The presence and operation of the warning lights DEPEND ON THE EQUIPMENT\
AND COUNTRY.
DHandbrake on and brake cir- cuit incident warning light
If it lights up, check that the hand brake is fully released. If not, it indicates that the fluid level is low in one of the cir- cuits. It may be dangerous to continue driving, contact an approved dealer.
mDipped beam headlight tell- tale light
oMain beam headlight tell-tale
light
xAnti-lock braking warning light
This comes on when the ignition is switched on and goes out within three seconds. If it comes on when you are driving, it indicates a fault on the anti- lock braking system. The braking system then operates as it would on a vehicle without the anti-lock braking system.
Contact an approved Dealer as soon as possible.
çSeat belt reminder light
This warning light goes out to let you know that the seat belt has been correctly fastened.
åAir bag warning light
This lights up when the ignition is switched on and goes out after a few seconds.
If it does not light up when the ignition
is switched on, or lights up when the engine is running, there is a fault in the system.
Refer to the information on “Systems in addition to the front seat belts” in Section 1.
Contact an approved Dealer as soon as possible.
]Front passenger air bag de- activation warning light.
Refer to the information on “Child Safety” in Section 1.

Turn the key to starter position D with- out depressing the accelerator pedal.
Release the key as soon as the engine starts.
Starting the engine
Special feature on vehicles equipped with an engine immobiliser system
In very cold conditions (temperatures below –20°C): so that it is easier to start the engine, switch on the ignition for several seconds before starting the engine.
Make sure the engine immobiliser is not activated. Refer to the information on the “Engine immobiliser” in Section 1.
Petrol injection
Engine warm or cold
– Turn the key to the start position
without depressing the accelera- tor.
– Release the key as soon as the
engine starts.
Mise en route / Arrêt du moteur
STARTING/STOPPING THE ENGINE
Never leave your vehicle with the keys inside when leaving a child (or \
animal) in the car, even for a short period.
The reason for this is that the child may endanger himself or others by starting the engine, activating equipment such
as the window winders for example, or locking the doors.
Risk of serious injury.
Never switch off the ignition before the vehicle has stopped completely. Once the engine has stopped, the brake servo, power assisted steering and passive safety equipment such as air bags wi\
ll no longer operate.
The steering is locked when the key is removed.

SPECIAL FEATURES OF PETROL VERSIONS
The following operating conditions:
– driving for long periods when the low
fuel level warning light is lit up,
– using leaded petrol,
– using oil or fuel additives which are
not approved by the manufacturer.
Or operating faults such as:
– faulty ignition, running out of fuel or
spark plug disconnected resulting in engine misfiring and hesitation when driving,
– loss of power,
may cause the catalytic converter to overheat, reducing its efficiency which may irreparably damage it and cause heat damage to the vehicle.
If you notice any of the above operat- ing faults, have the necessary repairs carried out as soon as possible by your approved dealer.
These faults may be avoided by regularly taking your vehicle to your approved dealer at the intervals specified in your 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 continue to try and start the engine, but contact 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 a hot exhaust system.

ADVICE ON ANTIPOLLUTION, FUEL ECONOMY AND DRIVING (continued)
– In vehicles fitted with air condi- tioning, it is normal to observe an increase in fuel consumption (es- pecially in city conditions) when it is used. For vehicles fitted with manual air conditioning, switch off the system when it is not required.
Some advice for reducing fuel consumption and therefore help- ing to protect the environment:
– It is advisable to drive with the air
vents open and the windows closed.
– If the vehicle has been parked in the
sun, open the doors for a few mo- ments to let the hot air escape before starting the engine.
– Never fill the fuel tank to the brim to
avoid overflow.
– Do not leave an empty roof rack
fitted to the vehicle.
– It is better to fit a trailer for bulky ob
- jects.
– When towing a caravan, fit a wind
deflector and adjust it carefully.
Advice on use
– Electricity is fuel; switch off all the electrical components which are not really needed.
However (safety first), keep your lights on when the visibility is bad (“see and be seen”).
– Use the air vents. Driving with the
windows open will increase fuel consumption by 4% at a speed of 60 mph (100 km/h). –
Avoid using the vehicle for door-to
- door journeys (short journeys, with long stops in-between) because in these conditions, the engine never reaches its ideal temperature.
Tyres
Increased fuel consumption could be the result of:
– insufficient pressure,
– using non-recommended tyres.

A Adjusting the ventilation speed. B Adjusting the air temperature. C Selecting recirculation mode. D Air distribution. E Selecting the air conditioning.
Information and advice on use: refer to the end of the paragraph on “Heating/ air conditioning”.
Adjusting the air temperature
Move control B.
To the right: maximum possible tem- perature.
To the left: minimum possible tempera- ture.
yAdjusting the
ventilation speed
Move control A from 0 to 4.
The further the control is positioned to the right, the greater the amount of air blown into the passenger compart- ment.
If you want to shut off the flow of air completely and stop the system, set
control A to 0.
Leaving this control in position 0 for prolonged periods can lead to con- densation forming on the side win- dows and windscreen and problems due to the use of non-renewed air in the passenger compartment.

Isolation of the passenger
compartment/air recirculation(depending on vehicle)
Push control
C to the left.
Under these conditions, air is taken from the passenger compartment and is recirculated, with no air being taken from outside the vehicle.
Air recirculation is used to:
– isolate the passenger compartment
from the external atmosphere (eg.: driving in polluted areas, etc.);
– bring the passenger compartment to
the desired temperature more effec- tively.
To return to the external air position,
push control C to the right.
Prolonged use of this position can lead to condensation forming on the side windows and wind- screen and problems due to the use of non-renewed air in the passenger compartment.
It is therefore advisable to return to normal operation (external air) by
moving control C to the right once you are out of the polluted area.
