The braking modulation provided by the ABS is independent of the effort applied to the brake pedal. In an emergency, apply firm and contin- uous pressure to the brake pedal There is no need to pump it repeat- edly.
2 – The orange warning
light x and the red brake fault warning light
D along with © and
® and the message ‘brake fault’ light up on the instrument panel.
This indicates that both the brak- ing system and the ABS system are faulty. Your braking systems are only partially operational. However, it is dangerous to brake suddenly and it is essential to stop immedi-
ately, as soon as traffic conditions allow. Contact an approved Dealer.
One of two situations may arise if there is a fault in the ABS system:
1 – The orange warning lights
x
and © light up on the instru- ment panel.
Braking is still performed, but with- out the ABS system. Contact an ap- proved Dealer as soon as possible.

Deactivating the A.S.R.
function results in the E.S.P. function being deactivated. Refer to the information on the “Traction control: ASR” on the following pages.
Operating faults
When the system detects an operat- ing fault the message “Check ESP” ap- pears on the instrument panel along
with warning lights © and A.
Consult an approved dealer.
Disabling the function
The function is deactivated by pressing
switch 1; warning light A will come on to warn you that the system has been deactivated.
This action also deactivates the trac- tion control mechanism: the message ‘ASR deselected’ appears on the in- strument panel. Refer to the informa- tion on “Traction control” in the follow- ing pages.
Correct this as soon as possible by
pressing switch 1 again.
The function is reactivated automati- cally when the ignition is switched on or when a speed of approximately 30 mph (50 km/h) is exceeded.
It is impossible to deselect this function when travelling above a threshold of approximately 30 mph (50 km/h).

Deactivating the A.S.R. function results in the E.S.P. function being deactivated. Refer to the information on the “Electronic stability program: E.S.P.” on the following pages.
Operating faults
When the system detects an operat- ing fault the message “Check E.S.P.” appears on the instrument panel along
with the © warning light and warn-
ing light A.
Consult an approved dealer.
Disabling the function
In some situations (driving on very wet ground: snow, mud, etc. or driving with snow chains fitted), the system may reduce the engine output to limit wheel- spin. If this is not required, it is possible to deactivate the function by pressing
switch 1.
The ‘traction control deselected’ mes- sage is displayed on the instrument panel along with warning light A to inform you.
Disabling the function also disables the E.S.P. function.
Correct this as soon as possible by
pressing switch 1 again.
The function is reactivated automati- cally when the ignition is switched on or when a speed of approximately 30 mph (50 km/h) is exceeded.

CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: speed limiter function (3/3)
Recalling the limit speed
A stored speed can be recalled by
pressing switch 5 (R) until the message “Speed limiter” is displayed.
Exceeding the limit speed
In the event of an emergency
It is possible to exceed the limit speed at any moment. To do this: press the accelerator pedal firmly and fully (beyond the kickdown point).
Whilst the speed is being exceeded, the cruising speed displayed on the in- strument panel flashes.
When the emergency has passed, re- lease the accelerator pedal: the speed
limiter function will return as soon as you reach a speed lower than the limit speed before the emergency.
Limit speed cannot be maintained
In some driving conditions (for example when driving up or down a steep gradi- ent), the system is unable to maintain the limit speed: the stored speed on the instrument panel information display will flash to inform you of this situation.
Switching off the function
The speed limiter function is interrupted when you press:
– switch
4 (O), in which case the limit speed remains stored and the mes- sage “Stored” appears on the instru- ment panel;
– switch
1, in which case the limit speed is no longer stored, and the in- dicator light on the instrument panel goes out to confirm that the function has been cancelled.

Driving
Once a cruising speed is stored 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.
The system is designed in such a way that it is possible to detect a dif- ference between the stored speed and the speed shown on the instru- ment panel.
Activating cruise control
At a steady speed (above 20 mph
(30 km/h) approximately) press switch 2
(+) or 3 (-): the speed is stored.
Cruise control activation is confirmed
when indicator light 6 is lit up in green
in addition to indicator light 7.
Switching on
Press switch 1 on the side showing
Ï.
Indicator light
7 on the instrument panel lights up to indicate that the cruise con- trol function is in operation.When the function is activated, the message ‘Cruise control’ appears on the instrument panel accompanied by dashes.

CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: cruise control function (3/4)
Exceeding the cruising speed
In the event of an emergency
The cruising speed may be exceeded at any time by depressing the accelera- tor pedal. Whilst the speed is being ex- ceeded, the cruising speed displayed on the instrument panel flashes.
Cruising speed cannot be main- tained
In some driving conditions (for exam- ple when driving down a steep gradi-
ent), the system is unable to maintain the cruising speed: the speed on the in- strument panel information display will flash to inform you of this situation.Varying the cruising speed
The cruising speed may be changed by pressing repeatedly or continuously on:
– 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.

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.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (2/3)

Driving in manual modeWith selector lever 1 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 circumstances
– Snow position: if you are driving on ground where you are likely to skid
(snow, mud, etc.), press switch 5 and
operating tell-tale 6 will come on.Once these special driving con- ditions no longer apply, exit this function by pressing switch 5 again. Operating tell-tale light 6 goes out. –
If the road contour and bends in the road do not allow you to stay in automatic mode (e.g.: in mountain- ous areas), it is recommended that you switch 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, start the engine and wait a few seconds before moving the selector lever from posi- tion P or N and engaging it in D or R to prevent the engine stalling.
–
Vehicles not fitted with traction control: on a slippery surface or surface with a low level of adhesion, change to manual mode and select second gear (or even third) before starting the engine to avoid wheel- spin when accelerating.

In very cold weather, the system may prevent the gears from being shifted in manual mode until the gearbox reaches the right tempera- ture.
