Load limiter
Above a certain severity of impact, this 
mechanism is used to limit the force of 
the belt against the body so that it is at 
an acceptable level.
Air bags for driver and front 
passenger
Fitted to the driver and passenger side.
Depending  on  the  vehicle,  the  pres -
ence  of  this  equipment  is  indicated  by 
the word “air bag” on the steering wheel 
and  dashboard  (air  bag  zone  A )  and 
a  symbol  on  the  lower  section  of  the 
windscreen.
Each air bag system consists of:
–  an  air  bag  and  gas  generator  fitted 
on  the  steering  wheel  for  the  driver 
and  in  the  dashboard  for  the  front 
passenger;
–  an electronic unit for system monitor-
ing which controls the gas generator 
electrical trigger system;
–  one  single  warning  light 
å  on 
the instrument panel;
–  remote sensors.The  air  bag  system  uses 
pyrotechnic  principles.  This 
explains  why,  when  the  air 
bag  inflates,  it  will  gener -
ate heat, produce smoke (this does 
not mean that a fire is about to start) 
and make a noise upon detonation. 
In  a  situation  where  an  air  bag  is 
required,  it  will  inflate  immediately 
and this may cause some minor, su-
perficial grazing to the skin or other 
problems.

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-

This system monitors the tyre pressure. 
Information is displayed:
–  with  the  ignition  on,  when  scrolling 
through the trip computer and warn-
ing  system  information  by  pressing 
control  2   (refer  to  the  information 
on  the  “trip  computer  and  warning 
system” in Section 1);
–  or  if  there  is  a  fault  when  driving 
(refer to the following page to find out 
more about the warning messages).
Tyre pressure monitor
This  function  is  an  addi -
tional driving aid.
However,  the  function  does 
not  take  the  place  of  the 
driver.  It  cannot,  therefore,  under 
any  circumstances  replace  the  vig -
ilance  or  the  responsibility  of  the 
driver.
Check  the  tyre  pressures,  including 
the emergency spare wheel, once a 
month.
tyRe PReSSURe MoNItoR (1/3)
If the vehicle is equipped with the func-
tion, this system monitors the tyre pres-
sure.
operating principle
Each  wheel  (except  for  the  emergency 
spare  wheel)  has  a  sensor  in  the  infla-
tion  valve  which  periodically  measures 
the tyre pressure.
The  system  informs  the  driver  via  the 
trip  computer  and  warning  system  1 
that  the  tyres  are  sufficiently  inflated 
and  warns  if  they  are  underinflated  or 
leaking.
t he  tyre  pressure  can  be  adjusted 
when  cold  (refer  to  the  information  on 
“Tyre pressures”).
If  tyre  pressures  cannot  be  checked 
when  the  tyres  are  cold,  the  recom -
mended  pressures  must  be  increased 
by 0.2 to 0.3 bar (3 PSI).
Never deflate a hot tyre.1

Changing a wheel
The  system  may  take  sev -
eral  minutes  depending  on 
use  for  the  new  wheel  po -
sitions  and  pressures  to  be  recog -
nised; check the tyre pressures after 
all operations.

Interchangeability of wheelsIf you wish to swap the wheels around, 
please  consult  an  approved  dealer  to 
reinitialise the system.

the  message  “tyre  sensors  absent”  is 
displayed on the instrument panel.
Replacing wheels/tyres
This  system  requires  specific  equip -
ment (wheels, tyres, hubcaps, etc.).
Contact  an  approved  dealer  to  fit  new 
tyres and to find out about accessories 
compatible  with  the  system  and  avail -
able  from  manufacturer ’s  accessory 
outlets: the use of any other accessory 
could affect the correct operation of the

Because  the  valves  are  specially  de -

electronic stability control eSC
This  system  helps  you  to  keep  control 
of  the  vehicle  in  critical  driving  condi -
tions (avoiding an obstacle, loss of grip 
on a bend, etc.).
operating principle
A  sensor  in  the  steering  wheel  detects 
the direction selected by the driver.
Other  sensors  throughout  the  vehicle 
measure the actual direction.
The  system  compares  driver  input  to 
the  actual  trajectory  of  the  vehicle  and 
corrects  the  trajectory,  if  necessary,  by 
controlling the braking of certain wheels 
and/or  engine  power.  In  the  event  that 
the  system  is  engaged,  warning  light 
 flashes on the instrument panel. Understeer control
This system optimises the action of the 
ESC  in  the  case  of  pronounced  under
-
steer (loss of front axle road holding).
t raction control (aSR)
This  system  helps  to  limit  wheelspin  of 
the  drive  wheels  and  to  control  the  ve-
hicle when pulling away accelerating or 
decelerating.
operating principle
Using  the  wheel  sensors,  the  system 
measures  and  compares  the  speed  of 
the drive wheels at all times and slows 
down  their  over-rotation.  If  a  wheel  is 
starting  to  slip,  the  system  brakes  au -
tomatically  until  the  drive  supplied  be -
comes compatible with the level of grip 
under the wheel again.
The  system  also  adjusts  the  engine 
speed  to  the  grip  available  under  the 
wheels,  independently  of  the  pressure 
exerted on the accelerator pedal. operating faults
