Make sure nothing is left
in the engine compartment
(cloth, tools, etc.).
Otherwise, this may lead to
engine damage or cause a fire.
In the event of even a slight
impact involving the radia-
tor grille or bonnet, have
the bonnet lock checked by
an approved Dealer as soon as pos-
sible.
Ensure that the bonnet is prop-
erly locked. Check that nothing is
preventing the catch from locking
(gravel, cloth, etc.).
BONNET (2/2)
Never activate the remote
engine start-up function
or its programming before
opening the bonnet or when
it is open.

Resetting the alert after an oil
change
(depending on the vehicle)
If you change the oil yourself, you will
need to reset the oil change warning.

tion, for ten seconds you must:
– Depress the accelerator pedal fully,
– with your foot on the accelerator, de-
press the brake pedal three times in
succession.
Reinitialisation is complete when the
# indicator light goes out. If this is
not the case, repeat the operation.
Special case: if you change the oil
before the oil change interval exceeded
warning is displayed, it will also be nec-
essary to reset the display. In this case,
the
# warning light comes on for
approximately 5 seconds to confirm the
reset.
The engine may be hot
during operations in close
proximity. In addition, the
engine cooling fan may
come on at any moment.
Risk of injury.

must the maximum fill level
be exceeded: risk of damage to the
engine and catalytic converter.
