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
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 FEA tURES oF PEtRoL VERSIoNS
The following operating conditions:
– driving for long periods when the low
fuel level warning light is lit;
– using leaded petrol;
– using fuel or lubrication additives
which are not approved.
Or operating faults such as:
– faulty ignition system, running out of
fuel or disconnected spark plugs re-
sulting in the engine misfiring or cut-
ting out when driving;
– loss of power,
as they may cause the catalytic con -
verter to overheat and thus reduce its
efficiency, or damage it irreparably
and cause heat damage to the vehi-
cle. If you notice any of the above operating
faults, have the necessary repairs car-
ried out as soon as possible by an ap-
proved Dealer.
These faults may be avoided by regu
-
larly taking your vehicle to an approved
Dealer at the intervals specified in the
Maintenance Service Booklet.
Starting problems
To avoid damaging the catalytic con -
verter, do not keep trying to start the
engine (using the start button, or by
pushing or towing the vehicle) without
having identified and corrected the
starting fault.
If the fault cannot be identified, do not
keep trying to start the engine, but con-
tact an approved Dealer.
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.

Rotating hard roof
Rotating HaRD RooF: conditions of use
Conditions of use
Immobilise the vehicle on a flat, level
surface (never with the wheel on the
pavement).
Apply the handbrake.
Temperature above -10°C.
Perform the operation with the engine
running if possible (risk of discharging
the battery).
To prevent the system from overheat -
ing, it cuts out automatically. It becomes
operational again after a maximum of
30 minutes.
When opening or clos -
ing the roof, ensure that
nothing interferes with the
moving parts (roof and roof
cover).
Do not drive with the roof unlocked.
Do not open or close the roof if the
wind speed is more than 20 mph
(30 km/h) (risk of damage to the
roof).
Driver’s responsibility
Never leave your vehicle
with the key or remote con-
trol inside and never leave a
child (or a pet) unsupervised, even
for a short while.
He/she may be able to operate the
rotating hard roof and there is a risk
of trapping his/her neck, arm, hand,
etc., which could cause serious in -
juries.
If anything is trapped, reverse the
rotating hard roof’s direction of
travel immediately by pressing the
opposite side of the roof open/close
button.
Never unlock the roof while
driving.
Risk of damage to the roof
and roof cover.
operating the roof
Before opening/closing the roof, check
that there is sufficient space above the
vehicle to allow it to open.
Minimum height required A: 2.05 m.

Steering becomes heavy. Assistance overheating.Leave to cool.
Faulty power-assisted steering. Consult an approved dealer.
The engine overheats. The coolant
temperature warning light comes on (or
the indicator needle is in the red area). Coolant pump: belt stretched or
broken.
Engine cooling fan not working.Stop the vehicle, switch off the engine and
contact an approved Dealer.
Coolant leaks. Check the condition of hoses and the
tightness of the clips.
Check the expansion bottle: it should
contain coolant. If it does not, top it up
(once it has cooled). Take care not
to scald yourself. This action is only
temporary; consult your approved Dealer
as soon as possible.
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 our Technical Department may be used for this purpose.
