Clock and exterior temperature
CLOCK AND EXTERIOR TEMpERATURE
Display A
With the ignition on, the time and,
depending on the vehicle, the exterior
temperature are displayed.
External temperature in -
dicator
As ice formation is related
to exposure, local air hu -
midity and temperature, the external
temperature alone is not sufficient to
detect ice.
If the electrical supply is cut (battery
disconnected, broken supply wire,
etc.), the clock will lose its time set-
ting.
The clock must be reset.
Resetting the clock
Vehicle with button 1:
– Press button 1 for approximately
three seconds;
– when the hour flashes, press
button 1 again to adjust it;
– wait approximately three seconds,
the minutes will flash, press button 1
to adjust them;
– wait approximately three seconds,
the minutes stop flashing, the time is
set.

Diesel engine speed
Diesel engines are fitted with injection
equipment which prevents the engine
speed being exceeded irrespective of
the gear selected.
If the message “ Check antipollution
system” is displayed on the instrument
panel accompanied by the
Ä and
© warning lights; consult an ap -
proved dealer straight away.
v ehicle with particle filter
When driving, depending on the fuel
grade used, it is possible that white
smoke may be emitted.
This is due to the exhaust particle filter
being cleaned automatically, and does
not affect the way the vehicle runs.
Running out of fuel
If the tank has been completely
drained, the system must be reprimed
after the tank is refilled: see information
on the “fuel tank” in Section 1 before re-
starting the engine.
Precautions to be taken in
winter
To avoid faults in icy weather:
– Ensure that the battery is always
fully charged;
– always keep the diesel tank rela -
tively full to avoid water vapour con-
densing in it and accumulating at the
bottom of the tank.
Do not park the vehicle or
run the engine in locations
where combustible sub -
stances or materials such
as grass or leaves can come into
contact with the hot exhaust system.

DRIvING coRRectIoN DevIce
Depending on the vehicle, this is com-
posed of:
– ABS (anti-lock braking system);
– electronic stability program (eSP)
with understeer control and trac -
tion control (ASR);
– emergency brake assist.
In an emergency, apply firm and
continuous pressure to the brake
pedal. There is no need to pump
it repeatedly. The ABS will modu -
late the force applied in the braking
system.
These functions are an ad-
ditional aid in the event of
critical driving conditions,
enabling the vehicle behav -
iour to be adapted to suit the driving
conditions.
However, the functions do not take
the place of the driver. they do
not increase the vehicle’s limits
and should not encourage you
to drive more quickly. Therefore,
they can under no circumstances
replace the vigilance or responsibil -
ity of the driver when manoeuvring
the vehicle (the driver must always
be ready for sudden incidents which
may occur when driving).
Yo u r b r a k i n g s y s t e m s
are partially operational.
However, it is dangerous
to brake suddenly and
it is essential to stop immediately,
as soon as traffic conditions allow.
Contact an approved dealer.
operating faults:
– If indicator lights
x and © light up on the instrument panel,
braking is still operational but
without ABS;
– If indicator lights
x, û,
© and D are displayed on
the instrument panel when driving,
this indicates there is a fault with
the braking system and ABS.
In both cases, consult an approved
Dealer.
ABS (Anti-lock Braking
System)
Under heavy braking, the ABS prevents
the wheels from locking, allowing the
stopping distance to be managed and
keeping control of the vehicle.
Under these circumstances, the vehi -
cle can be steered to avoid an obstacle
whilst braking. In addition, this system
can increase stopping distances, par -
ticularly on roads with low surface grip
(wet ground, etc.).
You will feel a pulsation through the
brake pedal each time the system is
activated. The ABS does not in any way
improve the vehicle’s physical perform-
ance relating to the road surface and
roadholding. It is still essential to follow
the rules of good driving practice (such
as driving at a safe distance from the
vehicle in front).

stored speed is 20 mph (30 km/h).

cRUISe coNtRol - SPeeD lIMIteR: limiter function (2/3)
Driving
When a limited speed has been stored
and this speed is not reached, driving is
similar to driving a vehicle without the
speed limiter function.
Once you have reached the stored
speed, no effort on the accelera -
tor pedal will allow you to exceed
the programmed speed except in an
emergency (refer to information on
“Exceeding the limit speed”).
v arying the limit speed
You can vary the limit speed by press-
ing switch 2 (+) repeatedly to increase
the speed or switch 3 (-) to decrease it.
exceeding the limit speed
It is possible to exceed the limit speed
at any moment. To do this: depress
the accelerator pedal firmly and fully
(beyond the kickdown point).
Whilst the speed is being exceeded,
the cruising speed displayed on the in-
strument panel flashes.
Then, release the accelerator pedal:
the speed limiter function will return as
soon as you reach a speed lower than
the stored speed. limited speed cannot be maintained
When driving down a steep gradient,
the system is unable to maintain the
limit speed: the memorised speed will
flash on the instrument panel informa
-
tion display to inform you of this situ -
ation.
The speed limiter function is
in no way linked to the brak-
ing system.

cRUISe coNtRol - SPeeD lIMIteR: cruise control function (3/4)
Adjusting the cruising speed
The cruising speed may be changed by
pressing the following repeatedly:
– switch 2 (+) to increase the speed,
– switch 3 (-) to decrease the speed.
The cruise control function
is in no way linked to the
braking system.
exceeding the cruising speed
The cruising speed may be exceeded
at any time by depressing the accelera -
tor pedal. While it is being exceeded,
the cruising speed flashes on the in -
strument panel.
Then, release the accelerator: after a
few seconds, the vehicle will automati-
cally return to its set cruising speed.
cruising speed cannot be
maintained
When driving down a steep gradient,
the system is unable to maintain the
cruising speed: the stored speed will
flash on the instrument panel informa -
tion display to inform you of this situ -
ation.

cRUISe coNtRol - SPeeD lIMIteR: cruise control function (4/4)
Putting the function on
standby
The cruise control function is sus -
pended when you press:
– press switch 4 (O);
– the brake pedal;
– depress the clutch pedal or shift into
neutral if the vehicle has a Quickshift
gearbox.
In all three cases, the cruising speed
is stored. The speed appears between
brackets on the display and the box
around the indicator light goes out to
confirm the function is on standby. Returning to the cruising speed
If a speed is stored, it can be recalled,
once you are sure that the road condi
-
tions are suitable (traffic, road surface,
weather conditions, etc.). With the ve -
hicle speed above 20 mph (30 km/h),
press switch 5 (R).
When recalling the stored speed, acti -
vation of the cruise control is confirmed
by the illumination of the strip around
the indicator light.
Note: if the speed previously stored is
much higher than the current speed,
the vehicle will accelerate more rapidly
to reach this threshold.
When the cruise control is sus -
pended, pressing switch 2 (+) or
3 (-) reactivates the cruise control
function without taking into account
the stored speed: it is the speed at
which the vehicle is moving that is
taken into account.
Switching off the function
The cruise control function is deacti -
vated if you press switch 1: in this case
a speed is no longer stored. The in -
strument panel indicator light goes out,
confirming that the function is stopped.
Putting the cruise control
on standby or switching it
off does not cause a rapid
reduction in speed: you
must brake by depressing the brake
pedal.
