Electronic key: Keyless
Entry and Starting
This system allows the locking, unlocking and
starting the vehicle by keeping the key on your
person and in the recognition zone.
Stop & Start
This system puts the engine temporarily
into standby during stops in the traffic (red
lights, traffic jams, etc...). The engine restarts
automatically as soon as you want to move
off. The Stop & Start system reduces fuel
consumption, exhaust emissions and the noise
level when stationary.
Under-inflation detection
This system automatically checks the tyre
pressures when driving and alerts you in the
event of an under-inflated tyre.
Active City Brake
The aim of this system is to avoid a frontal
collision or reduce the speed of impact if the
driver fails to react or reacts too late.
Lane departure warning
system
This system gives a warning if you inadvertently
cross a longitudinal road marking. 108

Warning


/ indicator lamp
State Cause Action

/ Observations
Under-inflation fixed. The pressure in one or more wheels
is too low. Check the tyre pressures as soon as possible.
This check should preferably be carried out when the
tyres are cold.
You must reinitialise the system after the adjustment
of one or more tyre pressures and after changing one
or more wheels.
For more information, refer to the "Under-inflation
detection" section.

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 need for vigilance
on the part 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.
Hazard warning
lamps
Visual warning by means of the direction
indicators to alert other road users to a vehicle
breakdown, towing or accident.

check.

in the temporary puncture repair kit) check

n the event of a puncture, use the
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare
wheel (depending on equipment).
The alert is maintained until the system
is reinitialised.
Reinitialisation
Before reinitialising the system, ensure
that the pressures of the four tyres are
correct for the use of the vehicle and in
line with the recommendations on the
tyre pressure label.
The under-inflation detection system
does not give a warning if a pressure is
incorrect at the time of reinitialisation.
It is necessary to reinitialise the system every
time one or more tyre pressure is adjusted, and
after changing one or more wheels.
A label attached to the middle pillar, driver's
side, gives a reminder of this.
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.

Should the pressure of one or more
tyres be adjusted, it is necessary to
reinitialise the under-inflation detection
system.
Refer to the "Under-inflation detection"
section.
Tyre under-inflation
detection
After repair of the tyre, the warning
lamp will remain on until the system is
reinitialised.
For more information, refer to the
"Under-inflation detection" section.
