ON-BOARD COMPUTER: general information (2/2)
Resetting the trip mileage
With “trip mileage recorder” selected on
the display, press button 2 or 3 until the
mileage recorder resets to zero.
Resetting the journey
parameters (reset button)
With one of the trip parameters selected
as the display, press and hold button 2
or 3 until the display resets.
Interpreting some of the
values displayed after
resetting
The values showing average fuel con-
sumption, range and average speed
will become more stable and reliable
the further you travel after pressing the
reset button.
For the first few miles after pressing
the reset key you will notice that the
range increases as you travel. This
range takes into account the average
fuel consumption since the last time the
reset button was pressed. Therefore,
the average fuel consumption may de-
crease when:
– the vehicle stops accelerating;
– the engine reaches its operating
temperature (if the engine was cold
when the reset key was pressed);
– when driving from an urban area
onto the open road.
Automatic resetting of the
journey parameters
Resetting occurs automatically when
the maximum value of any of the pa-
rameters is exceeded.

With the ignition switched on, the engine not running and
the display set to “SERVICE INTERVALS”, press button 2 or 3
for approximately 5 seconds to display the mileage before serv-
ice (distance or time to the next service). When the range ap-
proaches its limit, there are several possible scenarios:
– distance/time remaining less than 900 miles (1,500 km) or
one month : the message “Service due in” is displayed, ac-
companied by the nearest term (distance or time);
– range equal to 0 km/miles or service date reached: the
message “Service required ” is displayed accompanied by
warning light
©.
The vehicle requires a service as soon as possible.

the next service, then briefly press button 2 or 3 to view the
mileage before the next oil change (distance or time remaining

there are several possible scenarios:
– distance/time remaining less than 900 miles (1,500 km) or

Depending on the vehicle, the mileage before an oil change varies accord\
ing to the driving style (frequent driving at low speed ,
door-to-door journeys, extensive use at idling speed, towing a trailer, etc.). The distance remaining until the next oil change can
therefore decrease more quickly in some cases than the actual distance t\
ravelled.
Resetting: to reset the mileage before the next service, press and hold button 2 or 3 for approximately 10 seconds until the
display shows the mileage before service without flashing.
NB: if a service is performed without changing the engine oil, only the mi\
leage before the next service should be reset. In the
event of an oil change, both the distance before the next service and th\
e next oil change should be reset.

TRIP COMPUTER AND WARNING SYSTEM: warning message
These appear with the ® warning light and require you to stop immediately, for your own safety, as soon as traf-
fic conditions allow. Stop your engine and do not restart it. Contact an approved Dealer.

or alternately (when there are several messages to be displayed), and \
may be accompanied by a warning light and/or a beep.

Power Assisted Steering
Never drive with an inadequately
charged battery.
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).
Adjusting the steering wheel
height and depth
Pull lever 1 and place the steering
wheel in the required position; push the
lever beyond the point of resistance to
lock the steering wheel in place.
Make sure that the steering wheel is
correctly locked.
For safety reasons, only
adjust the steering wheel
when the vehicle is station-
ary.
STEERING WHEEL/POWER-ASSISTED STEERING
1
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.
Never leave the steering wheel at
full lock while stationary.

Heated door mirrorsWith the engine running, mirror de-
icing is activated simultaneously with
rear screen de-icing/demisting.
Folding door mirrors
(depending on vehicle)
Move button 1 to position F: the door
mirrors fold away. To reset them for
driving, return to position C, D or E.
If you manually fold the door mirrors,
before setting them to the driving posi-
tion (C , D , E ), you must position con-
trol 1 to F.
The driver’s door mirror
may have two clearly de-
fined zones. Zone B shows
what can normally be seen
in an ordinary rear view mirror.
Zone A increases rear side visibility.
Objects in the mirror are closer
than they appear.
Door mirrors with electrical
adjustment
With the ignition on , turn button 1:
– position C to adjust the left-hand
door mirror;
– position E to adjust the right-hand
door mirror;
D is the inactive position.
