ALL-WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM: 4 wheel drive (4WD) (2/3)
Special note on all-wheel
drive system
– The vehicle may make more
noise when the “AUTO” or “4WD
Lock” modes are activated. This
is normal;
– if the system detects a difference
in the size of the front and rear
wheels (as is the case, for exam-
ple, when the wrong size tyres
are fitted, or if the tyres are un-
der-inflated or significantly worn
on one axle etc.) the message
“4WD not available” is displayed
on the instrument panel and the
indicator light
‘ flashes.
Select “2WD” mode and drive at
a moderate speed;
– always use four tyres with the
same level of wear;
– as soon as the vehicle speed ex-
ceeds 24 mph (40 km/h) in “4WD
Lock” mode, the system automat-
ically switches back to “AUTO”
mode. The indicator light goes
out;
– when the front and rear wheels
are turning at different speeds
(for example, when driving on
uneven road surfaces, sand or
mud, or when being towed, tyres
with different levels of wear), the
oil temperature may rise, given
the mechanical stresses. In this
case, the system automatically
switches back to “2WD” mode to
prevent overheating. The mes-
sage “4WD not available” is
displayed on the instrument
panel and the
‘ or ’
indicator light comes on. Park
the vehicle in a safe place and
wait until the message “4WD not
available” disappears.
If the warning appears again,
contact an approved Dealer.
Operating faults
When the system detects an operating
fault the message “Check 4WD” and
warning light
© appear on the in-
strument panel.
Contact your approved Dealer as soon
as possible.

ALL-WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM: 4 wheel drive (4WD) (3/3)
All-wheel drive system
– Depending on the driving conditions, the system may switch automatically from “2WD” to “4WD”. In this case, the
“4WD” indicator light does not come on.
– Whichever mode is selected, do not start the engine if the rear wheels are on the ground and the front wheels are in the air
(e.g. vehicle jacked up) or if they are resting on rollers.
– Do not press the mode selector switch while cornering, reversing or if the wheels are slipping. Only select the “2WD”,
“AUTO” or “4WD Lock” mode when the vehicle is being driven in a straight line.
– When the engine warms up, the idle speed may be higher. Be careful when driving or stopping on slippery roads with the
“AUTO” mode selected.
– Only use tyres which meet the required specifications.
– Snow chains must only be fitted to the front wheels.
– This function is an additional aid in the event of critical driving conditions, enabling the vehicle behaviour to be adapted to
suit the driving conditions.
However, the function does not take the place of the driver. It does not increase the vehicle’s limits and should not en-
courage you to drive more quickly. Therefore, it can under no circumstances replace the vigilance or responsibility of the
driver when manoeuvring the vehicle (the driver must always be ready for sudden incidents which may occur when driving).
– It is recommended not to use “4WD Lock” mode permanently when driving on roads in good condition.
– Always ensure tyres with identical specifications are fitted to all four wheels (brand, size, structure, wear etc.). Fitting tyres
of different sizes to the front and rear wheels and/or left and right wheels may have serious consequences for the tyres,
gearbox, transfer gearbox and the rear differential pinions.

DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES (4/5)
Hill descent control
This function enables the vehicle speed
to be limited to approximately 4 mph
(7 km/h), without depressing the brake
pedal (when driving down a steep hill).
Activating/deactivating the system
– Activating: press button 1. The
message “HDC on” appears on the
instrument panel.
– Deactivating: press button 1 again:
the message “HDC off” appears on
the instrument panel.
Starting the system
With the vehicle travelling downhill at
less than 15 mph (25 km/h) in first or re-
verse gear (position D or R for vehicles
with an automatic transmission), press
switch 2 to switch to “4WD Lock” mode.
Once a sufficient gradient is detected,
the
• indicator light appears on the
instrument panel, accompanied by the
“HDC operational” message.
Note: if the vehicle speed exceeds
24 mph (40 km/h), the transmission
switches automatically to “AUTO” mode
(the
• indicator light goes out).
The system can be reactivated by
pressing “4WD Lock” when the vehicle
speed drops below 24 mph (40 km/h).
1
With the engine cold, the
automatic hill descent con-
trol function can be de-
activated temporarily (the
• warning light goes out).
When the engine temperature rises,
the warning light comes on again
and the function is available.
The automatic hill descent control
system may be deactivated tempo-
rarily if there is a risk of the braking
system overheating.
If necessary, use the brake pedal to
stop the vehicle.
The driver must remain particularly
vigilant when driving on slippery or
low-grip surfaces and/or on hills.
Risk of serious injury.
This system does not operate when
the gear lever is in neutral (position
N or P for vehicles with an auto-
matic transmission), or if the vehicle
is travelling on flat ground.
2
The hill descent control system is de-
activated as soon as you depress the
brake pedal or the accelerator pedal,
and reactivated as soon as you release
it.

CRUISE CONTROL, SPEED LIMITER: cruise control function (4/4)
Putting the function on
standby
The function is suspended when you:
– press switch 4 (O) ;
– depress the brake pedal;
– depress the clutch pedal or shift the
gear lever into neutral on vehicles
with automatic transmissions or con-
tinuously variable transmissions.
In all three cases, the message
“Memorised” appears on the instrument
panel, followed by the stored speed.
Standby is confirmed when indicator
light
” goes out.
Returning to the cruising speed
If a speed is stored, it can be recalled,
once you are sure that the road condi-
tions are suitable (traffic, road surface,
weather conditions, etc.). With a ve-
hicle speed above 20 mph (30 km/h),
press switch 3 (R).
Note: if the speed previously stored is
much higher than the current speed,
the vehicle will accelerate more rapidly
to reach this threshold.
When the cruise control is sus-
pended, pressing switches 2 (+)
or 5 (-) reactivates the function with-
out taking into account the stored
speed: it is the speed at which the
vehicle is moving that is taken into
account.
Switching off the function
The cruise control function is deacti-
vated if you press switch 1: in this case
a speed is no longer stored. The instru-
ment panel green indicator lights
Î
and
” go out, confirming that the
function is deactivated.
Putting the cruise control
on standby or switching it
off does not cause a rapid
reduction in speed: you
must brake by depressing the brake
pedal.

Operation
N With the gear lever 2 in position P,
switch on the ignition.
To move out of position P, you must de-
press the brake pedal before pressing
the unlocking button 1.
With the foot on the brake pedal (warn-
ing light
c on display A goes out),
move the lever out of position P.
Only engage D or R when the vehi-
cle is stopped, with your foot on the
brake and the accelerator pedal re-
leased.
A
Driving in automatic mode
Select position D. In most traffic con-
ditions, you will not have to touch the
gear selector lever again: the gears will
change automatically at the right time
and at the most suitable engine speed
because the automatic system takes
into account the vehicle load and road
contour and adjusts itself to the particu-
lar driving style you have chosen.
Economical driving
When driving, always leave the lever
in position D, keeping the accelerator
pedal lightly depressed to ensure auto-
matic gear changes at a lower engine
speed.
Accelerating and overtaking
Depress the accelerator pedal firmly
and fully (so that it goes beyond the
kickdown point).
This will enable you to change down
to the optimum gear within the
engine range.

AUTOMATIC OR CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION (2/3)
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:
– backwards to shift down the gears;
– forwards to shift up the gears.
The gear selected is displayed on the
instrument panel.
Special cases
Under certain driving conditions (e.g.
engine protection, or electronic stability
control (ESC) operational etc.) the au-
tomatic system may change gear auto-
matically.
Likewise, to prevent incorrect manoeu-
vres, a gear change may be refused by
the automatic system: in this case the
gear display flashes for a few seconds
as a warning.
Special circumstances
– If the bends and road surface do
not allow you to stay in automatic
mode (e.g. in the mountains), we
recommend that you change to
manual mode.
This will prevent repeated gear
changes when climbing and will
enable engine braking on long de-
scents.
– In very cold weather, to avoid stall-
ing the engine, start the engine and
wait a few seconds before moving
the lever from position P or N to po-
sition D or R.
– Vehicles not fitted with traction
control: to avoid wheelspin when
starting on a slippery or low grip sur-
face, change to manual mode and
select second gear before moving
off.
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.
Depending on the vehicle, apply the
handbrake or check that the elec-
tronic parking brake is on (refer to
the information on the Parking brake in
Section 2).
In very cold weather, the system may prevent the gears from being shifted in
manual mode until the gearbox reaches the right temperature.
An impact to the under-
side of the vehicle while
manoeuvring (e.g.: strik-
ing 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 ap-
proved Dealer.

Operating faults
– when driving, if the “Check auto
gearbox” message appears on the
instrument panel, it indicates a fault.
Contact your approved Dealer as
soon as possible.
– when driving, if the message “Auto
gearbox overheating” appears on
the instrument panel, shift the gear
lever into position N, as soon as pos-
sible.
Contact your approved dealer as
soon as possible.
– If a vehicle with an automatic
gearbox breaks down, refer to the
information on “Towing” in Section 5.
Special note for vehicles equipped
with continuously variable
transmissions:
Under certain driving conditions at high
speeds, the gearbox may temporarily
limit the maximum engine speed. This
is normal.When setting off, if the lever is locked
in position P even though you are de-
pressing the brake pedal and pressing
unlocking button 1, the lever can be re-
leased manually. To do this, unclip the
cover 9 at the base of the lever. Then,
simultaneously press:
– press the button located under
cover 5 (using a flat-blade screw-
driver or similar tool);
– depress the brake pedal;
– press button 1.
Then shift the lever.

Keep the vehicle away from
traffic and on a level sur-
face where it will not slip (if neces-
sary, place a solid support under the
jack base).
Apply the parking brake and engage
a gear (first or reverse, or P for auto-
matic transmissions).
Ask all the passengers to leave the
vehicle and keep them away from
traffic.
To prevent any risk of injury
or damage to the vehi-
cle, raise the jack until the
wheel you are replacing is
a maximum of 3 centimetres off the
ground.
If the vehicle is not equipped with a
jack, wheelbrace or wheel wrench,
these can be obtained from an ap-
proved dealer.
