In freezing or snowy weather, ensure
they are not stuck to the windscreen
(including the central area located
behind the interior rear-view mirror)
and the rear screen before starting
the wipers (risk of motor overheat
-
ing).
Check the condition of the wiper
blades. You are responsible for their
service life:
– they must remain clean: clean
the blades, windscreen and
rear screen regularly with soapy
water;
– do not use them when the wind-
screen or rear screen are dry;
– free them from the windscreen or
rear screen when they have not
been used for a long time.
In all cases, replace them as soon
as they begin to lose efficiency: ap-
proximately once a year.
Before any action involving
the windscreen (washing
the vehicle, de-icing, clean -
ing the windscreen, etc.)
return stalk 1 to position B (park).
Risk of injury and/or damage.

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 special end of the exten -
sion piece supplied into the socket in -
tegrated into the radiator grille and the
other end into a 220v socket for at least
6 hours before starting.
Note: you may notice an increase in
fuel consumption with this type of fuel.
Do not mix even small
amounts of petrol (un -
leaded or E85) with diesel.
Do not use ethanol-based
fuel if your vehicle is not compatible
with this fuel.
fUEL TANK (2/3)
filling with fuel
Insert the nozzle fully before beginning
to fill the tank (risk of splashback).
Keep the nozzle in this position
throughout 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, as there must be suffi -
cient space in the fuel tank to allow for
expansion.
Make sure that no water enters the fuel
tank during filling. The cap and its sur-
round must remain clean.
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 contains a restrictor fitted with a
foolproof system which only allows
the nozzle for unleaded petrol to be
used (at the pump).persistent smell of
fuel
If you notice a persistent
smell of fuel you should:
– stop the vehicle if traffic condi -
tions allow and switch off the igni -
tion;
– switch on the hazard warning
lights and ask your passengers
to leave the vehicle and to keep
away from traffic;
– contact an authorised dealer.

The engine can then be restarted; if it
still does not run properly, allow it to run
at idle. If the engine does not start after
several attempts, contact an authorised
dealer.

The engine may be hot
during operations in close
proximity. In addition, the
engine cooling fan may
start at any moment.
Risk of injury.
Running out of fuel on diesel
versions
After a breakdown caused by com -
pletely running out of fuel, the system
must be reprimed before the engine is
restarted:
– Open the bonnet;
– operate priming bulb 2 several times
and stop when you can feel the pres-
sure.
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).
