Rear seat belts 8

The belts are locked, unlocked and

adjusted in the same way as the front

belts.

The following information applies to the vehicle’s front and rear seat belts.

– No modification may be made to the component parts of the originally

fitted restraint system: seat belts, seats and their mountings. For spe-

cial operations (e.g. fitting child seats), contact an authorised dealer.

– Do not use devices which allow any slack in the belts (e.g. clothes

pegs, clips, etc.): a seat belt which is worn too loosely may cause injury in the

event of an accident.

– Never wear the shoulder strap under your arm or behind your back.

– Never use the same belt for more than one person and never hold a baby or

child on your lap with your seat belt around them.

– The belt should never be twisted.

– Following an accident, have the seat belts checked and replaced if necessary.

Always replace your seat belts as soon as they show any signs of wear.

– When putting back the rear bench seat, make sure the seat belts are correctly

positioned so that they can be used properly.

– Make sure that the buckle is inserted into the appropriate catch.

– Ensure that no objects are placed in the area around the seat belt catch as

they could prevent it from being properly secured.

– Make sure the seat belt catch is properly positioned (it should not be hidden

away, crushed or flattened by people or objects).

1.15

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (1/4)

– Have the entire restraint

system checked following

an accident.

– No operation whatso-

ever is permitted on any part of

the system (pretensioners, air

bags, computers, wiring) and the

system components must not

be reused on any other vehicle,

even if identical.

– To avoid incorrect triggering of

the system which may cause

injury, only qualified personnel

from an approved Dealer may

work on the pretensioner and air

bag system.

– The electric trigger system may

only be tested by a specially

trained technician using special

equipment.

– When the vehicle is scrapped,

contact an approved Dealer for

disposal of the pretensioner and

air bag gas generators.

Depending on the vehicle, they will con-

sist of:

– front seat belt inertia reel preten-

sioners;

– chest-level load limiters;

– air bags for driver and front pas-

senger.

These systems are designed to act in-

dependently or together when the vehi-

cle is subjected to a frontal impact.

Depending on the severity of the

impact, the system can trigger:

– seat belt locking;

– the seat belt inertia reel pretensioner

(which engages to correct seat belt

slack);

– airbags.

Pretensioners

The pretensioners hold the seat belt

against the body, holding the occupant

more securely against the seat, thus in-

creasing the seat belt’s efficiency.

With the ignition on, following a signif-

icant frontal impact and depending on

the severity of the impact, the system

may trigger the seat belt inertia reel

pretensioner 1, which instantly retracts

the seat belt.

1.16

Load limiter

Above a certain severity of impact, this

mechanism is used to limit the force of

the belt against the body so that it is at

an acceptable level.

Airbags for driver and front

passenger

Fitted to the driver and passenger side.

The presence of this equipment is in-

dicated by the word “Air bag” on the

steering wheel and dashboard (air bag

zone A) and, depending on the vehicle,

a symbol on the lower section of the

windscreen.

Each air bag system consists of:

– an air bag and gas generator fitted

on the steering wheel for the driver

and in the dashboard for the front

passenger;

– an electronic unit for system monitor-

ing which controls the gas generator

electrical trigger system;

– a single

å warning light on the

instrument panel.

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (2/4)

The air bag system uses

pyrotechnic principles. This

explains why, when the air

bag inflates, it will gener-

ate heat, produce smoke (this does

not mean that a fire is about to start)

and make a noise upon detonation.

In a situation where an air bag is

required, it will inflate immediately

and this may cause some minor, su-

perficial grazing to the skin or other

problems.

1.17

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (3/4)

Operating faults

This warning light 2 å will light up

on the instrument panel when the igni-

tion is switched on and then go out after

a few seconds.

If it does not light up when the ignition

is switched on, or comes on when the

engine is running, there is a fault in the

system.

Contact your approved Dealer as soon

as possible. Your protection will be re-

duced until this fault is rectified.

Operation

This system is only operational when

the ignition is switched on.

In a severe frontal impact, the air bags

inflate rapidly, cushioning the impact

of the driver’s head and chest against

the steering wheel and of the front pas-

senger against the dashboard. The air

bags then deflate immediately so that

the passengers are not in any way hin-

dered from leaving the vehicle.

1.18

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (4/4)

Warnings concerning the driver’s air bag

– Do not modify the steering wheel or the steering wheel boss.

– Do not cover the steering wheel boss under any circumstances.

– Do not attach any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to the steering wheel boss.

– The steering wheel must not be removed (except by qualified personnel from our Network).

– When driving, do not sit too close to the steering wheel. Sit with your arms slightly bent (see the information on “Adjusting

your driving position” in Section 1). This will allow sufficient space for the air bag to deploy correctly and be fully effective.

Warnings concerning the passenger air bag

– Do not attach or glue any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to the dashboard on or near the air bag.

– Do not place anything between the dashboard and the passenger (pet, umbrella, walking stick, parcels, etc.).

– The passenger must not put his or her feet on the dashboard or seat as there is a risk that serious injuries may occur. In

general, parts of the body should be kept away from the dashboard (knees, hands, head, etc.).

– The devices in addition to the front passenger seat belt should be reactivated as soon as a child seat is removed, to ensure

the protection of the passenger in the event of an impact.

A REAR-FACING CHILD SEAT MUST NOT BE FITTED TO THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT UNLESS

THE ADDITIONAL RESTRAINT SYSTEMS, I.E. THE PASSENGER AIR BAG, ARE DEACTIVATED.

(refer to the information on “Child safety: deactivating/activating the front passenger air bag” in Section 1)

All of the warnings below are given so that the air bag is not obstructed in any way when it is inflated and also to prevent

the risk of serious injuries caused by items which may be dislodged when the air bag inflates.

1.19

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE REAR SIDE SEAT BELTS

Force limiter

Above a certain severity of impact, this

mechanism is used to limit the force of

the belt against the body so that it is at

an acceptable level.

– Have the entire restraint

system checked following

an accident.

– No operation whatsoever

is permitted on any part of the

system (air bags, electronic con-

trol units, wiring) and the system

components must not be reused

on any other vehicle, even if iden-

tical.

– Only qualified personnel from

our Network may work on the air

bags; otherwise the system may

trigger accidentally and cause

injury.

1.20

Side Airbags

This airbag may be fitted to each of the

front seats and is activated at the sides

of the seats (door side) to protect the

occupants in the event of a severe side

impact.

SIDE PROTECTION DEVICES

Warning relating to the side airbag

– Fitting seat covers: seats equipped with an airbag require covers spe-

cifically designed for your vehicle. Contact an approved Dealer to find out

if these covers are available. The use of any covers other than those de-

signed for your vehicle (and including those designed for another vehicle) may

affect the operation of the airbags and reduce your protection.

– Do not place any accessories, objects or even pets between the seatback, the

door and the internal fittings. Do not cover the seatback with any items such as

clothes or accessories. This may prevent the air bag from operating correctly

or cause injury when the airbag is deployed.

– No work or modification whatsoever may be carried out on the seat or internal

fittings, except by qualified personnel from an approved Dealer.

Depending on the vehicle, a mark-

ing on the windscreen informs you

of the presence of additional means

of restraint (air bags, pretensioners,

etc.) in the passenger compartment.

1.21

ADDITIONAL METHODS OF RESTRAINT

The airbag is designed to complement the action of the seat belt. Both the air bags and seat belts are integral parts of

the same protection system. It is therefore essential to wear seat belts at all times. If seat belts are not worn, the oc-

cupants are exposed to the risk of serious injury in the event of an accident. It may also increase the risk of minor su-

perficial injuries occurring when the airbag is deployed, although such minor injuries are always possible with air bags.

If the vehicle should overturn or in the event of a rear impact, however severe, the pretensioners and airbags are not always

triggered. Impacts to the underside of the vehicle, e.g. from pavements, potholes or stones, can all trigger these systems.

– No work or modification whatsoever may be carried out on any part of the airbag system (airbags, pretensioners, computer,

wiring harness, etc.), except by qualified Network personnel.

– To ensure that the system is in good working order and to avoid accidental triggering of the system which may cause injury,

only qualified Network personnel may work on the airbag system.

– As a safety precaution, have the airbag system checked if your vehicle has been involved in an accident, or is stolen or

broken into.

– When selling or lending the vehicle, inform the user of these points and hand over this handbook with the vehicle.

– When scrapping your vehicle, contact your approved Dealer for disposal of the gas generator(s).

All of the warnings below are given so that the airbag is not obstructed in any way when it is inflated and also to prevent

the risk of serious injuries caused by items which may be dislodged when it inflates.

1.22

Power Assisted Steering

Never drive with an inadequately

charged battery.

Variable power assisted

steering

The variable power assisted steering

system is equipped with an electronic

control system which alters the level of

assistance to suit the vehicle speed.

Steering is made easier when ma-

noeuvring (for added comfort) while the

force needed to steer increases pro-

gressively as the speed rises (for en-

hanced safety at high speeds).

Steering wheel height

adjustment

Lower the lever 1 and place the steer-

ing wheel in the required position; raise

the lever beyond the point of resistance

to lock the steering wheel.

Make sure that the steering wheel is

correctly locked.

For safety reasons, only

adjust the steering wheel

when the vehicle is station-

ary.

STEERING WHEEL/POWER-ASSISTED STEERING

Never switch off the igni-

tion when travelling down-

hill, and avoid doing so in

normal driving (assistance

is not provided).

With the engine switched off, or if

there is a system fault, it is still pos-

sible to turn the steering wheel. The

force required will be greater.

Never leave the steering wheel at

full lock while stationary.

1.23

CHILD SAFETY: General information (1/2)

Carrying children

Children, and adults, must be correctly

seated and strapped in for all journeys.

The children being carried in your vehi-

cle are your responsibility.

A child is not a miniature adult. Children

are at risk of specific injuries as their

muscles and bones have not yet fin-

ished growing. The seat belt alone

would not provide suitable protection.

Use an approved child seat and ensure

you use it correctly.

A collision at 30 mph

(50 km/h) is the same as fall-

ing a distance of 10 metres.

Transporting a child without

a restraint is the equivalent of allow-

ing him or her to play on a fourth-

floor balcony without railings.

Never travel with a child held in your

arms. In the event of an accident,

you will not be able to keep hold of

the child, even if you yourself are

wearing a seat belt.

If your vehicle has been involved in

a road accident, replace the child

seat and have the seat belts and

ISOFIX anchorage points checked.

To prevent the doors being

opened, use the “Child

safety” device (refer to the

information on “Opening

and closing the doors” in Section 1).

Driver’s responsibility

when parking or stopping

the vehicle

Never leave an animal,

child or adult who is not self-suffi-

cient alone on your vehicle, even for

a short time.

They may pose a risk to themselves

or to others by starting the engine,

activating equipment such as the

electric windows or by locking the

doors.

Also, in hot and/or sunny weather,

please remember that the tempera-

ture inside the passenger compart-

ment increases very quickly.

RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS

INJURY.

1.24

CHILD SAFETY: General information (2/2)

Using a child seat

The level of protection offered by the

child seat depends on its ability to re-

strain your child and on its installation.

Incorrect installation compromises the

protection it offers the child in the event

of harsh braking or an impact.

Before purchasing a child seat, check

that it complies with the regulations for

the country you are in and that it can

be fitted in your vehicle. Consult an ap-

proved dealer to find out which seats

are recommended for your vehicle.

Before fitting a child seat, read the

manual and respect its instructions. If

you experience any difficulties during

installation, contact the manufacturer

of the equipment. Keep the instructions

with the seat.

Set a good example by always fas-

tening your seat belt and teaching

your child:

– to strap themselves in correctly;

– to always get in and out of the car

at the kerb, away from busy traf-

fic.

Do not use a second-hand child

seat or one without an instruction

manual.

Check that there are no objects in

the vicinity of the child seat which

could impede its operation.

Never leave a child unat-

tended in the vehicle.

Check that your child is

always strapped in and that

the belt or safety harness used is

correctly set and adjusted. Avoid

wearing bulky clothing which could

cause the belts to slacken.

Never let your child put their head or

arms out of the window.

Check that the child is in the correct

position for the entire journey, espe-

cially if asleep.

1.25

CHILD SAFETY: choosing a child seat

Rear-facing child seats

A baby’s head is, proportionally, heavier

than that of an adult and its neck is very

fragile. Transport the child in this po-

sition for as long as possible (until the

age of 2 at the very least). It supports

both the head and the neck.

Choose a bucket type seat for best side

protection and change it as soon as the

child’s head is higher than the shell.

Forward-facing child seats

The child’s head and abdomen need to

be protected as a priority. A forward-fac-

ing child seat which is firmly attached to

the vehicle will reduce the risk of impact

to the head. Ensure your child travels in

a forward-facing seat with a harness for

as long as their size permits.

Choose a bucket type seat for optimum

side protection.

Booster cushions

From 15 kg or 4 years, the child can

travel using a booster seat, which will

enable the seat belt to be adapted to

suit his/her size and shape. The boos-

ter seat cushion must be fitted with

guides to position the seat belt on the

child’s thighs rather than the stomach.

It is recommended that you use a seat-

back fitted with a belt strap guide which

can be adjusted in terms of height to

position the seat belt in the centre of the

shoulder. It must never rest on the neck

or on the arm.

Choose a bucket type seat for optimum

side protection.

1.26

CHILD SAFETY: choosing a child seat mounting (1/3)

There are two ways of attaching child

seats: via the seat belt or using the

ISOFIX system.

Attachment via the seat belt

The seat belt must be adjusted to

ensure that it is effective in the event of

harsh braking or an impact.

Ensure that the strap paths indicated

by the child seat manufacturer are re-

spected.

Always check that the seat belt is cor-

rectly fastened by pulling it up, then

pulling it out fully whilst pressing on the

child seat.

Check that the seat is correctly held by

moving it from side to side and back

to front: the seat should remain firmly

fixed.

Check that the child seat has not been

installed at an angle and that it is not

resting against a window.

Do not use the child seat

if it may unfasten the seat

belt restraining it: the base

of the seat must not rest on

the buckle and/or catch of the seat

belt.

The seat belt must never

be twisted or the tension

relieved. Never pass the

shoulder strap under the

arm or behind the back.

Check that the seat belt has not

been damaged by sharp edges.

If the seat belt does not operate nor-

mally, it will not protect the child.

Consult an approved dealer. Do not

use this seat until the seat belt has

been repaired.

No modifications may be

made to the component

parts of the restraint system

(seat belts, ISOFIX and

seats and their mountings) originally

fitted.

Attachment using the ISOFIX

system

Authorised ISOFIX child seats are ap-

proved in accordance with regulation

ECE-R44 in one of the three following

cases:

– ISOFIXuniversal 3-point forward-fac-

ing seat;

– ISOFIXsemi-universal 2-point seat;

– specific.

For the latter two, check that your child

seat can be installed by consulting the

list of compatible vehicles.

Attach the child seat with the ISOFIX

locks, if these are provided. The ISOFIX

system allows quick, easy, safe fitting.

The ISOFIX system consists of 2 rings

and, in some cases, a third ring.

Before using an ISOFIX

child seat that you pur-

chased for another vehicle,

check that its installation is

authorised. Consult the list of ve-

hicles which can be fitted with the

seat from the equipment manufac-

turer.

1.27

CHILD SAFETY: choosing a child seat mounting (2/3)

The two rings 1 are located between

the seatback and the seat base and are

identified by a marking. Use the access

guides 2 of the child seat to ease it into

place and lock it into the rings 1.

The third ring 3 or 5 is used to attach

the upper strap on some child seats.

Rear seats

Remove the luggage compartment

cover to pass the belt 4 between the

seatback and the luggage compart-

ment cover (refer to the information on

the “Luggage compartment cover” in

Section 3).

The ISOFIX anchorage points have been exclusively designed for child seats with the ISOFIX system. Never fit a dif-

ferent type of child seat, seat belt or other objects to these anchorage points.

Check that nothing is obstructing the anchorage points.

If your vehicle has been involved in a road accident, have the ISOFIX anchorage points checked and replace your

child seat.

Fix the hook on the ring 5, identified by

the

 symbol on the back of the seat

in question and located under the boot

carpet.

1.28

Check that the seatback

of the forward-facing child

seat is in contact with the

seatback of the vehicle

seat. In this case, the child seat may

not always rest on the seat base of

the vehicle seat.

Front passenger seat

(depending on the vehicle)

Attach the belt hook 4 to the ring 3.

All seats

Pull the belt 3 so that the back of the

child seat comes into contact with the

back of the vehicle seat.

CHILD SAFETY: choosing a child seat mounting (3/3)

1.29

CHILD SAFETY: fitting a child seat, general information (1/2)

Some seats are not suitable for fitting

child seats. The diagram on the follow-

ing page shows you how to attach a

child seat.

The types of child seat indicated may

not be available. Before using a differ-

ent child seat, check with the manufac-

turer that it can be fitted.

Ensure that the child seat

or the child’s feet do not

prevent the front seat from

locking correctly. Refer to

the information on the “Front seat”

in Section 1.

Check that when installing the child

seat in the vehicle it is not at risk of

coming loose from its base.

If you have to remove the headrest,

check that it is correctly stored so

that it does not come loose under

harsh braking or impact.

Always attach the child seat to the

vehicle even if it is not in use so that

it does not come loose under harsh

braking or impact.

In the front seat

The laws concerning children travel-

ling in the front passenger seat differ in

every country. Consult the legislation in

force and follow the indications on the

diagram on the following page.

Before fitting a child seat in this seat (if

authorised):

– lower the seat belt as far as possible;

– move the seat as far back as possi-

ble;

– gently tilt the seatback away from

vertical (approximately 25°);

– on equipped vehicles, raise the seat

base as far as possible.

RISK OF DEATH OR

SERIOUS INJURY: Before

installing a child seat on the

front passenger seat, check

that the airbag has been deacti-

vated (please refer to “Child safety:

front passenger airbag deactivation

and activation” in Section 1).

After installing the child seat, if neces-

sary, the seat may be advanced (so as

to leave enough space in the rear seats

for passengers or other child seats).

For a rear-facing child seat, do not let

it touch the dashboard or move it to the

furthest forward position.

Do not change other settings after in-

stalling the child seat.

1.30

CHILD SAFETY: fitting a child seat, general information (2/2)

In the rear side seat

A carrycot can be installed across the

vehicle and will take up at least two

seats.

Position the child with their feet nearest

the door.

Move the front seat as far forward as

possible to install a rear-facing child

seat, then move back the seat in front

as far as it will go, although without al-

lowing it to come into contact with the

child seat.

For the safety of the child in the for-

ward-facing seat, do not move the seat

in front back past the middle of the

runner, do not tilt the seatback too far

(maximum of 25°) and raise the seat as

much as possible.

In all situations, remove the rear head-

rests (refer to the information on the

“Rear headrests” in Section 3). This

must be done before fitting the child

seat.

Check that the forward-facing child seat

is resting against the back of the vehi-

cle seat.

Fit the child seat in a rear

seat wherever possible.

Special note

When driving, the wiping speed slows

down whenever the vehicle stops. For

example: the speed will change from

a fast wiping speed to normal wiping

speed.

As soon as the vehicle moves off,

wiping will return to the speed originally

selected.

Any action on stalk 1 overrides and

cancels automatic operation.

Starting the vehicle with the stalk in

position D triggers a slow continuous

sweeping movement. Adjusting the

stalk to position D is necessary to trig-

ger a rapid continuous sweeping move-

ment.

Vehicles with automatic wiper

function

With the engine running, move stalk 1

– A park.

– B automatic wiper function

When this position is selected, the

system detects water on the wind-

screen and triggers the wipers at a

suitable wiping speed:

– E: minimum sensitivity

– F: maximum sensitivity

NB: in foggy weather or during

snowfalls, the wiping is not automati-

cally triggered and remains under

the driver’s control.

– C normal wiping speed.

– D fast wiping speed.

ing until the end of the request, then

three return sweeps, then after a few

seconds, a fourth.

WINDSCREEN WASH/WIPE (2/2)

In freezing or snowy weather, ensure

they are not stuck to the windscreen

(including the central area located

behind the interior rear-view mirror)

and the rear screen before starting

the wipers (risk of motor overheat-

ing).

Check the condition of the wiper

blades. You are responsible for their

service life:

– they must remain clean: clean

the blades, windscreen and

rear screen regularly with soapy

water;

– do not use them when the wind-

screen or rear screen are dry;

– free them from the windscreen or

rear screen when they have not

been used for a long time.

In all cases, replace them as soon

as they begin to lose efficiency: ap-

proximately once a year.

When working in the engine

compartment, ensure that

the windscreen wiper stalk

is in position A (park).

Risk of injury.

to the rear windscreen wipers, a contin-

uous sweep until the stalk is released,

then two return wipes followed by a

third, after a few seconds.

Special note

If the windscreen wipers are operat-

ing or are in automatic mode, the rear

screen wiper wipes intermittently when

reverse gear is engaged.

Depending on the vehicle, you can

deactivate this function on the touch

screen. Please see the equipment in-

structions for further information.

Speed-dependent

timed rear screen

wiper

With the ignition on, turn the end of

the stalk 2 to align the mark 1 with the

symbol.

Wiping frequency varies with speed.

REAR SCREEN WASH/WIPE

In freezing or snowy weather, ensure

they are not stuck to the windscreen

(including the central area located

behind the interior rear-view mirror)

and the rear screen before starting

the wipers (risk of motor overheat-

ing).

Check the condition of the wiper

blades. You are responsible for their

service life:

– they must remain clean: clean

the blades, windscreen and

rear screen regularly with soapy

water;

– do not use them when the wind-

screen or rear screen are dry;

– free them from the windscreen or

rear screen when they have not

been used for a long time.

In all cases, replace them as soon

as they begin to lose efficiency: ap-

proximately once a year.

Before using the rear wiper, check

that no object obstructs the travel of

the blade.

Do not use the wiper arm to open or

close the tailgate.

Before any action on the windscreen (washing the vehicle, de-icing,

cleaning the windscreen, etc.), return the stalk 1 to the park position.

Risk of injury or damage.

1.67

FUEL TANK (1/2)

Fuel grade

Use a high-grade fuel that complies

with the legislation in force in each

country and which must comply with

the specifications given on the label

on the cover A. Please refer to the in-

formation on “Engine specifications” in

Section 6.

Useful capacity of fuel tank:

approximately 28 litres or 35 litres, de-

pending on the vehicle.

To open cover A, place your finger into

recess B.

When filling, use the cap holder 1 on

the cover A to secure the cap 2.

After filling, check that the cap and

cover are closed.

Fuel filler cap: this is spe-

cific.

If you have to replace it,

make sure it is identical to

the original cap. Contact an appro-

ved Dealer.

Never place the cap near a source

of heat or flame.

Do not wash the filler area with a

high-pressure washer.

Do not use ethanol-based

fuel if your vehicle is not

compatible with this fuel.

Do not add additive to the

fuel –otherwise you risk damaging

the engine.

Petrol version

It is essential to use unleaded petrol.

The octane rating (RON) must comply

with the information given on the label

on the cover A. Please refer to the in-

formation on «Engine specifications» in

Section 6.

1.68

FUEL TANK (2/2)

Filling with fuel

With the ignition off, insert the nozzle

and insert it fully before turning it on to

fill the fuel tank (risk of splashing).

Keep the nozzle in this position

throughout the entire filling operation.

When the pump cuts out automatically

at the end of the filling procedure, a

maximum of two further filling attempts

may be made, as there must be suffi-

cient space in the fuel tank to allow for

expansion.

Make sure that no water enters the fuel

tank during filling. The cover A and its

surround must remain clean.

Petrol versions

Using leaded petrol will damage the

antipollution system and may lead to a

loss of warranty.

To ensure that the fuel tank is not filled

with leaded petrol, the fuel tank filler

neck contains a restrictor fitted with a

foolproof system which only allows

the nozzle for unleaded petrol to be

used (at the pump).

Vehicle fitted with the Stop and

Start function

To fill up with fuel, the engine must

be stopped (and not on standby):

stop the engine (please refer to the

information on “Starting and stop-

ping the engine” in Section 2).

Persistent fuel odour

If you notice a persistent

fuel odour you should:

– stop the vehicle as soon as traf-

fic conditions allow and switch off

the ignition;

– switch on the hazard warning

lights and ask your passengers to

leave the vehicle and stay clear

of the traffic;

– contact an approved Dealer.

No modifications what-

soever are permitted on

any part of the fuel supply

system (electronic units,

wiring, fuel circuit, injectors, pro-

tective covers, etc.) as this may be

dangerous (unless undertaken by

qualified Network personnel).

pressed when starting the engine.

Driver’s responsibility

when parking or stopping

the vehicle

Never leave an animal,

child or adult who is not self-suffi-

cient alone in your vehicle, even for

a short time.

They may pose a risk to themselves

or to others by starting the engine,

activating equipment such as the

electric windows or locking the

doors, for example.

Also, in hot and/or sunny weather,

please remember that the tempera-

ture inside the passenger compart-

ment increases very quickly.

RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS

INJURY.

Never switch off the igni-

tion before the vehicle has

stopped completely. Once

the engine has stopped, the

brake servo, power-assisted steer-

ing, etc. and the passive safety de-

vices such as airbags and preten-

sioners will no longer operate.

instrument panel. This notifies you that

the engine is on standby.

The vehicle equipment remain opera-

tional while the engine is stopped.

The engine will restart as soon as you

press the clutch pedal and move into

gear.

STOP AND START function (1/3)

This system enables a reduced fuel

consumption and lower greenhouse

gas emissions.

The system is activated automatically

when the vehicle is started.

While driving, the system stops the

engine (standby) when the vehicle is

at a standstill (traffic jam, traffic lights,

etc).

System operating conditions

Engine standby is activated if:

– the vehicle has been driven since its

last stop;

– the gearbox is in neutral;

– the clutch pedal is released;

and

– the vehicle is travelling at less than 3

km/h.

Special feature of the automatic

engine re-start

Under certain conditions, the engine

can restart on its own in order to guar-

antee your safety and comfort.

This can occur especially when:

– the outdoor temperature is too low or

too high (less than around 0 °C or

higher than around 30 °C);

– the “Clear View” function is activated

(please see the information on “Air

conditioning” in Section 3);

– the battery is not sufficiently charged;

– the vehicle speed is above 7 km/h

(downhill slope, etc.);

– repeated pressing on the brake

pedal or braking system require-

ment;

– ...

Special note: when opening the pas-

senger side door, some of these condi-

tions prevent the engine from automati-

cally restarting.

Engine on standby - braking

assistance is no longer op-

erational.

Do not drive off when the

engine is on standby (warn-

ing light  is displayed

on the instrument panel).

If you get out of the vehicle, a beep

notifies you that the engine is on

standby and has not been switched

off.

Before getting out of the

vehicle, you must switch

off the ignition (please see

section on “Starting, stop-

ping the engine”).

2.7

SPECIAL FEATURES OF PETROL VERSIONS

The following operating conditions:

– driving for long periods when the low

fuel level warning light is lit;

– using leaded petrol;

– using fuel or lubrication additives

which are not approved.

Or operating faults such as:

– faulty ignition system, running out of

fuel or disconnected spark plugs re-

sulting in the engine misfiring or cut-

ting out when driving;

– loss of power,

as they may cause the catalytic con-

verter to overheat and thus reduce its

efficiency, or damage it irreparably

and cause heat damage to the vehi-

cle.

If you notice any of the above operating

faults, have the necessary repairs car-

ried out as soon as possible by an ap-

proved Dealer.

These faults may be avoided by regu-

larly taking your vehicle to an approved

Dealer at the intervals specified in the

Maintenance document.

Starting problems

To avoid damaging the catalytic con-

verter, do not keep trying to start the

engine (using the start button, or by

pushing or towing the vehicle) without

having identified and corrected the

starting fault.

If the fault cannot be identified, do not

keep trying to start the engine, but con-

tact an approved Dealer.

Do not park the vehicle or

run the engine in locations

where combustible sub-

stances or materials such as

grass or leaves can come into con-

tact with the hot exhaust system.

2.8

Gear lever

Selecting reverse gear

Vehicle with manual gearbox: Follow

the grid marked on knob 1 and, depend-

ing on the vehicle, lift the ring against

the knob to engage reverse gear.

Vehicles with automatic gear-

box: refer to the information on the

“Automatic gearbox” in Section 2.

The reversing lights will come on as

soon as reverse gear is selected with

the ignition on.

GEAR LEVER/HANDBRAKE

Handbrake

To release:

Pull the lever 3 up slightly, press

button 2 and then lower the lever to the

floor.

The red warning light

D on the in-

strument panel will come on if you are

driving with an incorrectly released

handbrake.

To apply:

Pull lever 3 upwards. Check that the

vehicle is immobilised. The warning

light

D on the instrument panel will

come on.

When stationary, and de-

pending on the slope and/or

vehicle load, it may be nec-

essary to pull up the hand-

brake at least two extra notches and

engage a gear (1

or reverse gear)

for vehicles with a manual gearbox

or position P for vehicles with an au-

tomatic gearbox.

An impact to the under-

side of the vehicle while

manoeuvring (e.g.: strik-

ing a post, raised kerb or

other street furniture) may result in

damage to the vehicle (e.g.: defor-

mation of an axle).

To avoid any risk of accident, have

your vehicle checked by an ap-

proved Dealer.

Make sure that the hand-

brake is properly released

when driving (red indicator

light off), otherwise over-

heating, or even damage, may

occur.

2.9

Fuel consumption is accredited in ac-

cordance with a standard regulatory

method. Identical for all manufactur-

ers, this enables vehicles to be com-

pared with one another. Consumption

in real time depends on vehicle usage

conditions, the equipment fitted and the

user’s driving style. To optimise fuel

consumption, please refer to the follow-

ing advice.

Depending on the vehicle, you will have

various functions which enable you to

lower your fuel consumption:

– gear change indicator;

– the journey record and eco-driving

advice via the multimedia display;

– ECO mode activated by button ECO.

If fitted on the vehicle, the navigation

system provides additional information.

Journey record

Once the engine is switched off, you

will see “Journey record” displayed on

the screen 2, enabling you to view in-

formation relating to your last journey.

This indicates:

– average fuel consumption;

– number of miles/kilometres travelled;

– number of miles/kilometres saved.

DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING (1/4)

Gear change indicator 1

To obtain optimum consumption levels,

a warning light on the instrument panel

lets you know the best time to move up

or down a gear:

Š move up a gear;

‰ move down a gear.

2.10

Mode ECO

ECO mode is a function which opti-

mises fuel consumption. It acts on all

elements which consume fuel (engine

power, heating and/or air conditioning,

etc).

Activating the function

Press the switch 3.

The warning light

 comes on on

the instrument panel to confirm activa-

tion.

While driving, it is possible to leave the

ECO mode temporarily in order to im-

prove engine performance.

To do this, press the accelerator pedal

firmly and fully.

ECO mode is reactivated when you

take pressure off the accelerator pedal.

Disabling the function

Press the switch 3.

The warning light

 goes out on

the instrument panel to confirm deac-

tivation.

DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING (2/4)

An overall rating from 0 to 100 is dis-

played to let you assess your eco driv-

ing performance. The higher the score,

the better your eco-driving perform-

ance.

Eco advice is given to help improve

your performance.

With your favourite journeys saved, you

can evaluate your performance.

For more information, please see the

multimedia system instructions.

2.11

Driving advice and ECO

driving

Behaviour

– Drive carefully for the first few miles

until the engine reaches its normal

operating temperature, rather than

let it warm up while the vehicle is sta-

tionary.

– Speed is expensive.

– Sporty driving uses a lot of fuel: drive

with a light right foot.

– Do not overrev the engine in the in-

termediate gears.

You should always use the highest

gear possible.

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 regularly. Do not lay one

mat on top of another.

There is a risk of wedging the

pedals

DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING (3/4)

– Avoid sudden acceleration.

– Brake as little as possible. If you an-

ticipate an obstacle or bend in ad-

vance, you may then simply release

the accelerator pedal.

– Do not try to maintain the same

speed up a hill, accelerate no more

than you would on the level. Keep

your foot in the same position on the

accelerator pedal.

– Double declutching and accelerating

before switching off are unnecessary

in modern vehicles.

– Bad weather, flooded roads:

Do not drive through

floods if the water is

above the lower edge of

the wheel rims.

2.12

DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING (4/4)

Advice on use

– Favour the ECO mode.

– Electricity is fuel; switch off all the

electrical components which are

not really needed. However (safety

first), keep your lights on when the

visibility is bad (“see and be seen”).

– Use the air vents. Driving with the

windows open at 60 mph (100 km/h)

will increase fuel consumption by

4%.

– Never fill the fuel tank right to the

brim to avoid overflow.

– In vehicles fitted with air condi-

tioning, it is normal to observe an

increase in fuel consumption (es-

pecially in urban conditions) when

it is used. For vehicles fitted with

manual air conditioning, switch off

the system when it is not required.

Advice for reducing consumption

and therefore helping to preserve

the environment:

If the vehicle has been parked in the

sun, open the doors for a few mo-

ments to let the hot air escape before

starting the engine.

– Do not leave an empty roof rack

fitted to the vehicle.

– Avoid using the car for door-to-door

calls (short journeys with long waits

in between) because the engine

never reaches its normal operating

temperature.

Tyres

– An underinflated tyre increases fuel

consumption.

– The use of non-recommended tyres

can increase fuel consumption.

2.13

MAINTENANCE AND ANTIPOLLUTION ADVICE

Your vehicle complies with criteria for

recycling and recovering vehicles at the

end of their service life which will come

into force in 2015.

Some parts of your vehicle have there-

fore been designed to facilitate future

recycling.

These parts are easy to remove so

that they can be recovered and reproc-

essed by recycling companies.

By virtue of its design, moderate fuel

consumption and initial settings, your

vehicle also conforms to current anti-

pollution regulations. The manufac-

turer is actively striving to reduce pol-

lutant exhaust gas emissions and to

save energy. But the fuel consumption

of your vehicle and the level of pollutant

exhaust gas emissions are also your

responsibility. Ensure that it is main-

tained and used correctly.

Maintenance

It is important to remember that fail-

ure to respect anti-pollution regulations

could lead to legal action being taken

against the vehicle owner.

In addition, replacing engine, fuel

supply system and exhaust compo-

nents with parts other than those origi-

nally recommended by the manufac-

turer may alter your vehicle so that it

no longer complies with anti-pollution

regulations.

Have your vehicle adjusted and

checked by an authorised dealer, in ac-

cordance with the instructions given in

your maintenance schedule: they will

have all the equipment necessary for

ensuring that your vehicle is maintained

to its original standard.

Engine adjustments

– Spark plugs: for optimum condi-

tions of use, output and performance

the specifications laid down by our

Design Department must be strictly

applied.

If the spark plugs have to be changed,

use the make, type and gap specified

for your vehicle’s engine. Contact an

authorised dealer for this.

– Air filter, fuel filter: a choked ele-

ment will reduce efficiency. It must

be replaced.

– Ignition and idle speed: no adjust-

ment is needed.

Exhaust gas monitoring

system

The exhaust gas monitoring system will

detect any operating faults in the vehi-

cle’s antipollution system.

If this system malfunctions, toxic sub-

stances may be released into the at-

mosphere or damage may occur.

This warning light on the in-

strument panel will indicate if

there are any faults in the system:

This lights up when the ignition is

switched on and goes out when the

engine is started.

– If it lights up continuously, consult an

approved Dealer as soon as possi-

ble;

– if it flashes, reduce the engine speed

until the light stops flashing. Contact

an authorised dealer as soon as pos-

sible.

2.14

ENVIRONMENT

Your vehicle has been designed with

respect for the environment in mind for

its entire service life: during production,

use and at the end of its life.

This commitment is illustrated by the of

the manufacturer eco² signature.

Manufacture

Your vehicle has been manufactured at

a factory which complies with a policy

to reduce the environmental impact

on the surrounding areas (reduction of

water and energy consumption, visual

and noise pollution, atmospheric emis-

sions and waste water; sorting and re-

using waste).

Emissions

In usage phase, your vehicle was de-

signed to emit fewer greenhouse gases

(CO2) and therefore consume less fuel.

Our vehicles are also equipped with a

particle filter system including a cata-

lytic converter, an oxygen sensor and

an active carbon filter (the latter pre-

vents vapour from the fuel tank being

released into the open air).

Please make your own

contribution towards

protecting the environment

too

– Worn parts replaced in the course of

routine vehicle maintenance (vehi-

cle battery, oil filter, air filter, batter-

ies, etc.) and oil containers (empty or

filled with used oil) must be disposed

of through specialist organisations.

– At the end of the vehicle’s service

life, it should be sent to approved

centres to ensure that it is recycled.

– In all cases, comply with local legis-

lation.

Recycling

Your vehicle is 85% recyclable and

95% recoverable.

To achieve these objectives, many of

the vehicle components have been de-

signed to enable them to be recycled.

The materials and structures have

been carefully designed to allow these

components to be easily removed and

reprocessed by specialist companies.

In order to preserve raw material re-

sources, this vehicle incorporates nu-

merous parts made from recycled plas-

tics or renewable materials (vegetable

or animal-derived materials such as

cotton or wool).

2.15

TYRE PRESSURE LOSS WARNING (1/3)

When fitted to the vehicle, this system

notifies the driver if one or more tyres

lose pressure.

Operating principle

Each wheel has a sensor in the inflation

valve which periodically measures the

tyre pressure while driving.

Warning light

 1 comes on to

alert the driver in the event of insuffi-

cient pressure (deflated wheel, punctu-

red tyre, etc.).

Resetting the standard level

for the tyre pressures

This should be done:

– when the standard tyre pressure

needs to be changed to adapt to

usage conditions (empty, carrying a

load, motorway driving, etc.);

– after changing a wheel.

It should always be done after checking

the tyre pressure of all four tyres when

cold.

Tyre pressures must correspond to the

current usage of the vehicle (empty,

carrying a load, motorway driving, etc.).

This function is an additio-

nal driving aid.

However, the function is

not intended to replace the

driver. It cannot, therefore, under

any circum-stances replace the vig-

ilance or the responsibility of the

driver.

Check the tyre pressures once a

month.

2.16

Note

The standard tyre pressure cannot be

less than that recommended and indi-

cated on the door frame.

Display

Check tyre pressure

The warning light

 comes on (not

flashing).

This indicates that at least one tyre is

flat.

Check and, if necessary, readjust the

pressures of the four wheels when cold.

The warning light

 goes off after a

few minutes’ driving.

Puncture

Warning light

 comes on steady,

accompanied by a beep and warning

light

They indicate that at least one wheel

is punctured or severely underinfla-

ted. Replace it or contact an approved

dealer if it is punctured. Top up the tyre

pressure if the wheel is deflated.

Check tyre sensors

The warning light

 flashes for

several seconds, then stays on, along

with the warning light

©.

They indicate that at least one wheel is

not fitted with sensors. In other cases,

contact an authorised dealer.

TYRE PRESSURE LOSS WARNING (2/3)

Warning light ® re-

quires you to stop immedi-

ately, for your own safety,

as soon as traffic conditions allow.

Resetting procedure

With the ignition on:

– repeatedly press button 3 or 4 to

select the warning light 5 on the dis-

play 2;

– press and hold (around 3 seconds)

button 3 or 4 to start initialisation.

When the «SET» warning light

flashes for around five seconds, this

indicates that the reset request for

the tyre pressure reference value

has been taken into account.

Reinitialisation is carried out after a few

minutes’ driving.

The sudden loss of pressure in a

tyre (burst tyre, etc.) cannot be de-

tected by the system.

2.17

TYRE PRESSURE LOSS WARNING (3/3)

Readjustment of tyre

pressures

The tyre pressures must be adjusted

when cold (please refer to the label lo-

cated on the edge of the driver’s door).

If the pressure cannot be checked

when the tyres are cold, increase the

recommended pressures by 0.2 to

0.3 bar (3 PSI).

Never deflate a hot tyre.

Replacing wheels/tyres

This system requires specific equip-

ment (wheels, tyres, hubcaps, etc.).

Please see the information on “Tyres”

in Section 5.

Contact an approved Dealer to fit new

tyres and to find out about available ac-

cessories compatible with the system

and available from your dealer network:

the use of any other accessory could

affect the correct operation of the

system or damage a sensor.

Tyre repair product and

inflation kit

Because the valves are specially desi-

gned, only use equipment approved by

the approved network. Please refer to

“Tyre inflation kit” in Section 5.

2.18

Depending on the vehicle, this is com-

posed of:

– anti-lock braking system (ABS);

– electronic stability control (ESC)

with understeer control, traction

control and assistance with side

winds;

– emergency brake assist;

– hill start assistance.

Operating faults:

–

instrument panel: ABS, ESC and

emergency brake assist are deacti-

vated. Braking is always enabled;

–

x, D, © and ®

come on on the instrument panel:

this indicates a fault in the brak-

ing system.

In both cases, consult an approved

Dealer.

Anti-lock braking system

(ABS)

Under heavy braking, the ABS prevents

the wheels from locking, allowing the

stopping distance to be managed and

keeping control of the vehicle.

Under these circumstances, the vehi-

cle can be steered to avoid an obstacle

whilst braking. In addition, this system

can increase stopping distances, parti-

cularly on roads with low surface grip

(wet ground etc.).

You will feel a pulsation through the

brake pedal each time the system is

activated. The ABS does not in any

way improve the vehicle's physical per-

formance relating to the road surface

and road-holding. It is still essential to

follow the rules of good driving practice

(such as driving at a safe distance from

the vehicle in front etc.).

DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES AND AIDS (1/4)

These functions are an ad-

ditional aid in the event of

critical driving conditions,

enabling the vehicle beha-

viour to be adapted to suit the dri-

ving conditions.

However, the functions do not take

the place of the driver. They do

not increase the vehicle’s limits

and should not encourage you

to drive more quickly. Therefore,

they can under no circumstances

replace the vigilance or responsibi-

lity of the driver when manoeuvring

the vehicle (the driver must always

be ready for sudden incidents which

may occur when driving).

In an emergency, apply firm and

continuous pressure to the brake

pedal. There is no need to pump

it repeatedly. The ABS will modu-

late the force applied in the braking

system.

Your braking systems

are partially operational.

However, it is dangerous

to brake suddenly and

it is essential to stop immediately,

as soon as traffic conditions allow.

Contact an approved dealer.

2.19

Electronic stability control

(ESC) with understeer

control, traction control and

assistance with side winds

Electronic stability control ESC

This system helps you to keep control

of the vehicle in critical driving condi-

tions (avoiding an obstacle, loss of grip

on a bend, etc.).

A sensor in the steering wheel detects

the direction selected by the driver.

Other sensors throughout the vehicle

measure the actual direction.

The system compares driver input to

the actual trajectory of the vehicle and

corrects the trajectory if necessary by

controlling the braking of certain wheels

and/or engine power. In the event that

the system is engaged, indicator light

 flashes on the instrument panel.

DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES AND AIDS (2/4)

Understeer control

This system optimises the action of the

ESC in the case of pronounced un-

dersteer (loss of front axle road hol-

ding).

Assistance with side winds

This system optimises the action of the

ESC and also helps to control the vehi-

cle in case of variation of side winds.

It helps maintain the vehicle trajectory

through the use of the brakes.

If the system is activated, the indicator

light

 may flash on the instrument

panel.

Traction control

This system helps to limit wheelspin of

the drive wheels and to control the vehi-

cle when pulling away accelerating or

decelerating.

Using the wheel sensors, the system

measures and compares the speed of

the drive wheels at all times and slows

down their over-rotation. If a wheel is

starting to slip, the system brakes au-

tomatically until the drive supplied be-

comes compatible with the level of grip

under the wheel again.

The system also adjusts the engine

speed to the grip available under the

wheels, independently of the pressure

exerted on the accelerator pedal.

Operating faults

When the system detects an operat-

ing fault the warning lights

 appear on the instrument panel.

In this case, the ESC and traction con-

trol system are deactivated.

Consult an approved dealer.

2.20

DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES AND AIDS (3/4)

Emergency brake assist

This system supplements the ABS

and helps reduce vehicle stopping dis-

tances.

The system allows an emergency brak-

ing situation to be detected when the

brake pedal is pressed. In this case, the

braking assistance immediately devel-

ops maximum power and may trigger

ABS regulation.

ABS braking is maintained as long as

the brake pedal is applied.

Hazard warning lights switching on

Depending on the vehicle, these may

light up in the event of sudden decele-

ration.

Braking anticipation

Depending on the vehicle, when you

rapidly release the accelerator, the

system anticipates the braking ma-

noeuvre in order to reduce stopping

distances.

When using the cruise control:

– if you use the accelerator, when you

release it, the system may be trigge-

red;

– if you do not use the accelerator, the

system will not be triggered.

Operating faults

When the system detects an operating

fault, the warning light

on on the instrument panel.

Consult an approved dealer.

These functions are an ad-

ditional aid in the event of

critical driving conditions,

enabling the vehicle beha-

viour to be adapted to suit the dri-

ving conditions.

However, the functions do not take

the place of the driver. They do

not increase the vehicle’s limits

and should not encourage you

to drive more quickly. Therefore,

they can under no circumstances

replace the vigilance or responsibi-

lity of the driver when manoeuvring

the vehicle (the driver must always

be ready for sudden incidents which

may occur when driving).

2.21

DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES AND AIDS (4/4)

Hill start assistance

This function assists the driver when

starting on hills. It prevents the vehicle

from rolling backwards, depending on

the slope, by automatically applying the

brakes when the driver lifts his/her foot

off the brake pedal to depress the acce-

lerator pedal.

It only operates when the gear lever is

in a position other than neutral (other

than N or P for automatic transmis-

sions) and the vehicle is completely

stationary (brake pedal depressed)

The system holds the vehicle for ap-

proximately 2 seconds. The brakes are

then gradually released (the vehicle will

move according to the slope).

The hill start assistance

system cannot completely

prevent the vehicle from rol-

ling backwards in all situa-

tions (extremely steep gradients,

etc.).

In all cases, the driver may depress

the brake pedal to prevent the

vehicle from rolling forwards or

backwards.

The hill start assistance function

should not be used for prolonged

stops: use the brake pedal.

This function is not designed to im-

mobilise the vehicle permanently.

If necessary, use the brake pedal to

stop the vehicle.

The driver must remain particularly

vigilant when driving on slippery or

low-grip surfaces and/or on hills.

Risk of serious injury.

2.22

LANE DEPARTURE WARNING (1/2)

This lane departure warning system no-

tifies the driver when they accidentally

cross a continuous or broken line.

This function uses a camera attached

to the windscreen, behind the rear-view

mirror.

This function is a driving aid in the event of the accidental crossing of

a continuous or broken line in the road. However, the function is not in-

tended to replace the driver. The function can be disrupted under certain

conditions, including:

– poor visibility (rain, snow, fog, dirty windscreen, glare of the sun, partially obs-

cured road lines, etc.);

– roads with tight bends;

– closely following a vehicle in the same lane;

– worn road markings, difficult to distinguish or spaced very widely apart;

– narrow roads;

– ...

In this case, warning light

 on the instrument panel goes out to indicate that

the function will not operate (lines not detected).

Under no circumstances should this function replace the driver’s care or res-

ponsibility whilst performing manoeuvres.

2.23

LANE DEPARTURE WARNING (2/2)

Deactivation

Press the switch 1. The warning light 2

in the switch 1 goes out.

Operating faults

In the event of a malfunction, the warn-

ing light on the button 1 remains off,

and warning lights © and 

come on on the instrument panel along-

side a beep. Please consult an autho-

rised dealer.

When a line is crossed and the indica-

tors have not been activated, the func-

tion alerts the driver through warning

light

 on the instrument panel,

and a beep.

Conditions for non-activation

of alerts

– Indicators activated or having been

activated less than approximately

four seconds prior to departing from

the lane;

– Very fast lane departure;

– Driving continuously on a line;

– On bends, the function allows for

slightly cutting the bend;

– dirt covering the windscreen camera;

– ...

Activation

Press the switch 1: the warning light 2

integrated on the switch 1 comes on.

The function sounds the alarm if:

– the warning light lighted integrated

on the switch 1 is on;

and

– the vehicle speed is greater than ap-

proximately 45 mph (70 km/h);

and

– lines are detected.

Warning light

 comes on on the

instrument panel to notify the driver.

2.24

Switching on

Press the side switch 1 . Indicator

light 6 comes on, lit orange, and the

message “LIMIT” appears on the instru-

ment panel, accompanied by dashes to

indicate that the speed limiter function

is activated and waiting to store a lim-

ited speed.

To store the current speed, press

switch 2 (+): the limited speed will re-

place the dashes.

The minimum stored speed is 20 mph

(30 km/h).

Controls

1 Main “On/Off” switch.

2 Limit speed activation, storage and

increase switch (+).

3 Decreasing the limit speed (-).

4 Activation and recall of memorised

limit speed (R).

5 Speed limiter function standby (with

limited speed memory) (O).

The speed limiter function helps you

stay within the driving speed limit that

you choose, known as the limit speed.

CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: speed limiter function (1/3)

2.25

Exceeding the limit speed

It is possible to exceed the limit speed

at any time. To do this: press the accel-

erator pedal firmly and fully (beyond

the resistance point).

While the speed is being exceeded, the

limit speed displayed on the instrument

panel flashes.

Then, release the accelerator: the

speed limiter function will return as

soon as you reach a speed lower than

the stored speed.

Limited speed cannot be maintained

If driving up or down a steep gradient,

the system is unable to maintain the

limited speed: the memorised speed

flashes on the instrument panel and

a beep sounds at regular intervals to

inform you.

Varying the limit speed

The limit speed may be changed by re-

peatedly pressing:

– switch 2 (+) to increase speed;

– switch 3 (-) to reduce speed.

Driving

When a limited speed has been stored

and this speed is not reached, driving is

similar to driving a vehicle without the

speed limiter function.

Once you have reached the stored

speed, no effort on the accelera-

tor pedal will allow you to exceed

the programmed speed except in an

emergency (refer to information on

“Exceeding the limit speed”).

CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: speed limiter function (2/3)

The speed limiter function is

in no way linked to the brak-

ing system.

2.26

CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: speed limiter function (3/3)

Recalling the limit speed

If a speed has been saved, it can be re-

called by pressing switch 4 ((R)).

Putting the function on

standby

The speed limiter function is suspended

when you press switch 5 (O). In this

case, the limit speed remains stored

and the message “MEM” accompanied

by this speed appears on the instru-

ment panel.

Switching off the function

The speed limiter function is deac-

tivated if you press switch 1: in this

case a speed is no longer stored. The

orange instrument panel warning light

 goes out, confirming that the func-

tion is stopped.

When the speed limiter is put on

standby, pressing switch 2 (+) re-

activates the function without taking

into account the stored speed: it is

the speed at which the vehicle is

moving that is taken into account.

2.27

The cruise control function helps you to

maintain your driving speed at a speed

that you choose, called the cruising

speed.

This cruising speed may be set at any

speed above 20 mph (30 km/h).

This function is an addi-

tional driving aid. However,

the function does not take

the place of the driver.

Therefore, it can under no circum-

stances replace the driver’s respon-

sibility to respect speed limits and to

be vigilant (the driver must always

be ready to brake).

Cruise control must not be used in

heavy traffic, on undulating or slip-

pery roads (black ice, aquaplan-

ing, gravel) and during bad weather

(fog, rain, side winds etc.).

There is a risk of accidents.

The cruise control function

is in no way linked to the

braking system.

Controls

1 Main “On/Off” switch.

2 Cruising speed activation, storage

and increase switch (+).

3 Decreasing cruising speed (-).

4 Activation with recall of saved cruis-

ing speed (R).

5 Switch the function to standby (with

cruising speed saved) (O).

CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: cruise control function (1/4)

2.28

Driving

Once a cruising speed is memorised

and the cruise control function is active,

you may lift your foot off the accelera-

tor pedal.

Important: you are never-

theless advised to keep

your feet close to the pedals

in order to react if neces-

sary.

Activating cruise control

At a steady speed (above 18 mph

(30 km/h approximately)) press switch 2

or (+): the function is activated and the

current speed is saved.

The cruising speed replaces the dashes

and the cruise control is confirmed by

the appearance of warning light 6 lit

green, as well as warning light 7.

Switching on

Press switch 1 side .

Indicator light 7 comes on, lit green,

and the message “CRUISE” appears

on the instrument panel, accompanied

by dashes to indicate that the cruise

control function is activated and waiting

to store a cruising speed.

CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: cruise control function (2/4)

2.29

CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: cruise control function (3/4)

Exceeding the cruising speed

The cruising speed may be exceeded

at any time by depressing the accelera-

tor pedal. While it is being exceeded,

the cruising speed flashes on the in-

strument panel.

Then, release the accelerator: after a

few seconds, the vehicle will automati-

cally return to its set cruising speed.

Cruising speed cannot be

maintained

When driving down a steep gradient,

the system is unable to maintain the

cruising speed: the stored speed will

flash on the instrument panel informa-

tion display to inform you of this situ-

ation.

Adjusting the cruising speed

The cruising speed may be changed by

pressing the following repeatedly:

– switch 2 (+) to increase the speed,

– switch 3 (-) to decrease the speed.

The cruise control function

is in no way linked to the

braking system.

2.30

Switching off the function

The cruise control function is deacti-

vated if you press switch 1: in this case

a speed is no longer stored. The two in-

strument panel warning lights

 and

 go out to confirm that the function is

deactivated.

Returning to the cruising speed

If a speed is stored, it can be recalled,

once you are sure that the road con-

ditions are suitable (traffic, road sur-

face, weather conditions, etc.). Press

switch 4 (R) if the vehicle speed is

above 20 mph (30 km/h).

When the stored speed is recalled, acti-

vation of the cruise control is confirmed

by the illumination of the

 warning

light.

NB: if the speed previously stored is

much higher than the current speed,

the vehicle will accelerate more rapidly

to reach this threshold.

When the cruise control function is

put on standby, pressing switch 2

(+) reactivates the cruise control

function without taking into account

the stored speed: it is the speed at

which the vehicle is moving that is

taken into account.

Putting the function on

standby

The function is set to standby if you:

– use the switch 5 (O);

– the brake pedal;

– depress the clutch pedal or the shift

into neutral if the vehicle has an au-

tomatic gearbox.

In all three cases, the cruising speed re-

mains stored and the message “MEM”

appears on the instrument panel.

Standby is confirmed when indicator

light

 goes out.

CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: cruise control function (4/4)

Putting the cruise control

on standby or switching it

off does not cause a rapid

reduction in speed: you

must brake by depressing the brake

pedal.

2.31

Operating principle

Ultrasonic detectors, installed in the

rear bumper (depending on the vehi-

cle), measure the distance between

the vehicle and an obstacle whilst re-

versing.

This measurement is indicated by

beeps which become more frequent the

closer you come to the obstacle, until

they become a continuous beep when

the vehicle is approximately 30 centi-

metres from the obstacle.

NB: make sure that the ultrasonic sen-

sors are not obscured (by dirt, mud,

snow, etc.).

PARKING DISTANCE CONTROL (1/2)

Operation

When reverse gear is selected, most

objects which are less than approxi-

mately 1.20 metres from the rear of the

vehicle are detected, a beep sounds

and, depending on the vehicle, the dis-

play 1 comes on.

This function is an additional aid that indicates the distance between the vehicle and an obstacle whilst reversing,

using sound signals.

Under no circumstances should it replace the driver’s care or responsibility whilst reversing.

The driver should always look out for sudden hazards during driving: always ensure that there are no moving obstacles (such

as a child, animal, pram or bicycle, etc.) or small, narrow objects such as stones or posts in your path when manoeuvring.

2.32

Deactivating the system

Press switch 2 to deactivate the system:

The indicator light built into the switch

lights up to remind you that the system

is deactivated.

Pressing the switch again will reacti-

vate the system and switch off the in-

dicator light.

Depending on the vehicle, you can

deactivate the parking distance control

from the touch-screen. Please see the

equipment instructions for further infor-

mation.

An impact to the under-

side of the vehicle while

manoeuvring (e.g.: stri-

king a post, raised kerb or

other street furniture) may result in

damage to the vehicle (e.g.: defor-

mation of an axle).

To avoid any risk of accident, have

your vehicle checked by an appro-

ved Dealer.

PARKING DISTANCE CONTROL (2/2)

2.33

REVERSING CAMERA (1/2)

Note:

– ensure that the reversing camera is

not obscured (dirt, mud, snow, etc.);

– depending on the vehicle, certain

settings can be adjusted from the

touch screen 2. Refer to the hand-

book for the equipment.

Operation

When going into reverse gear (and up

to around 5 seconds after shifting into

another gear), the camera 1 placed

next to the lights transmits a view of

the rear surroundings of the vehicle on

the touch screen 2, accompanied by a

mobile and fixed gauge.

This system is initially used with the aid

of several gauges (mobile for trajectory

and fixed for distance). When the red

zone is reached, use the bumper image

to stop accurately.

This function is an additio-

nal aid. It cannot, therefore,

under any circumstances

replace the vigilance or the

responsibility of the driver.

The driver should always pay at-

tention to sudden incidents during

driving: always ensure that there

are no moving obstacles (such as

a child, animal, pram, bicycle, etc.)

or small, narrow objects such as

stones or posts in your path when

manoeuvring.

2.34

REVERSING CAMERA (2/2)

This function is an additio-

nal aid. It cannot, therefore,

under any circumstances

replace the vigilance or the

responsibility of the driver.

The driver should always pay at-

tention to sudden incidents during

driving: always ensure that there

are no moving obstacles (such as

a child, animal, pram, bicycle, etc.)

or small, narrow objects such as

stones or posts in your path when

manoeuvring.

Dynamic gauge 3 (depending on the

vehicle)

This is shown in blue on screen 2. It in-

dicates the vehicle trajectory according

to the position of the steering wheel.

Static guide line 4:

The fixed clearance gauge comprises

coloured markers A, B and C, indicat-

ing the distance behind the vehicle:

– A (red) approximately 30 centi-

metres from the vehicle;

– B (yellow) approximately 70 centi-

metres from the vehicle;

– C (green) approximately 150 centi-

metres from the vehicle.

The screen shows a reverse image.

The frames are a representation projected onto flat ground; this information must

not be taken into account when superimposed on a vertical object or an object

on the ground.

Objects which appear on the edge of the screen may be deformed.

In very bright light (snow, vehicle in sunshine etc.), the camera vision may be

adversely affected. If the boot is open or poorly closed, the warning light

2 ap-

pears on the instrument panel and, depending on the vehicle, the camera display

disappears.

This gauge remains fixed and indicates

the vehicle trajectory if the wheels are

in line with the vehicle.

2.35

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (1/3)

Operation

With the gear lever 1 in position P or N,

start the engine.

To move forward, you must depress the

brake pedal before pressing the unlock-

ing button 2.

With your foot on the brake pedal

(warning light

c in display 4 goes

out), move the lever out of position P.

Only engage D or R when the vehi-

cle is stopped, with your foot on the

brake and the accelerator pedal re-

leased.

Selector lever 1

P: park

R: reverse

N: neutral

D: automatic mode

M: manual mode

3 : zone displaying gearbox mode or

gear engaged in manual mode

Driving in automatic mode

Select position D. In most traffic con-

ditions, you will not have to touch the

gear selector lever again: the gears will

change automatically at the right time

and at the most suitable engine speed

because the automatic system takes

into account the vehicle load and road

contour and adjusts itself to the particu-

lar driving style you have chosen.

Economical driving

When driving, always leave the lever

in position D, keeping the accelerator

pedal lightly depressed to ensure auto-

matic gear changes at a lower engine

speed.

Accelerating and overtaking

Depress the accelerator pedal firmly

and fully (so that it goes beyond the

kickdown point).

This will enable you to change down

to the optimum gear within the

engine range.

2.36

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (2/3)

Special circumstances

– If the road contours and bends

do not allow you to stay in auto-

matic mode (e.g.: in the mountains),

we recommend that you change to

manual mode.

This will prevent the automatic gear-

box from changing gears repeatedly

when climbing, and permit engine

braking on long descents.

– In cold weather, to prevent the

engine from stalling, wait a few mo-

ments before shifting the selector

lever from position P or N and en-

gaging D or R.

Driving in manual mode

With the selector lever in position D,

move the lever to the left. Shifting the

lever repeatedly allows you to change

gears manually:

– To move down through the gears,

push the lever backwards;

– To move up through the gears, push

the lever forwards.

The gear selected is displayed on the

instrument panel.

Special cases

Under certain driving conditions (e.g.

engine protection, electronic stability

program (ESP) operational etc.: ESC))

the automatic system may change the

gear automatically.

Likewise, to prevent incorrect manoeu-

vres, a gear change may be refused by

the automatic system: in this case the

gear display flashes for a few seconds

as a warning.

In very cold weather, the system

may prevent the gears from being

shifted in manual mode until the

gearbox reaches the right tempera-

ture.

Parking the vehicle

When the vehicle is stopped, move the

lever to position P while keeping your

foot on the brake pedal: the gearbox is

in neutral and the drive wheels are me-

chanically locked by the driveshaft.

Apply the handbrake.

An impact to the under-

side of the vehicle while

manoeuvring (e.g.: strik-

ing a post, raised kerb or

other street furniture) may result in

damage to the vehicle (e.g.: defor-

mation of an axle).

To avoid any risk of accident, have

your vehicle checked by an ap-

proved Dealer.

2.37

Breakdown of a vehicle with an

automatic gearbox

Please refer to the information on

“Towing” in Section 5.

When setting off, if the lever is locked

in position P, even though you are de-

pressing the brake pedal and pressing

the unlocking button 2, the lever can

still be released manually.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (3/3)

Operating faults

When three horizontal bars on the dis-

play 3 come on accompanied by the

warning light

dicates a gearbox fault. Contact an au-

thorised dealer as soon as possible.

To do this, unclip the base of the gear

lever 5 starting on the side below the

air conditioning controls. Then raise the

button 6 and simultaneously press the

unlock button 2 on the lever.

For safety reasons, do not

switch off the ignition before

the vehicle has come to a

complete standstill.

Warning light ® re-

quires you to stop immedi-

ately, for your own safety,

as soon as traffic conditions allow.

Switching air conditioning on

or off

The air conditioning is switched on

(warning light on) or off (warning light

off) using button 2.

The system cannot be switched on if

the control 3 is set to “0”.

The air conditioning system is used

for:

– lowering the temperature inside the

passenger compartment;

– eliminating condensation more

quickly.

The controls

(depending on vehicle)

1 Distribution of air in the passenger

compartment.

2 Air conditioning.

3 Adjusting the ventilation speed.

4 De-icing/demisting of the rear screen

and, depending on the vehicle, the

door mirrors.

5 Adjusting the air temperature.

6 Air recirculation.

MANUAL AIR CONDITIONING, HEATING SYSTEM (1/3)

Vehicles fitted with the ECO

mode (switch 7): when activated,

ECO mode can reduce the perform-

ance of the heating and/or air condi-

tioning. Please refer to the informa-

tion on “Driving advice, Eco-driving”

in Section 2.

3.5

Air recirculation is for:

– isolating the vehicle from the exter-

nal atmosphere (driving in polluted

areas, etc.).

– to bring the passenger compartment

to the desired temperature as quickly

as possible.

Switching the air

recirculation on

Push the control 6 to the left. In these

conditions, air is taken from the pas-

senger compartment and is recycled,

with no air being taken from outside the

vehicle.

MANUAL AIR CONDITIONING, HEATING SYSTEM (2/3)

Prolonged use of air recirculation can lead to condensation forming on the side

windows and windscreen, and discomfort due to the use of non-renewed air in

the passenger compartment.

We therefore advise you to return to normal mode (external air) as soon as the air

recirculation function is no longer required, by pressing the button 6 again.

2 4

Distribution of air in the

passenger compartment

Turn the control 1 to choose the distri-

bution option.

The air flow is directed to the

windscreen and the front side

window demisting vents.

The air flow is distributed be-

tween all the air vents, the

front side window demisting vents, the

windscreen demisting vents and the

footwells.

The air flow is directed mainly

towards the footwells.

The air flow is directed towards

the dashboard air vents and

the front footwells.

All the air flow is directed to the

dashboard vents.

3.6

If you want to shut off the flow of air, set

the control 3 to “0”.

The system is deactivated: the ventila-

tion speed is zero (vehicle stationary).

You can, however, still feel a slight flow

of air when the vehicle is moving.

Adjusting the amount of air

blown into the passenger

compartment

Move control 3. The further the control

is positioned to the right, the greater the

amount of air blown into the passenger

compartment.

AUTOMATIC CLIMATE CONTROL (4/4)

Air recirculation (isolation of

the passenger compartment)

This function is managed automatically

(operation is confirmed by a warning

light on button 7), but you can also acti-

vate it manually.

NB:

– during recirculation, air is taken from

the passenger compartment and

is recycled, with no air being taken

from outside the vehicle;

– air recirculation allows the external

atmosphere to be cut off (when driv-

ing in polluted areas, etc.);

– the recirculation of air makes it pos-

sible to reach the desired passenger

compartment temperature quicker.

The demisting/de-icing will still take

priority over the air recirculation.

Manual use

Press button 7 – the integrated indica-

tor light comes on.

Prolonged use of this position may lead

to odours, caused by non-renewal of

air, and the formation of condensation

on the windows.

We therefore advise you to return to au-

tomatic mode as soon as air recircula-

tion is no longer needed, by pressing

button 7.

To exit this function, press button 7

again.

Stopping the system

Turn the control 6 to “OFF” to stop the

system. To start it, turn the control 6

3.11

Operating faults

As a general rule, contact your ap-

proved dealer in the event of an oper-

ating fault.

– Reduction in de-icing, demisting

or air conditioning performance.

This may be caused by the passen-

ger compartment filter cartridge be-

coming clogged.

– No cold air is being produced.

Check that the controls are set cor-

rectly and that the fuses are sound.

Otherwise, switch off the system.

Presence of water under the

vehicle

After prolonged use of the air condi-

tioning system, it is normal for water

to be present under the vehicle. This is

caused by condensation.

AIR CONDITIONING: information and advice on use

Do not open the refriger-

ant fluid circuit. The fluid

may damage eyes or skin.

Fuel consumption

You will normally notice an increase in

fuel consumption (especially in town)

when the air conditioning is operating.

For vehicles fitted with air conditioning

with no automatic mode, switch off the

system when it is not required.

Advice for reducing consumption

and helping to preserve the environ-

ment

Drive with the air vents open and the

windows closed.

If the vehicle has been parked in the

sun, open the doors for a few moments

to let the hot air escape before starting

the engine.

Advice on use

In some situations, (air conditioning

off, air recirculation activated, ventila-

tion speed at zero or low, etc.) you may

notice that condensation starts to form

on the windows and windscreen.

If there is condensation, use the “Clear

View” function to remove it, then use

the air conditioning in automatic mode

to stop it forming again.

Maintenance

Refer to the Maintenance Document

for your vehicle for the inspection fre-

quency.

Do not add anything to the

vehicle’s ventilation circuit

(for example, to remove

bad odours).

There is a risk of damage or of

fire.

a half-open window: there is a risk

that the electric window could be

damaged.

These systems operate with the igni-

tion on or off, until one of the front doors

is opened (limited to about 3 minutes).

Driver’s responsibility

Never leave your vehi-

cle with the key or remote

control inside and never

leave a child (or a pet) unsupervi-

sed, even for a short while.

These may damage the engine or

cause a fire.

Make sure the engine

access flap is properly fitted

before and during its clo-

sure.

Make sure the engine access flap is

properly locked in place.

Risk of intoxication from fumes from

the engine compartment.

Deactivate the Stop and

Start function for any opera-

tion performed in the engine

compartment.

The engine may be hot

during operations in close

proximity. Risk of injury.

As the engine is located under the

boot, do not slide or store anything

under the boot carpet.

4.3

Reading the oil level

The oil level should be read with the ve-

hicle on level ground, after the engine

has been switched off for some time.

The dipstick must be used to read

the exact oil level and ensure that

the maximum level is not exceeded

(risk of engine damage). Refer to the

following pages.

It is normal for an engine to use oil for

lubrication and cooling of moving parts

and it is normal to top up the level be-

tween oil changes.

However, contact your approved

Dealer if more than 0.5 litres is being

consumed every 600 miles (1,000 km)

after the running in period.

Oil change frequency: check the oil

level from time to time and certainly

before any long journey to avoid the

risk of damaging your engine.

ENGINE OIL LEVEL: general information

In order to prevent splashback, it is

recommended that a funnel be used

when topping up/filling with oil.

– Remove the dipstick and wipe with a

clean, lint-free cloth;

– push the dipstick in as far as it will

go (for vehicles equipped with a cap-

type dipstick C, screw the cap in as

far as it will go);

– take out the dipstick again;

– read the level: it should never go

below the “min” A or above the

“max” B.

Once the operation has been com-

pleted, ensure that the dipstick is

pushed in as far as it will go or that

the “cap-type dipstick” is completely

screwed in.

Deactivate the Stop and

Start function for any opera-

tion performed in the engine

compartment.

Consult your approved Dealer at

once if you notice an abnormal or

repeated drop in any of the fluid

levels.

Exceeding the maximum

engine oil level

Under no circumstances

must the maximum fill

level B be exceeded: risk of damage

to the engine and catalytic conver-

ter.

If the oil level exceeds the maximum

level, do not start your vehicle and

contact an approved Dealer.

4.4

Topping up/filling

The vehicle must be parked on level

ground and the engine should be cold

(for instance, before the engine is star-

ted up for the first time in the day).

– Unscrew the cap 2;

– top up the level (as a guide, the ca-

pacity between the “min” and “max”

on the dipstick 1 is between 0.9 and

1.1 litres, depending on the engine);

– wait for approximately 10 minutes to

allow the oil to flow into the engine;

– check the level using the dipstick 1

(as described above).

Once the operation has been comple-

ted, ensure that the dipstick is pushed

in as far as it will go and that the cap is

completely screwed in.

ENGINE OIL LEVEL: topping up/filling (1/2)

Do not exceed the “max” level and

do not forget to refit the cap 2 and

dipstick 1.

In order to prevent splashback, it is

recommended that a funnel be used

when topping up/filling with oil.

Exceeding the maximum

engine oil level

Under no circumstances

must the maximum fill level

be exceeded: risk of damage to the

engine and catalytic converter.

If the oil level exceeds the maximum

level, do not start your vehicle and

contact an approved Dealer.

4.5

ENGINE OIL LEVEL: topping up, filling (2/2)OIL CHANGE

Never run the engine in an

enclosed space as exhaust

gases are poisonous.

Engine oil change: if you

are changing the oil when

the engine is hot, be careful

not to scald yourself if the

oil overflows.

Filling: take care when

topping up the oil that

no oil drips onto engine

components - risk of fire.

Remember to refit the cap securely

as there is a risk of fire if oil splashes

onto hot engine components.

The engine may be hot

when carrying out opera-

tions in close proximity. In

addition, the engine cooling

fan can come on at any moment.

Refer to the information on “Tyres” in

Section 5 for the servicing conditions

and, depending on the version, the use

of chains.

For your safety, please re-

spect the speed limit.

When they need to be re-

placed, only tyres of the

same make, size, type and profile

should be used on a single axle.

They must: either have a load ca-

pacity and speed rating at least

equal to those of the original

tyres, or conform to those recom-

mended by an authorised dealer.

Failure to heed these instructions

could endanger your safety and

affect your vehicle’s roadworthi-

ness.

Risk of loss of control of the ve-

hicle.

4.14

BODYWORK MAINTENANCE (1/2)

You should

Wash your car frequently, with the

engine off, with cleaning products rec-

ommended by the manufacturer (never

use abrasive products). Rinse thor-

oughly beforehand with a jet:

– spots of tree resin and industrial

grime;

– mud in the wheel arches and under-

neath the body which forms damp

patches;

– bird droppings, which cause a

chemical reaction with the paint that

rapidly discolours paintwork and

may even cause the paint to peel

off;

wash the vehicle immediately to

remove these marks since it is im-

possible to remove them by polish-

ing;

– salt, particularly in the wheel arches

and underneath the body after driv-

ing in areas where the roads have

been gritted.

Remove any plant matter (resin, leaves,

etc.) from the vehicle regularly.

What you should not do

Do not degrease or clean mechani-

cal components (e.g. the engine com-

partment), underneath the body, parts

with hinges (e.g. inside the doors) and

painted plastic external fittings (e.g.

bumpers) using high-pressure clean-

ing equipment or by spraying on prod-

ucts not approved by our Technical

Department. Doing this could give rise

to corrosion or operational faults.

Wash the vehicle in bright sunlight or

freezing temperatures.

Do not scrape off mud or dirt without

pre-wetting.

Allow dirt to accumulate on the exterior.

Allow rust to form following minor im-

pacts.

Do not use solvents not approved by

our Technical Department to remove

stains as this could damage the paint-

work.

Do not drive in snow or muddy condi-

tions without washing the vehicle, par-

ticularly under the wheel arches and

body.

A well-maintained vehicle will last

longer. It is therefore recommended to

maintain the exterior of the vehicle reg-

ularly.

Your vehicle has been treated with very

effective anti-corrosion products. It is

nevertheless subject to various outside

influences.

Corrosive agents in the atmosphere

– atmospheric pollution (built-up and

industrial areas),

– saline atmospheres (near the sea,

particularly in hot weather),

– seasonal and damp weather condi-

tions (e.g. road salt in winter, water

from road cleaners, etc.).

Minor impacts

Abrasive action

Dust and sand in the air, mud, road grit

thrown up by other vehicles, etc.

You should take a number of minor pre-

cautions in order to safeguard your ve-

hicle against such risks.

4.15

Respect local regulations about wash-

ing vehicles (e.g. do not wash your ve-

hicle on a public highway).

Observe the vehicle stopping distances

when driving on gravelled surfaces to

prevent paint damage.

Repair, or have repaired quickly, areas

where the paint has been damaged, to

prevent corrosion spreading.

Remember to visit the body shop pe-

riodically in order to maintain your

anti-corrosion warranty. Refer to the

Maintenance Document.

If it is necessary to clean mechani-

cal components, hinges, etc., spray

them with products approved by our

Technical Department to protect them

after they have been cleaned.

BODYWORK MAINTENANCE (2/2)

We have selected special products

to care for your vehicle and you can

obtain these from the manufactur-

er’s accessory outlets.

Using a roller type car wash

Return the windscreen wiper stalk to

the Park position (refer to the informa-

tion on the “Windscreen washer, wiper”

in Section 1). Check the mounting of

external accessories, additional lights

and mirrors, and ensure that the wiper

blades are secured with adhesive tape.

Remove the radio aerial mast if your

vehicle is fitted with this equipment.

Remember to remove the tape and refit

the antenna after washing.

Cleaning the headlights

As the headlights are made of plastic

“glass”, use a soft cloth or cotton wool

to clean them. If this does not clean

them properly, moisten the cloth with

soapy water, then wipe clean with a soft

damp cloth or cotton wool.

Finally, carefully dry off with a soft dry

cloth.

Cleaning products containing alco-

hol must not be used.

Vehicles with a matte paint

finish

This type of paint requires certain pre-

cautions.

Do not do the following

– use wax-based products (polishing);

– rub hard;

– wash the vehicle in a roller-type car

wash;

– wash the vehicle using a high-pres-

sure device;

– attach stickers to the paintwork (risk

of leaving marks).

You should do the following

Wash the vehicle by hand using plenty

of water, using a soft cloth or a gentle

sponge.

4.16

Glass instrument panel

(e.g.: instrument panel, clock, exterior

temperature display, radio display, mul-

timedia or multifunction display etc.)

Use a soft cloth (or cotton wool).

If this does not clean them properly,

use a soft cloth (or cotton wool) slightly

moistened with soapy water and then

wipe clean with another soft damp cloth

or cotton wool.

Finally, carefully dry off with a soft dry

cloth.

Do not use products containing alco-

hol and/or spray fluids on the area.

Seat belts

These must be kept clean.

Use products selected by our Technical

Department (Approved outlets) or

warm, soapy water and a sponge and

wipe with a dry cloth.

Detergents or dyes must not be used

under any circumstances.

INTERIOR TRIM MAINTENANCE (1/2)

Textiles (seats, door trim, etc)

Vacuum-clean the textiles regularly.

Liquid stain

Use soapy water.

Dab lightly (never rub) with a soft cloth,

rinse and remove the excess.

Solid or pasty stain

Carefully remove the excess solid or

pasty material immediately with a spa-

tula (working from the edges to the

centre to avoid spreading the stain).

Clean as for a liquid stain.

Special instructions for sweets or

chewing gum

Put an ice cube on the stain to solidify

it, then proceed as for a solid stain.

A well-maintained vehicle will last

longer. It is therefore recommended to

maintain the interior of the vehicle re-

gularly.

A stain should always be dealt with

swiftly.

Whatever type of stain is on the trim,

use cold (or warm) soapy water with

natural soap.

Detergents (washing-up liquid, pow-

dered products, alcohol-based pro-

ducts) should not be used.

Use a soft cloth.

Rinse and soak up the excess.

For further recommendations for

maintaining the interior, and/or for

any unsatisfactory results, please

see an authorised dealer.

4.17

You are strongly recom-

mended not to use high-

pressure or spray cleaning

equipment inside the pas-

senger compartment: use of such

equipment could impair the correct

functioning of the electrical or elec-

tronic components in the vehicle, or

have other detrimental effects.

INTERIOR TRIM MAINTENANCE (2/2)

You should not:

You are strongly advised not to po-

sition objects such as deodorants,

scents, etc. near air vents, as this could

damage your dashboard trim.

Removal/replacing removable

equipment originally fitted in

the vehicle

If you need to remove equipment in

order to clean the passenger com-

partment (for example, mats), always

ensure that they are correctly refitted

and are the right way around (the dri-

ver’s mat should be fitted on the driver’s

side, etc.) and fit them with the compo-

nents supplied with the equipment (for

example, the driver mat should always

be fixed using the pre-fitted mounting

components).

With the vehicle stationary, ensure that

nothing will impede driving (anything

obstructing the pedals, heel wedged by

the mat, etc.).

5.2

TYRE INFLATION KIT (1/4)

The kit is only approved for

inflating the tyres of the ve-

hicle originally equipped

with the kit.

It must never be used to inflate

the tyres of another vehicle, or any

other inflatable object (rubber ring,

rubber boat, etc.).

Avoid spillage on skin when hand-

ling the repair liquid bottle. If drop-

lets do leak out, rinse them off with

plenty of water.

Keep the repair kit away from chil-

dren.

Do not dispose of the empty bottle

in the countryside. Return it to your

approved dealer or to a recycling or-

ganisation.

The bottle has a limited service

life which is indicated on its label.

Check the expiry date.

Contact an approved dealer to re-

place the inflation tube and repair

product bottle.

The kit repairs tyres when

tread A has been dam-

aged by objects smaller

than 4 mm. It cannot repair

all types of puncture, such as cuts

larger than 4 mm, or cuts in tyre

sidewall B.

Ensure also that the wheel rim is in

good condition.

Do not pull out the foreign body

causing the puncture if it is still in

the tyre.

Do not attempt to use the

inflation kit if the tyre has

been damaged as a result

of driving with a puncture.

You should therefore carefully check

the condition of the tyre sidewalls

before any operation.

Driving with underinflated, flat or

punctured tyres can be dangerous

and may make the tyre impossible

to repair.

This repair is temporary

A tyre which has been punctured

should always be inspected (and re-

paired, where possible) as soon as

possible by a specialist.

When taking a tyre which has been

repaired using this kit to be replaced,

you must inform the specialist.

When driving, vibration may be felt

due to the presence of the repair

product injected into the tyre.

5.3

TYRE INFLATION KIT (2/4)

In the event of a puncture, use the kit

situated under the passenger footwell 1

by unscrewing the two screws 2.

With the engine running and the

parking brake applied,

– Connect the compressor hose 4 to

the container inlet 9;

– remove the cap from the container

inflation adapter 3;

– unscrew the valve cap on the rel-

evant wheel and screw on the con-

tainer’s inflation adapter 3;

– the plug 7 must be connected to the

vehicle accessories socket;

5 63

Before using this kit, park

the vehicle at a sufficient

distance from traffic, switch

on the hazard warning

lights, apply the handbrake, ask all

passengers to leave the vehicle and

keep them away from traffic.

If the vehicle is parked on

the hard shoulder, you must

warn other road users of

your vehicle’s presence

with a warning triangle or with other

devices as per the legislation apply-

ing to the country you are in.

– press switch 5 to inflate the tyre to

the recommended pressure (please

refer to the information on “Tyre infla-

tion pressure” in Section 4);

– after a maximum of 15 minutes, stop

inflating and read the pressure (on

pressure gauge 6).

Note: While the container emp-

ties (approx. 30 secs), the pressure

gauge 6 briefly shows pressure up to

6 bar, then the pressure drops.

– adjust the pressure: to increase

it, continue inflation with the kit; to

reduce it, press button 8.

5.4

TYRE INFLATION KIT (3/4)

If a minimum pressure of 1.8 bar is

not reached after 15 minutes, repair

is not possible; do not drive the ve-

hicle but contact an approved dealer.

Once the tyre is correctly inflated,

remove the kit: slowly unscrew the con-

tainer inflation adapter 3 to avoid any

product release and store the container

in plastic packaging to prevent release

of the product.

– Affix the driving recommendation

label (located under the container) to

the dashboard where the driver can

see it.

– Put the kit away.

– At the end of this initial inflation op-

eration, air will still escape from the

tyre. You must drive a short distance

in order to seal the hole.

– Start immediately and drive at be-

tween 12 and 40 mph (20 and

60 km/h) in order to distribute the

product evenly in the tyre and, after

driving for 2 miles (3 km), stop and

check the pressure.

Nothing should be placed

around the driver’s feet

as such objects may slide

under the pedals during

sudden braking manoeuvres and

obstruct their use.

– If the pressure is greater than 1.3 bar

but less than the recommended

pressure (refer to the label affixed to

the edge of the driver’s door), read-

just it. Otherwise, please contact an

authorised dealer: the tyre cannot be

repaired.

5.5

Precautions when using the

kit

The kit should not be operated for more

than 15 consecutive minutes.

The container must be replaced after

the first use even if liquid remains

inside.

TYRE INFLATION KIT (4/4)

Following repair with the kit,

do not travel further than

120 miles (200 km). In addi-

tion, reduce your speed and

under no circumstances exceed

48 mph (80 km/h). The sticker,

which you must affix in a prominent

position on the dashboard, reminds

you of this.

Depending on the country or local

legislation, a tyre repaired with the

inflation kit may need to be replaced.

Please be aware that a

poorly tightened or miss-

ing valve cap can make the

tyres less airtight and lead

to pressure loss.

Always use valve caps identical to

those fitted originally and tighten

them fully.

5.6

Tyre and wheel safety

The tyres are the only contact between

the vehicle and the road, so it is essen-

tial to keep them in good condition. You

must make sure that your tyres conform

to local road traffic regulations.

When the tyre tread has been worn

to the level of the warning strips, they

become visible 2: it is then neces-

sary to replace your tyres because the

tread rubber is now only 1.6 mm deep

at most, resulting in poor road hold-

ing on wet roads.

An overloaded vehicle, long journeys

by motorway, particularly in very hot

weather, or continual driving on poorly

surfaced minor roads will lead to more

rapid tyre wear and affect safety.

TYRES (1/3)

For your safety, please re-

spect the speed limit.

When they need to be re-

placed, only tyres of the

same make, size, type and profile

should be used on a single axle.

They must: either have a load ca-

pacity and a speed capacity at

least equal to the original tyres,

or correspond to those recom-

mended by your authorised

dealer.

Failure to heed these instructions

could endanger your safety and

affect your vehicle’s roadworthi-

ness.

Risk of loss of control of the ve-

hicle.

Incidents which occur when

driving, such as striking the

kerb, may damage the tyres

and wheel rims, and could

also lead to misalignment of the

front or rear axle geometry. In this

case, have the condition of these

checked by an approved dealer.

Maintaining the tyres

The tyres must be in good condition

and the tread form must have sufficient

depth; tyres approved by our Technical

Department have wear warning strips

1 which are indicators moulded into

the tread at several points.

5.7

Tyre pressures

Adhere to the tyre pressures. The tyre

pressures should be checked at least

once a month and additionally before

any long journey (refer to the label af-

fixed to the edge of the driver’s door).

The pressures should be checked cold:

ignore higher pressures which may be

reached in hot weather or following a

high speed journey.

Vehicle fitted with a tyre pressure

loss warning system

If under-inflated (puncture, low pres-

sure, etc.), the warning light



on the instrument panel comes on.

See “Tyre pressure loss warning” in

Section 2.

Fitting new tyres

For safety reasons, this op-

eration must be carried out

by a specialist. Fitting differ-

ent tyres may change your

vehicle as follows:

– it may mean that your vehicle no

longer conforms to current regu-

lations;

– it may change the way it handles

when cornering;

– it may cause the steering to be

heavy;

– it may affect the use of snow

chains.

If the pressures cannot be checked

when the tyres are cold, increase the

pressures from 0.2 to 0.3 bar (or 3 PSI).

Never deflate a hot tyre.

Changing wheels around

TYRES (2/3)

Please be aware that a

poorly tightened or missing

valve cap can make the

tyres less airtight and lead

to pressure loss.

Always use valve caps identical to

those fitted originally and tighten

them fully.

Incorrect tyre pressures

lead to abnormal tyre wear

and unusually hot running.

These are factors which

may seriously affect safety and lead

to:

– poor road holding,

– risk of bursting or tread separa-

tion.

The pressure depends on the load

and the speed of use. Adjust the

pressure according to the condi-

tions of use (refer to the label affixed

to the edge of the driver’s door).

The front and rear wheels

have different dimensions.

For safety reasons, it is not

permitted to switch the front

wheels (tyres and/or rims) with the

rear wheels.

5.8

TYRES (3/3)

Studded tyres

This type of equipment may only be

used for a limited period and as laid

down by local legislation. It is neces-

sary to observe the speed specified by

current legislation.

These tyres must, at a minimum, be

fitted to the two front wheels.

Chains may only be fitted

to tyres of the same size

as those originally fitted to

your vehicle.

In all cases, we would recommend

that you contact an approved dealer

who will be able to advise you on

the choice of equipment which is

most suitable for your vehicle.

Snow or winter tyres

We would recommend that these be

fitted to all four wheels to ensure that

your vehicle retains maximum adhe-

sion.

Warning: These tyres sometimes have

a specific direction of rotation and a

maximum speed index which may be

lower than the maximum speed of your

vehicle.

16” wheels cannot be

fitted with chains.

If you wish to fit snow

chains, you must use spe-

cial equipment.

Consult an approved Dealer.

Use in winter

Chains

For safety reasons, only fit chains

on the rear axle.

Chains cannot be fitted to tyres which

are larger than those originally fitted to

the vehicle.

(courtesy lights, etc.) are switched

off before disconnecting or recon-

necting the battery.

– When charging, stop the charger

before connecting or disconnecting

the battery.

– Do not place metal objects on the

battery to avoid creating a short cir-

cuit between the terminals.

– Always wait at least one minute after

the engine has been switched off

before disconnecting a battery.

– Make sure that you reconnect the

battery terminals after refitting.

Connecting a battery charger

The battery charger must be com-

patible with a battery with nominal

voltage of 12 volts.

cause an immediate explosion, and

charge the battery in a well-venti-

lated area. Risk of serious injury.

Handle the battery with care

as it contains sulphuric acid,

which must not come into

contact with eyes or skin. If

it does, wash the affected area with

plenty of cold water.

Ensure that naked flames, red hot

objects and sparks do not come into

contact with the battery as there is a

risk of explosion.
