“See-me-home lighting”
function
(depending on vehicle)
This function (useful, for example, when
opening a gate, garage, etc.) enables
you to switch the dipped headlights on
momentarily.
With the ignition off and the headlights
off, pull stalk 1 towards you: the dipped
beam headlights come on for approxi -
mately sixty seconds.
This action may be carried out no more
than four times for a maximum lighting
period of four minutes.
To switch off the lights before they
switch off automatically, turn the end of
stalk 1 then bring it back to position 0,
or switch on the ignition.

eSwitching off the lights

There are two possibilities:
– manually, move stalk 1 to its original
position;
– automatically, the lights are switched
off when the engine is stopped, the
driver’s door is opened or, depend -
ing on the vehicle, when the vehicle
is locked. In this case, the next time
the engine is started the lights will be
switched back on according to the
position of the ring 2.

No modifications what -
soever are permitted on
any part of the fuel supply
system (electronic unit,
wiring, fuel circuit, injector, protec -
tive covers, etc.) as this may be
dangerous (unless undertaken by
qualified Network personnel).
Filling with fuel
With the ignition off, insert the nozzle
so that the valve opens and then fully
insert it before beginning to fill the tank
(risk of splashback).
Keep the nozzle in this position through -
out the entire filling operation.
When the pump cuts out automatically
at the end of the filling procedure, a
maximum of two further filling attempts
may be made so as to leave sufficient
room for expansion.
petrol versions
Using leaded petrol will damage the
antipollution system and may lead to a
loss of warranty.
To ensure that the fuel tank is not filled
with leaded petrol, the fuel tank filler
neck consists of a restrictor fitted with
a foolproof system which only allows
a nozzle for unleaded petrol to be
used (at the pump).
FUeL TANK (2/3)
persistent smell of
fuel
If you notice a persistent
smell of fuel you should:
– stop the vehicle when traffic con-
ditions allow it and switch off the
ignition;
– switch on the hazard warning
lights and ask your passengers
to leave the vehicle and to keep
away from the traffic;
– contact an approved Dealer.
petrol versions
It is essential to use unleaded petrol.
The octane rating (RON) should match
the information given on the label A lo-
cated inside the fuel filler flap. Please
refer to the information on “Engine
specifications” in Section 6.
v ehicles running on ethanol-based
fuel
It is essential to use unleaded petrol or
fuel containing a maximum of 85% eth-
anol (E85).
In very cold conditions, it may be very
difficult or even impossible to start the
engine. To avoid this problem, use un-
leaded petrol or, on equipped vehicles,
use the heater integrated in the engine:
connect the correct end of the exten -
sion piece supplied into the socket in -
tegrated into the radiator grille and the
other end into a 220 v socket for at
least 6 hours before starting.
NB: you may notice an increase in fuel
consumption with this type of fuel.

the vehicle has stopped completely.
Once the engine has stopped, the
brake servo, power-assisted steer -
ing, etc., and the passive safety de-
vices such as the airbags and pre -
tensioners will no longer operate.
