Selecting reverse gear
v ehicle with manual gearbox: follow
the grid drawn on knob 1, and depend -
ing on the vehicle, lift ring 2 against the
gear lever knob to select reverse.
Handbrake
To release
Pull lever 4 upwards, press button 3
and then lower the lever to the floor.
To apply
Pull upwards, check that the vehicle is
properly immobilised.
When stationary and de -
pending on the gradient
and/or vehicle load, it may
be necessary to pull up
the handbrake at least two extra
notches and engage a gear (1
st or
reverse gear) for vehicles with a
manual gearbox or position P for
vehicles with an automatic trans -
mission.

When driving, ensure that
the handbrake has been
completely released (red
warning light off), risk of
overheating.
v ehicle with automatic gearbox: refer
to the information on the “Automatic
gearbox” in Section 2.
The reversing lights will come on as
soon as reverse gear is selected with
the ignition on.
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.

Operating faults
When indicator lights © and in cer-
tain cases
} light up on the instru-
ment panel accompanied by the mes -
sage “Check parking brake”, contact an
approved dealer urgently.
v ersions with an automatic
gearbox
For safety reasons, automatic release
is deactivated when the driver’s door
is open or not shut properly and the
engine is running (in order to prevent
the vehicle from moving without the
driver). The “Release manually parking
brake” message appears on the instru-
ment panel when the driver depresses
the accelerator.
Never leave your vehicle
without moving the selec -
tor lever to position P or N.
This is because when the
vehicle is stationary with the engine
running and a gear engaged, the
vehicle may begin to move if you
accelerate.
There is a risk of accidents.
It is therefore essential to
immobilise the vehicle by
engaging first gear (manual
gearbox) or position P (au -
tomatic transmission). If the slope
requires it, chock the vehicle.
If no lights or sounds are
apparent, this indicates
a fault in the instrument
panel. This indicates that it
is essential to stop immediately
(as soon as traffic conditions
allow). Ensure that the vehicle is
correctly immobilised and contact
an approved Dealer.
Indicator light } flashes, accom -
panied by indicator lights
® and

brake fault”: this indicates that it is es-
sential to stop immediately (as soon as
traffic conditions allow). Contact an ap-
proved Dealer.

Cruise control
Controls
1 Main “On/Off” switch.
2 Cruising speed activation, storage
and increase switch (+).
3 Cruising speed activation, storage
and recall (R).
4 Switch the function to standby (with
stored cruising speed) (O).
5 Cruising speed activation, storage
and decrease switch (–).
The cruise control function helps you to
maintain your driving speed at a speed
that you choose, called the
cruising
speed.
This cruising speed may be set at any
speed above 20 mph (30 km/h).
The cruise control function
is in no way linked to the
braking system.
This function is an addi -
tional driving aid.
However, the function does
not take the place of the
driver. Therefore, it can under no
circumstances replace the driver’s
responsibility to respect speed limits
and to be vigilant (the driver must
always be ready to brake). Cruise
control must not be used in heavy
traffic, on winding or slippery roads
(black ice, aquaplaning, gravel) and
during bad weather (fog, rain, side
winds etc.).
There is a risk of accidents.

The system is designed in such a
way that it is possible to detect a dif-
ference between the programmed
speed and the speed shown on the
instrument panel.

PARKING DISTANCE CONTROL (2/3)
Automatic activation/deactivation of
rear parking distance control
The system deactivates:
– when the electronic parking brake is
applied;
– when the vehicle speed is above ap-
proximately 7 mph (12 km/h);
– when the vehicle is in neutral or
when the gear lever has been shifted
to N or P for automatic gearboxes.
An impact to the under -
side of the vehicle while
manoeuvring (e.g.: strik -
ing 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 ap -
proved Dealer.
If there are obstacles located close to
both the front and rear of the vehicle,
only the closest of the two will be ac -
knowledged and the corresponding
front or rear beep sound will be emit -
ted. If obstacles are detected both to
the front and to the rear of the vehicle
at the same time, and they are both
within 30 centimetres from the vehicle,
the corresponding front and rear beeps
will be emitted alternately.
Rear parking distance control
Operation
When reversing, when any object is de-
tected approximately 1.50 metres from
the rear of the vehicle: a beep sounds.

AUTOMATIC OR CONTINUOUSLY vARIABLE TRANSMISSION (2/3)
Driving in manual mode
With the selector lever in position D,
move the lever to the left. Shifting the
lever repeatedly allows you to change
gears manually:
– backwards to shift down the gears;
– forwards to shift up the gears.
The gear selected is displayed on the
instrument panel.
Special cases
Under certain driving conditions (e.g.
engine protection, or electronic stability
control (ESC) operational etc.) the au -
tomatic system may change gear auto-
matically.
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.
Special circumstances
– If the bends and road surface do
not allow you to stay in automatic
mode (e.g. in the mountains), we
recommend that you change to
manual mode.
This will prevent repeated gear
changes when climbing and will
enable engine braking on long de -
scents.
– In very cold weather, to avoid stall-
ing the engine, start the engine and
wait a few seconds before moving
the lever from position P or N to po-
sition D or R.
– v ehicles not fitted with traction
control: to avoid wheelspin when
starting on a slippery or low grip sur-
face, change to manual mode and
select second gear before moving
off.
Parking the vehicle
When the vehicle is stopped, move the
lever to position P while keeping your
foot on the brake pedal: the gearbox is
in neutral and the drive wheels are me-
chanically locked by the driveshaft.
Depending on the vehicle, apply the
handbrake or check that the elec -
tronic parking brake is on (refer to
the information on the Parking brake in
Section 2).
In very cold weather, the system may prevent the gears from being shifted in
manual mode until the gearbox reaches the right temperature.
An impact to the under -
side of the vehicle while
manoeuvring (e.g.: strik -
ing 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 ap -
proved Dealer.
