When driving in fog or snow, or
when transporting objects which are
higher than the roof, the headlights
do not come on automatically.
Switching on the fog lights remains
the responsibility of the driver: the
indicator lights on the instrument
panel inform you whether the fog
lights are lit (indicator light on) or not
(indicator light not on).

fRear fog light
Turn centre ring 5 on the stalk
until the symbol faces mark 6, then re-
lease it.
Operation of the fog lights depends on
the exterior lighting selected, and an in-
dicator light will light up on the instru -
ment panel.
To avoid inconveniencing other road
users, remember to switch off the rear
fog light when it is no longer needed.
Lights-on reminder buzzer
If the lights are on after the engine is
switched off, a warning beep sounds
when the driver ’s door is opened to
warn you that the lights are still on.
switching off the lights
Turn the ring 5 again to align marker 6
with the symbol. The corresponding in-
dicator light on the instrument panel
goes out.
The fog lights switch off when the exte-
rior lights are switched off.

speed will slow to normal wiping speed.
As soon as the vehicle moves off again,
wiping will return to the speed originally
selected.
If stalk 1 is operated, it overrides and
cancels the automatic function.

light washer system may be deprimed.
Fill the windscreen washer fluid and
then activate the windscreen washer,
with the engine running , to reprime
the system.

Check the condition of the wiper blades. You are responsible for their service life:
– they must remain clean: clean the blades and the windscreen regularly with
soapy water;
– do not use them when the windscreen is dry;
– free them from the windscreen when they have not been used for a long time.
In all cases, replace them as soon as they begin to lose efficiency: approximately
once a year.

In freezing or snowy weather, ensure
they are not stuck to the windscreen
(including the central area located
behind the interior rear-view mirror)
before starting the wipers (risk of
motor overheating).

Fuel tank (filling with fuel)
capacity of the fuel tank: 66 litres ap-
proximately.
When the vehicle is unlocked, press in
cover C to open it.
Valve A is integrated into the filler pipe.
For details on filling the fuel tank, refer
to the information on “Filling with fuel”.

Never press valve A with
your fingers.
Do not wash the filler
area with a high-pressure
washer.

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.fuel grade
Use a high grade fuel that complies
with the legislation in force in each
country; it must conform to the speci -
fications given on label B on cover C .
Refer to the information on “Engine
specifications” in Section 6.
diesel versions
It is essential to use diesel fuel that
conforms to the information given on
label B inside cover C.
petrol versions
It is essential to use unleaded petrol.
The Octane Rating (RON) must con -
form to the information given on label B
on cover C. Refer to the information on
“Engine specifications” in Section 6.
B
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.
Do not add additive to the fuel –
otherwise you risk damaging the
engine.

No modifications what -
soever are permitted on
any part of the fuel supply
system (computers, wiring,
fuel circuit, injector, protection
covers, etc.) as this may be danger-
ous (such work must be undertaken
by qualified Network personnel).
fUEL TANK (2/2)
persistent smell of
fuel
If you notice a persistent
smell of fuel you should:
– stop the vehicle as soon as traf-
fic conditions allow and switch off
the ignition;
– switch on the hazard warning
lights and ask your passengers
to leave the vehicle and to keep
away from traffic;
– contact an approved Dealer.
filling with fuel
With the ignition off, insert the nozzle to
open valve A and insert it fully before
turning it on to fill the fuel tank (risk of
splashing).
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, 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 valve A and its
surround 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).
v ehicle fitted with the stop and
start function
To fill up with fuel, the engine must
be stopped (and not on standby):
stop the engine by pressing the
engine stop button 1 (please refer
to the information on “Starting and
Stopping the engine” in Section 2).
