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, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a roof box in preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refi t 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:
- before a long journey,
- at each change of season,
- after 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 fi lter, air fi lter...)
and observe the schedule of operations recommended by the
manufacturer.
When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of the nozzle to
avoid any overfl ow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the fi rst 1 800 miles
(3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settle down to
a consistent average.

Access
Good practice
When opening, take care not to obstruct the
guide space on the floor to allow the door to
slide correctly.
Do not block traffic.
Load space

Side-hinged rear doors
To open, slide the control B

As a safety precaution and to guarantee
correct operation, do not drive with the
sliding side door open. Press once to unlock the sliding
side doors and the rear doors
(Light van) from the driving
position.
Tailgate (Combi)
In the event of a battery or central
locking fault, the tailgate can be released
mechanically from inside the boot.
