Ensure the rotary switch under the steering wheel
is correctly positioned.
If there is any doubt that this switch is correctly
centred follow the method for centring described
in section 88 "driver’s airbag".
Renew the steering wheel bolt each time it is re-
moved (pre-bonded bolt) for a steering wheel
with airbag.
Observe the correct tightening torque (4.5
daN.m).
IMPORTANT
Before reconnecting the driver’s airbag cushion,
check to see if the system is operating correctly as
follows:
•check the airbag warning light on the
instrument panel is illuminated when the
ignition is on,
•connect a dummy ignition module to the
driver’s airbag connector and check that the
warning light extinguishes,
•switch the ignition off, connect the airbag
cushion in place of the dummy ignition module
and secure the cushion to the steering wheel,
•switch the ignition on. Check the warning light
illuminates for three seconds when the ignition
is switched on then extinguishes and remains
extinguished.
If the warning light does not operate exactly as
described above, refer to the fault finding section
and test the system using the XRBAG (Elé. 1288)

1 Trip mileometer reset button and clock reset (rotate).
NOTE :
• Under normal operating conditions, the oil level is only measured if the ignition has been switched off for
over one minute; otherwise the old oil level value is re-displayed.
If a fault is detected, however, an oil level measurement is made each time the ignition is switched on to
check if the fault is persisting.
• It is normal to find that the oil level is not always the same:
- parking on a slope,
- too short a wait after running the engine for a short moment (especially when the oil is cold), ...
