AUTOMATIC GEARBOX (2/3)
An impact to the under-
side of the vehicle while 
manoeuvring (e.g.: stri-
king a post, raised kerb or 
other street furniture) may result in 
damage to the vehicle (e.g.: defor-
mation of an axle).
To avoid any risk of accident, have 
your vehicle checked by an appro-
ved Dealer.
In very cold weather,  the system 
may prevent the gears from being 
shifted in manual mode until the 
gearbox reaches the right tempera-
ture.
Driving in manual mode
With the selector lever in position  D, 
move the lever to the left. Shifting the 
lever repeatedly allows you to change 
gears manually:
–  To move down through the gears,  push the lever backwards;
–  To move up through the gears, push  the lever forwards.
The gear selected is displayed on the 
instrument panel.
Special cases
Under certain driving conditions (e.g. 
engine protection, or electronic stability 
program (ESP) operational etc.): the 
automatic system may change gear au-
tomatically.
Likewise, to prevent incorrect ma-
noeuvres, a gear change may be re-
fused by the automatic system: in this 
case the gear display flashes for a few 
seconds as a warning.
Special circumstances
–  If the road contours and bends  
do not allow you to stay in automa-
tic mode (e.g.: in the mountains), 
we recommend that you change to 
manual mode.
This will prevent the automatic gear-
box from changing gears repeatedly 
when climbing, and permit engine 
braking on long descents.
–  In cold weather, to prevent the 
engine from stalling, wait a few mo-
ments before shifting the selector 
lever from position  P or N and enga-
ging  D or R.
Parking the vehicle
When the vehicle is stopped, move the 
lever to position  P while keeping your 
foot on the brake pedal: the gearbox is 
in neutral and the drive wheels are me-
chanically locked by the driveshaft.
Apply the handbrake or, depending 
on the vehicle, ensure that the elec-
tronic parking brake is applied.

FUSES (1/2)
Fuse box
If any electrical component does not 
work, check the condition of the fuses.
Unclip cover  A or B (depending on ve-
hicle).
Tweezers 1
Remove the fuse using tweezers  1, lo-
cated at the back of flap A or B.
To remove the fuse from the tweezers, 
slide the fuse to the side.
It is not advisable to use the free fuse 
locations.
Check the fuse in question 
and  replace it, if neces-
sary,  by a fuse of the same 
rating.
If a fuse is fitted where the rating is 
too high, it may cause the electrical 
circuit to overheat (risk of fire) in the 
event of an item of equipment using 
an excessive amount of current.

To comply with current legislation, or 
as a precaution, you can obtain an 
emergency kit from your approved 
dealer containing a set of spare 
bulbs and fuses.It may be necessary to use clips 
to remove and replace the fuses. 
These can be purchased at an au-
thorised dealer.    

5.26
FUSES (2/2)
Some accessories are protected by 
fuses located in the engine compart-
ment in fuse box C.
However, because of their reduced ac-
cessibility, we advise you to have your 
fuses replaced by an approved Dealer.Allocation of fuses(the presence of certain fuses depends
