Traction control: ASR
This function is an addi -
tional aid in the event of
critical driving conditions,
enabling the vehicle behav -
iour to be adapted to suit the driving
conditions.
However, the function does not take
the place of the driver. It does not
increase the vehicle’s limits and
should not encourage you to
drive more quickly.
Therefore, it can under no circum -
stances replace the vigilance or re-
sponsibility of the driver when ma -
noeuvring the vehicle (the driver
must always be ready for sudden in-
cidents which may occur when driv-
ing).
The system also adjusts the engine
speed to the grip available under the
wheels, independently of the pressure
exerted on the accelerator pedal.
When the function begins to operate,
warning light A flashes to warn you.
If the warning light comes on accompa -
nied by the ‘traction control deselected’
message when the engine is started,
slowly turn the steering wheel from lock
to lock to reinitialise the system.
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 automatically until the drive sup-
plied becomes compatible with the level
of grip under the wheel again.
This system helps to limit skidding on
drive wheels and to control the vehicle
when pulling away or accelerating.

Emergency brake assist
This function is an addi -
tional aid in the event of
critical driving conditions,
enabling the vehicle behav -
iour to be adapted to suit the driving
conditions.
However, the function does not take
the place of the driver. It does not
increase the vehicle’s limits and
should not encourage you to
drive more quickly.
Therefore, it can under no circum -
stances replace the vigilance or re-
sponsibility of the driver when ma -
noeuvring the vehicle (the driver
must always be ready for sudden in-
cidents which may occur when driv-
ing).
This system supplements the ABS
and helps reduce vehicle stopping dis-
tances.
Operating principle
The system is for detecting an emer -
gency braking situation. In this case,
the braking assistance immediately de-
velops maximum power and may trig -
ger ABS regulation.
ABS braking is maintained as long as
the brake pedal is applied.
Hazard warning lights

Depending on the vehicle, these may
light up in the event of sudden decel -
eration.

Switching off the function
Press switch 1. If you do this, the speed
is not memorised.
The instrument panel green indicator
lights
Ï and ¦ go out, con -
firming that the function is deactivated.
Recalling the cruising speed
If a speed has been stored, it is possi-
ble to recall it by pressing switch 5 (R),
on condition that you are driving faster
than 20 mph (30 km/h) and that you
are sure that the driving conditions are
suitable (traffic, road surface condition,
weather conditions, etc.).
Pressing switches 2 (+) or 3 (-) re -
activates the cruise control func -
tion without taking into account the
memorised speed: it is the speed at
which the vehicle is moving that is
taken into account.
Putting the function on
standby
The function is interrupted when you:
– the switch 4 (O);
– the brake pedal;
– the clutch pedal or shift into neutral
if the vehicle has an automatic gear-
box.
In all three cases, the cruising speed is
stored.
Standby is confirmed when indicator
light
¦ goes out.
CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: cruise control function (4/4)
Putting the cruise control
on standby or switching it
off does not cause a rapid
reduction in speed: you
must brake by depressing the brake
pedal.

Operation
With gear lever 1 in position P, start the
engine.
With your foot on the brake pedal (warn-
ing light 4 goes out), move the lever out
of position P.
Only engage D or R when the vehi -
cle is stopped, with your foot on the
brake and the accelerator pedal re -
leased.
You must apply the brake before
pressing unlocking button 2 to move
out of position P.

Driving in automatic mode
Move lever 1 to position D.
In most traffic conditions, you will not
have to touch the gear selector lever
again: the gears will change automati -
cally at the right time and at the most
suitable engine speed because the au-
tomatic system takes into account the
vehicle load and road contour and ad-
justs itself to the particular driving style
you have chosen.
Economical driving
When driving, always leave the lever
in position D, keeping the accelerator
pedal lightly depressed to ensure au -
tomatic gear changes at comparatively
low engine speeds.
Accelerating and overtaking
Depress the accelerator pedal firmly
and fully (so that it goes beyond the
kickdown point).
This will enable you to change down
to the optimum gear within the
engine range.

Operation
Switch on the ignition.
The display on the instrument panel
switches on. If neutral (N) is displayed,
start the engine but do not depress the
accelerator.
If a gear other than neutral ( N) is dis -
played, it will flash; starting is possi-
ble if you depress the brake pedal
(indicator light 4 will come on if you
forget) when holding the key in the
starting position.
The gear will automatically change to
neutral (N) and the engine will start.
You may also select neutral after
switching on the ignition by pushing the
lever to the right whilst depressing the
brake pedal.
When the engine is running, automatic
mode will be selected by default.
Note: if the display does not light up
when the ignition is switched on (dis -
charged battery), do not attempt to start
the engine by pushing the vehicle. Shifting to neutral

push the selector lever towards the
right and backwards, and then re -
lease it.
Reverse gear is engaged (letter R
appears on the display).

Driving in automatic mode
Each time the ignition is switched on,
automatic mode is selected by default
(letter A on the display).
The vehicle is controlled using the ac -
celerator and the brake.
Gears will change automatically at
the correct moment and at a suitable
engine speed because automatic mode
takes into consideration the road sur -
face and the chosen driving style.
You may modify the gear selected auto-
matically by moving the lever forwards
or backwards (except if there is a risk of
under- or overrevving).
The oil level in the automatic gear-
box system reservoir varies ac -
cording to use. Adding oil is strictly
forbidden (except by qualified ap -
proved network personnel).
QUICkSHIFT GEARBOX (3/5)
If the engine is being overrevved or
underevved, the system will select
the optimal gear.
Changing mode
You can change mode at any time
by pushing the lever to the left. This
switches mode without changing gear.
Driving in manual mode
Using the selector lever
Pushing the lever repeatedly allows
you to change gears manually.
– to change up a gear: push the lever
forwards
– to change down a gear: push the
lever backwards
– to change to neutral: with the brake
pedal depressed (indicator light 4
will come on if you forget), push the
lever towards the right
Note: when the vehicle is stationary
(braking, red light, etc.), the system au-
tomatically switches to the most suita -
ble gear.
Accelerating and overtaking
To obtain maximum vehicle perform -
ance, in automatic or manual mode se-
lected, quickly depress the accelerator
pedal beyond the kickdown point.
This will activate the kickdown func -
tion allowing you to change down to the
most suitable gear.
Audible warning
If you leave the vehicle with the engine
running when in gear, an audible warn-
ing will sound. You must switch to neu-
tral before leaving the vehicle.

Parking
To park the vehicle with a gear en -
gaged (on a slope, for example): before
switching off the engine, check that a
gear other than N is displayed on the
instrument panel.

press the brake pedal. The vehicle will
then automatically change to neutral
(letter N on the display).

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.
