tion is switched on. It indicates that the
heater plugs are in operation. It goes
out after preheating is sufficient and the
engine can be started.
åAirbag warning light
This comes on when the igni -
tion is switched on and goes out after
a few seconds. If it does not come on
when the ignition is switched on or if it
flashes, there is a fault in the system.

possible.
xAnti-lock braking warning
light
This lights up when the ignition is
switched on and goes out after a few
seconds.
If it does not go out after the ignition is
switched on, or lights up when driving,
there is a fault with the ABS. Braking
will then be as normal, without the ABS
system.
Contact an approved Dealer as soon as
possible.
LLow fuel level warning light
This comes on when the igni -
tion is switched on and goes out after a
few seconds. If it comes on when driv-
ing accompanied by a beep, fill up with
fuel as soon as possible. There is only
approximately 30 miles (50 km) worth
of fuel left after the warning light first
comes on.

– Brake as little as possible by suitably
anticipating an obstacle or bend and
then simply releasing the accelerator
pedal.
– Avoid sudden acceleration.
– Do not overrev the engine in the in-
termediate gears.
Always use the highest gear possi -
ble without labouring the engine.
– Do not try to maintain the same
speed up a hill, accelerate no more
than you would on level roads. Keep
your foot in the same position on the
accelerator pedal.
– Double declutching and accelerating
before switching off the engine are
unnecessary in modern vehicles.
– Bad weather, flooded roads.
Do not drive through water
if it is higher than the lower
edge of the wheel rim.
Exhaust gas monitoring
system
The exhaust gas monitoring system will
detect any operating faults in the vehi-
cle’s antipollution system.
If this system malfunctions, toxic sub -
stances may be released into the at -
mosphere or damage may occur.
ÄThis warning light on the in -
strument panel will indicate if
there are any faults in the system:
This lights up when the ignition is
switched on and goes out when the
engine is started.
– If it lights up continuously, consult
your approved dealer as soon as
possible;
– if it flashes, reduce the engine speed
until the light stops flashing. Contact
your approved dealer as soon as
possible.
Driving
– Drive carefully for the first few miles
until the engine reaches its normal
operating temperature, rather than
let it warm up while the vehicle is sta-
tionary.
– Speed is expensive.
– Sporty driving uses a lot of fuel: drive
with a light right foot.
ADvICE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (2/3)
Driver obstruction
On the driver’s side, only use mats suitable for the vehicle, attached with
the pre-fitted components, and check the fitting regularly. Do not lay sev-
eral mats on top of each other.
There is a risk of wedging the pedals.

ABS (Anti-lock Braking
System)
Under heavy braking, the ABS prevents
the wheels from locking, allowing the
stopping distance to be managed and
keeping control of the vehicle.
Under these circumstances, the vehi -
cle can be steered to avoid an obstacle
whilst braking. In addition, this system
can increase stopping distances, par -
ticularly on roads with low surface grip
(wet ground etc.).
You will feel a pulsation through the
brake pedal each time the system is
activated. The ABS does not in any way
improve the vehicle’s physical perform-
ance relating to the road surface and
roadholding. It is still essential to follow
the rules of good driving practice (such
as driving at a safe distance from the
vehicle in front, etc.). Operating faults:
–
If the
x warning light on the in-
strument panel comes on while driv-
ing, braking is still operational ;
– If the
x and D warning
lights on the instrument panel come
on when driving, this indicates a
fault with the braking system.
ABS, ESP and emergency brake assist
are deactivated.
Consult an approved dealer.
Depending on the vehicle, this is com-
posed of:
– ABS (anti-lock braking system);
– electronic stability program (ESP)
with understeer control and trac -
tion control (ASR);
– emergency brake assist with, de -
pending on the vehicle, braking
anticipation;
In an emergency, apply firm and
continuous pressure to the brake
pedal. There is no need to pump
it repeatedly. The ABS will modu -
late the force applied in the braking
system.
These functions are an ad-
ditional aid in the event of
critical driving conditions,
enabling the vehicle behav -
iour to be adapted to suit the driving
conditions.
However, the functions do not take
the place of the driver. They do
not increase the vehicle’s limits
and should not encourage you
to drive more quickly. Therefore,
they can under no circumstances
replace the vigilance or responsibil -
ity of the driver when manoeuvring
the vehicle (the driver must always
be ready for sudden incidents which
may occur when driving).
Yo u r b r a k i n g s y s t e m s
are partially operational.
However, it is dangerous
to brake suddenly and
it is essential to stop immediately,
as soon as traffic conditions allow.
Contact an approved dealer.

Electronic stability program
(ESP) with understeer control
and traction control (ASR)
Electronic stability control ESC
This system helps you to keep control
of the vehicle in critical driving condi -
tions (avoiding an obstacle, loss of grip
on a bend, etc.).
Operating principle
A sensor in the steering wheel detects
the direction selected by the driver.
Other sensors throughout the vehicle
measure the actual direction.
The system compares driver input to
the actual trajectory of the vehicle and
corrects the trajectory if necessary by
controlling the braking of certain wheels
and/or engine power. In the event that
the system is engaged, indicator light
flashes on the instrument panel. Operating faults
When the system detects an operating
fault, the
and/or warning
lights on the instrument panel come on.
In this case, the ESP and traction con-
trol are deactivated.
Consult an approved dealer.
Understeer control
This system optimises the action of the
ESP in the case of pronounced unders-
teering (loss of front axle grip).
Traction control ASR
This system helps to limit wheelspin of
the drive wheels and to control the ve-
hicle when pulling away accelerating or
decelerating.
Operating principle
Using the wheel sensors, the system
measures and compares the speed of
the drive wheels at all times and slows
down their over-rotation. If a wheel is
starting to slip, the system brakes au
-
tomatically until the drive supplied be -
comes compatible with the level of grip
under the wheel again.
The system also adjusts the engine
speed to the grip available under the
wheels, independently of the pressure
exerted on the accelerator pedal.

DRIvER CORRECTION DEvICES/AIDS (3/3)
The traction control ASR offers addi -
tional safety, it is recommended that
you do not drive with the function disa-
bled. Correct this as soon as possible
by pressing switch 1 again.
Note: The function is reactivated auto-
matically when the ignition is switched
on or when a speed of approximately
30 mph (50 km/h) is exceeded.
Emergency brake assist
This is an additional system to ABS
which helps reduce vehicle stopping
distances.
Operating principle
The system detects an emergency
braking situation. In this case, the brak-
ing assistance immediately develops
maximum power and may trigger ABS
regulation.
ABS braking is maintained as long as
the brake pedal is not released.
Hazard warning lights switching on
Depending on the vehicle, these may
light up in the event of sudden decel -
eration.
Operating faults
When the system detects an operating
fault, the warning light
x is dis -
played on the instrument panel.
Consult an approved dealer.
Braking anticipation
Depending on the vehicle, when you
rapidly release the accelerator, the
system anticipates the braking ma -
noeuvre in order to reduce stopping
distances.
Disabling the ASR 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. In this case, the warning light
comes on, on the instrument
panel. This action does not deactivate
the ESP.
