TYRES (2/3)
Tyre pressures
Adhere to the tyre pressures (including
the emergency spare wheel). The tyre
pressures should be checked at least
once a month and additionally before
any long journey (refer to the label af -
fixed to the edge of the driver’s door).
Incorrect tyre pressures
lead to abnormal tyre wear
and unusually hot running.
These are factors which
may seriously affect safety and lead
to:
– poor roadholding;
– risk of blowouts or throwing a
tread.
The tyre pressure depends on the
load and speed of use; adjust the
pressures according to the condi -
tions of use (refer to the information
on “Tyre pressures” in Section 4).
Pressures should be checked when the
tyres are cold; ignore higher pressures
which may be reached in hot weather
or following a fast journey.
If tyre pressures cannot be checked
when the tyres are cold, assume an in-
crease of 0.2 to 0.3 bar.
Never deflate a hot tyre.
Special note
Depending on the vehicle, there may
be an adapter which needs to be posi-
tioned on the valve before air is added.
For safety reasons, this op-
eration must be carried out
by a specialist.
Fitting different tyres may
change your vehicle as follows:
– it may mean that your vehicle no
longer conforms to current regu-
lations;
– It may change the way it handles
when cornering;
– It may cause the steering to be
heavy;
– it may affect the use of snow
chains.
Important: a missing or
loose valve cap may com -
promise the tyre seal and
cause a loss of pressure.
Always use valve caps which are
identical to the originals.

Towing procedureThe steering wheel must be un -
locked and the ignition key must be
in position M (ignition on) to pro -
vide stop lights and hazard warning
lights on the towed vehicle. Always
switch on the lights when driving at
night. Remove any trailer.
It is also essential to observe the towing
regulations imposed by current legisla -
tion in each country, and not to exceed
the towable weight for your vehicle.
Consult an approved dealer.
Only use:– at the front, towing hitch 1 (from
the luggage compartment) and
towing point 3.
– At the rear, towing point 4.
These towing points may only be used
for pulling the vehicle, never for lifting it
either directly or indirectly.
Do not remove the key from
the ignition when the vehi -
cle is being towed.
– Use a rigid towing bar.
If a rope or cable is used
(where the law allows this),
the vehicle being towed
must be able to brake.
– A vehicle must not be towed if it is
not fit to be driven.
– Avoid accelerating or braking
suddenly when towing, as this
may result in damage being
caused to the vehicle.
– When towing a vehicle, it is ad -
visable not to exceed 15 mph
(25 km/h).

OPERATING FAULTS (3/5)
On the road POSSIBLE CAUSES WHAT TO DO
Abnormal white smoke from the ex-
haust Mechanical fault: damaged cylinder
head gasket.
or Stop the engine.
Contact an approved dealer.
This is not necessarily a fault.
Smoke may be caused by
regeneration of the particle filter. Refer to the information on “Special
features of diesel versions” in Section 2.
The power-assisted steering be -
comes heavy. Belt broken.
Have the belt replaced.
No power-assisted steering oil For maintenance operations on the power-
assisted steering, contact an approved
dealer.
Radiator: If there is a significant lack of coolant, remember that it must never be topped up using cold coolant while
the engine is very warm. After any procedure on the vehicle which has involved even partial draining of the cooling
system, it must be refilled with a new mixture prepared in the correct proportions. Reminder: only products approved
by the Technical Department may be used for this purpose.
