AUDIO Radio reception
Your audio equipment will
be subjected to phenomena
which do not affect domestic radio
sets. Both MW/LW and FM reception
are subject to various forms of inter-
f e r e n c e . T h i s i s n o r e fl e c t i o n o n t h e
quality of the equipment but is due to
the nature of the signals and the way
in which they are transmitted.
On MW/LW, interference may be no-
ticed when passing under high voltage power lines or bridges, or in tunnels.
On FM, interference may be the re-
sult of increasing distance from the
t r a n s m i t t e r , d e fl e c t i o n o f t h e s i g n a l
by obstacles (mountains, hills, build-
ings, etc) or of being in an area which
is not covered by a transmitter.
Automatic storing of FM
stations (autostore)
Press this button.
Your audio equipment
automatically stores
the six best transmit-
ters received on AM and FM in your
current location. These stations are
stored on the AM and FM3 wave-
bands. The end of the search is sig-
nalled by two audible signals. Recalling stored stations
On each waveband, a brief press on
one of the buttons
"1" to "6" recalls
the corresponding stored station.

AUDIO
Regional mode (REG)
Some stations, organised in a network,
broadcast regional programmes in the
various regions which they serve. The
regional mode enables you to continue
listening to the same programme. Search by type of programme
(PTY)
This enables you to listen to sta-
tions which broadcast a type of pro-
gramme which has a theme (NEWS, SPORTS, TALK, POP, CLASSICS).
EON system
This system links stations which be-
long to the same network. It permits
t h e t r a n s m i s s i o n o f t r a f fi c i n f o r m a t i o n
broadcast by a station which belongs
to the same network as the station to
which you are listening.

Using the AF (alternative
frequency) function on the FM
waveband
The
RDS (Radio Data System) en-
ables you to continue listening to the
same station irrespective of the fre-
quency that it uses in your current
location. The audio equipment con-
tinuously searches for the transmitter
which provides the best reception.
Press this button suc-
cessively to activate
or deactivate the func-tion.
On FM, the multifunction display will
indicate:
- "TP" or "TP EON" : the radio
transmits a programme while
awaiting the broadcasting of
t r a f fi c i n f o r m a t i o n .
- "TA" or "TA EON" : the pro-
gramme transmitted by the radio
is put on standby while awaiting
t h e b r o a d c a s t i n g o f t r a f fi c i n f o r -
mation.
If you wish to interrupt the transmis-
sion of a message, press this button
again.

ing wheel.
HAZARD WARNING LAMPS
Press the button, the direction indica-
t o r s fl a s h .
They can operate with the ignition off.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (ABS) AND BRAKING SYSTEMS (EBFD AND CSC * )
When the vehicle is being driv-
en, illumination of this warning
lamp indicates that the parking
brake is still on or has not been
properly released.
When parking on a slope,
direct your wheels towards
the pavement and pull the
parking brake
on
.
PARKING BRAKE
Applying
Pull the parking brake to immobilise
your vehicle.
When changing wheels
(tyres), make sure that these
are approved.
The anti-lock braking system comes
into operation automatically when
there is a risk of wheel lock.
Releasing
Pull on the handle and press the button
to release the parking brake.
* The CSC system is linked with the E B F D o n v e h i c l e s w h i c h a r e n o t fi t t e d
with ASR/ESP systems.
EMERGENCY BRAKING ASSISTANCE
The ABS, in conjunction with the EBFD and CSC * braking systems, increases
the stability and manoeuvrability of
your vehicle on braking and provides
improved control, in particular on poor
or slippery road surfaces.
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the
event of emergency braking.
The EBFD and CSC * systems pro-
vide full control of the braking pres-
sure wheel by wheel. A distribution
between:
- the front and the rear in the case of the EBFD (Electronic Brake
Force Distribution),
- the left and the right in the case of the CSC * (Cornering Stability
Control).
In an emergency, this system enables you to reach the optimum braking
pressure more quickly and therefore
reduce the stopping distance.
It is triggered by the speed at which
the brake pedal is pressed. This is
felt by a reduction in the resistance
of the pedal and an increase in the
effectiveness of the braking.
