HEATING, VENTILATION, AIR CONDITIONING (3/4)
Switching passenger
compartment isolation mode/
air recirculation mode on
Push control D to the left.
Under these conditions, air is taken
from the passenger compartment and
is recirculated, with no air being taken
from outside the vehicle. Air recirculation is used to:
–
isolate the passenger compartment
from the external atmosphere (eg.:
driving in polluted areas, etc.);
– bring the passenger compartment to
the desired temperature more effec-
tively.
To return to the external air position,
push control D to the right.
Prolonged use of this position
can lead to condensation forming
on the side windows and wind -
screen and problems due to the
use of non-renewed air in the
passenger compartment.
It is therefore advisable to return to
normal operation (external air) by
moving control D to the right once
you are out of the polluted area.

HEATING, VENTILATION, AIR CONDITIONING (4/4)
yAdjusting the
ventilation speed
Turn control C from 0 to 4. The further
to the right it is positioned, the more air
is blown into the passenger compart -
ment. If you want to shut off the flow of
air completely and stop the system, set
control C to 0.
The system is deactivated: the ventila -
tion speed for the passenger compart-
ment air is zero (vehicle stationary),
you can however still feel a slight flow
of air when the vehicle is moving.
Adjusting the air temperatureTurn control F.
To the right: maximum possible tem -
perature.
To the left: minimum possible tempera-
ture.
VHeated rear screen(depending on vehicle)
With the engine running, press
button E (the warning light on the in -
strument panel comes on).
This function de-ices/demists the rear
screen and the electric de-icing rear -
view mirrors (depending on the vehi -
cle).
Depending on the vehicle, the function
is stopped:
– automatically after it has been run -
ning for 12 minutes (the indicator
light goes out);
– by pressing button E again (the
warning light goes out).CEF
Before using the rear wiper, check that no object is obstructing the travel of the
blade.
In frosty weather, make sure that the wiper blades are not stuck by ice (to avoid
the risk of the motor overheating).
Keep an eye on the condition of the blades. Replace the wiper blades as soon as
they begin to lose efficiency (approximately once a year).
Regularly clean your rear screen.

BODyWORK MAINTENANCE, ENGINE COMPARTMENT (1/3)
A well-maintained vehicle has a longer
service life. It is therefore recom -
mended that attention is paid to the out-
side of the vehicle on a regular basis.
Protection against the effects
of corrosive agents
Although your vehicle has been treated
with very effective anti-corrosion prod -
ucts, it nevertheless remains subject to
the effects of:
– corrosives in the atmosphere
– atmospheric pollution (urban and in-
dustrial areas);
– saline atmosphere (near the sea,
particularly in hot weather);
– seasonal and damp climatic condi -
tions, (e.g.: road salt in winter, water
from road cleaners, etc.).
– abrasives
Wind-borne dust and sand, mud, road grit thrown up by other vehicles, etc.
– minor impacts
You should take a minimum number of
precautions in order to safeguard your
vehicle against such risks and not to
lose the benefit of your vehicle’s anti -
corrosion protection.
y ou should not:
– Degrease or clean mechanical com-
ponents, underneath the body, parts
with hinges (eg. fuel filler cap, inside
the fuel flap) and painted plastic ex-
ternal fittings (eg. bumpers) using
high-pressure cleaning equipment
or by spraying on products not ap -
proved by our Technical Department.
If adequate precautions are not
taken, this could cause corrosion or
lead to operational faults.
– Aim a high pressure water jet directly
onto damaged parts of the vehicle
(eg. painted bumpers, lights, etc.).
Wash these parts carefully by hand.
– Wash the vehicle in bright sunlight or
freezing temperatures. –
Use hard brushes to clean alloy
wheels. These can scratch or
damage the wheel’s protective coat-
ing.
– Scrape off mud or dirt without
prewetting.
– Allow dirt to accumulate.
– Allow rust to form following minor im-
pacts.
– Use solvents not approved by the
Technical Department to remove
stains as this could damage the
paintwork.
– Drive when the vehicle is muddy or
covered in snow (the wheel arches,
underneath the body, radiator, etc.
must always be free from mud or
snow).
It is forbidden to wash the engine compartment using a high-pressure
water jet: this risks damaging the electrical/electronic components in the
engine compartment.
A label affixed in the engine compartment reminds you of this.

Glass instrument panel(e.g.: instrument panel, clock, exterior
temperature display, radio display).
Use a soft or cotton cloth. If this does
not clean them properly, use a soft cloth
(or cotton wool) slightly moistened with
soapy water and then wipe clean with
another damp soft or cotton cloth.
Finally, dry off carefully with a soft dry
cloth.
Cleaning products containing alco -
hol must not be used under any cir-
cumstances.
Seat belts
These must be kept clean. Use products
selected by our Technical Department
or warm, soapy water and a sponge
and wipe with a dry cloth.
Detergents or dyes must not be used
under any circumstances.
Interior trim maintenance
INTERIOR TRIM MAINTENANCE (1/2)
A well-maintained vehicle will have a
longer service life. It is therefore ad -
visable to maintain the vehicle interior
regularly.
Stains should always be dealt with
quickly. Whatever type of stain is on
the trim, use soapy water (if possible,
warm water) containing:
Do not use detergents (washing up
liquid, powdered products, alcohol -
based products, etc.).
Use a soft cloth.
Rinse and soak up the excess.Fabrics (seats, door trim,
etc.)
Dust fabrics regularly.
Liquid stains
Use soapy water.
Dab lightly (never rub) with a soft cloth,
rinse and remove the excess.
Solid or thick stains
Remove any excess solid or thick ma-
terial immediately and carefully using
a spatula (from the edge inwards to
avoid spreading the stain).
Clean using the procedure for a liquid
stain.
Special instructions for sweets or
chewing gum
Put an ice cube on the stain to solidify
it, then proceed as for a solid stain.
For advice on interior maintenance
and/or on unsatisfactory results,
contact an approved dealer.

On the road POSSIBLE CAUSESWHAT TO DO
The power-assisted steering be -
comes heavy. Belt broken.
Lack of power-assisted steer
-
ing oil in the pump. Have the belt replaced.
For maintenance operations on the power-assisted
steering, contact an approved dealer.
The engine overheats. The coolant
temperature indicator light comes
on. Engine cooling fan not work
-
ing. Stop the vehicle, switch off the engine and contact
an approved dealer.
Coolant leaks. Stop the vehicle, switch off the engine and check
the coolant reservoir: it should contain fluid. If there
is no coolant, consult an approved dealer as soon
as possible.
Radiator blocked or clogged. Stop the vehicle, switch off the engine and clean
the radiator (refer to the information on “Bodywork
maintenance/engine compartment” in Section 2). If
it is clean, consult an approved dealer as soon as
possible.
OPERATING FAULTS (4/5)
Radiator: If there is a significant lack of coolant, remember that it must never be topped up using cold coolant while
the engine is very warm. After any procedure on the vehicle which has involved even partial draining of the cooling
system, it must be refilled with a new mixture prepared in the correct proportions. Reminder: only products approved
by the Technical Department may be used for this purpose.

Electrical equipment POSSIBLE CAUSES WHAT TO DO
The wipers do not work. Wiper blades stuck. Free the blades before using the wipers.
Faulty electrical circuit. Consult an approved dealer.
The wiper does not stop. Faulty electrical controls. Consult an approved dealer.
Direction indicators flashing more
quickly. Blown bulb.
Replace the bulb.
The direction indicators do not work. Faulty electrical circuit. Consult an approved dealer.

Traces of condensation in the lights. This is not a fault. Traces of condensa-
tion are a natural phenomenon caused
by variations in temperature.
These traces soon disappear when the
lights are switched on.
