Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest items in the
bottom of the boot, as close as possible to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and reduce wind resistance
(roof bars, roof rack...). Use a roof box in preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations on
maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the label in
the door aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
-
b
efore a long journey,
-

a
t each change of season,
-

a
fter a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil, oil filter, air filter,
passenger compartment filter...) and observe the schedule of
operations recommended in the maintenance and warranty guide.
When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of the nozzle to
avoid any over flow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the first 1 800 miles
(3
000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settle down to
a consistent average.

F When stationary, hold the steering wheel then lower
the lever to release the adjustment mechanism.
F Adjust the steering wheel to the desired height
and then raise the lever to lock the adjustment
mechanism.
For safety reasons, these operations
must not be carried out while driving.
Once these adjustments have been made,
ensure that you can see the instrument
panel clearly from your driving position.
Manual rear view mirror

- d ay (normal),
-

n
ight (anti-dazzle).
To change from one to the other, push or pull
the lever on the lower edge of the mirror.

Under-inflation detection
The system monitors the pressures in the four
tyres, once the vehicle is moving.
It compares the information given by the four
wheel speed sensors with reference values,
which must be reinitialised ever y time the
tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel
changed.
The system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one
or more tyres.
The under-inflation detection system
does not replace the vigilance or the
responsibility of the driver.
This system does not avoid the need to
check the tyre pressures (including the
spare wheel) every month as well as
before a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres impairs
road holding, extends braking distances
and causes premature tyre wear,
particularly under arduous condition
(high loading, high speed, long journey).
System which automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.
The inflation pressures defined for
your vehicle can be found on the tyre
pressure label.
See the "Identification markings"
section.
Tyre pressures should be checked
when the tyres are "cold" (vehicle
stopped for 1 hour or after a journey of
less than 6 miles (10 km) at moderate
speeds).
Other wise (when hot), add 0.3 bar to
the pressures shown on the label. Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption.
Hazard warning lamps

indicators to alert other road users to a vehicle

Removing a wheel
F Remove the label from the middle of the spare wheel (indicating that a wheel needs
repair), and fix it inside the vehicle, where
the driver can see it.
F

R
emove the wheel trim using the end of the
wheelbrace.
F

S
lacken the wheel bolts using the
wheelbrace 1 . F
P osition the foot of the jack 2 on the
ground and ensure that it is directly below
one the jacking points A or B located on
the underbody, closest to the wheel to be
changed.
F

E
xtend the jack 2 until its head is in contact
with the jacking point A or B used. The
contact sur face A or B on the vehicle used
must engage correctly with the middle of
the head of the jack. F
Ra ise the vehicle until there is sufficient
space between the wheel and the ground,
so that the (not punctured) spare wheel can
be easily fitted.
Ensure that the jack is stable. If the ground is slippery or loose, the jack may slip or drop -
Risk of injury!
Ensure that the jack is positioned only at one of the jacking points A or B
under the vehicle,
making sure that the vehicle's contact sur face is centred on the head of the jack. Other wise
there is a risk of damage to the vehicle and/or of the jack dropping - Risk of injury!
