To fold down the rear seatsThe seats can be folded down in order
to transport large objects:
From the front, lower the headrest.
From the rear, lift handle 2 to fold down
the seatback, lower bar 1 of the seat
concerned and move it forwards fully.
Lift the controls 3 located either side
of the seat and lift the seat against the
front seats. Tension wheels
4 located under each
of the rear seats are used to keep the
seats folded down.
Unhook the tension wheel from ring 5
and hook it to the rods on the headrest
in front.
To return the seats
Unhook retainer 4 from the headrest
rods, and stow it by hooking it into
ring 5. Lower the seat until it is approxi -
mately 10 cm from the floor then re -
lease it. The seat positions itself under
its own weight. Raise the seatback and
ensure the seat is correctly locked.
When moving the rear
seats, ensure that nothing
obstructs the anchorage
points (passenger’s arm or
leg, a pet, gravel, cloth, toys, etc.).
When tilting the seats, be
careful not to lock the seat
belts. If this happens, tilt
the seat again. Pull the belt
strap, reposition the seat and re -
lease the strap.
For safety reasons, carry
out any adjustments when
the vehicle is not being
driven.
When refitting the seat -
back , make sure it is cor -
rectly locked in place.
If seat covers are fitted ,
make sure these do not prevent the
seatback latch from locking in.

Bodywork maintenance
BODyWORk MAINTENANCE (1/2)
y ou should
Wash your car frequently, with the
engine off, with cleaning products rec-
ommended by the manufacturer (never
use abrasive products). Rinse thor -
oughly beforehand with a jet:
– spots of tree resin and industrial
grime;
– mud in the wheel arches and under -
neath the body which forms damp
patches;
– bird droppings , which cause a
chemical reaction with the paint that
rapidly discolours paintwork and
may even cause the paint to peel
off;
wash the vehicle immediately to
remove these marks since it is im -
possible to remove them by polish -
ing;
– salt, particularly in the wheel arches
and underneath the body after driv -
ing in areas where the roads have
been gritted.
Remove any plant matter (resin, leaves,
etc.) from the vehicle regularly.
What you should not doDo not degrease or clean mechani -
cal components (e.g. the engine com -
partment), underneath the body, parts
with hinges (e.g. inside the doors) and
painted plastic external fittings (e.g.
bumpers) using high-pressure clean -
ing equipment or by spraying on prod-
ucts not approved by our Technical
Department. Doing this could give rise
to corrosion or operational faults.
Wash the vehicle in bright sunlight or
freezing temperatures.
Do not scrape off mud or dirt without
pre-wetting.
Allow dirt to accumulate on the exterior.
Allow rust to form following minor im -
pacts.
Do not use solvents not approved by
our Technical Department to remove
stains as this could damage the paint-
work.
Do not drive in snow or muddy condi -
tions without washing the vehicle, par-
ticularly under the wheel arches and
body.
A well-maintained vehicle will last
longer. It is therefore recommended to
maintain the exterior of the vehicle reg-
ularly.
Your vehicle has been treated with very
effective anti-corrosion products. It is
nevertheless subject to various outside
influences.
Corrosive agents in the atmosphere
–
atmospheric pollution (built-up and
industrial areas),
– saline atmospheres (near the sea,
particularly in hot weather),
– seasonal and damp weather condi -
tions (e.g. road salt in winter, water
from road cleaners, etc.).
Minor impacts
Abrasive action
Dust and sand in the air, mud, road grit
thrown up by other vehicles, etc.
You should take a number of minor pre-
cautions in order to safeguard your ve-
hicle against such risks.

Puncture
In the event of a puncture,
depending on the vehicle,
you will have:
An emergency spare wheel or tyre in -
flation kit (refer to the information on the
following pages).
emergency spare wheel 2
This is located in the luggage compart-
ment. To access it:
– open the tailgate;
– lift the luggage compartment carpet 1

– remove the jack from its storage
space A;
– unscrew the central mounting 4;
– remove the tool kit 3 lifting it from
both sides;
– remove emergency spare wheel 2.
If the emergency spare
wheel has been stored
for several years, have it
checked by your Dealer to
ensure that it is safe to use.
Vehicles fitted with an
emergency spare wheel
smaller than the four
other wheels:
– Never fit more than one emer -
gency spare wheel to the same
vehicle.
– Replace the emergency spare
wheel as soon as possible with a
wheel with the same dimensions
as the original.
– When this is fitted to the vehicle,
which must only be a temporary
measure, the driving speed must
not exceed the speed indicated
on the label on the wheel.
– Fitting an emergency spare
wheel may alter the way the ve -
hicle usually runs. Avoid sudden
acceleration or deceleration and
reduce your speed when corner-
ing.
– If you need to use snow chains,
fit the emergency spare wheel to
the rear axle and check the tyre
pressure.

Tyre inflation kit
tYre PreSSure KIt (1/3)
The kit is only approved for
inflating the tyres of the ve-
hicle originally equipped
with the kit.
It must never be used to inflate
the tyres of another vehicle, or any
other inflatable object (rubber ring,
rubber boat, etc.).
Avoid spillage on skin when han -
dling the repair liquid bottle. If drop-
lets do leak out, rinse them off with
plenty of water.
Keep the repair kit away from chil -
dren.
Do not dispose of the empty bottle
in the countryside. Return it to your
approved dealer or to a recycling or-
ganisation.
The bottle has a limited service
life which is indicated on its label.
Check the expiry date.
Contact an approved dealer to re -
place the inflation tube and repair
product bottle.
A
B
The kit repairs tyres when
tread A has been dam -
aged by objects smaller
than 4 mm. It cannot repair
all types of puncture, such as cuts
larger than 4 mm, or cuts in tyre
sidewall B.
Ensure also that the wheel rim is in
good condition.
Do not pull out the foreign body
causing the puncture if it is still in
the tyre.
Do not attempt to use the
inflation kit if the tyre has
been damaged as a result
of driving with a puncture.
You should therefore carefully check
the condition of the tyre sidewalls
before any operation.
Driving with underinflated, flat or
punctured tyres can be dangerous
and may make the tyre impossible
to repair.
this repair is temporary
A tyre which has been punctured
should always be inspected (and re-
paired, where possible) as soon as
possible by a specialist.
When taking a tyre which has been
repaired using this kit to be replaced,
you must inform the specialist.
When driving, vibration may be felt
due to the presence of the repair
product injected into the tyre.
