DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING (3/3)
Tyres
– An underinflated tyre increases fuel consumption.
– The use of non-recommended tyres can increase fuel consumption.
– In vehicles fitted with air condi-
tioning, it is normal to observe an
increase in fuel consumption (es-
pecially in urban conditions) when
it is used. For vehicles fitted with
manual air conditioning, switch off
the system when it is not required.
Advice for reducing consumption
and therefore helping to preserve
the environment:
If the vehicle has been parked in the
sun, open the doors for a few mo-
ments to let the hot air escape before
starting the engine.
– Do not leave an empty roof rack fitted to the vehicle.
– It is better to fit a trailer for bulky ob- jects.
– When towing a caravan, fit a wind deflector and adjust it carefully.
– Avoid using the car for door-to-door calls (short journeys with long waits
in between) because the engine
never reaches its normal operating
temperature.
Advice on use
– Electricity is fuel; switch off all the
electrical components which are
not really needed. However (safety
first), keep your lights on when the
visibility is bad (“see and be seen”).
– Use the air vents. Driving with the windows open at 60 mph (100 km/h)
will increase fuel consumption by
4%.
– Never fill the fuel tank right to the brim to avoid overflow.

RETRACTABLE GLASS ROOF: conditions of use (1/2)
Conditions of use
– Immobilise the vehicle on flat, level ground (not with two wheels on a
kerb, for example) away from traffic.
– Perform the procedure with the engine running (risk of battery dis-
charging) and the vehicle stationary.
– To prevent the hydraulic system overheating, it is automatically cut
off after about 3 minutes of use. It
becomes operational again after a
maximum of about 10 minutes.
– Never retract the roof into the lug- gage compartment when it is wet.
– Make sure that the roof seals and run channels are clean to allow rain-
water to drain away quickly.
– Ensure that no luggage is placed above the luggage separator in the
luggage compartment.
Do not drive with the roof
in the intermediate position
(neither open nor closed).
Do not open or close the
roof in the wind speed of more than
25 mph (40 km/h) (risk of damage
to the roof).
To avoid all risk of injury,
ensure that nobody is in
the proximity of the moving
parts.
When opening or closing the roof,
ensure that nothing interferes with
the moving parts (roof and luggage
compartment lid).
– Do not operate the roof in minus temperatures.
– If there is any ice or snow prevent- ing the windows from lowering when
the roof is operating, this ice or snow
must be removed to free the win-
dows.
Note: the operation is only possible
when the vehicle is stationary.
Special feature of vehicles equipped
with parking distance control
The system is designed to aid parking,
and under no circumstances guaran-
tees a sufficient distance to operate the
retractable roof. Before operating the
roof, ensure that the surrounding space
is greater than the minimum required
distance.
In all cases, a continuous sound indi-
cates that the roof cannot move.

3.4
RETRACTABLE GLASS ROOF: opening
Before opening the roof
– Perform the procedure with the engine running (risk of battery dis-
charging) and the vehicle stationary.
– Ensure that the boot divider 1 is well
tensioned and that the boot is fully
closed.
Note: If one of these conditions is
not met, the message “Roof: shut
boot blind” or “Roof: see handbook”
appears on the instrument panel.
– Ensure that no object has been left in the part reserved for the roof (above
the divider 1).
– Make sure that no object is pushing up the boot divider 1.
– Make sure that no object projects above the boot divider 1.
– Check that no object has been left on the roof, on the luggage compart-
ment lid or on the parcel shelf behind
the rear headrests.
– Remove any ice or snow (risk of seal damage).
To avoid all risk of injury,
ensure that nobody is in
the proximity of the moving
parts.
When opening or closing the roof,
ensure that nothing interferes with
the moving parts (roof and luggage
compartment lid).

Opening the roof
Move the switch 2 backwards, all four
windows go down a few centimetres.
Hold the switch backwards until the
roof is fully open (boot closed), the win-
dows go up again. A beep sounds to-
gether with the message “Operation
completed” when the operation ends.
Holding the switch 2 in the “open” posi-
tion lowers all the windows.
Release the switch. You may now start
driving. Note: if you stop closing the roof during
the operation, the roof will lower slowly
in stages over 10 minutes.

3.5
RETRACTABLE GLASS ROOF: closing
Closing the roof
Move the switch 2 forwards to close the
roof fully (roof closed and boot closed);
a beep sounds together with the mes-
sage “Operation completed” when the
operation ends.
Holding the switch 2 in the “close” posi-
tion raises all the windows.
Release the switch. You can now drive.
Before closing the roof
– Perform the procedure with the engine running (risk of battery dis-
charging) and the vehicle stationary.
– Ensure that the luggage compart- ment divider is well tensioned and
that the tailgate is fully closed.
Note: If one of these conditions is
not met, the message “Roof: shut
boot blind ” or “ Roof: see handbook”
appears on the instrument panel.
– Make sure that there are no objects in the space between the different
parts of the roof and above the lug-
gage compartment divider.
– Check that no objects have been left on the tailgate or on the parcel shelf
behind the rear headrests.
