Traction control: ASR
This function is an addi- tional aid in the event of critical driving conditions, enabling the vehicle behav- iour to be adapted to suit the driving conditions.
However, the function does not take the place of the driver. It does not increase the vehicle’s limits and should not encourage you to drive more quickly.
Therefore, it can under no circum- stances replace the vigilance or re- sponsibility of the driver when ma- noeuvring the vehicle (the driver must always be ready for sudden in- cidents which may occur when driv- ing).
The system also adjusts the engine speed to the grip available under the wheels, independently of the pressure exerted on the accelerator pedal.
When the function begins to operate,
warning light A flashes to warn you.
If the warning light comes on accompa- nied by the ‘traction control deselected’ message when the engine is started, slowly turn the steering wheel from lock to lock to reinitialise the system.
Operating principle
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 automatically until the drive sup- plied becomes compatible with the level of grip under the wheel again.
This system helps to limit skidding on drive wheels and to control the vehicle when pulling away or accelerating.

Emergency brake assist
This function is an addi- tional aid in the event of critical driving conditions, enabling the vehicle behav- iour to be adapted to suit the driving conditions.
However, the function does not take the place of the driver. It does not increase the vehicle’s limits and should not encourage you to drive more quickly.
Therefore, it can under no circum- stances replace the vigilance or re- sponsibility of the driver when ma- noeuvring the vehicle (the driver must always be ready for sudden in- cidents which may occur when driv- ing).
This system supplements the ABS and helps reduce vehicle stopping dis- tances.
Operating principle
The system is for detecting an emer- gency braking situation. In this case, the braking assistance immediately de- velops maximum power and may trig- ger ABS regulation.
ABS braking is maintained as long as the brake pedal is applied.
Hazard warning lights

Depending on the vehicle, these may light up in the event of sudden decel- eration.

Switching off the function
Press switch 1. If you do this, the speed is not memorised.
The instrument panel green indicator
lights Ï and ¦ go out, con- firming that the function is deactivated.
Recalling the cruising speed
If a speed has been stored, it is possi-
ble to recall it by pressing switch 5 (R), on condition that you are driving faster than 20 mph (30 km/h) and that you are sure that the driving conditions are suitable (traffic, road surface condition, weather conditions, etc.).
Pressing switches 2 (+) or 3 (-) re- activates the cruise control func- tion without taking into account the memorised speed: it is the speed at which the vehicle is moving that is taken into account.
Putting the function on
standby
The function is interrupted when you:
– the switch
4 (O);
– the brake pedal;
– the clutch pedal or shift into neutral
if the vehicle has an automatic gear- box.
In all three cases, the cruising speed is stored.
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.

With your foot on the brake pedal (warn-
ing light 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.

Driving in automatic mode
Move lever 1 to position D.
In most traffic conditions, you will not have to touch the gear selector lever again: the gears will change automati- cally at the right time and at the most suitable engine speed because the au- tomatic system takes into account the vehicle load and road contour and ad- justs itself to the particular driving style you have chosen.
Economical driving
When driving, always leave the lever in position D, keeping the accelerator pedal lightly depressed to ensure au- tomatic gear changes at comparatively low engine speeds.
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.

Driving in automatic mode
Each time the ignition is switched on, automatic mode is selected by default (letter A on the display).
The vehicle is controlled using the ac- celerator and the brake.
Gears will change automatically at the correct moment and at a suitable engine speed because automatic mode takes into consideration the road sur- face and the chosen driving style.
You may modify the gear selected auto- matically by moving the lever forwards or backwards (except if there is a risk of under- or overrevving).
The oil level in the automatic gear- box system reservoir varies ac- cording to use. Adding oil is strictly forbidden (except by qualified ap-
proved network personnel).
QUICkSHIFT GEARBOX (3/5)
If the engine is being overrevved or underevved, the system will select the optimal gear.
Changing mode
You can change mode at any time by pushing the lever to the left. This switches mode without changing gear.
Driving in manual mode
Using the selector lever
Pushing the lever repeatedly allows you to change gears manually.
– to change up a gear: push the lever
forwards
– to change down a gear: push the lever backwards
– to change to neutral: with the brake
pedal depressed (indicator light 4 will come on if you forget), push the lever towards the right
Note: when the vehicle is stationary (braking, red light, etc.), the system au- tomatically switches to the most suita- ble gear.
Accelerating and overtaking
To obtain maximum vehicle perform- ance, in automatic or manual mode se- lected, quickly depress the accelerator pedal beyond the kickdown point.
This will activate the kickdown func- tion allowing you to change down to the most suitable gear.
Audible warning
If you leave the vehicle with the engine
running when in gear, an audible warn- ing will sound. You must switch to neu- tral before leaving the vehicle.

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.
