particle filter is indicated by the
temporary
illumination of this warning lamp
a
ccompanied by a message in the multifunction

a
ccompanied by a "burning" smell,
w
hich is per fectly normal.
Following
prolonged operation of the
v
ehicle at very low speed or at idle,
you
may, in exceptional circumstances,
n
otice the emission of water vapour at
t
he exhaust on acceleration. This does
n
ot affect the behaviour of the vehicle
or
the environment.
When
carrying
out
work
on
the
battery,
refer
t
o the "12 V battery" section for details of the
precautions
to
be
taken
before
disconnecting
t
he
battery
and
following
its
reconnection.
Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty a tmosphere) and the use of the vehicle (e.g. city d
riving),
r
eplace them twice as often if necessar y .
A
clogged passenger compartment filter may have
a
n adverse effect on the per formance of the air
c
onditioning system and generate undesirable
o
dours.
