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...). Use 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:

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 maintenance and warranty guide.
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
000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settle down to
a consistent average.

Steering wheel adjustment
(with power steering)
F When stationary, hold the steering wheel then lower
the lever to release the adjustment mechanism.
F Adjust the steering wheel to the desired height
and then raise the lever to lock the adjustment
mechanism.
For safety reasons, these operations
must not be carried out while driving.
Once these adjustments have been made,
ensure that you can see the instrument
panel clearly from your driving position.
Manual rear view mirror
The rear view mirror has two positions:
- d ay (normal),
-

n
ight (anti-dazzle).
To change from one to the other, push or pull
the lever on the lower edge of the mirror.
Correct driving position
Before taking to the road and to make the most
of the ergonomics of your driving position, carry
out these adjustments in the following order:
-

b

-

c

-

l

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.

Unwanted triggering of the system
It is possible for the system to detect a risk of
imminent collision and start working, in the
following conditions in particular:
-
d
etection of an object located close to the
outer edge of a bend (safety barrier, lamp
post or road sign),
-

d
etection of an object located at the top or
bottom of a steep slope,
-

d
etection of reflective objects (central
reservation...) in the road,
-

d
etection of the upper bar of a bridge or a
traffic light gantry,
-

d
etection of a vehicle on a bend travelling
in the other direction,
-

d
etection of a vehicle traveling in the other
direction, at a crossroads, when your
vehicle is turning left or right,
-

i
f the vehicle ahead of you sends up water
or snow,
-

i
f your vehicle stops very close to a wall or
other vehicles,
-

w
hen your vehicle closes rapidly on the
vehicle ahead,
-

i
f the vehicle is raised or lowered,
-
i

f the vehicle passes through a plastic curtain,
-

i
f driving through mist or smoke,
-

i
f the sensor is misaligned (following
replacement after a collision).
Never leave accumulations of snow or
any object projecting above the bonnet
or in front of the roof: this might fall into
the field of vision of the sensor and
generate a detection.
Operating limits
The system only detects
vehicles (cars, lorries)
that are stationary or moving in the same
direction as your vehicle. In difficult weather conditions (very
heavy rain, snow, fog, hail...), braking
distances increase, which can reduce
the ability of the system to avoid a
collision.
The driver must therefore remain
particularly vigilant.
The system is not triggered or is interrupted if
the driver:
-

a
ccelerates strongly (even if the speed
limiter is on),
-

o
r turns the steering wheel suddenly
(avoiding manoeuvre).
Detection capability is less effective if:
-

y
ou are driving on roads with pronounced
bends and/or on roads in poor condition,
-

y
our vehicle is excessively loaded, as
this changes the horizontal attitude of the
vehicle. It does not detect small vehicles
(bicycles, motorcycles), pedestrians or
animals, nor non-reflective stationary
objects.

Removing a wheel
F Remove the label from the middle of the spare wheel (indicating that a wheel needs
repair), and fix it inside the vehicle, where
the driver can see it.
F

R
emove the wheel trim using the end of the
wheelbrace.
F

S
lacken the wheel bolts using the
wheelbrace 1 . F
P osition the foot of the jack 2 on the
ground and ensure that it is directly below
one the jacking points A or B located on
the underbody, closest to the wheel to be
changed.
Ensure that the jack is stable. If the ground is slippery or loose, the jack may slip or drop -
Risk of injury!
Ensure that the jack is positioned only at one of the jacking points A or B
under the vehicle,
making sure that the vehicle's contact area is centred on the head of the jack. Other wise
there is a risk of damage to the vehicle and/or of the jack dropping - Risk of injury! F
E xtend the jack 2 until its head is in contact
with the jacking point A or B used. The
contact area A or B on the vehicle used
must engage correctly with the middle of
the head of the jack.
