Operating faults
The steering may become stiff when
driving or when the steering wheel is
turned repeatedly. This is due to the
power assistance overheating. In this
case, it must be allowed to cool down.power-assisted steering
Variable power-assisted steering
The variable power-assisted steering
system is equipped with an electronic
control system which alters the level of
assistance to suit the vehicle speed.
Steering is made easier during parking
manoeuvres (for added comfort) whilst
the force needed to steer increases
progressively as the speed rises (for
enhanced safety at high speeds).
Steering wheel
Power-assisted steering
STEERING WHEEL/pOWER-ASSISTED STEERING
Never leave the steering wheel at
full lock while stationary.
Never switch off the igni -
tion when travelling down -
hill, and avoid doing so in
normal driving (assistance
is not provided).
With the engine switched off, or if
there is a system fault, it is still pos-
sible to turn the steering wheel. The
force required will be greater.
Adjusting the steering wheel
Depending on the vehicle, the steering
wheel position is adjustable.
Hold the steering wheel with one hand,
lift lever 1 and position the steering
wheel as desired. Lower the lever to
lock the steering wheel.
Make sure that the steering wheel is
correctly locked.
For safety reasons, only
adjust the steering wheel
when the vehicle is station-
ary.

Special note
When driving every time the vehi -
cle stops, the wipers slow down, e.g.
fast wiping speed is reduced to normal
wiping speed.
As soon as the vehicle moves off,
wiping will return to the speed originally
selected.
Any action on stalk 1 overrides and
cancels automatic operation.

When this position is selected, the
system detects the presence of
water on the windscreen and triggers
wiping at a suitable wiping speed. It
is possible to change the time be -
tween sweeps by turning ring 2.

With the vehicle stationary, if for
any reason the wipers cannot move
(e.g. stuck to windscreen by ice),
the system will automatically cut off
the power supply to the wipers.

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 wind-
screen 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: ap-
proximately once a year.
In snowy or icy conditions, make
sure the wiper blades are not stuck
by ice.
Keep an eye on the condition of the
blades. Replace the wiper blades as
soon as they begin to lose efficiency
(approximately once a year).

Fuel tank (filling with fuel)
FUEL TANK (1/2)
Capacity of the fuel tank: 40 litres ap-
proximately.
To open the compartment, place your
finger into recess 2, then pull the cover.
For details on filling the fuel tank, refer
to the information on “Filling with fuel”
on the next page.
Cap holder 1 is provided on the fuel
filler flap for holding the cap when the
tank is being filled.

Fuel grade
Use a high grade fuel with the appro-
priate octane rating as defined by the
particular standards in force in your
country.
It is essential to use unleaded petrol.
The octane rating (RON) must con -
form with the specifications given on
the label inside fuel filler flap A . Refer
to the information on “Engine specifica-
tions” in Section 6.
Fuel filler cap: this is spe-
cific to the vehicle type. If
you have to replace it, make
sure the new cap is of the
same type. Contact an approved
Dealer.
Never place the cap near a source
of heat or flame.
Do not wash the filler area with a
high-pressure washer.
Filling with fuel
Using leaded petrol will damage the
antipollution system and may lead to a
loss of warranty.
To ensure the fuel tank is not filled
with leaded petrol, the fuel tank filler
neck contains a restrictor fitted with a
valve which only allows the nozzle
for unleaded petrol to be used (at the
pump).
– Insert the nozzle as far as it will go
so that the valve is opened.
– Keep the nozzle in this position
throughout the entire filling opera -
tion.
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.

After filling, check that the cap and
cover are closed.

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 the traffic;
– contact an approved dealer.
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.
