DRIVING
FOUR WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEMFOUR WH
WITH ELECTRONIC CONTROL WITH E
4WD AUTO (position 1)
The vehicle operates with four wheel
drive and provides optimum traction re-
gardless of the level of grip.
This is the vehicle's normal and regular
operating mode, the distribution of the
torque between the front and rear axles
is controlled automatically.
The distribution favours the front wheels,
the transfer of torque to the rear wheels
is managed electronically by the control
unit in relation to the level of grip, so
providing optimum road holding.
Three transmission modes are avail-
able and can be selected manually by
the driver in accordance with his re-
quirements.
You can change transmission mode
when stationary or while driving at a
speed below 60 mph (100 km/h)
.
The transmission mode can be selected
by turning the control A
.
Display in the instrument panel
The transmission mode is displayed
in the form of an intermittent display in
the instrument panel screen when the
transmission mode is selected.
Selecting the transmission
mode
The selection of this mode is
recommended when the level of
grip permits.
2WD (position 3)
The vehicle operates with front two
wheel drive.
This mode corresponds to use on a tar-
macked road on which the driver con-
siders that there is no risk of loss of grip
(dry road).
4WD LOCK (position 2)
The vehicle operates with four wheel
drive in this mode also.
It is recommended when grip is particularly
poor or diffi cult (sand, mud, slopes, ...). System which permits the selection of
a transmission mode in relation to the
driving conditions.

AUDIO EQUIPMENT and TELEMATICS
General notes on MP3/WMA CDs
Playing an MP3/WMA CD
Copyright
Your Audio equipment may allow you
to listen to music which is usually pro-
tected by copyright in accordance
with current national and international
standards. Please consult these stan-
dards and comply with them.
Acceptance of the fi les
Some blank CDs may not be played
by your equipment (quality, recording
speed...).
When you burn a CD-R or CD-RW,
select the ISO 9660 level 1.2 or Joliet
burning standard.
To obtain the best acoustic quality pos-
sible, select the lowest burning speed.
The MPEG1 and MPEG2 standards
are accepted.
Transmission speeds between 32 and
320 kbits/s and scans between 16 kHz
and 48 kHz are accepted.
To display the title information (the
name of the artist, the title of the album,
etc...), the information contained in the
ID3 Tags or the WMA Tags must be in-
cluded in the MP3/WMA fi les burned
onto the disc.
What is the MP3/WMA fi le format?
MP3 is the abbreviation of MPEG-1 Audio
Layer 3 and MPG is the abbreviation of
Motion Pictures Experts Group, a digital
video data compression standard used on
media such as video CDs.
The MP3 compression reduces the
number of bytes in a song by eliminat-
ing the long sound waves in the range of
frequencies which are imperceptible to
the human ear, so producing high quality
audio fi les with a low volume of data.
This compression divides the size of
the content of a conventional audio CD
by approximately 10, which means that
the content of 10 audio CDs can be re-
corded onto a single CD-R or CD-RW.
WMA is the abbreviation of Windows
Media Audio, another audio data com-
pression standard offered by Microsoft.
It can be used to create and save audio
fi les at a compression rate higher than
that of the MP3 format.
Windows Media and Microsoft Corpo-
ration are trademarks registered in the
United States and/or other countries. When the MP3/WMA CD
is inserted in the player,
playing of the tracks is
automatic.
The tracks cannot be record-
ed onto the music server.
You can play CDs with up
to 8 levels, 255 folders and
400 fi les maximum.
