LANE DEPARTURE WARNING SYSTEM
This driving assistance device warns you when you unwittingly cross a lane marking (either a continuous or a dotted line on the road surface). It is desi-gned for use on motorways and dual carriageways, operating onlyabove
speeds of approx.50 mph (80 km/h).

A press on button 1activates the function, the warning lamp on the button lights up.
A second press on button 1 deactivates the function, the warning lamp on
the button goes out.
When you start the engine, the mode (activated/deactivated) selected when you stopped the engine is retained.
OPERATION
Above a speed of around 50 mph (80 km/h), if you cross a lane marking, you are alerted to this by a vibration within
the cushion of your seat:On the right hand side if you cross a lane marking to the right.
On the left hand side if you cross a lane marking to the left.
The system does not alert you if one of your direction indicators is operating and for approx. 20 seconds after the
direction indicator has stopped.
Remarks
This system is designed to identify traffi c lane markings.
In certain cases it ma
y trigger an alert that is unnecessary, for example if the vehicle passes over a directional arrow
or some unusual road marking.
The system may be affected temporarily by conditions external to the vehicle:Detection of lane markings made diffi cult by:
Markings being worn.Insuffi cient contrast with the general road surface.Sensors being negated by:
Driving in snow or heavy rain.Driving on roads that are covered with mud or water puddles.

If this device were not working properly, it could result in thewindows breaking:If there should be a battery failure:
Open the doors gently.Do not close the door abruptly as this risks breaking the window, if possible wait until the battery ispowering the vehicle again.If you are intending to work on the battery, open the windows fi rst.In freezing conditions, ice may form to hinder the operation of the micro-descent device. If the actionon the door handle does not move the window down, it is essential fi rst to free the ice.

AUTOMATIC AIR CONDITIONING
Remarks:When starting from cold, in order to prevent
unwanted cold air, the air fl ow will increase onlygradually to its optimum level.
If you enter the vehicle after a fairly prolongedstop and the temperature inside the vehicle is
uncomfortable, it serves no purpose to modify
the temperature that is displayed as an attempt
to go immediately to the desired comfort level.
The system automatically uses all of its power tocompensate the temperature gap as quickly as possible.
Remarks:Water arising from the condensation in the air conditioning drains out through a hole provided for this purpose; a pool of water may thus form
underneath the vehicle when stationary.
Whatever the time of year, even in cool weather the
air conditioning is useful in removing humidity and
misting.
You are advised to have the air conditioning system checked on a regular basis. See
"Maintenance and Warranty Guide".
If you are towing a heavy trailer and outside
temperatures are high, the air conditioning may
be temporarily paused if the engine cooling
requires this.

SUN ROOF
Glass sun roof
The sun roof is operated by theelectrical controlA.
An action to the fi rst notch of thecontrol starts a movement whichstops as soon as you release thecontrol.
An action to the second notch of
the control opens or closes the sun
roof fully. A further action stops themovement.
ANTI-PINCH
An anti-pinch device is present to stop the sun roof from sliding shut. If it
meets an obstacle it slides in the opposite direction.
After a battery disconnection or if there has been a malfunction, youhave to re-initialisethe anti-pinch function.
To do that, move the control Ato the second notch to make the sun roof open fully, then keep the control A pressed for at least1seconds.
Warnin
g: During this manœuvre, the anti-pinch does not operate.
Your vehicle's sun roof has a manually-
operated blind.
Always remove the ignition key when leaving the vehicle, even if for a short time.
In the event of anything being caught by the sun roof closing, you must reverse the roof movement.
To do that, reverse the position of the control concerned.
When the driver is operating the sun roof, he or she must always make sure that the passengers are not preventing it from closing properly.
The driver must ensure that passengers use the sun roof control correctly.
