tYre InFLA tIOn KIt (continued)
Depending on the vehicle, in the event
of a puncture, use the tyre inflation kit.– Retrieve compressor 4 and bottle 1
from rear storage compartment C (in
vehicles with a normal chassis) or D
(in vehicles with a long chassis);
– unroll inflation hose 8 and lead 9 lo-
cated under the compressor and in-
flation hose 10 . Attach the bottle to
its mounting 3 and screw inflation
hose 8 onto end piece 2.With the engine running and the
parking brake applied,
–
unscrew the valve cap of the wheel
concerned and screw the inflation
hose 10 onto the valve;
– connect end piece 9 to one of the ve-
hicle’s accessories sockets (refer to
the information on the “Accessories
socket” in Section 3) then press
switch 7 to inflate the tyre to the rec-
ommended pressure (refer to the
label located on the edge of the driv-
er’s door);
– After a maximum of 5 minutes, stop
inflating and read the pressure on
pressure gauge 6 . To adjust the
pressure if necessary: continue in -
flating to increase the pressure or
press button 5 to decrease it.
If a minimum pressure of 1.8 bar is
not reached after 15 minutes, repair
is not possible; do not drive the ve-
hicle but contact an approved dealer.
Before using this kit, park
the vehicle at a sufficient
distance from traffic, switch
on the hazard warning
lights, apply the handbrake, ask all
passengers to leave the vehicle and
keep them away from traffic.

Battery
BA tter Y: troubleshooting
Handle the battery with care
as it contains sulphuric acid,
which must not come into
contact with eyes or skin. If
it does, wash the affected area with
plenty of cold water. If necessary,
consult a doctor.
Ensure that naked flames, red hot
objects and sparks do not come into
contact with the battery as there is a
risk of explosion.
The engine may be hot when car -
rying out operations in close prox -
imity. In addition, the engine cooling
fan can come on at any moment.
Risk of injury.
t o avoid all risk of sparks:
– Ensure that any electrical consumers
(courtesy lights, etc.) are switched
off before disconnecting or recon -
necting the battery.
– When charging, stop the charger
before connecting or disconnecting
the battery.
– Do not place metal objects on the
battery to avoid creating a short cir-
cuit between the terminals.
– Always wait at least one minute after
the engine has been switched off
before disconnecting a battery.
– Make sure that you reconnect the
battery terminals after refitting.

BAtter Y: troubleshooting (continued)
connecting a battery charger
t he battery charger must be com -
patible with a battery with a nominal
voltage of 12 volts.
It is essential to disconnect both bat -
tery leads from the terminals (engine
stopped) starting with the negative
terminal.
Do not disconnect the battery when the
engine is running. Follow the instruc-
tions given by the manufacturer of
the battery charger you are using.
Only a fully charged and well-main -
tained battery will have a long and
useful life and enable you to start the
vehicle’s engine normally.
The battery must be kept clean and dry.
Have the battery’s charge status
checked regularly:
– Especially if you use your vehicle for
short journeys or for frequent driving
in town. –
When the exterior temperature drops
(in winter), the charge decreases.
In winter, only use electrical equip -
ment which is really necessary.
– Finally, you should understand that
the charge decreases naturally as a
result of certain permanent electrical
consumers such as the clock, after-
sales accessories, etc.
When a large number of accessories
are fitted to the vehicle, have them con-
nected to the + after ignition feed. In
this case, it is advisable to have your
vehicle fitted with a battery which has
an increased nominal capacity. Contact
an approved dealer. If your vehicle is to be left stationary
for a relatively long time, disconnect
the battery or have it recharged regu
-
larly, particularly during cold weather.
The equipment with a memory, radio
etc. will then have to be reprogrammed.
The battery must be stored in a cool dry
place, protected from frost.
Special procedures may be
required to charge some
batteries. Contact your ap -
proved dealer.
Avoid all risk of sparks which may
cause an immediate explosion, and
charge the battery in a well-venti -
lated area. Risk of serious injury.

Starting the vehicle using the
battery from another vehicle
If you have to use the battery from an-
other vehicle to start, obtain suitable
jump leads (with a large cross section)
from an approved dealer or, if you al -
ready have jump leads, ensure that
they are in perfect condition.
the two batteries must have an iden-
tical nominal voltage of 12 volts. The
battery supplying the current should
have a capacity (amp-hours, Ah) which
is at least the same as that of the dis-
charged battery.
Ensure that there is no risk of contact
between the two vehicles (risk of short
circuiting when the positive terminals
are connected) and that the discharged
battery is properly connected. Switch
off your vehicle ignition.
Start the engine of the vehicle supply -
ing the current and run it at an interme-
diate engine speed. Connect positive (+) lead A to (+) termi-
nal 1 of the discharged battery, then to
(+) terminal
2 of the battery supplying
the current.
Connect negative (–) lead B to (–) ter-
minal 3 of the battery supplying the cur-
rent and then to (–) terminal 4 of the
discharged battery.
Check that there is no contact between
leads A and B and that the positive (+)
lead A is not touching any metal parts
on the vehicle supplying the current.
Start the engine as you would normally.
As soon as it is running, disconnect
leads A and B in the reverse order (4-
3-2-1).

Check that there is no con-
tact between leads A and B
and that the positive lead A
is not touching any metal
parts on the vehicle supplying the
current.

vehicle.

towing a vehicle with an
automatic transmission:
special features
With the engine switched off: the
gearbox is no longer lubricated. It is
preferable to tow this type of vehicle on
a trailer or tow it with the front wheels
off the ground.
u nder exceptional circumstances ,
you may tow the vehicle with all four
wheels on the ground, only going for -
ward, with the gear lever in the n posi-
tion, and for a distance not exceeding
30 miles (50 km).
W h e n t h e e n g i n e i s

– Use a rigid towing bar.
If a rope or cable is used
(where the law allows this),
the vehicle being towed
must be able to brake.
– A vehicle must not be towed if it is
not fit to be driven.
– Avoid accelerating or braking
suddenly when towing, as this
may result in damage being
caused to the vehicle.
– When towing a vehicle, it is ad -
visable not to exceed 15 mph
(25 km/h).
If the lever is stuck in P,
even though you are de -
pressing the brake pedal,
the lever can be released
manually.
To do this, unclip the cover at the
base of the lever.
Press simultaneously on button 2
and on the unlocking button on
lever 1.
