These appear with the © warning light and mean that you should drive very carefully to an approv\
ed Dealer as
soon as possible. If you fail to follow this recommendation, you risk da\
maging your vehicle.

l seconds and are stored in the computer log. The
© warning light stays on. Examples of operating fault messages are given \
on the following pages .

With the ignition on, the time and, de-
pending on the vehicle, exterior tem-
perature are displayed.
Setting the time
Resetting the clock A
(depending on vehicle)
Display the “Clock” page on the instru-
ment panel by pressing one of the but-
tons on stalk 1.
CLOCK AND EXTERIOR TEMPERATURE
Exterior temperature
indicator
As ice formation is related
to climatic exposure, local
air humidity and temperature, the
external temperature alone is not
sufficient to detect ice.
If the electrical supply is cut (battery
disconnected, broken supply wire,
etc.), the clock will lose its time set-
ting. The time must then be set.

Operation
Keeping your foot on the brake pedal
and with the selector lever 1 in position
P, turn the ignition.
Start the motor.
To move out of position P, you must de-
press the brake pedal before pressing
unlocking button 2.
With your foot on the brake pedal
(warning light
c in display A goes

cle is stopped, with your foot on the
brake and the accelerator pedal re-
leased.

Driving
Put lever 1 in position D.
Hill start
For hill starts, especially after a maxi-
mum traction battery charge and for the
first few miles, we recommend using
the handbrake.
While driving, press the accelerator
pedal to achieve the desired speed.

the charging cord is unplugged from
the vehicle.

2.7
ENVIRONMENT
Emissions
Your vehicle has been designed to
emit fewer greenhouse gases (CO2)
while in use, and therefore to consume
less fuel (eg. 140 g/km, equivalent to
5.3 l/100 km for a diesel vehicle).
Our vehicles are also equipped with a
particle filter system including a cata-
lytic converter, an oxygen sensor and
an active carbon filter (the latter pre-
vents vapour from the fuel tank being
released into the open air).
For certain diesel vehicles, this system
also has a particle filter to reduce the
volume of soot particles emitted.
Please make your own
contribution towards
protecting the environment
too
– Worn parts replaced in the course of routine vehicle maintenance (vehi-
cle battery, oil filter, air filter, batter-
ies, etc.) and oil containers (empty or
filled with used oil) must be disposed
of through specialist organisations. – At the end of the vehicle’s service
life, it should be sent to approved
centres to ensure that it is recycled.
– In all cases, comply with local legis- lation.
Recycling
Your vehicle is 85% recyclable and
95% recoverable.
To achieve these objectives, many of
the vehicle components have been de-
signed to enable them to be recycled.
The materials and structures have
been carefully designed to allow these
components to be easily removed and
reprocessed by specialist companies.
In order to preserve raw material re-
sources, this vehicle incorporates nu-
merous parts made from recycled plas-
tics or renewable materials (vegetable
or animal-derived materials such as
cotton or wool).
Your vehicle has been designed with
respect for the environment in mind for
its entire service life: during production,
use and at the end of its life.
This commitment is illustrated by the of
the manufacturer eco² signature.Manufacture
Your vehicle has been manufactured at
a factory which complies with a policy
to reduce the environmental impact
on the surrounding areas (reduction of
water and energy consumption, visual
and noise pollution, atmospheric emis-
sions and waste water; sorting and re-
using waste).

2.8
CHARGE METER
The traction battery supplies the elec-
trical energy required for the motor to
move the vehicle.
When you lift your foot off the accelera-
tor pedal, the motor generates electri-
cal current during deceleration, and this
energy is used to recharge the traction
battery.
“Energy recovery” usage
zone A
Indicates that the vehicle is generating
energy and recharging the battery.Energy recovery features
The motor generates a more significant
engine brake than a conventional vehi-
cle.
After a maximum charge for the traction
battery and during the first few miles
when driving the vehicle, the engine
brake is temporarily reduced. Please
adapt your driving style accordingly.
“Neutral” position
B
Indicates nil consumption.
“Recommended
consumption” usage zone C
Indicates “economical” energy con-
sumption
“Consumption not
recommended” usage zone D
Indicates significant energy consump-
tion.

AIR CONDITIONING/HEATING: programming (1/2)
Adjusting the programming
This function enables the electric net-
work (and the not the traction battery)
to be used under certain conditions, in
order to obtain a comfortable tempera-
ture prior to using the vehicle.
It triggers the heating in cold weather
and the fan in warm weather.
1
Operating conditions
– the ignition must be switched off;
– the battery charging must be finished for the function to be triggered;
– the vehicle has to be plugged into the mains;
and
– control 1 must be position
.
2
In cold weather (< 0°C), you are rec-
ommended to position control 2 in
air recirculation position. This en-
ables greater efficiency and lower
energy consumption in the passen-
ger compartment ambient tempera-
ture.

Removable ashtray 1
This is a removable ashtray which can
be placed in the cup holders.
Lift the cover to open.
To empty it, pull the assembly. The ash-
tray will come out of its housing.

Accessories sockets
You may use the cigarette lighter
recess 2 or one of sockets 3 (depend-
ing on the vehicle). They are designed
for connecting accessories with a maxi-
mum power rating of 120 Watts (volt-
age: 12V) which have been approved
by our Technical Department.
Depending on the 12V battery charge,
the accessories socket may stop work-
ing.
Cigarette lighter 2
With the ignition on, press it in. It will
spring back with a click when it is ready.
Pull it out to use.
After use, replace it without pushing it
all the way in.
