CRUISE CONTROl/SPEED lIMITER: speed limiter function (3/3)
Putting the function on
standby
The speed limiter function is sus -
pended when you press switch 4 (O).
In this case, the limit speed remains
stored and the message “stored” ac -
companied by this speed appears on
the instrument panel.
Recalling the limit speed
If a speed has been stored, it can be re-
called by pressing switch 5 (R).
When the speed limiter is sus -
pended, pressing button 2 (+) or
switch 3 (-) reactivates the func -
tion without taking into account
the stored speed: it is the speed at
which the vehicle is moving that is
taken into account.
Switching off the function
The speed limiter function is interrupted
when you press switch 1. In this case,
the speed is no longer stored. The in -
strument panel orange indicator light
 goes out to confirm that the func -
tion is deactivated.

CRUISE CONTROl/SPEED lIMITER: cruise control function (3/4)
Exceeding the cruising speed
The cruising speed may be exceeded
at any time by depressing the accelera -
tor pedal. While it is being exceeded,
the cruising speed flashes on the in -
strument panel.
Then, release the accelerator: after a
few seconds, the vehicle will automati-
cally return to its set cruising speed.
Cruising speed cannot be
maintained
When driving down a steep gradient,
the system is unable to maintain the
cruising speed: the stored speed will
flash on the instrument panel informa -
tion display to inform you of this situ -
ation.
Adjusting the cruising speed
The cruising speed may be changed by
pressing the following repeatedly:
– switch 2 (+) to increase the speed,
– switch 3 (-) to decrease the speed.
The cruise control function
is in no way linked to the
braking system.

Switching off the function
The cruise control function is deacti -
vated if you press switch 1: in this case
a speed is no longer stored.
The green
 and  indicator lights
on the instrument panel 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 button 5 (R),
on condition that you are driving faster
than 20 mph (30 km/h) and that you are
sure that the road conditions are suit -
able (traffic, road surface condition,
weather conditions, etc.).
Note: if the speed previously stored is
much higher than the current speed,
the vehicle will accelerate more rapidly
to reach this threshold.
When the speed limiter is sus -
pended, pressing buttons 2 (+) or
3 (-) reactivates the cruise control
function without taking into account
the stored speed: it is the speed at
which the vehicle is moving that is
taken into account.
Putting the function on
standby
The function is set to standby if you:
– the brake pedal;
– depress the clutch pedal or shift into
neutral if the vehicle has an auto -
matic gearbox;
– press switch 4 (O).
In all three cases, the cruising speed is
stored.
Standby is confirmed when the green
 indicator light goes out and the
“stored” message appears on the in -
strument panel.
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 the gear lever in position P or N,
switch on the ignition.
With your foot on the brake pedal
(warning light 3 goes out), shift from
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.

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.
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.

Operating faults
– When driving, if the message
“Check gearbox” and the
©
warning light appear on the instru -
ment panel, this indicates a fault.
Contact your approved Dealer as
soon as possible.
– When driving, if the message
“Gearbox overheating” appears on
the instrument panel, drive at a mod-
erate speed and avoid leaving the
lever in the D (or R) position, where
traffic conditions allow: always return
to the N position when you stop.
Contact your approved Dealer as
soon as possible.
– If a vehicle with an automatic
gearbox breaks down, refer to the
information on “Towing” in Section 5.
AUTOMATIC GEARbOx (2/3)
Driving in manual mode
With the selector lever 1 in position D,
move the lever to the left. Shifting the
lever repeatedly allows you to change
gears manually:
– To move down through the gears,
push the lever backwards;
– To move up through the gears, push
the lever forwards.
The gear selected is displayed on the
instrument panel.
Special cases
In certain driving conditions (eg.:
engine protection, operation of the
Electronic Stability Program) the auto -
mated system may change the gear au-
tomatically.
Likewise, to prevent incorrect manoeu -
vres, a gear change may be refused by
the automatic system: in this case the
gear display flashes for a few seconds
as a warning.

Economical driving
When driving, leave the lever in posi -
tion D, keeping the accelerator pedal
lightly depressed to ensure automatic
gear changes at comparatively low
engine speeds.
An impact to the underside of the vehicle (e.g.: striking 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 approved
dealer.

Engine oil level:
general description
Minimum oil level display A
If the level is above the minimum
level
The “oil level” message appears on the
display, accompanied by squares indi -
cating the level. These squares disap -
pear as the level drops and they are re-
placed by dashes.
To advance to trip computer reading,
press button 1 or 2 again. If the level is at the minimum
The message “adjust oil level” or “oil”
and the © warning light are dis
-
played on the instrument panel.
It is vital to top up the oil as soon as
possible.
The display only warns the
driver if the oil level is at the
minimum level. It does not
inform the driver that the oil
level has exceeded the maximum
level as this can only be measured
using a dipstick.
It is normal for an engine to use oil for
lubrication and cooling of moving parts
and it is normal to top up the level be-
tween oil changes.
However, contact an approved Dealer if
more than 0.5 litres is being consumed
every 600 miles (1,000 km) after the
running in period.
o il change frequency: check the oil
level from time to time and certainly
before any long journey to avoid the
risk of damaging your engine.
Reading the oil level
The oil level should be read with the ve-
hicle on level ground, after the engine
has been switched off for some time.
t he dipstick must be used to read
the exact oil level and make sure
that the maximum level has not been
exceeded (risk of engine damage).
Refer to the following pages.
The instrument panel display only
alerts the driver when the oil level is at
its minimum.

It does not need to be serviced; never
open cover 1 on the battery.
Battery
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.
BA tteR y (1/2)
Depending on the vehicle, a system
continuously checks the battery charge
status.
When the ignition is off, some consum-
ers may also be switched off (dipped
beam headlights, radio, ventilation,
etc.). On the instrument panel, the
message “battery saving mode” or “batt
save” appears when they are switched
off . When the level is extremely low,
the message “low battery, start engine”
is displayed.
The charge status of the battery can
decrease, especially if you use your ve-
hicle:
– for short journeys;
– for driving in town;
– when the temperature drops, etc.;
– with the vehicle stopped and the
engine off.
The engine may be hot
during operations in close
proximity. In addition, the
engine cooling fan may
start at any moment.
Risk of injury.
