Interpreting some of the
values displayed after
resetting
The values showing average fuel con-
sumption, range and average speed
will become more stable and reliable
the further you travel after pressing the
reset button.
For the first few miles after pressing the
reset key you will notice that the range
increases as you travel. This range
takes into account the average fuel con-
sumption since the last time the reset
button was pressed. Therefore, the fuel
consumption may decrease when:
–

the vehicle stops accelerating
;
–

t
he engine reaches its operat-
ing temperature (if the engine
was cold when the reset key was
pressed);
–

d
riving from an urban area onto
the open road;



Therefore,
if the average fuel con-
sumption decreases, the range
will increase. –

Y
ou may also notice that the aver-
age fuel consumption increases
when the vehicle is stationary and
the engine idling.
This is normal, since the computer
takes account of fuel used during
idling.
Manually resetting the journey param-
eters: with the display showing one of
the journey parameters, press button 2
until the display is reset.
Automatically resetting the journey pa-
rameters: the reset is automatic when
the capacity of one of the memories is
exceeded.

FUEL TANK (2/3)
Petrol version
It is essential to use unleaded petrol.
The octane rating (RON) must conform
with the specifications given on the
label inside the fuel filler flap

A
.
Diesel versions
It is essential to use diesel fuel that
conforms to the specifications given on
the label inside fuel filler flap

A
.
Filling with fuel
Insert the nozzle to open valve B and
insert it fully before turning it on to fill
the fuel tank (risk of splashing).
Hold it in this position for the whole fill-
ing operation. Following the first auto-
matic shut-off at the end of filling, the
trigger can be pulled two more times at
most, to leave room for expansion.
Make sure that no water enters the fuel
tank during filling. Valve
B

and its sur-
round must remain clean.
Petrol versions
Using leaded petrol will damage the
antipollution system and may lead to a
loss of warranty.
To ensure that the fuel tank is not filled
with leaded petrol, the fuel tank filler
neck contains a restrictor fitted with a
foolproof system which only allows
the nozzle for unleaded petrol to be
used (at the pump).
Persistent smell of fuel
If you notice a persistent
smell of fuel you should:
–

s
top the vehicle as soon
as traffic conditions allow and
switch off the ignition;
–

s

witch on the hazard warning
lights and ask your passengers to
leave the vehicle and stay clear
of the traffic;
–

contact an approved Dealer

Special features of petrol versions
SPECIAL FEATURES OF PETROL VERSIONS
The following operating conditions:
–

driving
for long periods when the low
fuel level warning light is lit;
–

using leaded petrol;
–


u
sing oil or fuel additives which are
not approved by the manufacturer.
Or operating faults such as:
–

faulty
ignition system, running out of
fuel or disconnected spark plugs re-
sulting in the engine misfiring or cut-
ting out when driving;
–

loss of power
,
may cause the catalytic converter to
overheat, reducing its efficiency which
may irreparably damage it and cause
heat damage to the vehicle. If you notice any of the above operating
faults, have the necessary repairs car-
ried out as soon as possible by an ap-
proved Dealer.
These faults may be avoided by reg-
ularly taking your vehicle to your ap-
proved dealer at the intervals speci-
fied in your Maintenance Service
Document.
Starting problems
To avoid damaging the catalytic con-
verter,
do not keep trying to start the
engine (using the start button, or by
pushing or towing the vehicle) without
having identified and corrected the
starting fault.
If the fault cannot be identified, do not
continue to try and start the engine, but
contact an approved dealer.
Do not park the vehicle or
run the engine in locations
where combustible sub-
stances or materials such
as grass or leaves can come into
contact with a hot exhaust system.

o not try to maintain the same
speed up a hill, accelerate no more
than you would on the level. Keep
your foot in the same position on the
accelerator pedal.
–

Double
declutching and accelerating
before switching off are unnecessary
in modern vehicles.

P
oor weather conditions, flooded
roads. Do not drive through water if it
is higher than the lower edge of the
wheel rim.Exhaust gas monitoring
system
The exhaust gas monitoring system de-
tects operating faults in the vehicle’s
antipollution system. These faults may
cause mechanical damage or the re-
lease of harmful substances.
ÄThis warning light on the in-
strument panel will indicate if
there are any faults in the system:
This comes on when the ignition is
switched on and goes out after three
seconds.

f it comes on continuously, consult
an approved dealer as soon as pos-
sible.
–

If

it flashes, reduce the engine speed
until the light stops flashing. Contact
an approved dealer as soon as pos-
sible.
Driving– Drive carefully for the first few miles until the engine reaches its normal
operating temperature, rather than
let it warm up while the vehicle is sta-
tionary.
ADVICE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (2/3)
Driving problems
On the driver ’s side, only
use mats specially adapted
for the vehicle and attached
to prefitted devices. Check regularly
to make sure they are secure. Do
not overlay several mats.
Risk of pedals jamming .
– Speed is expensive.
–

Sporty

with a light right foot.
–

Study

able to brake as little as possible, it
can be sufficient just to lift off the ac-
celerator.
–

A
void sudden acceleration.
–

Do
not overrev the engine in the in-
termediate gears. Always use the
highest gear possible without labour-
