electric windows or locking the 
doors.
Also, in hot and/or sunny weather, 
please remember that the tempera-
ture inside the passenger compart-
ment increases very quickly.

CHILD SAFETY: General information (1/2)
Carrying children
Children, and adults, must be correctly 
seated and strapped in for all journeys. 
The children being carried in your vehi-
cle are your responsibility.
A child is not a miniature adult. Children 
are at risk of specific injuries as their 
muscles and bones have not yet fin-
ished growing. The seat belt alone 
would not provide suitable protection. 
Use an approved child seat and ensure 
you use it correctly.
A collision at 30 mph 
(50 km/h) is the same as fall-
ing a distance of 10 metres. 
Transporting a child without 
a restraint is the equivalent of allow-
ing him or her to play on a fourth-
floor balcony without railings.
Never travel with a child held in your 
arms. In the event of an accident, 
you will not be able to keep hold of 
the child, even if you yourself are 
wearing a seat belt.
If your vehicle has been involved in 
a road accident, replace the child 
seat and have the seat belts and 
ISOFIX anchorage points checked.
To prevent the doors being 
opened, use the “Child 
safety” device (refer to the 
information on “Opening 
and closing the doors” in Section 1).
Driver’s responsibility 
when parking or stopping 
the vehicle
Never leave an animal, 
child or adult who is not self-suffi-
cient alone on your vehicle, even for 
a short time.
They may pose a risk to themselves 
or to others by starting the engine, 
activating equipment such as the 
electric windows or by locking the 
doors.
Also, in hot and/or sunny weather, 
please remember that the tempera-
ture inside the passenger compart-
ment increases very quickly.

INJURY.

CHILD SAFETY: deactivating/activating the front passenger air bag (3/3)
Activating the front 
passenger air bags

the front passenger seat to ensure the 
protection of the front passenger in the 
event of an impact.

vated when the vehicle is 
stationary.
If it is interfered with when the vehi-
cle is being driven, indicator lights

MAINTENANCE AND ANTIPOLLUTION ADVICE 
Your vehicle complies with criteria for 
recycling and recovering vehicles at the 
end of their service life which will come 
into force in 2015.
Some parts of your vehicle have there-
fore been designed to facilitate future 
recycling.
These parts are easy to remove so 
that they can be recovered and repro-
cessed by recycling companies.
By virtue of its design, moderate fuel 
consumption and initial settings, your 
vehicle also conforms to current anti-
pollution regulations. The manufactu-
rer is actively striving to reduce pollu-
tant exhaust gas emissions and to save 
energy. But the fuel consumption of 
your vehicle and the level of pollutant 
exhaust gas emissions are also your 
responsibility. Ensure that it is maintai-
ned and used correctly.
Maintenance
It is important to remember that fai-
lure to respect antipollution regulations 
could lead to legal action being taken 
against the vehicle owner.In addition, replacing engine, fuel 
supply system and exhaust compo-
nents with parts other than those origi-
nally recommended by the manufac-
turer may alter your vehicle so that it 
no longer complies with anti-pollution 
regulations.
Have your vehicle adjusted and 
checked by an authorised dealer, in ac-
cordance with the instructions given in 
your maintenance schedule: they will 
have all the equipment necessary for 
ensuring that your vehicle is maintained 
to its original standard.
Engine adjustments
– Spark plugs:
 for optimum condi-
tions of use, output and performance 
the specifications laid down by our 
Design Department must be strictly 
applied.
  If the spark plugs have to be changed,  use the make, type and gap specified 
for your vehicle’s engine. Contact an 
authorised dealer for this.
–  Air filter, fuel filter:  a choked ele-
ment will reduce efficiency. It must 
be replaced.
–  Ignition and idle speed:  no adjust-
ment is needed.
Exhaust gas monitoring 
system
The exhaust gas monitoring system will 
detect any operating faults in the vehi-
cle’s antipollution system.
If this system malfunctions, toxic subs-
tances may be released into the atmos-
phere or damage may occur.
ÄThis warning light on the in-
strument panel will indicate if 
there are any faults in the system:
This lights up when the ignition is 
switched on and goes out when the 
engine is started.
–  If it lights up continuously, consult an  approved Dealer as soon as possi-
ble;
–  if it flashes, reduce the engine speed  until the light stops flashing. Contact 
an authorised dealer as soon as pos-
sible.
