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...). u
s
 e 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 manufacturer's service schedule.
With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR system is faulty your vehicle 
becomes polluting; go to a P

without delay to have the emissions of nitrous oxides brought back to 
the legal level.
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

Switching off
When the cruise control is switched on, 
be careful if you maintain the pressure 
on one of the programmed speed 
changing buttons: this may result in a 
very rapid change in the speed of your 
vehicle.
Do not use the cruise control on 
slippery roads or in heavy traffic.
On a steep descent, the cruise control 
will not be able to prevent the vehicle 
from exceeding the programmed speed.
On steep climbs or when towing, the 
programmed speed may not be reached 
or maintained.

Active cruise control
this systems allows the vehicle's speed to be 
maintained at a value set by the driver.
In addition it allows (when circumstances 
permit) an inter-vehicle time that you have 
selected to be maintained between your vehicle 
and the one in front.Principles of operation
using a radar with a range of about 100 metres, 
located at the front of the vehicle, this system 
detects a vehicle running in front of your 
vehicle.
It automatically adapts the speed of your 
vehicle to that of the vehicle in front.
If the vehicle in front is running more slowly, 
the system progressively reduces the speed of 
your vehicle using just engine braking (as if the 
driver had pressed the "-" b ut to n).
If your vehicle is too close to, or approaching 
too quickly the vehicle in front, the cruise 
control is automatically deactivated. 
t
h
 e 
driver is then alerted by an audible signal, 
accompanied by a message.
If the vehicle in front accelerates or changes 
lane, the active cruise control progressively 
accelerates your vehicle to return to the 
programmed speed.
If the driver operates a direction indicator to 
overtake a slower vehicle, the active cruise 
control allows your vehicle to temporarily 
approach the vehicle in front to assist the 
overtaking manoeuvre, though never exceeding 
the programmed speed.
Switching between the 
types of cruise control
the choice between the "active" and "standard" 
cruise control is made in the " Driving 
assistance " menu.
th
e cruise control selection thumb wheel must 
be in the "CR
uI
S
e" p
 osition, other wise the 
choice will not be taken into account.
For more information on the 
"standard" cruise control, refer to the 
corresponding section.
th
e state of the system is memorised on 
switching off the ignition. F
 
P
 ress the button to 
change from active 
cruise control to 
standard cruise 
control and vice-
versa.
th
 e active cruise control operates by 
day and at night, in fog or moderate 
rainfall.th e system does not act on the braking 
system, but works only with engine 
braking.
th
e regulation range is limited: there will 
no longer be any adjustment of speed if 
the difference between the programmed 
speed setting and the speed of the 
vehicle in front becomes too high.
th
 e selection of this system deactivates 
the display of inter-vehicle time.
If the difference between the 
programmed speed setting and the 
speed of the vehicle in front is too 
great, the speed cannot be adjusted: 
the cruise control is automatically 
deactivated.

Park Assist
this system provides active assistance with 
parking, detecting a parking space then 
controlling the steering to park in the space.
It controls the steering while the driver 
manages the accelerator, brakes, gears and 
clutch (manual gearbox). During phases of 
entry into and exit from a parking space, the 
system provides visual and audible information 
to the driver in order to make the manoeuvres 
safe. It may be necessary to move for wards 
and backwards more than once.During a manoeuvre the steering wheel 
turns quickly: do not hold the steering 
wheel, do not place your hand between 
the spokes of the steering wheel and 
take care with loose and bulky clothing, 
scarves, handbags... 
t
h
 ere is a risk of 
injury.
When Park Assist is activated, it 
prevents a change to S
tO
P mode of 
Stop & Start. In S
tO
P mode, activation 
of Park Assist restarts the engine.
th
e Park Assist system cannot in any 
circumstances replace the need for 
vigilance on the part of the driver.
th
e driver must remain in control 
of their vehicle ensuring that the 
space remains clear throughout the 
manoeuvre.
In some circumstances, the sensors 
may not detect small obstacles located 
in their blind spots.
th
e driver can take control at any time by 
gripping the steering wheel.th e Park Assist system provides 
assistance for the following 
manoeuvres:
-
 e
ntry into a parallel parking space
-
 e
xit from a parallel parking space
-
 b
ay parking
th
 e Park Assist system takes control 
of the power steering for a maximum 
of 4 manoeuvre cycles. 
t
h
 e function 
is deactivated after these 4 cycles. 
If you think that your vehicle is not 
positioned correctly, you should then 
take control of the steering to carry out 
the manoeuvre.

e Park Assist system cannot work 
with the engine off.

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 .
th
e system triggers an alert as soon as it 
detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one 
or more tyres.th e under-inflation detection system 
does not replace the need for vigilance 
on the part of the driver.
th
is 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.th
e inflation pressures defined for 
your vehicle can be found on the tyre 
pressure label.
For more information on the 
identification markings, refer to the 
corresponding section.
ty
re 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.
Snow chains
the system does not have to be 
reinitialised after fitting or removing 
snow chains.
