This hand- book covers all items of equipment (both standard and optional) available for these models, but whether or not these are fitted to the vehicle depends on the version, options selected and the c\
ountry where the vehicle is sold.
This handbook may also contain information about items of equipment to b\
e introduced later in the model year.

- tenance.
– to enable you to deal quickly with minor faults not requiring specialist attention.
It is well worth taking a few minutes to read this handbook to familiarise yourself with the information and guidelines it contains

KEYS/RADIO FREQUENCY REMOTE CONTROL
Radio frequency remote
control unit
A
Remote control A locks and unlocks the doors and tailgate.
It is powered by a battery which must be replaced every two years (refer to the information on the “Radio frequency remote control: battery” in Section 5).
Driver’s responsibility
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 equip- ment such as the window winders for example, or locking the doors.
Risk of serious injury.

KEYS/RADIO FREQUENCY REMOTE CONTROL (continued)
Note: if an opening element (door or tailgate) is open or not properly closed, the hazard warning lights will not flash.
Note: on certain vehicles, if a door is not opened within approximately
30 seconds of the door being unlocked by remote control, the doors will lock again automatically.
Interference
Interference by factors in the immediate vicinity (external installations or the use of equipment operating on the same frequency as the remote control) may affect the operation of the remote con- trol.

ENGINE IMMOBILISER
This prevents the vehicle being driven by anyone not in possession of the vehicle’s coded ignition key.
Operating principle
The vehicle is automatically protected a few seconds after the ignition is switched off.
If the vehicle does not recognise the
coded ignition key, tell-tale light 1 will flash continuously and the engine cannot be started.
Any unauthorised work carried out on the engine immobiliser (computers, wiring, etc.) could be dan- gerous. Work must be carried out by qualified personnel.
Indicator light
System operating tell-tale light
When the ignition is switched on, tell-
tale 1 lights up continuously for approx- imately three seconds and then goes out. The vehicle has recognised the code. You can then start the engine. v
ehicle protection tell-tale light
A few seconds after the ignition has
been switched off, tell-tale light 1 will flash constantly.
The vehicle will only be protected after the ignition has been switched off.
Operating fault warning light
After the ignition has been switched
on, if warning light 1 continues to flash or remains continuously lit, there is a system operating fault.
In all cases, it is essential to contact an approved dealer as only they are qual- ified to repair the engine immobiliser.
If the coded ignition key is faulty, use the second key (supplied with the vehicle).

FRONT SEAT BELTS
If your seat belt becomes completely jammed:
– pull the belt slowly but firmly so that
just over 3 cm unwinds;
– then allow the seat belt to rewind au
- tomatically;
– unwind it again;
– if there is still a problem, contact your
approved dealer.
çSeat belt reminder
light
Depending on the country, it comes on when the engine is started if the driv- er ’s seat belt is not fastened. When the vehicle is being driven, it comes on and a bleep sounds for approximately 2 minutes until the driver’s seat belt is fastened.
Unlocking
Press button 4 on catch 5 and the seat belt will be rewound by the inertia reel.
Guide the buckle to help the operation.
Adjusting the height
of the seat belt
Move button 1 to select the position you
require so that shoulder strap 2 is worn as described above.
Make sure that the seat belt is locked in position correctly after you have ad- justed it.

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (continued)
Operation
This system is only operational when the ignition is switched on.
If a severe frontal impact occurs, the air bag(s) inflate(s) rapidly, cushion- ing the impact of the driver’s head and chest against the steering wheel and the front passenger’s head against the dashboard. The air bag then deflates immediately so that the passengers are not impeded in any way when they get out of the vehicle.
In addition to the driver ’s air bag system, the passenger air bag system has a front passenger air bag deacti- vation warning light on the instrument panel. This warning light is associated with the front passenger air bag deacti- vation system.
It lights up to indicate that the passen- ger air bag will not be inflated in the event of an impact (for more informa- tion about the operation of this system, refer to the section on “Deactivating the
front passenger air bag” in Section 1).
Operating faults
Warning light 1 will light up on the in- strument panel when the ignition is turned on and then go out after a few seconds.
If it does not light up when the ignition is switched on, or comes on when the engine is running, there is a fault in the system.
In this case, a rear-facing child seat MUST NOT be fitted to the front pas- senger seat.
Allowing any other passenger to sit in that seat is not recommended.
In these two cases, contact your approved dealer as soon as possible.
The airbag system uses py- rotechnic principles. This explains why, when the airbag inflates, it will gener- ate heat, produce smoke (this does not mean that a fire is about to start) and make a noise upon detonation. In a situation where an airbag is de- ployed, it will inflate immediately and this may cause some minor, su-
perficial grazing to the skin or other problems.

Child safety: general information
CHILD SAFETY : general information
Carrying children
Children, and adults, must be correctly seated and strapped in for all journeys. The children being carried in your vehi- cle are your responsibility.
A child is not a miniature adult. Children are at risk of specific injuries as their muscles and bones have not yet fin- ished growing. The seat belt alone would not provide suitable protection. Use an approved child seat and ensure you use it correctly.
A collision at 30 mph (50 km/h) is the same as falling a distance of
10 metres. Transporting a child without a restraint is the equivalent of allowing him or her to play on a fourth-floor balcony without railings.Never travel with a child held in your arms. In the event of an accident, you will not be able to keep hold of the child, even if you yourself are wearing a seat belt.
If your vehicle has been involved in a road accident, replace the child seat and have the seatbelts checked.
Never leave a child unat- tended in the vehicle.
Check that your child is always strapped in and that the belt or safety harness used is correctly set and adjusted. Avoid wearing bulky clothing which could cause the belts to slacken.
Never let your child put their head or arms out of the window.
Check that the child is in the correct position for the entire journey, espe- cially if asleep.
Set a good example by always fas- tening your seat belt and teaching your child:
– to strap themselves in correctly.
– to always get in and out of the car
at the kerb, away from busy traf- fic.
Do not use a second-hand child seat or one without an instruction manual.
Check that there are no objects in the vicinity of the child seat which could impede its operation.
To prevent the doors being opened, use the “Child safety” device (refer to the information on “Locking the doors” in Section 1).
Using a child seatThe level of protection offered by the child seat depends on its ability to re- strain your child and on its installation. Incorrect installation compromises the protection it offers the child in the event of harsh braking or an impact.
Before purchasing a child seat, check that it complies with the regulations for the country you are in and that it can be fitted in your vehicle. Consult an ap- proved dealer to find out which seats are recommended for your vehicle.
Before fitting a child seat, read the manual and respect its instructions. If you experience any difficulties during installation, contact the manufacturer of the equipment. Keep the instructions with the seat.
