AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (3/3)
– 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.Parking the vehicleWhen the vehicle is stopped, move the
lever to position P while keeping your
foot on the brake pedal: the gearbox is
in neutral and the drive wheels are me-
chanically locked by the driveshaft.
Apply the handbrake.
Operating faults
If a vehicle with an automatic gear -
box breaks down, please refer to the
information on “Towing” in Section 5.
When setting off, if the lever is locked
in position P when you are pressing the
brake pedal, the lever can be released
manually. To do this, unclip the base of
the lever, and press recess 7 and the
unlocking button 2 simultaneously.
In very cold weather , the system
may prevent the gears from being
shifted in manual mode until the
gearbox reaches the right tempera-
ture.
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.
For safety reasons, do not
switch off the ignition before
the vehicle has come to a
complete standstill.

inflating and read the pressure (on
the pressure gauge 4);
Note: while the bottle is emptying
(approximately 30 seconds), pres -
sure gauge 4 will briefly indicate a
pressure of 6 bar, then the pressure
will drop.
– adjust the pressure: to increase
it, continue inflating with the kit, to
reduce it, turn button 7 located on
the inflation adapter.
If a minimum pressure of 1.8 bar is
not reached after 15 minutes, repair
is not possible; do not drive the vehi-
cle but contact an approved dealer .

the vehicle at a sufficient
distance from traffic, switch
on the hazard warning
lights, apply the handbrake, ask all
passengers to leave the vehicle and
keep them away from traffic.

essential not to remove the cap from
the bottle) then screw bottle 2 to its
base 3.

Changing a wheel
CHANGING A WHEEL (1/2)
Switch on the hazard warn-
ing lights.
Park the vehicle away from
traffic on firm, flat, non-slip -
pery ground (if necessary, place a
solid support under the jack base).
Apply the handbrake and engage a
gear (first or reverse gear).
Ask the passengers to leave the ve-
hicle and to keep away from traffic.
If you have a puncture, re -
place the wheel as soon as
possible.
A tyre which has been punc-
tured should always be inspected
(and repaired, where possible) by a
specialist.
Vehicles equipped with a jack
and wheelbrace
If necessary, remove the wheel trim,
refer to the information on “Wheel trims
- Wheels” in this Section. Undo the
wheel bolts using wheelbrace 4 . Fit it
so that you press downwards rather
than pulling upwards. Mark hole
1 , which is the nearest to
the wheel in question. The jack must
be fitted in this location. Offer up jack 3
horizontally and position jack head 2
under the sill.
Start cranking the jack up by hand to
align the base plate (which should be
pushed slightly under the vehicle).
Turn the wheelbrace until the wheel lifts
off the ground.
Remove the bolts.
Take off the wheel.
Fit the emergency spare wheel on
the central hub and turn it to align the
mounting holes in the wheel and the
hub.
To prevent any risk of injury
or damage to the vehicle,
only crank the jack until the
wheel you are replacing is
a maximum of 3 centimetres off the
ground.
If the vehicle is parked on
the hard shoulder, you must
warn other road users of
your vehicle’s presence
with a warning triangle or with other
devices as per the legislation apply-
ing to the country you are in.
