Driver’s responsibility
Never leave your vehicle
with the keys inside when
leaving a child (or animal)

The reason for this is that the child
may endanger himself or others by
starting the engine, activating equip-
ment such as the window winders
for example, or locking the doors.

Engine immobiliser
ENGINE IMMOBILISER
This prevents the vehicle being
driven by anyone not in possession
of the vehicle’s coded ignition key.
Operating principle
The vehicle is automatically protected
a few seconds after the ignition is
switched off.
If the vehicle does not recognise the
coded ignition key, tell-tale light
1

will
flash continuously and the engine
cannot be started.
Any unauthorised work
carried out on the engine
immobiliser (computers,
wiring, etc.) could be dan-
gerous. Work must be carried out
by qualified personnel.
System operation
When the ignition is switched on, tell-
tale
1 lights up continuously for approx-
imately three seconds and then goes
out. The vehicle has recognised the
code. You can then start the engine.
Vehicle protection
A few seconds after the ignition has
been switched off, tell-tale light
1

will
flash constantly.
The vehicle will only be protected after
the ignition has been switched off. Operating faults
After the ignition has been switched
on, if warning light
1 continues to flash
or remains continuously lit, there is a
system operating fault.
In all cases, it is essential to contact
an approved dealer as only they are
qualified to repair the engine immobi-
liser.
If the coded ignition key is faulty,
use the second key (supplied with
the vehicle).

Seat belts
Always wear your seat belt when trav-
elling in your vehicle. You must also
comply with the legislation of the par-
ticular country you are in.
Make sure that the rear bench seat
is locked in position correctly so that
the rear seat belts will operate effi-
ciently. Refer to the information on
the “Rear bench seat: functions” in
Section 3.
I n c o r r e c t l y a d j u s t e d o r
twisted seat belts may
cause injuries in the event
of an accident.
Use one seat belt per person,
whether child or adult.
Even pregnant women should wear
a seat belt. In this case, ensure that
the lap belt is not exerting too much
pressure on the abdomen, but do
not allow any slack.
Before starting, adjust your driving
position and then have each occu-
pant adjust their seat belt to ensure
optimum protection.
Adjusting your driving position
(depending on the vehicle)
–

S
it well back in your seat (having
removed your coat or jacket etc.).
This is essential to ensure your back
is positioned correctly;
–

a
djust the distance between the
seat and the pedals. Your seat
should be as far back as possible
while still allowing you to depress
the clutch pedal fully. The seatback
should be adjusted so that your arms
are slightly bent when you hold the
steering wheel;
–

adjust
the position of the steering
wheel.
–

a
djust the position of your head-
rest. For the maximum safety, your
head must be as close as possible to
the headrest;
–

Adjust
the height of the seat. This
adjustment allows you to select the
seat position which offers you the
best possible view. Adjusting the seat belts
Sit with your back firmly against the
seatback.
Shoulder strap
1 should be as close as
possible to the base of the neck but not
on it.
Lap belt
2

must be worn flat over the
thighs and against the pelvis. The seat
belt must be worn as close to the body
as possible. i.e.: avoid wearing heavy
clothing or keeping bulky objects under
the belts, etc.

Make sure that the seat belt is locked
in position correctly after you have ad-
justed it.
To fasten
Unwind the belt slowly and smoothly
and ensure that buckle 4
locks into
catch
6 (check that it is locked by pull-
ing on buckle
4). If the belt jams, allow
it to return slightly before attempting to
unwind it again.
If your seat belt is completely jammed,
pull slowly, but firmly, so that just over
3 cm unwinds. Allow it to return slightly
before attempting to unwind it again.
If there is still a problem, contact an ap-
proved dealer.

SYSTEMS IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (2/4)
Driver’s and passenger air
bags
These may be provided for the driver
and the front passenger seats.
The presence of this equipment is in-
dicated by the words “Air bag” on the
steering wheel and the dashboard, and
a label on the base of the windscreen or
on the sun visor.
Each air bag system consists of:
–

a
n air bag and gas generator fitted
on the steering wheel for the driver
and in the dashboard for the front
passenger;
–

an
electronic unit for system monitor-
ing which controls the gas generator
electrical trigger system;
–

a special tell-tale light å;
–

remote sensors.
Load limiter
Above a certain level of impact force,
this mechanism is used to limit the force
of the belt against the body so that it is
at an acceptable level.
The air bag system uses
pyrotechnic principles. This
explains why, when the air
bag inflates, it will gener-
ate heat, produce smoke (this does
not mean that a fire is about to start)
and make a noise upon detonation.
An air bag may inflate immediately,
causing some minor, superficial
grazing to the skin or other discom-
fort.

SYSTEMS IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (3/4)
Operation
This system is only operational when
the ignition is switched on.
If a severe frontal impact occurs, the
air bag(s) inflate(s) rapidly, cushion-
ing the impact of the driver’s head and
chest against the steering wheel and
the front passenger’s head against the
dashboard. The air bag then deflates
immediately so that the passengers are
not impeded in any way when they get
out of the vehicle.
Operating faults
Warning light 1 will light up on the in-
strument panel when the ignition is
turned on and then go out after a few
seconds.
If it does not light up when the ignition
is switched on, or comes on when the
engine is running, there is a fault in the
system. In this case, a child seat MUST NOT be
fitted to the front passenger seat.
Allowing any other passenger to sit in
that seat is not recommended.
In these two cases, contact an ap-
proved dealer as soon as possible.

pyrotechnic principles. This
explains why, when the air
bag inflates, it will gener-
ate heat, produce smoke (this does
not mean that a fire is about to start)
and make a noise upon detonation.
In a situation where an air bag is
required, it will inflate immediately
and this may cause some minor, su-
perficial grazing to the skin or other
problems.

xAnti-lock braking warning
light
This light comes on when the ignition is
switched on and goes out within three
seconds. If it lights up when you are
driving, it indicates a fault in the anti-
lock braking system. Braking will then
be as normal, without the ABS system:
contact an approved dealer urgently.

#Engine oil change warning
light
This lights up on the instrument panel
when an oil change is required.
Change the oil or have it changed as
soon as possible.
Only the distance travelled between two
oil changes is taken into account; the
time interval between two oil changes
is not.
The oil should always be changed
when the first threshold is reached, i.e.
either the distance travelled or the inter-
val specified in your vehicle’s mainte-
nance document. This means you may
have to change the oil before the warn-
ing light comes on.
Refer to the information on the “Oil
change” in Section 4.
WARNING LIGHTS (1/3)
The presence and operation of the warning lights DEPEND ON THE EQUIPMENT\
AND COUNTRY.

If no lights or sounds are ap-
parent, this indicates a fault
in the instrument panel. This
indicates that it is essential

fic conditions allow). Ensure that the
vehicle is correctly immobilised and
contact an approved Dealer.
Instrument panel A
The û warning light re-
quires you to stop immedi-
ately, for your own safety,
as soon as traffic conditions allow.
