CHILD SAFETY LOCKS
Child safety locks are fitted to the rear doors to

interior handles are disabled.
Note: For convenience, the rear door interior
handles should be re-e nabled when carrying
adult passengers in th e rear seat positions.
To change the child lock settings:-
1. Open the door to access the child safety
lock.
2. Insert the emergency key into the slot and

Pedestrian protection
66

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The pedestrian protection system has been
designed to reduce lower leg and head injuries
in the event of a frontal collision with a
pedestrian.
The bumper includes energy absorbing foam
and plastics in its cons truction to reduce leg
injuries and sensors th at detect the collision
with a pedestrian.
Deployment
During a pedestrian co llision, the sensors
initiate a bonnet deploy ment system that
releases the bonnet hinge system and raises
the rear edge of the bonnet by approximately
130 mm (5.1 inches).
This increases the gap between the bonnet and
the components within the engine
compartment e.g. engine, suspension etc. This
increased gap creates a cushion to mitigate
injury caused to the pedestrian.
The bonnet deployment system is active only
when the ignition is on and the vehicle is driven
between the speeds of approximately 20 km/h
(12 mph) and 45 km/h (28 mph).
AFTER DEPLOYMENT OF THE
PEDESTRIAN PROTECTION SYSTEM
The vehicle must be stopped as soon as it is
safe to do so.
The hazard warning lamp s will be activated and
can only be switched off by pressing the engine
START/STOP button to turn the engine off and
on again.
A warning message CHECK PEDESTRIAN
SYSTEM will appear on the message centre
and the vehicle should be transported to the
nearest Dealer/Author ised Repairer. The
vehicle must not be driven when the bonnet
has been deployed. See Vehicle recovery
(page 253).
Note: If the warning message CHECK
PEDESTRIAN SYSTEM appears in the message
centre when the bonnet ha s not been deployed,
the vehicle should be taken to the nearest
Dealer/Authorised Repairer immediately. It can
be driven.
If any significant damage occurs to the front
bumper it should be inspected by a
Dealer/Authorised Repairer as soon as
possible.
E94698
CAUTION
Do not attempt to open the bonnet if the
pedestrian protection system has been
deployed.

ADJUSTING THE STEERING WHEEL
The steering wheel can be adjusted for tilt and
reach, as follows:
1.Turn the switch to the COLUMN or AUTO
position.
2. Move the switch forwards or rearwards to
adjust reach.
3. Move the switch up or down to adjust tilt. Two steering wheel positions can be stored
and recalled by the dr
iver position memory
system.
The message centre will indicate which switch
position has been select ed by displaying the
message COLUMN ADJUST or COLUMN

Entry and exit mode
Entry and exit mode provides automatic
movement of the steering column, to allow
easier entry to, or exit from, the vehicle.
Entry and exit mode is selected by setting the
steering column adjustment switch to the
AUTO position.
Exit: If the driver's door is opened, the steering
column will move to the uppermost tilt
position, unless alread y in that position.
Entry: When the door is closed and the ignition
is switched on, the steering column will return
to its previous position.
Note: If the steering column switch is moved
away from AUTO when the steering column is
in the Exit position, the steering column will
move back to its previous (driving) position,
when the driver's door is closed and the
ignition is switched on.
If the steering column position is manually
adjusted during Entry or Exit operation,
steering column movement will stop.
WARNING
Never adjust the steering wheel
position whilst the vehicle is in
motion. Doing so will reduce control
of the vehicle and may cause unpredictable
steering movements.
CAUTION
Do not use steering wheel mounted
security devices, as movement of the
steering wheel in entr y and exit mode, could
result in damage to the vehicle or possible
injury to the occupant.

sounding before giving a voice command.
Give commands while facing forwards, in a
natural speaking voice as if talking to a

understood without difficul ty, but if the system
does not recognise the command, the system
will respond with SORRY and allow two more
attempts to say the command.
The system will repe at the command (as
understood by the system ) back to you as
confirmation. The comma nd will then be acted
on or the system will ask for further
information - always wait until after the tone
has sounded before speaking.
Once you are familiar with system requests, it
is possible to skip to the end of the request (to
when the tone sounds) to give your response.
To achieve this, briefly press and release the
voice button on the steering wheel during the
system request.
Note: If the Voice button on the steering wheel
is pressed before the system is ready to receive
