GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR
System which reduces fuel consumption by recommending the
most
appropriate gear.
Operation
depending on the driving situation and
your vehicle's equipment, the system
may
advise you to skip one (or more)
gear(s).
Y
ou can follow this instruction
without
engaging the intermediate
gears.
The
gear engagement
recommendations
must not be
considered
compulsory. In fact, the
configuration
of the road, the amount
of
traffic and safety remain determining
factors when choosing the best
gear
.
Therefore,
the driver remains
responsible for deciding whether or
not to follow the advice given by the
system.
This
function cannot be deactivated.

Acceleration
For optimum acceleration (e.g. to overtake another vehicle), simply
press the pedal beyond the point of
resistance at the end of its travel, by
pressing
down firmly.
Vehicle stationary, with the
engine running
In the event of a prolonged stop with
the engine running, the gearbox
changes automatically to neutral N.
Stopping the vehicle
Before stopping the engine, put the
gear selector in position N.
In all cases, it is essential to apply
the
parking brake. Check that the
parking
brake warning lamp is on in the
instrument
panel.
Before doing anything in the
engine
compartment, check that
the gear selector is in neutral
N.
Changing gear
In situations of high engine speeds
(heavy acceleration), a change
up will not occur unless the driver
operates the electronic gearbox control
paddle. Pull on the "+" control
paddle
to change up.
Pull on the "-" control
paddle to change
down.
-
If the vehicle stops or reduces
speed
(for example when
approaching a stop sign),
the gearbox changes down
automatically
, to first gear if
needed.
-
It is not necessary to release the
accelerator
completely during gear
changes.
-
a
gear change instruction is
accepted only if the engine speed
permits.
-
For safety reasons, depending on
the engine speed, a change down
may
be performed automatically.
Manual mode
Changing to manual mode
Move the gear selector to M. Automatic mode Changing to automatic
mode
Move the gear selector to A.
The gearbox then operates in
automatic
mode,
without
any
action
on
your
part.
It constantly selects the gear that is
best
suited
to
the
following
conditions:
-
driving style,
-
road
profile,
-
optimum
fuel
consumption.

STOP & START
The Stop & Start system puts the engine
temporarily on standby - STOP mode
- during stops in the traffic (red
lights,
traffic jams, or other...).
The
engine
restarts automatically - START
mode
- as soon as you want to move
of
f.
The
restart takes place instantly,
quickly
and silently.
Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start
system
reduces fuel consumption and
exhaust
emissions as well as the noise
level
when stationary.
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
The "ECO" warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel and the
engine goes into standby:
- with a manual gearbox , at speeds
below 12 mph (20 km/h), when you
put the gear lever into neutral and
release the clutch pedal,
-
with
a 6-speed electronic
gearbox,
at speeds below 5 mph
(8
km/h), when you press the brake
pedal or put the gear lever into
position
N. If
your vehicle is fitted with the system,
a
time counter calculates the sum of
the
periods in STOP
mode during a
journey
. It rests itself to zero every time
the
ignition is switched on with the key.
With a 6-speed electronic
gearbox,
for your comfort during
parking
manoeuvres, STOP
mode
is not available for a few seconds after
coming
out of reverse gear.
STOP
mode does not affect the
functionality of the vehicle, such as
braking,
power steering, for example.
n
ever refuel with the engine in
STOP
mode; you must switch off
the
ignition with the key.Special cases: STOP mode
unavailable
STOP
mode is not invoked when:
-
the driver's door is open,
-
the driver's seat belt is not
fastened,
-
the vehicle has not exceeded
6 mph
(10 km/h) since the last
engine
start using the key,
-
the
engine is needed to maintain
a
comfortable temperature in the
passenger
compartment,
-
demisting
is on,
-
some
special conditions (battery
charge,
engine temperature,
braking
assistance, ambient
temperature...)
where the engine
is needed to assure control of a
system.
In this case, the
"ECO"
warning lamp flashes for a
few
seconds, then goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal.

GRIP CONTROL
Correct use
Your vehicle is designed principally to
drive
on tarmac roads but it allows you
to drive on other less passable terrain
occasionally
.
However, particularly when your
vehicle is heavily laden, it does not
permit
off-road activities such as:
-
crossing and driving on ground
which
could damage the underbody
or
tear off components (fuel pipe,
fuel
cooler, ...), particularly by
obstacles or stones,
-
driving on ground with steep
gradients and poor grip,
-
crossing
a stream.
On
snow,
mud
or
sand,
traction
control
is
obtained
by
a
compromise
between
safety

REFUELLING
Low fuel level
Filling
The fuel tank must be filled with
the
engine off.
-
Open
the fuel filler flap.
-
Insert
the key, then turn it a quarter
turn.
-
Remove
the cap and hook it onto
the clip located on the inside of the
flap.
When
filling with fuel, a
mechanical
system prevents
opening
of the left-hand side door.
When
the fuel filler flap is open, ensure
that
no one tries to slide this door.
Once
the flap has been closed, the
sliding
side door may jam, push the
door
to close it then open it.
When the low fuel level is
reached,
this
warning
lamp
comes
on. A
label affixed to the inside of the flap
reminds
you of the type of fuel to be
used.
Y
ou must fill with at least 5 litres of fuel
for
it to be registered by the fuel gauge.
When
the fuel filler cap is opened,
there
may be a slight inrush of air.
This
vacuum
is entirely normal and is due to
the
sealing of the fuel system.
When
filling the fuel tank, do not
continue after the 3rd cut-off of the
nozzle.
This
could
cause malfunctions.
The
capacity
of
the
fuel tank is
approximately
60
litres.
-
After
filling
the
fuel tank, lock the
cap
and
close
the flap.
Fuel used for petrol engines
The petrol engines are compatible with E10 bio-petrol (containing 10 %
ethanol), conforming to European
standards
EN 228 and EN 15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 %
ethanol) are reserved exclusively for
vehicles
marketed for the use of this
type
of fuel (BioFlex vehicles).
The
quality
of the ethanol must comply with
European
standard EN 15293.
You then have approximately 8 litres
of
fuel
remaining.
Fill up without delay to avoid running
out
of
fuel.
Never
risk
driving
until
you
run
out
of
fuel
as
this
may
damage
the
emissions
control
and
injection
systems.

BLUEHDI
AND A D B LUE
® ADDITIVE
The technology
adBlue® is the brand name of the solution needed for operation of the
SCR
system. BlueHDI
vehicles have a specific
a dBlue

® delivery pump for light vehicles.
The
objective
of
BlueHDi
is
to
reduce
by
up
to
90%
the
emissions
of
NOx
(nitrous oxides) in the air
, using a
