In manual mode, it is not neces-sary to release the accelerator during changes of gear.
A command to change gear is accepted only if the engine speed permits this.As the engine reaches maxi-mum revs and conditions per-mit, the system will automati-cally engage a higher gear.
Re-initialisation
The Electronic Gearbox System requires a re-initialisation after one of the following events:Change of battery or discon-nection of battery.Starting the engine with an assisting battery.

ABS system
The ABS system enhances your safety by preventing the wheels from locking in the event of sudden braking or in conditions of poor road adherence. It enables you to retain control of the steering.
The functioning capability of all the electrical components essential to the ABS is monitored electronically before and during your journey. The ABS warning lamp lights up when you switch on the ignition: it should go out after a few seconds.
If the monitoring warning lamp does not go out, that means that the ABS has disconnected because there is a fault. Also, the fact that the monitoring warning lamp comes on durin g the journey shows that the ABS system is inactive.

On roads with poor adherence (chippings, snow, ice etc.), it is always imperative to drive with prudence.
System of emergency braking assistance
(For vehicles with the ABS system)
The emergency braking assistance system helps you to attain the requ ired braking pressure more rapidly, thus to reduce the stopping distance. It operates as a function of the speed of action on the brake pedal, decreasing the resistance to this action. To prolong this action of the emerg ency braking assistance system, simply keep your foot on the brake pedal.
Emergency braking or sudden deceleration automatically operates th e hazard warning lamps. They will cease to operate automatically, or manually if you press the hazard lamps button on the dashboard.

Disengagement of the maximum speed
Press button 3 located on the end of control A.
This action causes the information “OFF” to appear in the instrument panel screen.
The memorised speed remains displayed and is not cancelled.
Temporary override of the maximum speed
At any time, it is possible to go above the memorised maximum speed by pressing the accelerator pedal hard down past the tight spot.

You have only to release the accelerator pedal to return below the maximum speed, to restore the function.
Remark: If during speed limitation the system cannot keep to the maxi mum speed (especially on a steep descent or i f y o u a c c e l e r a t e t o o h a r d ) , t h e s p e e d fl a s h e s . A d a p t y o u r s p e e d a s n e c e s s a r y .
The function will re-engage when your speed has returned below the desired maximum.

If you are towing another vehicle, the latter must be free-wheeling (gearbox in neutral).
ADVICE
Towing at low speed over a very short distance is authorised in exceptional cases depending on the regulations in force.
Otherwise, it is necessary to have your vehicle transported on a recovery truck.
TOWING REQUIREMENTS
Place the selector on position N (neutral).

NOTES ON RADIO RECEPTIONYour radio will be subject to certain phenom-ena that are not encountered by domestic systems.The reception of AM and FM signals may suf fer from inter ference, which is caused by the nature and propagation of the signals a n d d o e s n o t r e fl e c t o n t h e q u a l i t y o f y o u r radio installation.In AM, the reception may be affected when passing under power lines or bridges, or when travelling through tunnels.In FM mode, the reception may be affected by the distance from the station transmit- t e r , t h e r e fl e c t i n g o f s i g n a l s o f f o b s t a c l e s (mountains, hills, tower blocks) and radio blackspots (no coverage from the station transmitter).
S ELECTION OF RADIO SOURCEPress button D to select the source.You can also do this by means of control 5at the steering wheel.
S E L EC T I O N O F FR EQ U E N C I E S A N D MEMORY BANKSPress button E successively to go through the memor y banks FM1, FM 2 and FM 3, fo r t he FM waveband, and t he m em o r y banks MW/LW, for the AM waveband.
R A D I O S O U R C E
M ANUAL SEARCHManual seearch is via buttons J or M.By keeping button J or M pressed, you will be able to scroll through the waveband. Scrolling will stop as soon as you release the button. The radio will remain tuned to the frequency that is displayed.
T UNING SENSITIVITYAutomat ic searc hes c an be c ar r ied out according to two levels of sensitivity :To capture the most power ful transmit-ters, choose the local search mode “LO” (default option).To capture the weakest or most distant transmitters, choose the sensitive search mode “DX”. S e a r c h f o r a s t a t i o n i s d o n e fi r s t i n “LO” (loc al) sensitivit y, then in “DX” (dist ant) sensitivity.To commence a search in sensitivity “DX” (distant) immediately , press twice in succes-sion on one of the buttons K or N.
